Myosin-X and talin modulate integrin activity at filopodia tips

Cell Reports, 2021
Summary: Filopodia assemble unique integrin-adhesion complexes to sense the extracellular matrix. However, the mechanisms of integrin regulation in filopodia are poorly defined.

N-glycosylation of ß4 integrin controls the adhesion and motility of keratinocytes. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2011
α6ß4 integrin is an essential component of hemidesmosomes and modulates cell migration in wound healing and cancer invasion. To elucidate the role of N-glycosylation on ß4 integrin, we investigated keratinocyte adhesion and migration through the re ...

Tubulointerstitial de novo expression of the α8 integrin chain in a rodent model of renal fibrosis--a potential target for anti-fibrotic therapy? [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
In the normal kidney, the α8 integrin chain is expressed only on mesangial cells and vascular smooth muscle cells. α8 integrin ligates several matrix molecules including fibronectin, osteopontin and fibrillin-1.

Myeloid Poldip2 Contributes to the Development of Pulmonary Inflammation by Regulating Neutrophil Adhesion in a Murine Model of Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2022
Background Lung injury, a severe adverse outcome of lipopolysaccharide‐induced acute respiratory distress syndrome, is attributed to excessive neutrophil recruitment and effector response.

Calreticulin Regulates β1-Integrin mRNA Stability in PC-3 Prostate Cancer Cells

Biomedicines, 2022
Prostate cancer (PCa) is the major cause of cancer-related death among aging men worldwide. Recent studies have suggested that calreticulin (CRT), a multifunctional chaperon protein, may play an important role in the regulation of PCa tumorigenesis and ...

Targeting of the COX-2/PGE2 axis enhances the antitumor activity of T7 peptide in vitro and in vivo

Drug Delivery, 2021
T7 peptide is considered as an antiangiogenic polypeptide. The presents study aimed to further detect the antiangiogenic mechanisms of T7 peptide and determine whether combining T7 peptide and meloxicam (COX-2/PGE2 specific inhibitor) could offer a ...

Angiogenesis Inhibition by a Short 13 Amino Acid Peptide Sequence of Tetrastatin, the α4(IV) NC1 Domain of Collagen IV

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2020
Angiogenesis is defined as the formation of new capillaries by sprouting from the pre-existing microvasculature. It occurs in physiological and pathological processes particularly in tumor growth and metastasis.

Sharpin suppresses β1-integrin activation by complexing with the β1 tail and kindlin-1

Cell Communication and Signaling, 2019
Background Previously sharpin has been identified as an endogenous inhibitor of β1-integrin activation by directly binding to a conserved region in the cytoplasmic tails (CTs) of the integrin β1-associated α subunits. Methods Here we employed biochemical
