PSPC1 Potentiates IGF1R Expression to Augment Cell Adhesion and Motility

Cells, 2020
Paraspeckle protein 1 (PSPC1) overexpression in cancers is known to be the pro-metastatic switch of tumor progression associated with poor prognosis of cancer patients.

Interactions of the Protein-tyrosine Phosphatase-α with the Focal Adhesion Targeting Domain of Focal Adhesion Kinase Are Involved in Interleukin-1 Signaling in Fibroblasts [PDF]

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2014
Interleukin-1 (IL-1) signaling in fibroblasts is mediated through focal adhesions, organelles that are enriched with adaptor and cytoskeletal proteins that regulate signal transduction. We examined interactions of the focal adhesion kinase (FAK) with protein-tyrosine phosphatase-α (PTP-α) in IL-1 signaling.

Syndecan-4/PAR-3 signaling regulates focal adhesion dynamics in mesenchymal cells

Cell Communication and Signaling, 2020
Background Syndecans regulate cell migration thus having key roles in scarring and wound healing processes. Our previous results have shown that Thy-1/CD90 can engage both αvβ3 integrin and Syndecan-4 expressed on the surface of astrocytes to induce cell

Neuronal migration is mediated by inositol hexakisphosphate kinase 1 via α-actinin and focal adhesion kinase [PDF]

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2017
Significance Inositol hexakisphosphate kinase 1 (IP6K1) regulates numerous physiological functions. We describe a role of IP6K1 in neural development, because its deletion results in defects in neuronal migration and brain malformation. IP6K1 physiologically interacts with α-actinin and localizes to focal adhesions.

Glutathione peroxidase-1 regulates adhesion and metastasis of triple-negative breast cancer cells via FAK signaling

Redox Biology, 2020
Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) cells, which do not express genes for estrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor (PR), and Her2/neu, develop highly aggressive and metastatic tumors resistant to chemo- and hormonal therapies.

Focal adhesion kinase confers lenvatinib resistance in hepatocellular carcinoma via the regulation of lysine‐deficient kinase 1

Molecular Carcinogenesis, 2023
AbstractLenvatinib is a clinically effective multikinase inhibitor approved for first‐line therapy of advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Although resistance against lenvatinib often emerges and limits its antitumor activity, the underlying molecular mechanisms involved in endogenous and acquired resistance remain elusive.

Flotillins Regulate Focal Adhesions by Interacting with α-Actinin and by Influencing the Activation of Focal Adhesion Kinase

Cells, 2018
Cell–matrix adhesion and cell migration are physiologically important processes that also play a major role in cancer spreading. In cultured cells, matrix adhesion depends on integrin-containing contacts such as focal adhesions. Flotillin-1 and flotillin-

Integrative Ligand-Based Pharmacophore Modeling, Virtual Screening, and Molecular Docking Simulation Approaches Identified Potential Lead Compounds against Pancreatic Cancer by Targeting FAK1

Pharmaceuticals, 2023
Pancreatic cancer is a very deadly disease with a 5-year survival rate, making it one of the leading causes of cancer-related deaths globally. Focal adhesion kinase 1 (FAK1) is a ubiquitously expressed protein in pancreatic cancer. FAK, a tyrosine kinase

Thrombospondin-1 induces activation of focal adhesion kinase in vascular smooth muscle cells [PDF]

Journal of Vascular Surgery, 1999
Vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) proliferation and migration are important events in the development of intimal hyperplasia. Thrombospondin-1 (TSP-1), an extracellular matrix protein present in intimal hyperplastic lesions, has been shown to stimulate VSMC proliferation and migration.

Netrin‐1 Preserves Blood‐Brain Barrier Integrity Through Deleted in Colorectal Cancer/Focal Adhesion Kinase/RhoA Signaling Pathway Following Subarachnoid Hemorrhage in Rats

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2017
Background Netrin‐1 (NTN‐1) has been established to be a novel intrinsic regulator of blood‐brain barrier (BBB) maintenance. This study was carried out to investigate the potential roles of exogenous NTN‐1 in preserving BBB integrity after experimental ...
