The heterodimeric amino acid transporters (HAT) of the SLC7/SLC3 family: A structure−function relationships and relevance to human pathology

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Heterodimeric amino acid transporters consist of SLC7 and SLC3 family proteins arranged in a conserved structural organization. They regulate nutrient transport across cell membranes, supporting essential cellular functions. These transporters also contribute to xenobiotic/drug uptake and distribution.

The role of A-Type lamins and LAP2a in cellular ageing of human fibroblasts in vitro [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Mutations in LMNA gene have been linked to a number of age-related tissue-specific diseases and premature ageing syndromes termed laminopathies. The finding that A- type lamins affect longevity and maintenance of a number of somatic tissues makes them ...

Thrombin Activates Ras-Creb/Atf-1 Signaling and Stimulates C-Fos, C-Jun, and C-Myc Expression in Human Gingival Fibroblasts

open access: yes, 2011
Background: Protease-activated receptors (PARs) can be stimulated by thrombin and other proteases generated by periodontal pathogens. Activation of PARs in gingival fibroblasts (GFs) can modulate wound healing and inflammatory responses in gingival ...

Mechanotransduction in fibroblasts [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Response to mechanical stress is important for tissue homeostasis, tissue architecture and muscle regeneration. All cells of an organism are subject to at least one of three types of mechanical stress: compression, shear stress or tension.

Metastatic niche shaped by host factors influences disseminated cancer cell fate

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Metastasis is shaped not only by cancer cells but also by the environments they encounter. This review explores how factors such as aging, diet, the microbiome, lifestyle, and environmental exposures remodel organ‐specific niches in the lung, liver, bone, and brain, influencing where metastatic cells survive, remain dormant, or grow, and ultimately ...

Inducible lineage-specific deletion of TβRII in fibroblasts defines a pivotal regulatory role during adult skin wound healing

open access: yes, 2009
Previous attempts to delete type II TGFβ receptor (TβRII) in fibroblasts have precluded examination of adult mice due to early mortality. We have selectively deleted TβRII postnatally in differentiated connective tissue fibroblasts using an inducible Cre-

microRNA in cellular senescence [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Senescence is recognized as a permanent arrest of cell proliferation triggered by telomere shortening or various stresses. Senescence imposes a barrier to tumorigenesis and contributes to aging.

Neutralization of the PTX3/CD44 axis suppresses TGF‐β1 signaling in kidney fibrosis

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This study investigates how the PTX3/CD44 axis promotes kidney fibrosis by activating TGF‐β1 signaling. We demonstrate that the neutralizing antibody WHC‐001 effectively inhibits this pathway, suppressing myofibroblast activation and partial epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT).

Regulation of mucosal inflammation by fibroblasts [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Acute inflammation in the bowel, a response of the immune system to infections or trauma, is probably a frequent but localized event, but when the barrier is repaired and the infection cleared, it is quickly followed by wound healing and resolution ...
