Functions of Thrombospondin-1 in the Tumor Microenvironment

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2021
International audienceThe identification of thrombospondin-1 as an angiogenesis inhibitor in 1990 prompted interest in its role in cancer biology and potential as a therapeutic target. Decreased thrombospondin-1 mRNA and protein expression are associated

Thrombospondin 1 in Metabolic Diseases

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2021
The thrombospondin family comprises of five multifunctional glycoproteins, whose best-studied member is thrombospondin 1 (TSP1). This matricellular protein is a potent antiangiogenic agent that inhibits endothelial migration and proliferation, and ...

THBS1 (thrombospondin-1) [PDF]

open access: yesAtlas of Genetics and Cytogenetics in Oncology and Haematology, 2020
Thrombospondins are encoded in vertebrates by a family of 5 THBS genes. THBS1 is infrequently mutated in most cancers, but its expression is positively regulated by several tumor suppressor genes and negatively regulated by activated oncogenes and ...

Thrombospondins: Purification of human platelet thrombospondin-1 [PDF]

open access: yesMethods in Cell Biology, 2018
Thrombospondins are a family of five secreted proteins that have diverse roles in modulating cellular function. Thrombospondins-1 and 2 were identified as matricellular proteins based on their functional roles combined with their transient appearance or accumulation in extracellular matrix at specific times during development and in response to injury ...

Role of thrombospondin‑1 and thrombospondin‑2 in cardiovascular diseases (Review)

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Medicine, 2020
Thrombospondin (TSP)‑1 and TSP‑2 are matricellular proteins in the extracellular matrix (ECM), which serve a significant role in the pathological processes of various cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). The multiple effects of TSP‑1 and TSP‑2 are due to their ability to interact with various ligands, such as structural components of the ECM, cytokines ...

E2F-1 directly regulates thrombospondin 1 expression. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2010
Thrombospondin 1 (TSP1) has been shown to play a critical role in inhibiting angiogenesis, resulting in inhibition of tumor growth and metastases. To figure out TSP1's regulators will lead to reveal its biological function mechanistically. In this study,

Thrombospondin-1 promotes matrix homeostasis by interacting with collagen and lysyl oxidase precursors and collagen cross-linking sites

open access: yesScience Signaling, 2018
Fibrillar collagens of the extracellular matrix are critical for tissue structure and physiology; however, excessive or abnormal deposition of collagens is a defining feature of fibrosis.

Relationship of thrombospondin-1 and thrombospondin-2 with hematological, biochemical and inflammatory markers in COVID-19 patients

open access: yesTürk Biyokimya Dergisi, 2023
Roles of thrombospondin-1 (TSP-1) and thrombospondin-2 (TSP-2) in tissue repair and inflammation are well-documented, but the association of their serum expressions with the pathogenesis of COVID-19 remains unclear.

Thrombospondin expression in myofibers stabilizes muscle membranes

open access: yeseLife, 2016
Skeletal muscle is highly sensitive to mutations in genes that participate in membrane stability and cellular attachment, which often leads to muscular dystrophy.

The thrombospondin-4 gene

open access: yesMammalian Genome, 1999
Thrombospondins are a family of extracellular, adhesive proteins that are widely expressed in vertebrates. Five distinct gene products, designated thrombospondin-1 through -4 and cartilage oligomeric matrix protein (COMP), have been identified.
