Extracellular matrix and proteolysis: mechanisms driving irreversible changes and shaping cell behavior

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Irreversible ECM proteolysis by remodeling enzymes shapes development, homeostasis, and disease. ECM‐degrading proteases display cell specificity and are governed by shared mechanisms, exhibiting functional redundancy in generating matrikines, growth factors, and cytokines.

A guide to the types, structures, and multifaceted functions of matrix metalloproteinases in cancer

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) orchestrate cancer progression and metastasis through proteolytic and non‐proteolytic actions. By remodeling the tumor microenvironment, enhancing growth factor availability, and modulating cell behavior, MMPs promote proliferation, migration or invasion, and epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition. Alongside extracellular

Behind the scenes: how the EMILIN/Multimerin family shapes the cancer landscape

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
The EMILIN/Multimerin family members regulate key hallmarks of cancer—including apoptosis, angiogenesis, metastasis, and tumor microenvironment remodeling. As indicated, their function in immune evasion, drug resistance, and metabolic reprogramming remains largely unexplored.

Galactomyces ferment filtrate upregulates anchoring junctions and stabilizes actin to maintain the Young's modulus of skin cells in vitro

International Journal of Cosmetic Science, EarlyView.
Ageing causes actin cytoskeleton disorganization, a reduction in cellular components associated with the actin cytoskeleton and focal adhesions, and a reduction in skin firmness. Galactomyces ferment filtrate boosts actin stability, increases expression of anchoring junction proteins, including focal adhesions and protects against loss of firmness ...

Bacterial porphyrins in healthy skin: Microbiota components impact melanogenesis and age‐related processes leading to Porphyr'ageing

International Journal of Cosmetic Science, EarlyView.
Porphyrins, previously linked only to acne inflammation, are now implicated in skin ageing. Their presence correlates with increased melanin, inflammation, and oxidative stress, contributing to premature ageing signs. This study introduces the concept of “Porphyr'ageing,” highlighting the detrimental effects of bacterial metabolites on skin health and ...
