Overexpression of type VI collagen in neoplastic lung tissues
Type VI collagen (COL6), an extracellular matrix protein, is important in maintaining the integrity of lung tissue. An increase in COL6 mRNA and protein deposition was found in the lungs of patients with pulmonary fibrosis, a chronic inflammatory condition with a strong association with lung cancer. In the present study, we demonstrated overexpression of COL6 in the lungs of non-small cell lung...
متن کاملOverexpression of collagen VI α3 in gastric cancer
Collagen VI is significant in the progression of numerous types of cancer. Type VI collagen consists of three α-chains and collagen VI α3 (COL6A3) encodes the α3 chain. The overexpression of COL6A3 has been demonstrated to correlate with high-grade ovarian cancer and contributes to cisplatin resistance; however, its role in human gastric cancer (GC) remains unclear. Using microarray meta-analys...

Foetal-bovine nuchal ligament and aorta, together with adult-bovine aorta and pregnant uterus, were extracted under dissociative conditions in the absence and in the presence of a reducing agent. A collagenous glycoprotein of Mr 140000 [designated component 140K(VI)], identified in these extracts as the major periodate/Schiff-positive component, was shown to be related to collagen type VI. Dige...
متن کاملOverexpression of CCIO Modifies Neoplastic Potential in Lung Cancer Cells1
CCIO is infrequently expressed in non-small cell lung cancer cell lines, despite being abundantly produced by progenitor cells for normal and neoplastic airway epithelium. We overexpressed CCIO cDNA in the nonsmall cell lung cancer cell line A549 to determine its effect on the neoplastic phenotype. A549 cells transfected with CCIO demonstrated a marked reduction in invasiveness that was paralle...
متن کاملCell adhesion to type-VI collagen.
In conclusion, we have provided experimental and theoretical evidence that the a-helical, coiledcoil domain of laminin is responsible for chain assembly and chain selectivity. None of the laminin chains appears to be designed for formation of homodimers, although these are common in many other fibrous proteins [ 111. Only selected heteroassociations are stable in laminin isoforms. The data on f...
