Kallikrein-related peptidase 6 regulates epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition and serves as prognostic biomarker for head and neck squamous cell carcinoma patients [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Background: Dysregulated expression of Kallikrein-related peptidase 6 (KLK6) is a common feature for many human malignancies and numerous studies evaluated KLK6 as a promising biomarker for early diagnosis or unfavorable prognosis.

In silico analyses and global transcriptional profiling reveal novel putative targets for Pea3 transcription factor related to its function in neurons.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
Pea3 transcription factor belongs to the PEA3 subfamily within the ETS domain transcription factor superfamily, and has been largely studied in relation to its role in breast cancer metastasis. Nonetheless, Pea3 plays a role not only in breast tumor, but

Epidermal ADAM17 maintains the skin barrier by regulating EGFR ligand-dependent terminal keratinocyte differentiation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
ADAM17 (a disintegrin and metalloproteinase 17) is ubiquitously expressed and cleaves membrane proteins, such as epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) ligands, l-selectin, and TNF, from the cell surface, thus regulating responses to tissue injury and ...

Divergent Paths: A Comprehensive Review of Mechanisms and Clinical Implications in Atopic Dermatitis and Psoriasis

open access: yesAllergy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Atopic dermatitis and psoriasis are two common cutaneous chronic inflammatory diseases. Although they share similar immunological mechanisms, their clinical implications in the patient are different. This review compares both diseases from different points of view such as genetics, natural history, triggers of disease, and skin barrier defects

Contact Activation Is Alleviated by Testosterone Replacement Therapy in Klinefelter Syndrome: Evidence of Hormonal and Metabolic Modulation

open access: yesAndrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Klinefelter syndrome is associated with a markedly increased risk of venous thrombosis. While hypogonadism and metabolic dysfunction are known contributors, the role of the contact activation system in Klinefelter syndrome remains unexplored.

Pharmacologic Targets and Prototype Therapeutics in the Kallikrein-Kinin System: Bradykinin Receptor Agonists or Antagonists

open access: yesThe Scientific World Journal, 2006
The kallikrein-kinin system (KKS) is a complex system produced in various organs. This system includes kininogen (precursor for kinin), kallikreins, and pharmacologically active bradykinin (BK), which is considered to be proinflammatory and/or ...

Specificity Profiling of Seven Human Tissue Kallikreins Reveals Individual Subsite Preferences*

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2006
Human tissue kallikreins (hKs) form a family of 15 closely related (chymo)trypsin-like serine proteinases. These tissue kallikreins are expressed in a wide range of tissues including the central nervous system, the salivary gland, and endocrine-regulated
