Lysyl oxidase-like 3 mRNA expression indicates poor survival from oral squamous cell carcinoma

open access: yesJournal of Dental Sciences, 2011
Background/purpose: Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is highly prevalent worldwide. Lysyl oxidase (LOX) is an important enzyme that modulates the extracellular matrix. The LOX superfamily contains LOX and LOX-like (LOXL) enzymes.

Understanding exosomes in regenerative dentistry

open access: yesPeriodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Regenerative dentistry is shifting from cell‐based strategies to cell‐free biologics capable of orchestrating intricate tissue repair. Exosomes, nanosized extracellular vesicles carrying bioactive molecular payloads, have emerged as central modulators of intercellular communication.

Computational modelling of cardiac fibroblast signalling reveals a key role for Ca2+ in driving atrial fibrillation‐associated fibrosis

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend A pre‐existing fibroblast signalling model was enhanced by integrating atrial‐specific components and reactions linked to atrial fibrosis and atrial fibrillation (AF). The analysis highlights the central role of Ca2⁺ signalling in driving profibrotic responses to AF‐relevant stimuli, angiotensin‐II and transforming growth factor ...

TNF-α post-transcriptionally attenuates Wnt3a-stimulated lysyl oxidase mRNA levels.

open access: yes, 2014
A) The effect of TNF-α on Wnt3a-stimulated lysyl oxidase mRNA levels in C3H10T1/2 cells was examined by treating cells with Wnt3a- or control-conditioned media in the presence or absence of increasing concentrations of TNF-α.

RETRACTED: LOXL2 Upregulation in Gliomas Drives Tumorigenicity by Activating Autophagy to Promote TMZ Resistance and Trigger EMT

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2020
Glioma is the most prevalent primary brain tumor in adults and has an extremely unfavorable prognosis. As a member of the lysyl oxidase (LOX) family, lysyl-oxidase-like-2 (LOXL2) is known to play different roles in different tumors.

Cannabinoid exposure during pregnancy: Cardiorespiratory effects and offspring outcomes

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Prenatal exposure to cannabinoids has been investigated across human and animal studies to understand its impact on physiological development. Evidence suggests that early‐life cannabinoid exposure influence multiple developmental processes, extending beyond neurodevelopmental outcomes to potentially affect placental function ...

Regulation of Lysyl Oxidase by Interferon-γ in Rat Aortic Smooth Muscle Cells

open access: yes, 2000
—Lysyl oxidase is an essential catalyst for the cross-linking of extracellular collagen and elastin. Abnormalities in lysyl oxidase activity may contribute to the pathogenesis of arterial diseases characterized by abnormal matrix remodeling.
