Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) is the most aggressive subtype in breast tumors. When re‐analyzing TCGA breast cancer dataset, we found cell adhesion molecules are highly enriched in differentially expressed genes in TNBC samples, among which Focal ...

SIPA1 boosts migration and proliferation, and blocks apoptosis of glioma by activating the phosphorylation of the FAK signaling pathway [PDF]
Background: We aimed to analyze the regulatory effects of SIPA1 (signal-induced proliferation-associated protein 1) on glioma progression and the dominant signaling pathway.

Wnt5b integrates Fak1a to mediate gastrulation cell movements via Rac1 and Cdc42 [PDF]
Focal adhesion kinase (FAK) mediates vital cellular pathways during development. Despite its necessity, how FAK regulates and integrates with other signals during early embryogenesis remains poorly understood.

LRG1 Is Involved in the Progression of Ovarian Cancer via Modulating FAK/AKT Signaling Pathway
Background: Rapid progression and early metastasis remain the main cause of high mortality in epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) patients. The objective of this study was to explore the mechanisms of EOC progression and detect the function of leucine-rich ...

Roles of non-receptor tyrosine kinases in pathogenesis and treatment of depression [PDF]
Major depressive disorder is a chronic psychiatric disease with a high prevalence. Brain mechanisms for depression at cellular and molecular levels are far from clear. Increasing evidence from clinical and preclinical studies reveals critical roles of

FAK-Dependent Cell Motility and Cell Elongation
Fibroblastic cells show specific substrate selectivity for typical cell−substrate adhesion. However, focal adhesion kinase (FAK) contributes to controlling the regulation of orientation and polarity.

Cell contractility and focal adhesion kinase control circumferential arterial stiffness
Arterial stiffening is a hallmark of aging and cardiovascular disease. While it is well established that vascular smooth muscle cells (SMCs) contribute to arterial stiffness by synthesizing and remodeling the arterial extracellular matrix, the direct ...

Focal adhesion kinase (FAK) is highly expressed in a variety of human cancers and is a target for cancer therapy. Since FAK kinase inhibitors only block the kinase activity of FAK, they are not highly effective in clinical trials. FAK also functions as a
