Extracellular matrix proteins involved in pseudoislets formation [PDF]

Islets, 2009
Extracellular matrix proteins are known to mediate, through integrins, cell adhesion and are involved in a number of cellular processes, including insulin expression and secretion in pancreatic islets. We investigated whether expression of some extracellular matrix proteins were implied in islets-like structure formation, named pseudoislets.

A Lipocalin-Derived Peptide Modulating Fibroblasts and Extracellular Matrix Proteins [PDF]

Journal of Toxicology, 2012
Lipocalin family members have been implicated in development, regeneration, and pathological processes, but their roles are unclear. Interestingly, these proteins are found abundant in the venom of the Lonomia obliqua caterpillar. Lipocalins are β-barrel

The Role of Extracellular Matrix Proteins in Breast Cancer. [PDF]

J Clin Med, 2022
The extracellular matrix is a structure composed of many molecules, including fibrillar (types I, II, III, V, XI, XXIV, XXVII) and non-fibrillar collagens (mainly basement membrane collagens: types IV, VIII, X), non-collagenous glycoproteins (elastin, laminin, fibronectin, thrombospondin, tenascin, osteopontin, osteonectin, entactin, periostin ...

The interaction of Thrombospondins with extracellular matrix proteins [PDF]

Journal of Cell Communication and Signaling, 2009
The thrombospondins (TSPs) are a family of five matricellular proteins that appear to function as adapter molecules to guide extracellular matrix synthesis and tissue remodeling in a variety of normal and disease settings. Various TSPs have been shown to bind to fibronectin, laminin, matrilins, collagens and other extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins ...

Modification of extracellular matrix proteins by oxidants and electrophiles. [PDF]

Biochem Soc Trans
The extracellular matrix (ECM) is critical to biological architecture and determines cellular properties, function and activity. In many situations it is highly abundant, with collagens and elastin being some of the most abundant proteins in mammals.

Extracellular Matrix Proteins in Hemostasis and Thrombosis [PDF]

Cold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Biology, 2011
The adhesion and aggregation of platelets during hemostasis and thrombosis represents one of the best-understood examples of cell–matrix adhesion. Platelets are exposed to a wide variety of extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins once blood vessels are damaged and basement membranes and interstitial ECM are exposed.

The Functional Role of Extracellular Matrix Proteins in Cancer. [PDF]

Cancers (Basel), 2022
The extracellular matrix (ECM) is highly dynamic as it is constantly deposited, remodeled and degraded to maintain tissue homeostasis. ECM is a major structural component of the tumor microenvironment, and cancer development and progression require its extensive reorganization. Cancerized ECM is biochemically different in its composition and is stiffer
