[99mTc]Tc-Labeled Plectin-Targeting Peptide as a Novel SPECT Probe for Tumor Imaging

open access: yesPharmaceutics, 2022
Certain receptors are often overexpressed during tumor occurrence and development and closely correlate with carcinogenesis. Owing to its overexpression on the cell membrane and cytoplasm of various tumors, plectin, which is involved in tumor ...

Interaction of Plectin with Keratins 5 and 14: Dependence on Several Plectin Domains and Keratin Quaternary Structure [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Investigative Dermatology, 2014
Plectin, a cytolinker of the plakin family, anchors the intermediate filament (IF) network formed by keratins 5 and 14 (K5/K14) to hemidesmosomes, junctional adhesion complexes in basal keratinocytes. Genetic alterations of these proteins cause epidermolysis bullosa simplex (EBS) characterized by disturbed cytoarchitecture and cell fragility.

Plectin as a prognostic marker in non-metastatic oral squamous cell carcinoma [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Background: Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is associated with a poor 5-year survival rate. In general, patients diagnosed with small tumors have a fairly good prognosis, but some small tumors have an aggressive behavior leading to early death. There

Life-long course and molecular characterization of the original Dutch family with epidermolysis bullosa simplex with muscular dystrophy due to a homozygous novel plectin point mutation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Plectin is one of the largest and most versatile cytolinker proteins known. Cloned and sequenced in 1991, it was later shown to have nonsense mutations in recessive epidermolysis bullosa with muscular dystrophy.

Targeted proteolysis of plectin isoform 1a accounts for hemidesmosome dysfunction in mice mimicking the dominant skin blistering disease EBS-Ogna.

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2011
Autosomal recessive mutations in the cytolinker protein plectin account for the multisystem disorders epidermolysis bullosa simplex (EBS) associated with muscular dystrophy (EBS-MD), pyloric atresia (EBS-PA), and congenital myasthenia (EBS-CMS).

Effects of Plectin Depletion on Keratin Network Dynamics and Organization. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
The keratin intermediate filament cytoskeleton protects epithelial cells against various types of stress and is involved in fundamental cellular processes such as signaling, differentiation and organelle trafficking. These functions rely on the cell type-

Stable isotopic labeling in proteomics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Labeling of proteins and peptides with stable heavy isotopes (deuterium, carbon-13, nitrogen-15, and oxygen-18) is widely used in quantitative proteomics.

Identification of proteins in the postsynaptic density fraction by mass spectrometry [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
Our understanding of the organization of postsynaptic signaling systems at excitatory synapses has been aided by the identification of proteins in the postsynaptic density (PSD) fraction, a subcellular fraction enriched in structures with the morphology ...

Mitochondrial Adaptation to Mechanical Stress in Cardiac Ageing and Disease. [PDF]

open access: yesAdv Sci (Weinh)
Mechanical forces shape the heart's energy factories. This review explores how mitochondria in cardiac cells sense and respond to biomechanical stress, altering their structure, positioning, and metabolism. By linking mechanical cues to mitochondrial adaptation, the article highlights pathways driving heart disease and points to new strategies for ...

The “Third Violin” in the Cytoskeleton Orchestra—The Role of Intermediate Filaments in the Endothelial Cell’s Life

open access: yesBiomedicines, 2022
The endothelium plays an important role in the transcytosis of lipoproteins. According to one of the theories, endothelial injury is a triggering factor for the development of atherosclerosis, and intracellular structures, including components of the ...
