The Staphylococcus aureus Receptor for Fibronectin

Journal of Investigative Dermatology, 1983
The Staphylococcus aureus binding site for human fibronectin was determined by unique biologic assays based upon the specific adherence of the bacterium to nasal epithelial cells. Fibronectin treatment of S. aureus caused a reduction in adherence tallies on high granular and fully keratinized cells compared to controls (p less than 0.05; p less than 0 ...

Dual function of Slit2 in repulsion and enhanced migration of trunk, but not vagal, neural crest cells [PDF]

, 2003
Neural crest precursors to the autonomic nervous system form different derivatives depending upon their axial level of origin; for example, vagal, but not trunk, neural crest cells form the enteric ganglia of the gut.

Inhibition of αvβ3 integrin induces loss of cell directionality of oral squamous carcinoma cells (OSCC). [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2017
The connective tissue formed by extracellular matrix (ECM) rich in fibronectin and collagen consists a barrier that cancer cells have to overpass to reach blood vessels and then a metastatic site. Cell adhesion to fibronectin is mediated by αvβ3 and α5β1

Dorsal and ventral stimuli in cell–material interactions: effect on cell morphology [PDF]

, 2012
Cells behave differently between bidimensional (2D) and tridimensional (3D) environments. While most of the in vitro cultures are 2D, most of the in vivo extracellular matrices are 3D, which encourages the development of more relevant culture conditions,

The tyrosine phosphatase CD148 is an essential positive regulator of platelet activation and thrombosis [PDF]

, 2009
Platelets play a fundamental role in hemostasis and thrombosis. They are also involved in pathologic conditions resulting from blocked blood vessels, including myocardial infarction and ischemic stroke.

Combined effect of insulin-like growth factor-1 and CC chemokine ligand 2 on angiogenic events in endothelial cells.

PLoS ONE, 2015
Therapeutic angiogenesis may be applied in medical conditions to promote stimulation of angiogenesis. Angiogenesis is a multistep process, which includes endothelial cell proliferation, migration, and tube formation, which is mediated by various ...

Cell adhesion and signaling on the fibronectin 1^st type III repeat; requisite roles for cell surface proteoglycans and integrins

BMC Cell Biology, 2001
Background The first type III repeat of fibronectin is known to be involved in fibronectin matrix assembly, and recombinant proteins from this type III repeat can inhibit cell proliferation, tumor metastasis and angiogenesis. We have analyzed the way rat

Fibronectin receptors from Staphylococcus aureus.

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 1983
Fibronectin which is recognized for its ability to mediate substrate adhesion of eucaryotic cells has also been shown to bind to Staphylococcus aureus (Kuusela, P. (1978) Nature (Lond)2 76, 718-720). A further characterization of the interaction of fibronectin with staphylococci is presented here. The binding of 1251- fibronectin to S.

The integrin-ligand interaction regulates adhesion and migration through a molecular clutch. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
Adhesive and migratory behavior can be cell type, integrin, and substrate dependent. We have compared integrin and substrate differences using three integrin receptors: α5β1, α6β1, and αLβ2 expressed in a common cell type, CHO.B2 cells, which lack ...

Tissue engineering a fetal membrane [PDF]

, 2011
The aim of this study was to construct an artificial fetal membrane (FM) by combination of human amniotic epithelial stem cells (hAESCs) and a mechanically enhanced collagen scaffold containing encapsulated human amniotic stromal fibroblasts (hASFs ...
