GPCRs and fibroblast heterogeneity in fibroblast‐associated diseases

open access: yesThe FASEB Journal, 2023
AbstractG protein‐coupled receptors (GPCRs) are the largest and most diverse class of signaling receptors. GPCRs regulate many functions in the human body and have earned the title of “most targeted receptors”. About one‐third of the commercially available drugs for various diseases target the GPCRs.

Fibroblastic sarcomas of the mediastinum [PDF]

open access: yesMediastinum, 2020
Primary mediastinal fibroblastic sarcomas constitute a rare, heterogeneous group of neoplasms, mainly including solitary fibrous tumor (SFT) (benign and malignant), low grade fibromyxoid sarcoma (LGFMS), adult fibrosarcoma (FS), myxofibrosarcoma, sclerosing epithelioid FS, etc. Although morphologically diverse, they frequently have similar clinical and

Photocrosslinkable Trehalose Derivatives Carrying Mesogenic Groups: Synthesis, Characterization, and in Vitro Evaluation for Fibroblast Attachment

open access: yesJournal of Functional Biomaterials, 2016
A photocrosslinkable trehalose derivative carrying mesogenic groups was synthesized by esterification reactions. The derivative (TC-HBPHA) was synthesized by the reaction of partially cinnamoyl-modified trehalose (TC4) with 4-(4-hexyloxybenzoyloxy ...

Regulatory T Cells in Chronic Heart Failure

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2021
Heart failure is a global problem with high hospitalization and mortality rates. Inflammation and immune dysfunction are involved in this disease. Owing to their unique function, regulatory T cells (Tregs) have reacquired attention recently.

Identification of Compounds With Glucocorticoid Sparing Effects on Suppression of Chemokine and Cytokine Production by Rheumatoid Arthritis Fibroblast-Like Synoviocytes

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2020
In recent years target based drug discovery has expanded our therapeutic armamentarium in the treatment of inflammatory and autoimmune diseases. Despite these advances and adverse effects, glucocorticoids remain reliable agents that are used in many of ...

The Role of the Inflammasome in Heart Failure

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2021
Inflammation promotes the development of heart failure (HF). The inflammasome is a multimeric protein complex that plays an essential role in the innate immune response by triggering the cleavage and activation of the proinflammatory cytokines ...

“There will be blood” from fibroblasts [PDF]

open access: yesCell Cycle, 2013
The blood system is continuously replenished from a rare population of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) that balance self-renewal and differentiation.1 It is believed that HSCs emerge during embryog...

Stromal Fibroblasts Counteract the Caveolin-1-Dependent Radiation Response of LNCaP Prostate Carcinoma Cells

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2022
In prostate cancer (PCa), a characteristic stromal–epithelial redistribution of the membrane protein caveolin 1 (CAV1) occurs upon tumor progression, where a gain of CAV1 in the malignant epithelial cells is accompanied by a loss of CAV1 in the tumor ...

Deciphering cancer fibroblasts [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Medicine, 2018
In this issue of JEM, Raz et al. (https://doi.org/10.1084/jem.20180818) identify a subset of bone marrow–derived cells that uniquely promotes breast cancer angiogenesis and tumor growth. The existence of functional heterogeneity among stromal populations motivates further fundamental and therapeutic inquiries.

Origins of Cardiac Fibroblasts [PDF]

open access: yesCirculation Research, 2010
Cardiac fibroblasts play a critical role in maintenance of normal cardiac function. They are indispensable for damage control and tissue remodeling on myocardial injury and principal mediators of pathological cardiac remodeling and fibrosis. Despite their manyfold functions, cardiac fibroblasts remain poorly characterized in molecular terms.
