The ubiquitin-proteasome system regulates focal adhesions at the leading edge of migrating cells

open access: yeseLife, 2016
Cell migration requires the cyclical assembly and disassembly of focal adhesions. Adhesion induces phosphorylation of focal adhesion proteins, including Cas (Crk-associated substrate/p130Cas/BCAR1).

ESCRT-I Protein Tsg101 Plays a Role in the Post-macropinocytic Trafficking and Infection of Endothelial Cells by Kaposi's Sarcoma-Associated Herpesvirus.

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2016
Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) binding to the endothelial cell surface heparan sulfate is followed by sequential interactions with α3β1, αVβ3 and αVβ5 integrins and Ephrin A2 receptor tyrosine kinase (EphA2R).

N-Cadherin Induction by ECM Stiffness and FAK Overrides the Spreading Requirement for Proliferation of Vascular Smooth Muscle Cells

open access: yesCell Reports, 2015
In contrast to the accepted pro-proliferative effect of cell-matrix adhesion, the proliferative effect of cadherin-mediated cell-cell adhesion remains unresolved. Here, we studied the effect of N-cadherin on cell proliferation in the vasculature. We show

KAI1 suppresses HIF-1α and VEGF expression by blocking CDCP1-enhanced Src activation in prostate cancer [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Background KAI1 was initially identified as a metastasis-suppressor gene in prostate cancer. It is a member of the tetraspan transmembrane superfamily (TM4SF) of membrane glycoproteins.

Recent advances in angiotensin II signaling

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2002
Angiotensin II (Ang II)* is a multifunctional hormone that influences the function of cardiovascular cells through a complex series of intracellular signaling events initiated by the interaction of Ang II with AT1 and AT2 receptors.

Neural crest in development and repair [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
This thesis is focused on several aspects of neural crest biology, largely related to two main issues: 1) understanding its mechanisms of migration and 2) analyzing the potential of neural crest stem cells or their derivatives for nervous system repair ...

Conditional deletion of CD98hc inhibits osteoclast development

open access: yesBiochemistry and Biophysics Reports, 2016
The CD98 heavy chain (CD98hc) regulates virus-induced cell fusion and monocyte fusion, and is involved in amino acid transportation. Here, we examined the role that CD98hc plays in the formation of osteoclasts using CD98hcflox/floxLysM-cre peritoneal ...

Interaction of Gα₁₂ with Gα₁₃ and Gα_q signaling pathways [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
The G(12) subfamily of heterotrimeric G-proteins consists of two members, G(12) and G(13). Gene-targeting studies have revealed a role for G(13) in blood vessel development. Mice lacking the a subunit of G(13) die around embryonic day 10 as the result of
