Towards definition of an ECM parts list: An advance on GO categories [PDF]

, 2012
Those of us interested in the extracellular matrix (ECM) are faced with significant challenges of definition. ECM proteins are large, complex and assembled into crosslinked insoluble matrices.

Matrix-immobilized BMP-2 on microcontact printed fibronectin as in vitro tool to study BMP-mediated signaling and cell migration

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2015
During development, bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) exert important functions in several tissues by regulating signaling for cell differentiation and migration. In vivo the extracellular matrix (ECM) not only provides a support for adherent cells, but

The emerging roles of ribosome biogenesis in craniofacial development. [PDF]

, 2014
Neural crest cells (NCCs) are a transient, migratory cell population, which originates during neurulation at the neural folds and contributes to the majority of tissues, including the mesenchymal structures of the craniofacial skeleton.

Central giant cell granuloma of the jaws and giant cell tumor of long bones: an immunohistochemical comparative study

Journal of Applied Oral Science, 2007
OBJECTIVE: This study investigated whether some components of the extracellular matrix and CD68 expression may drive the differences between the central giant cell granuloma (CGCG) of the jaws and giant cell tumor (GCT) of long bones, which present ...

Interaction between extracellular matrix molecules and microbial pathogens: evidence for the missing link in autoimmunity with rheumatoid arthritis as a disease model. [PDF]

, 2014
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune disease characterized by inflammation followed by tissue rebuilding or fibrosis. A failure by the body to regulate inflammation effectively is one of the hallmarks of RA.

The evolution of metazoan extracellular matrix [PDF]

, 2011
The modular domain structure of extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins and their genes has allowed extensive exon/domain shuffling during evolution to generate hundreds of ECM proteins.

CD9 controls integrin α5β1-mediated cell adhesion by modulating its association with the metalloproteinase ADAM17 [PDF]

, 2018
Integrin α5β1 is a crucial adhesion molecule that mediates the adherence of many cell types to the extracellular matrix through recognition of its classic ligand fibronectin as well as to other cells through binding to an alternative counter-receptor ...
