Minimal structural elements required for midline repulsive signaling and regulation of Drosophila Robo1.

PLoS ONE, 2020
The Roundabout (Robo) family of axon guidance receptors has a conserved ectodomain arrangement of five immunoglobulin-like (Ig) domains plus three fibronectin type III (Fn) repeats.

Fibronectin and Fibronectin Receptors in Lung Development

Experimental Lung Research, 1997
Fibronectin (FN) is a cell adhesive extracellular matrix protein highly expressed in developing lungs. Although the role of FN in lung development remains to be elucidated, several observations suggest that it plays important roles in many developmental processes. In vitro, FN can affect the migration, proliferation, differentiation, and even apoptosis

An extracellular steric seeding mechanism for Eph-ephrin signaling platform assembly [PDF]

, 2010
Erythropoetin-producing hepatoma (Eph) receptors are cell-surface protein tyrosine kinases mediating cell-cell communication. Upon activation, they form signaling clusters.

α5β1-Integrin promotes tension-dependent mammary epithelial cell invasion by engaging the fibronectin synergy site. [PDF]

, 2017
Tumors are fibrotic and characterized by abundant, remodeled, and cross-linked collagen that stiffens the extracellular matrix stroma. The stiffened collagenous stroma fosters malignant transformation of the tissue by increasing tumor cell tension to ...

Myosin IIA and formin dependent mechanosensitivity of filopodia adhesion

Nature Communications, 2019
Fiolopodia are involved in cell migration and their attachment to the ECM is mediated by integrin receptors. Here the authors show that myosin X induced filipodia adhesion to fibronectin requires activity of myosin IIA at the filopodium base and formin ...

Tethering of Gly-Arg-Gly-Asp-Ser-Pro-Lys Peptides on Mg-Doped Hydroxyapatite

Engineering, 2017
Stem cell homing, namely the recruitment of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) to injured tissues, is highly effective for bone regeneration in vivo. In order to explore whether the incorporation of mimetic peptide sequences on magnesium-doped (Mg-doped ...

Hypoxia regulates human mast cell adhesion to fibronectin via the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway

Cell Adhesion & Migration, 2020
A decrease in oxygen concentration is a hallmark of inflammatory reactions resulting from infection or homeostasis disorders. Mast cells interact with extracellular matrix and other cells by adhesion receptors.

KLK7 overexpression promotes an aggressive phenotype and facilitates peritoneal dissemination in colorectal cancer cells

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
KLK7, a tissue kallikrein‐related peptidase, is elevated in advanced colorectal cancer and associated with shorter survival. High KLK7 levels in ascites correlate with peritoneal metastasis. In mice, KLK7 overexpression increases metastasis. In vitro, KLK7 enhances cancer cell proliferation, migration, adhesion, and spheroid formation, driving ...

Multiplicity of fibronectin-binding alpha V integrin receptors in colorectal cancer. [PDF]

, 1996
Current data from in vitro and in vivo animal models indicate that fibronectin-binding integrin receptors expressed by colon cancer cells may regulate tumour growth.

The molecular regulation of oligodendrocyte development and CNS myelination by ECM proteins

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022
Oligodendrocytes are myelin-forming cells in the central nervous system (CNS). The development of oligodendrocytes is regulated by a large number of molecules, including extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins that are relatively less characterized. Here, we
