Membranous Overexpression of Fibronectin Predicts Microvascular Invasion and Poor Survival Outcomes in Patients with Hepatocellular Carcinoma [PDF]

Gut and Liver
Background/Aims: Fibronectin (FN) has recently been identified as being overexpressed in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and deemed a promising biomarker of vascular invasion.

The FnBPA from methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus promoted development of oral squamous cell carcinoma

Journal of Oral Microbiology, 2022
Background Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is the most common tumor in the oral cavity. Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) were highly detected in OSCC patients; however, the interactions and mechanisms between drug-resistant bacteria

Fibronectin binding to von Willebrand factor occurs via the A1 domain

Research and Practice in Thrombosis and Haemostasis, 2021
Background Collagen interactions with von Willebrand factor (VWF) perform an important role in initiation of hemostasis. Objectives We hypothesized that in addition to collagen, other extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins such as fibronectin can bind VWF ...

Fibronectin glomerulopathy [PDF]

Clinical Kidney Journal, 2013
Fibronectin glomerulopathy occurs between the second and fifth decades of life in most patients, and it is known to be slowly progressive with mild proteinuria leading to kidney failure. The case of a 78-year-old woman with a rapid course of nephrotic syndrome due to fibronectin glomerulopathy is reported.

Large‐scale heparin‐based bind‐and‐elute chromatography identifies two biologically distinct populations of extracellular vesicles

Journal of Extracellular Vesicles, 2023
Purifying extracellular vesicles (EVs) has been challenging because EVs are heterogeneous in cargo yet share similar sizes and densities. Most surface marker‐based affinity separation methods are limited to research or diagnostic scales.

The evolution of tenascins and fibronectin [PDF]

Cell Adhesion & Migration, 2015
Tenascins are extracellular matrix glycoproteins that act both as integrin ligands and as modifiers of fibronectin-integrin interactions to regulate cell adhesion, migration, proliferation and differentiation. In tetrapods, both tenascins and fibronectin bind to integrins via RGD and LDV-type tripeptide motifs found in exposed loops in their ...
