MicroRNA-1185 Induces Endothelial Cell Apoptosis by Targeting UVRAG and KRIT1 [PDF]
Background/Aims: Atherosclerosis is a multifactorial chronic disease and is the main cause of death and impairment in the world. Endothelial injury and apoptosis play a crucial role in the onset and development of atherosclerosis. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) have

GERM-LINE/SOMATIC DNA COMPARISON IN SPORADIC PATIENTS WITH CEREBRAL CAVERNOUS MALFORMATIONS.
Cerebral cavernous malformations (CCMs) are benign tumours that affect brain capillaries. Although many cases remain asymptomatic, their incidence is steadily increasing.

KRIT1 loss of function causes a ROS-dependent upregulation of c-Jun [PDF]
Loss-of-function mutations in the KRIT1 gene (CCM1) have been associated with the pathogenesis of cerebral cavernous malformations (CCM), a major cerebrovascular disease.

Familial Cerebral Cavernous Malformations: Pathophysiology, Genetics, Biomarkers, and Treatment Perspectives. [PDF]
Cerebral cavernous malformations (CCMs) are vascular lesions in the brain caused by inherited genetic mutations in the CCM1/2/3 genes that disrupt normal blood vessel function. This work demonstrates that these mutations lead to endothelial dysfunction, inflammation, and iron accumulation, which can be detected by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and ...

KRIT1 in vascular biology and beyond. [PDF]
Abstract KRIT1 is a 75 kDa scaffolding protein which regulates endothelial cell phenotype by limiting the response to inflammatory stimuli and maintaining a quiescent and stable endothelial barrier. Loss-of-function mutations in KRIT1 lead to the development of cerebral cavernous malformations (CCM), a disease marked by the formation ...

Cerebral Cavernous Malformation: From Genetics to Pharmacotherapy. [PDF]
CCM1, CCM2, CCM3, MAP3K3, and PIK3CA genes mediate CCM pathogenesis by regulating the RhoA–ROCK, MAP3K3–KLF2/4, and PIK3CA–AKT–mTOR pathways, affecting processes such as cell migration, intercellular junctions, cell proliferation, inflammation, autophagy, EndMT, angiogenesis, and oxidative stress.

Protein kinase Cα regulates the nucleocytoplasmic shuttling of KRIT1 [PDF]
ABSTRACT KRIT1 is a scaffolding protein that regulates multiple molecular mechanisms, including cell–cell and cell–matrix adhesion, and redox homeostasis and signaling. However, rather little is known about how KRIT1 is itself regulated.

KRIT1 Deficiency Promotes Aortic Endothelial Dysfunction [PDF]
Loss-of-function mutations of the gene encoding Krev interaction trapped protein 1 (KRIT1) are associated with the pathogenesis of Cerebral Cavernous Malformation (CCM), a major cerebrovascular disease characterized by abnormally enlarged and leaky capillaries and affecting 0.5% of the human population. However, growing evidence demonstrates that KRIT1

Next-Generation Sequencing Advances the Genetic Diagnosis of Cerebral Cavernous Malformation (CCM)
Cerebral Cavernous Malformation (CCM) is a cerebrovascular disease of genetic origin that predisposes to seizures, focal neurological deficits and fatal intracerebral hemorrhage. It may occur sporadically or in familial forms, segregating as an autosomal
