Evaluation of the Correlation between Focal Adhesion Kinase Phosphorylation and Cell Adhesion Force Using “DEP” Technology

open access: yesSensors, 2012
Dielectrophoresis (DEP) is the phenomenon in which a particle, such as a living cell, is polarized and moved by electrical gravity in a non-uniform electric field.

Vascular normalization confers an endothelial immune suppressive gene expression profile

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
We compare the immunoregulatory gene expression profiles of healthy endothelial cells or endothelial cells from tumors having a normalized endothelium (low leakage) with that of wild‐type tumors (high leakage) and observe that the wild‐type tumor endothelium exhibits immunostimulatory properties.

Immunostaining for phosphorylated Focal Adhesion Kinase.

open access: yes, 2013
MSCs were seeded onto glass coverslips coated with electrospun nanofibers, or with FBS as a control. After 5 hours, cells were fixed and stained for phosphorylated Focal Adhesion Kinase (red). Cells were counterstained with DAPI to show cell nuclei (blue)

Inhibition of focal adhesion kinase (FAK) signaling in focal adhesions decreases cell motility and proliferation. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
It has been proposed that the focal adhesion kinase (FAK) mediates focal adhesion formation through tyrosine phosphorylation during cell adhesion. We investigated the role of FAK in focal adhesion structure and function.

An outer membrane vesicle‐associated two‐track model for enterotoxigenic Bacteroides fragilis oncogenesis

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Enterotoxigenic Bacteroides fragilis is a gut bacterium linked to bowel cancer. We propose that its toxin acts along two routes: at the cell surface, cutting the adhesion protein E‐cadherin and triggering inflammation; and inside the cell, delivered by bacterial vesicles, switching on NOD1 and cancer stem cell programs.

Increased chemotactic migration and growth in heparanase-overexpressing human U251n glioma cells

open access: yesJournal of Experimental & Clinical Cancer Research, 2008
Heparanase is an endoglycosidase that degrades heparan sulfate, the main polysaccharide constituent of the extracellular matrix (ECM) and basement membrane.

In Vitro Phosphorylation of the Focal Adhesion Targeting Domain of Focal Adhesion Kinase by Src Kinase [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Focal adhesion kinase (FAK), a key regulator of cell adhesion and migration, is overexpressed in many types of cancer. The C-terminal focal adhesion targeting (FAT) domain of FAK is necessary for proper localization of FAK to focal adhesions and ...

Aquaporin‐3 and aquaporin‐5 impact the development of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma spheroids

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Schematic representation of the role of aquaporin‐3 (AQP3) and aquaporin‐5 (AQP5) in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). Both proteins are upregulated in PDAC and are associated with tumor progression and metastatic potential. Silencing AQP3 or AQP5 in PDAC spheroids results in decreased diameter, area, and overall growth, underscoring their key ...

Stretch regulated surface roughness controls macrophage inflammatory polarization through adhesion–chromatin coupling

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology
IntroductionMacrophages are early responders to biomaterial interfaces, but the specific role of surface roughness in regulating macrophage inflammatory phenotypes remains difficult to distinguish from the effects of substrate stiffness and other ...
