Enhanced Expression of Integrin αvβ3 Induced by TGF-β Is Required for the Enhancing Effect of Fibroblast Growth Factor 1 (FGF1) in TGF-β-Induced Epithelial-Mesenchymal Transition (EMT) in Mammary Epithelial Cells. [PDF]
Epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) plays a critical role in cancer metastasis, and is regulated by growth factors such as transforming growth factor β (TGF-β) and fibroblast growth factors (FGF) secreted from the stromal and tumor cells. However,

β1 integrin signaling maintains human epithelial progenitor cell survival in situ and controls proliferation, apoptosis and migration of their progeny. [PDF]
β1 integrin regulates multiple epithelial cell functions by connecting cells with the extracellular matrix (ECM). While β1 integrin-mediated signaling in murine epithelial stem cells is well-studied, its role in human adult epithelial progenitor cells ...

Effective treatment of HER2-amplified breast cancer by targeting HER3 and β1 integrin [PDF]
The central role of HER2 as the disease driver and HER3 as its essential partner has made them rational targets for the treatment of HER2-amplifed breast cancers, and there is considerable interest in developing highly effective treatment regimens for this disease that consist of targeted therapies alone.

Regulation of Renin Expression by Β1-Integrin in As4.1 Juxtaglomerular Line Cells
(1) Background: Renal dysfunction and hypertension are mutually aggravating factors; however, the details of their interaction remain unclear. In a study using renal tissue from diabetic rats, we found that β1-integrin, a cell-substrate adhesion molecule,

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

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

Decreased integrin β1 in lipid raft inhibits proliferation and migration of HPS rat serum-induced PMVECs [PDF]
Objective To investigate the effects of integrin β1 within lipid raft on PMVECs. Methods PMVECs were divided into four groups: control group; HPS group: HPS; group and MβCD group: the cells were pretreated with 0.01 mol/L MβCD for 1 hour, and
