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 ...

Cell and Tissue Research, 2009 Integrins are cell adhesion receptors that are evolutionary old and that play important roles during developmental and pathological processes. The integrin family is composed of 24 alphabeta heterodimeric members that mediate the attachment of cells to the extracellular matrix (ECM) but that also take part in specialized cell-cell interactions.

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 ...

Nascent Adhesion Clustering: Integrin-Integrin and Integrin-Substrate Interactions [PDF]
Biophysica, 2022 Nascent adhesions (NAs) are a general precursor to the formation of focal adhesions (FAs) that provide a fundamental mechanism for cell adhesion that is, in turn, involved in cell proliferation, migration, and mechanotransduction. Nascent adhesions form when cells come into contact with substrates at all rigidities and generally involve the clustering ...

Journal of Cell Science, 2006 Cell adhesion, migration and the maintenance of cell polarity are all processes that depend on the correct targeting of integrins and the dynamic remodelling of integrin-containing adhesion sites. The importance of the endo/exocytic cycle of integrins as a key regulator of these functions is increasingly recognized.

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 ...
