Mechanical Stability and Fibrinolytic Resistance of Clots Containing Fibrin, DNA, and Histones [PDF]

, 2013
Neutrophil extracellular traps are networks of DNA and associated proteins produced by nucleosome release from activated neutrophils in response to infection stimuli and have recently been identified as key mediators between innate immunity, inflammation,

Oncogenic H‐Ras Reprograms Madin‐Darby Canine Kidney (MDCK) Cell‐Derived Midbody Remnant Proteome Following Epithelial‐Mesenchymal Transition

PROTEOMICS, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Epithelial‐mesenchymal transition (EMT) is a fundamental, dynamic cellular process involved in embryonic development, metastasis, organ fibrosis, and tissue regeneration. To define the molecular landscape of secreted midbody remnants (MBRs) to the EMT process, a proteome analysis of MBRs released from Madin–Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells and

Pathogenic and Regulatory Roles of Fibrinolytic Factors in Autoimmune Diseases

Current Issues in Molecular Biology
Autoimmune diseases arise from complex interactions of genetic, environmental, and hormonal factors, yet their precise causes remain elusive. Beyond its canonical role in fibrin degradation, the fibrinolytic system is increasingly recognized as both a ...

E4 engages uPAR and enolase-1 and activates urokinase to exert antifibrotic effects

JCI Insight, 2021
Fibroproliferative disorders such as systemic sclerosis (SSc) have no effective therapies and result in significant morbidity and mortality. We recently demonstrated that the C-terminal domain of endostatin, known as E4, prevented and reversed both ...

Advancing Extracellular Vesicle Research: A Review of Systems Biology and Multiomics Perspectives

PROTEOMICS, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are membrane‐bound vesicles secreted by various cell types into the extracellular space and play a role in intercellular communication. Their molecular cargo varies depending on the cell of origin and its functional state.

Measuring the metastatic potential of cancer cells [PDF]

, 1993
Cancer cells must secrete proteolytic enzymes to invade adjacent tissues and migrate to a new metastatic site. Urokinase (uPA) is a key enzyme related to metastasis in cancers of the lung, colon, gastric, uterine, breast, brain, and malignant melanoma. A

Are we hallucinating or can psychedelic drugs modulate the immune system to control inflammation?

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Psychedelic drugs that activate 5‐HT2A receptors have been long used for cultural, medicinal and recreational purposes. Interest in psychedelics for treating psychiatric disorders has resurged recently and is well documented; less well recognised are their anti‐inflammatory properties. Growing evidence now demonstrates that psychedelics modulate immune

Attenuation of urokinase activity during experimental ischaemia protects the cerebral barrier from damage through regulation of matrix metalloproteinase-2 and NAD(P)H oxidase [PDF]

, 2014
Ischaemic injury impairs the integrity of the blood–brain barrier (BBB). In this study, we investigated the molecular causes of this defect with regard to the putative correlations among NAD(P)H oxidase, plasminogen–plasmin system components, and matrix ...
