Overexpression of the vitronectin v10 subunit in patients with nonalcoholic steatohepatitis: Implications for noninvasive diagnosis of NASH [PDF]
Nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) is the critical stage of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). The persistence of necroinflammatory lesions and fibrogenesis in NASH is the leading cause of liver cirrhosis and, ultimately, hepatocellular ...

Targeting Versican as a Potential Immunotherapeutic Strategy in the Treatment of Cancer
A growing body of literature links events associated with the progression and severity of immunity and inflammatory disease with the composition of the tissue extracellular matrix as defined by the matrisome.

Towards definition of an ECM parts list: An advance on GO categories [PDF]
Those of us interested in the extracellular matrix (ECM) are faced with significant challenges of definition. ECM proteins are large, complex and assembled into crosslinked insoluble matrices.

FoxL1+telocytes (TCFoxL1+) are novel gastrointestinal subepithelial cells that form a communication axis between the mesenchyme and epithelium. TCFoxL1+ are strategically positioned to be key contributors to the microenvironment through production and ...

Spatial and temporal changes in extracellular elastin and laminin distribution during lung alveolar development [PDF]
Lung alveolarization requires precise coordination of cell growth with extracellular matrix (ECM) synthesis and deposition. The role of extracellular matrices in alveogenesis is not fully understood, because prior knowledge is largely extrapolated from ...

Extracellular matrix signatures of human primary metastatic colon cancers and their metastases to liver [PDF]
Background: Colorectal cancer is the third most frequently diagnosed cancer and the third cause of cancer deaths in the United States. Despite the fact that tumor cell-intrinsic mechanisms controlling colorectal carcinogenesis have been identified, novel

Extracellular matrix signatures of human mammary carcinoma identify novel metastasis promoters [PDF]
The extracellular matrix (ECM) is a major component of tumors and a significant contributor to cancer progression. In this study, we use proteomics to investigate the ECM of human mammary carcinoma xenografts and show that primary tumors of differing ...

Proteins are the building blocks of life. While proteins and their localization within cells and sub-cellular compartments are well defined, the proteins predicted to be secreted to form the extracellular matrix - or matrisome - remain elusive in the ...

Pan-cancer analysis reveals molecular signatures for predicting matrix stiffness in solid tumors. [PDF]
What's new? Tumor matrix stiffness plays a critical role in cancer progression, metastasis, and therapy resistance. Here, the authors leveraged tumor RNA‐seq data to identify molecular signatures of mechanical properties across various cancer types and build a computational model for predicting tumor matrix stiffness.
