LIN28B Promotes Cancer Cell Dissemination and Angiogenesis

open access: yesAdvanced Biology, EarlyView.
Children diagnosed with high‐risk neuroblastoma have a 5‐year event‐free survival rate of less than 50% and poor outcomes after recurrence. Deregulation of the LIN28B oncogene can be addressed in these patients. Upregulation of LIN28B is shown to support the metastatic cascade.

Biophysical regulation of stem cell behavior within the niche. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Stem cells reside within most tissues throughout the lifetimes of mammalian organisms. To maintain their capacities for division and differentiation and thereby build, maintain, and regenerate organ structure and function, these cells require extensive ...

Degree of Polymerization (DP) of Polysialic Acid (PolySia) on Neural Cell Adhesion Molecules (N-CAMs)

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2005
α2,8-Linked polysialic acid (polySia) is a structurally unique antiadhesive glycotope that covalently modifies N-linked glycans on neural cell adhesion molecules (N-CAMs).

3D In Vitro Models of Breast Cancer: Current Challenges and Future Prospects Toward Recapitulating the Microenvironment and Mimicking Key Processes

open access: yesAdvanced Biology, EarlyView.
In vitro cancer models are advantageous for studying important processes such as tumorigenesis, cancer growth, invasion, and metastasis. The complexity and biological relevance increase depending on the model structure, organization, and composition of materials and cells.

Family-wide Structural and Biophysical Analysis of Binding Interactions among Non-clustered δ-Protocadherins

open access: yesCell Reports, 2020
Summary: Non-clustered δ1- and δ2-protocadherins, close relatives of clustered protocadherins, function in cell adhesion and motility and play essential roles in neural patterning.

Morris Water Maze Learning in Two Rat Strains Increases the Expression of the Polysialylated Form of the Neural Cell Adhesion Molecule in the Dentate Gyrus But Has No Effect on Hippocampal Neurogenesis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
In the current study, the authors investigated whether Morris water maze learning induces alterations in hippocampal neurogenesis or neural cell adhesion molecule (NCAM) polysialylation in the dentate gyrus.

Intersection Between Local Anesthetics and Cancer Biology: What Now? Where Are We Going?

open access: yesAdvanced Biology, EarlyView.
Local anesthetics (LAs), widely used in anesthesia, may also play a role in cancer treatment by inhibiting tumor growth, reducing metastasis, and enhancing immune responses. They modulate key pathways like AKT/mTOR and RAS/ERK while affecting angiogenesis and tumor innervation and the immune response.

Wnt Signaling in Neural Crest Ontogenesis and Oncogenesis. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Neural crest (NC) cells are a temporary population of multipotent stem cells that generate a diverse array of cell types, including craniofacial bone and cartilage, smooth muscle cells, melanocytes, and peripheral neurons and glia during embryonic ...

Complex-type Asparagine-linked Oligosaccharides on Phosphacan and Protein-tyrosine Phosphatase-ζ/β Mediate Their Binding to Neural Cell Adhesion Molecules and Tenascin (*)

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 1995
Phosphacan, a soluble nervous tissue-specific chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan, is an alternative splicing product representing the entire extracellular domain of a transmembrane receptor-type protein-tyrosine phosphatase (RPTPζ/β) that also occurs as a ...

Expression of neural cell adhesion molecule in dysmyelinating mutants

open access: yesBrain Research, 1990
The possible role of neural cell adhesion molecule (NCAM) in myelination was studied in the dysmyelinating mouse mutants jimpy and shiverer, by characterizing the expression of the different molecular forms of brain NCAM as a function of age. In jimpy, the expression of NCAM-120 (120,000-Da NCAM) was low and in shiverer both NCAM-120 and NCAM-180 (180 ...
