  1. 1. The Laminins and their Receptors

    Författare :Maria Ferletta; Taina Pihlajaniemi; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Cell and molecular biology; Basement membrane; laminin; integrin; dystroglycan; epithelial cells; signal transduction; Cell- och molekylärbiologi; Cell and molecular biology; Cell- och molekylärbiologi; molekylär cellbiologi; Molecular Cellbiology;

    Sammanfattning : Basement membranes are thin extracellular sheets that surround muscle, fat and peripheral nerve cells and underlay epithelial and endothelial cells. Laminins are one of the main protein families of these matrices. Integrins and dystroglycan are receptors for laminins, connecting cells to basement membranes. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Interleukin-6 Signaling Pathways in Human Vascular Endothelial Cells : Molecular Mechanisms and Associations to Atherosclerosis

    Författare :Mulugeta Melkie Zegeye; Liza Ljungberg; Allan Sirsjö; Ashok K Kumawat; Magnus Grenegård; Stefan Rose-John; Örebro universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; HUVECs; Angiogenesis; Laminins; Transmigration; Biomarker; Cytokine; Inflammation; Myocardial infarction;

    Sammanfattning : Interleukin-6 is pleotropic cytokine produced by several types of cells including endothelial cells (ECs). IL-6 acts on target cells via two major signaling mechanisms known as classic signaling and trans-signaling. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Laminins and Fibulins in Bone Marrow

    Författare :Yu-Chen Gu; Institutionen för experimentell medicinsk vetenskap; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; glucocorticoids; integrin; Immunology; serology; Immunologi; serologi; transplantation; Cytology; oncology; Biokemi; Metabolism; Biochemistry; cancer; onkologi; cancerology; Cytologi; fibulin; laminin; bone marrow;

    Sammanfattning : Development of hematopoietic cells in bone marrow takes place in association with the hematopoietic microenvironment. Extracellular matrix (ECM) molecules and stromal cells in bone marrow provide a structural environment for hematopoietic cells, but they also directly influence proliferation, differentiation and migration of cells by signal transduction mediated by ligand binding to cell surface adhesion receptors.

  4. 4. Modulation of Angiogenesis by Laminins and Heparan Sulfate

    Författare :Lars Jakobsson; Lena Claesson-Welsh; Johan Kreuger; Elisabetta Dejana; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Molecular medicine; Embryonic stem; heparan sulfate; laminin; basement membrane; VEGFR-2; VEGF; endothelial cell; signaling; angiogenesis; vasculogenesis; embryoid body; Molekylärmedicin;

    Sammanfattning : Blood vessels transport blood with essential nutrients and oxygen to the cells in our body. In a healthy adult, formation of new vessels (angiogenesis) occurs only in case of tissue repair and growth. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Biological roles of laminins 8, 9 and 10

    Författare :Jill Thyboll; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : In order to form multicellular organisms, cells need attachment, either directly to each other through cell-cell interactions, or indirectly via a complex mixture of macro-molecules called the extracellular matrix. Basement membranes are specialized forms of this matrix. LÄS MER
