Inhibition of collagen fibril formation
BACKGROUND The overall aim of presented study is to test the inhibition of the formation of collagen fibrils as the novel approach to reduce accumulation of pathological fibrotic deposits. The main hypothesis is that by interfering with the initial steps of the extracellular process of collagen fibril formation, it is possible to reduce the formation of fibrotic tissue. METHODS The experiment...
متن کاملEffect of Low-Power Helium-Neon Laser Irradiation on Collagen Fibril Thickness of Incisized Medial Collateral Ligament of Knee in Rat
Purpose: The aim of the present study is to investigate the effect of low-power Helium-Neon laser (LPL) on collagen fibril thickness of incisized medial collateral ligament of knee joint (MCL) in rat. Materials and Methods: MCL of right hind limb of 35 male adult sprague Dawley rat under general anesthesia were transversly incisized. Rats were randomly divitded into normal, control, first lase...
متن کاملSwitch from αvβ5 to αvβ6 integrin expression protects squamous cell carcinomas from anoikis
Stratified squamous epithelia express the alphavbeta5 integrin, but in squamous cell carcinomas (SCCs) there is down-regulation of alphavbeta5 and up-regulation of alphavbeta6. To investigate the significance of this finding, we transduced an alphav-negative human SCC line with retroviral vectors encoding alphav integrins. alphavbeta5-expressing cells underwent suspension-induced apoptosis (ano...
متن کاملInhibition of the αvβ6 integrin leads to limited alteration of TGF-α-induced pulmonary fibrosis.
A number of growth factors and signaling pathways regulate matrix deposition and fibroblast proliferation in the lung. The epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) family of receptors and the transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) family are active in diverse biological processes and are central mediators in the initiation and maintenance of fibrosis in many diseases. Transforming growth factor-α ...
متن کاملOverexpression of PTEN suppresses non-small-cell lung carcinoma metastasis through inhibition of integrin αVβ6 signaling.
Studies have demonstrated that the abnormal expression of phosphatase and tensin homolog deleted on chromosome 10 (PTEN) is associated with multiple malignancies, but its functional role in non-small-cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC) metastasis remains to be elucidated. In the present study, we investigated the role of PTEN in regulating proliferation, migration, and invasion of NSCLC cells by establ...
