Roles of matrix metalloproteinases in cancer progression and their pharmacological targeting

Chrisostomi Gialeli, Achilleas D. Theocharis, Nikos K. Karamanos · 21 Oct 2010

Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) consist of a multigene family of zinc-dependent extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling endopeptidases implicated in pathological processes, such as carcinogenesis. In this regard, their activity plays a pivotal role in tumor growth and the multistep processes of invasion and metastasis, including proteolytic degradation of ECM, alteration of the cell-cell and cell-ECM interactions, migration…

Mechanisms regulating skeletal muscle growth and atrophy

Stefano Schiaffino, Kenneth A. Dyar, Stefano Ciciliot et al. · 21 Mar 2013

Skeletal muscle mass increases during postnatal development through a process of hypertrophy, i.e. enlargement of individual muscle fibers, and a similar process may be induced in adult skeletal muscle in response to contractile activity, such as strength exercise, and specific hormones, such as androgens and β-adrenergic agonists. Muscle hypertrophy occurs when the overall rates of…

A guide to chemokines and their receptors

Catherine E. Hughes, Robert J. B. Nibbs · 11 Apr 2018

The chemokines (or chemotactic cytokines) are a large family of small, secreted proteins that signal through cell surface G protein-coupled heptahelical chemokine receptors. They are best known for their ability to stimulate the migration of cells, most notably white blood cells (leukocytes). Consequently, chemokines play a central role in the development and homeostasis of the…

The C‐type lectin‐like domain superfamily

Alex N. Zelensky, Jill E. Gready · 28 Nov 2005

The superfamily of proteins containing C-type lectin-like domains (CTLDs) is a large group of extracellular Metazoan proteins with diverse functions. The CTLD structure has a characteristic double-loop ('loop-in-a-loop') stabilized by two highly conserved disulfide bridges located at the bases of the loops, as well as a set of conserved hydrophobic and polar interactions. The second…

Lipid metabolism in cancer

Cláudio R. Santos, Almut Schulze · 23 May 2012

Lipids form a diverse group of water-insoluble molecules that include triacylglycerides, phosphoglycerides, sterols and sphingolipids. They play several important roles at cellular and organismal levels. Fatty acids are the major building blocks for the synthesis of triacylglycerides, which are mainly used for energy storage. Phosphoglycerides, together with sterols and sphingolipids, represent the major structural components…
