The emerging role of NOTCH3 receptor signalling in human lung diseases
Abstract The mammalian respiratory system or lung is a tree-like branching structure, and the main site of gas exchange with the external environment. Structurally, the lung is broadly classified into the proximal (or conducting) airways and the distal alveolar region, where the gas exchange occurs.

Infantile myofibromatosis (IMF) is a benign tumor form characterized by the development of nonmetastatic tumors in skin, bone, muscle and sometimes viscera. Autosomal-dominant forms of IMF are caused by mutations in the PDGFRB gene, but a family carrying

Expressions and Prognostic Values of Notch3 and DLL4 in Human Breast Cancer
Background : Notch signaling played a critical role in promoting breast tumorigenesis and progression. However, the role and prognostic value of Notch3 combined with DLL4 expression in breast carcinoma had not been explored.

Disrupted NOTCH activity is a driving event in urothelial bladder cancer (UBC). After activation by hypoxia, the NOTCH3 receptor participates in tumor cell proliferation, acquisition of the epithelial-mesenchymal transition phenotype, and angiogenesis ...

The ectodomain of the Notch3 receptor accumulates within the cerebrovasculature of CADASIL patients [PDF]
Mutations in Notch3 cause CADASIL (cerebral autosomal dominant adult onset arteriopathy), which leads to stroke and dementia in humans. CADASIL arteriopathy is characterized by major alterations of vascular smooth muscle cells and the presence of specific granular osmiophilic deposits.

Activation Dynamics and Signaling Properties of Notch3 Receptor in the Developing Pulmonary Artery [PDF]
Notch3 signaling is fundamental for arterial specification of systemic vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs). However, the developmental role and signaling properties of the Notch3 receptor in the mouse pulmonary artery remain unknown. Here, we demonstrate that Notch3 is expressed selectively in pulmonary artery VSMCs, is activated from late fetal to ...

Active immunotherapy reduces NOTCH3 deposition in brain capillaries in a CADASIL mouse model
Cerebral autosomal dominant arteriopathy with subcortical infarcts and leukoencephalopathy (CADASIL) is the most common monogenic form of familial small vessel disease; no preventive or curative therapy is available. CADASIL is caused by mutations in the

Notch2 and Notch3 function together to regulate vascular smooth muscle development. [PDF]
Notch signaling has been implicated in the regulation of smooth muscle differentiation, but the precise role of Notch receptors is ill defined. Although Notch3 receptor expression is high in smooth muscle, Notch3 mutant mice are viable and display only ...

Genetic study of the NOTCH3 gene in CADASIL patients
Background: Cerebral autosomal-dominant arteriopathy with subcortical infarcts and leukoencephalopathy (CADASIL) is a monogenic, hereditary, neurological syndrome characterized by small vessel disease (SVD), stroke, vascular cognitive impairment and ...
