Procoagulant microparticles: disrupting the vascular homeostasis equation?
Apoptosis and vascular cell activation are main contributors to the release of procoagulant microparticles (MPs), deleterious partners in atherothrombosis. Elevated levels of circulating platelet, monocyte, or endothelial-derived MPs are associated with most of the cardiovascular risk factors and appear indicative of poor clinical outcome. In addition to being a valuable hallmark of vascular ce...
متن کاملCartilage oligomeric matrix protein promotes prostate cancer progression by enhancing invasion and disrupting intracellular calcium homeostasis
Cartilage oligomeric matrix protein (COMP) was recently implicated in the progression of breast cancer. Immunostaining of 342 prostate cancer specimens in tissue microarrays showed that COMP expression is not breast cancer-specific but also occurs in prostate cancer. The expression of COMP in prostate cancer cells correlated with a more aggressive disease with faster recurrence. Subcutaneous xe...
متن کاملDisrupting polyamine homeostasis as a therapeutic strategy for neuroblastoma.
MYC genes are deregulated in a plurality of human cancers. Through direct and indirect mechanisms, the MYC network regulates the expression of > 15% of the human genome, including both protein-coding and noncoding RNAs. This complexity has complicated efforts to define the principal pathways mediating MYC's oncogenic activity. MYC plays a central role in providing for the bioenergetic and bioma...
متن کاملRole for dithiolopyrrolones in disrupting bacterial metal homeostasis.
Natural products harbor unique and complex structures that provide valuable antibiotic scaffolds. With an increase in antibiotic resistance, natural products once again hold promise for new antimicrobial therapies, especially those with unique scaffolds that have been overlooked due to a lack of understanding of how they function. Dithiolopyrrolones (DTPs) are an underexplored class of disulfid...
متن کاملDetecting , Identifying , and Disrupting Protein - Protein Interactions
Protein-protein interactions have critical roles in many biological processes. We describe here the development of new approaches to detect, identify, and disrupt specific proteinprotein interactions. First. for the disruption of the interactions, a genetic selection was developed to select for dissociative inhibitors of dimeric enzymes from a genetically encoded combinatorial peptide library. ...
