AGE-modified basement membrane cooperates with Endo180 to promote epithelial cell invasiveness and decrease prostate cancer survival (2014)
Journal Article
Rodriguez-Teja, M., Gronau, J. H., Breit, C., Zhang, Y. Z., Minamidate, A., Caley, M. P., …Sturge, J. (2015). AGE-modified basement membrane cooperates with Endo180 to promote epithelial cell invasiveness and decrease prostate cancer survival. Journal of Pathology, 235(4), 581-592. https://doi.org/10.1002/path.4485

Biomechanical strain imposed by age-related thickening of the basal lamina and augmented tissue stiffness in the prostate gland coincides with increased cancer risk. Here we hypothesized that the structural alterations in the basal lamina associated...

LARP1 post-transcriptionally regulates mTOR and contributes to cancer progression (2014)
Journal Article
Mura, M., Hopkins, T. G., Michael, T., Abd-Latip, N., Weir, J., Aboagye, E., …Blagden, S. P. (2015). LARP1 post-transcriptionally regulates mTOR and contributes to cancer progression. Oncogene, 34(39), 5025-5036. https://doi.org/10.1038/onc.2014.428

RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) bind to and post-transcriptionally regulate the stability of mRNAs. La-related protein 1 (LARP1) is a conserved RBP that interacts with poly-A-binding protein and is known to regulate 5′-terminal oligopyrimidine tract (TOP...

Survival outcome and EMT suppression mediated by a lectin domain interaction of Endo180 and CD147 (2014)
Journal Article
Rodriguez-Teja, M., Gronau, J. H., Minamidate, A., Darby, S., Gaughan, L., Robson, C., …Sturge, J. (2015). Survival outcome and EMT suppression mediated by a lectin domain interaction of Endo180 and CD147. Molecular cancer research, 13(3), 538-547. https://doi.org/10.1158/1541-7786.mcr-14-0344-t

Epithelial cell-cell contacts maintain normal glandular tissue homeostasis, and their breakage can trigger epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT), a fundamental step in the development of metastatic cancer. Despite the ability of C-type lectin do... Read More about Survival outcome and EMT suppression mediated by a lectin domain interaction of Endo180 and CD147.
