HIF2α-dependent Dock4/Rac1-signaling regulates formation of adherens junctions and cell polarity in normoxia

open access: yesScientific Reports
Hypoxia-inducible factors (HIF) 1 and 2 regulate similar but distinct sets of target genes. Although HIFs are best known for their roles in mediating the hypoxia response accumulating evidence suggests that under certain conditions HIFs, particularly ...

Analysis of cancer cell line and tissue RNA sequencing data reveals an essential and dark matrisome

open access: yesMatrix Biology Plus
Extracellular matrix remodeling is a hallmark of tissue development, homeostasis, and disease. The processes that mediate remodeling, and the consequences of such, are the topic of extensive focus in biomedical research.

Measurement of collagen synthesis by cells grown under different mechanical stimuli [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
INTRODUCTION: The use of scaffolds in tissue engineering is essential to provide cells with a matrix for cell proliferation and differentiation resulting in tissue regeneration.

Biophysical regulation of stem cell behavior within the niche. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Stem cells reside within most tissues throughout the lifetimes of mammalian organisms. To maintain their capacities for division and differentiation and thereby build, maintain, and regenerate organ structure and function, these cells require extensive ...

RIPK4 function interferes with melanoma cell adhesion and metastasis

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
RIPK4 promotes melanoma growth and spread. RIPK4 levels increase as skin lesions progress to melanoma. CRISPR/Cas9‐mediated deletion of RIPK4 causes melanoma cells to form less compact spheroids, reduces their migratory and invasive abilities and limits tumour growth and dissemination in mouse models.

Prognostic value of NT-proANP levels on major cardiovascular outcomes in a 31-year follow-up study depends on baseline morbidity

open access: yesScientific Reports
In subjects with cardiovascular disease (CVD), higher N-terminal proatrial natriuretic peptide (NT-proANP) are associated with major cardiovascular outcomes, while in subjects without CVDs longitudinal data is largely lacking. Our aim was to assess cross-

COMP–PMEPA1 axis promotes epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition in breast cancer cells

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study reveals that cartilage oligomeric matrix protein (COMP) promotes epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition (EMT) in breast cancer. We identify PMEPA1 (protein TMEPAI) as a novel COMP‐binding partner that mediates EMT via binding to the TSP domains of COMP, establishing the COMP–PMEPA1 axis as a key EMT driver in breast cancer.

α3 Chains of type V collagen regulate breast tumour growth via glypican-1

open access: yesNature Communications, 2017
Collagen has a role in cancer and is particularly important for breast cancer. Here the authors show that the expression of α3 type V collagen and one of its receptors- glipican-1- in the same cell, contributes to a deregulated growth of breast cancer ...

Engineered extracellular vesicles enriched with the miR‐214/199a cluster enhance the efficacy of chemotherapy in ovarian cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Loss of the miR‐214/199a cluster is associated with recurrence in ovarian cancer. Engineered small extracellular vesicles (m214‐sEVs) elevate miR‐214‐3p/miR‐199a‐5p in tumor cells, suppress β‐catenin, TLR4, and YKT6 signaling, reprogram tumor‐derived sEV cargo, reduce chemoresistance and migration, and enhance carboplatin efficacy and survival in ...

Regulation of pituitary hormones and cell proliferation by components of the extracellular matrix

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2005
The extracellular matrix is a three-dimensional network of proteins, glycosaminoglycans and other macromolecules. It has a structural support function as well as a role in cell adhesion, migration, proliferation, differentiation, and survival.
