Escaping Antiangiogenic Therapy: Strategies Employed by Cancer Cells [PDF]

, 2016
Indexación: Web of ScienceTumor angiogenesis is widely recognized as one of the hallmarks of cancer. Consequently, during the last decades the development and testing of commercial angiogenic inhibitors has been a central focus for both basic and ...

Increased Blood Flow and Tendon Swelling Precedes Vascular Expansion and Tissue Matrix Changes In Early Human Tendinopathy: A Potential Window for Superior Treatment Response

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Human participants with early‐ or chronic‐stage tendinopathy and healthy controls are investigated using ultrasound Doppler, 3T and 7T MRI, and tendon biopsies. Tendon swelling and hyperperfusion are evident early, while vascular growth and extracellular matrix changes are most pronounced in chronic tendinopathy. Early intervention may provide superior

hibitor (serpin) gene family; annotation and transcriptional analysis

BMC Genomics, 2009
Background Serine proteinase inhibitors (Serpins) are a large superfamily of structurally related, but functionally diverse proteins that control essential proteolytic pathways in most branches of life.

DNA accelerates the protease inhibition of a bacterial serpin chloropin

Frontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2023
Serine protease inhibitors (Serpins) are the most widely distributed protease inhibitors in nature and have been identified from all kingdoms of life.

Mutual Exclusion Analysis Shows that DUSP9 Negatively Regulates PD‐L1 Expression and Acts as a Target to Enhance Anti‐PD‐1 Efficacy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A mutually exclusive screening system is established to identify negative regulators of highly plastic genes. Dual specificity phosphatase (DUSP9) is a novel negative regulatory molecule of PD‐L1 by dephosphorylating STAT3, and acts as a target molecule in combination with PD‐1 antibody for tumor immunotherapy and a new clinical biomarker for ...

Endothelial Cell‐Specific Molecule‐1 (ESM1): An Endogenous Anticoagulant and Protective Factor in Venous Thrombosis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study identifies ESM1 as an endogenous anticoagulant that modulates venous thrombosis. It shows that ESM1 deficiency triggers vascular occlusion in zebrafish and mice, whereas its restoration or overexpression prolongs clot‐formation time. Mechanistic analyses reveal that ESM1 activates HCII through its dermatan‐sulfate chain, uncovering a ...

Misfolding linked mutations of SERPINA1 gene are uncommon in preeclampsia

Archives of Medicine and Health Sciences, 2019
Background: Alpha-1 antitrypsin (A1AT) is a protease inhibitor that plays an important role in regulating oxidative stress in preeclampsia (PE). Recent studies have shown that A1AT is misfolded in PE.

Membralin Assembles a MAN1B1–VCP Complex to Target Foreign Glycoproteins from the Endoplasmic Reticulum to Lysosomes for Degradation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study identifies Membralin as an ER‐phagy receptor that recruits MAN1B1 and VCP to form a selective ERLAD complex. By sensing dense N‐glycan clusters on viral fusion glycoproteins, this ubiquitin‐independent pathway directs SARS‐CoV‐2 spike, Ebola GP, influenza HA, and HIV‐1 Env to lysosomal degradation, thereby limiting viral infectivity ...

All-atom simulations reveal how single point mutations promote serpin misfolding

, 2018
Protein misfolding is implicated in many diseases, including the serpinopathies. For the canonical inhibitory serpin {\alpha}1-antitrypsin (A1AT), mutations can result in protein deficiencies leading to lung disease, and misfolded mutants can accumulate ...

An antibody raised against a pathogenic serpin variant induces mutant-like behaviour in the wild-type protein. [PDF]

, 2015
A monoclonal antibody (mAb) that binds to a transient intermediate may act as a catalyst for the corresponding reaction; here we show this principle can extend on a macro-molecular scale to the induction of mutant-like oligomerisation in a wild-type ...
