Factor XII signaling via uPAR-integrin β1 axis promotes tubular senescence in diabetic kidney disease

open access: yesNature Communications
Coagulation factor XII (FXII) conveys various functions as an active protease that promotes thrombosis and inflammation, and as a zymogen via surface receptors like urokinase-type plasminogen activator receptor (uPAR).

Involvement of Cox-2 in the metastatic potential of chemotherapy-resistant breast cancer cells

open access: yesBMC Cancer, 2011
Background A major problem with the use of current chemotherapy regimens for several cancers, including breast cancer, is development of intrinsic or acquired drug resistance, which results in disease recurrence and metastasis.

Urokinase-type plasminogek-activator receptor associates with a cell surface molecule in monocytic cells

open access: yes, 1996
The urokinase-type plasminogen activator (uPA) is a specific protease which, by converting plasminogen into plasmin, can promote the degradation of the extracellular matrix.

Proteolytic remodelling of the extracellular matrix by pericytes

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Pericytes are specialised perivascular cells intimately connected with endothelial cells and essential for the maintenance of vascular beds. They contribute to the formation and remodelling of the extracellular matrix by actively secreting proteases and protease inhibitors.

Transcriptomic Responses to Koi Herpesvirus in Isolated Blood Leukocytes from Infected Common Carp

open access: yesViruses
Koi herpesvirus (KHV, CyHV-3) causes severe economic losses in carp farms. Its eradication is challenging due to the establishment of latency in blood leukocytes and other tissues.

Antineoplastic effect of iodine in mammary cancer: participation of 6-iodolactone (6-IL) and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPAR)

open access: yesMolecular Cancer, 2009
Introduction Studies in mammary cancer demonstrated that moderately high concentrations of molecular iodine (I2) have a antiproliferative and apoptotic effect either in vivo as in vitro, however the cellular intermediated involved in these effects has ...

Investigator‐Led Research to Improve the Diagnostic Assessment of Platelet Function Disorders: Reflections on the Challenges and Rewards

open access: yesInternational Journal of Laboratory Hematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Investigator‐led research and quality improvement initiatives have led to important improvements in the diagnostic assessment of platelet function disorders (PFD). Methods Personal reflections were used to summarize our contributions to knowledge on PFD diagnostic assessment, pathogenesis, and bleeding risks.

Kinetics of the soluble urokinase plasminogen activator receptor (suPAR) in cirrhosis

open access: yesPLOS ONE, 2019
The soluble urokinase plasminogen activator receptor (suPAR) is related to hepatic inflammation and fibrosis and has been suggested to participate in the development of liver cirrhosis. Therefore, the aim of the current study was to measure the concentration of suPAR in the hepatic vein of cirrhotic patients during a liver vein catheterization to ...
