Switch from alpha v beta 5 to alpha v beta 6 integrin expression protects squamous cell carcinomas from anoikis

open access: yes, 2004
Stratified squamous epithelia express the alphavbeta5 integrin, but in squamous cell carcinomas (SCCs) there is down-regulation of alphavbeta5 and up-regulation of alphavbeta6.

Engineering of Glioblastoma‐Derived Biomimetic Vesicles and Their Structural and Molecular Features

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Biomimetic nanosystems and vesicles have arisen as a novel approach to design vesicular transport systems with diverse therapeutic potential. The ‘biomimetic’ strategy involves the integration of cell membrane components into lipid bilayers, conferring them with biological properties originating from the cell of origin. Until now, most studies

Novel functions for integrin-associated proteins revealed by analysis of myofibril attachment in Drosophila

open access: yeseLife, 2018
We use the myotendinous junction of Drosophila flight muscles to explore why many integrin associated proteins (IAPs) are needed and how their function is coordinated.

Adaptation to suspension growth: analysing the surface of suspension growth adapted Chinese hamster ovary cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Many bio-pharmaceutical production processes are based upon the use of mammalian cell lines, such as Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells, capable of proliferation as single cells in suspension in a synthetic environment.

Integrin-Linked Kinase Activity Modulates the Pro-Metastatic Behavior of Ovarian Cancer Cells.

open access: yes, 2016
Epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) is the most fatal gynecologic cancer in the U.S.,resulting in >14,000 deaths/year. Most women are diagnosed at late stage with widely disseminated intra-peritoneal metastatic disease,resulting in a 5-year survival rate of

Chamber‐Specific Decellularized Extracellular Matrices Differentially Modulate Cardiomyocyte Subtypes to Drive Engineered Heart Tissue Development and Function

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Chamber‐specific decellularized extracellular matrices (ECMs) were developed, preserving native proteomic profiles of ventricular and atrial myocardium. These innate biochemical cues differentially modulate cardiomyocyte subtypes to drive engineered heart tissue development and function, highlighting the importance of incorporating regional ECM cues in

Packed Hydrogel Microfibers as Scaffolds Supporting Dynamic Cellular Behavior and Biomaterial Inks in 3D Printing

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Packed hydrogel microfiber (PHM) materials consist of flexible and high aspect ratio hydrogel components that, as a bulk material, are simultaneously mechanically robust and dynamic. Cells cultured in or on PHM scaffolds can be influenced by topographical cues or interact with a dynamic environment that permits cell spreading and multicellular ...

Characterization of human mesenchymal stem cells by the appearance of integrins and functional analysis of collagen I-binding integrins [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Introduction: Human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSC) are easily obtainable from bone mar-row and possess the ability to differentiate into osteoblasts. Therefore, they have been sug-gested as a suitable source for bone regeneration. HMSC are equipped with a

Flash Assembloids: A Rapid Biofabrication of a Platform for Modeling Early Glioblastoma Invasion at the Glioblastoma–Brain Organoid Interfaces

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This study presents a bioengineered assembloid (ASM) system combining glioblastoma (GBM) cells in oxidized alginate (OA) microgels with dorsal organoids (DOs). This model simulates brain tumor‐host interactions, revealing enhanced GBM invasion, altered gene expression, and aggressive infiltration patterns, demonstrating ASM as a valuable platform for ...

Beta 1-integrin-c-Met cooperation reveals an inside-in survival signalling on autophagy-related endomembranes

open access: yes, 2020
Receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) and integrins cooperate to stimulate cell migration and tumour metastasis. Here we report that an integrin influences signalling of an RTK, c-Met, from inside the cell, to promote anchorage-independent cell survival. Thus,
