Investigations into the stability of growth factor induced-vasculature and the effects of synthetic biomaterials on heart remodelling after myocardial infarction

open access: yes, 2011
This work was based on the hypothesis that optimization of growth factor delivery rate and duration, combined with a biomaterial scaffold, could lead to an improved strategy for therapeutic neovascularization.

Endothelin-1 promotes myofibroblast induction through the ETA receptor via a rac/phosphoinositide 3-kinase/akt-dependent pathway and is essential for the enhanced contractile phenotype of fibrotic fibroblasts

open access: yes, 2004
The endothelins are a family of endothelium-derived peptides that possess a variety of functions, including vasoconstriction. Endothelin-1 (ET-1) is up-regulated during tissue repair and promotes myofibroblast contraction and migration, hence ...

Autocrine Fibroblast Growth Factor Receptor 1 Signaling Activates Lactate Dehydrogenase A-Aerobic Glycolysis for Advanced Human Prostate Tumor Growth

open access: yesProstate Cancer
Conclusion: Our data indicate autocrine FGF/FGFR1 signaling regulates aerobic glycolysis in PCa DU145 cells via LDHA, suggesting the potential of targeting FGFs/FGFRs-LDHA for the management of advanced PCa.

Engineering mammalian cells for detection and treatment of cardiac injury

open access: yesMolecular Systems Biology
Early detection of myocardial abnormalities or other ischemic heart diseases is critical for effective treatment. Here, we aimed to engineer a cell-based system to sense cardiac troponin I (cTnI), an early marker of acute myocardial infarction (AMI), and

Inhibition of activated fibroblast growth factor receptor 2 in endometrial cancer cells induces cell death despite PTEN abrogation

open access: yes, 2008
KRAS activation and PTEN inactivation are frequent events in endometrial tumorigenesis, occurring in 10% to 30% and 26% to 80% of endometrial cancers, respectively.

Control of cell division in the adult brain by heparan sulfates in fractones and vascular basement membranes

open access: yes, 2010
Regulation of cell division in adult tissues and organs requires the coordination of growth factors at the surface of potentially-dividing cells in specific anatomic loci named germinal niches.
