  4. 12. Tissue Factor Biological Functions : Coagulation Activity in Microparticles and Signaling with Focus On Migration and Apoptosis

    Author : Mikael Åberg; Agneta Siegbahn; Carl-Henrik Heldin; Teet Velling; Björn Dahlbäck; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Tissue factor; Apoptosis; Migration; Chemotaxis; Simvastatin; Platelet Derived Growth Factor; Cell Signaling; Microparticles; Prostasomes; Trombosis; Coagulation; Prostate Cancer; Breast Cancer; Caspase-3; Caspase-8; NFkappaB; PAR2; Transactivation; Monocytes; Clinical chemistry; Klinisk kemi;

    Abstract : Background: Tissue factor (TF) is a 47 kDa transmembrane glycoprotein known as the main initiator of blood coagulation. TF is over-expressed on many malignant cells and apart from increasing the risk of thrombosis, the presence of TF/FVIIa also promotes the progression of cancer and metastasis by intracellular signaling.

  5. 13. Transcriptional Regulation of the Platelet-Derived Growth Factor beta-receptor

    Author : Anders Hackzell; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : PDGF; cell cycle; p73; p53; SV40; NF-Y; Sp1; Myc;

    Abstract : The Platelet Derived-Growth Factor (PDGF) receptors and ligands are expressed in cells of predominantly mesenchymal origin. Binding of the ligands to the receptors stimulates cell proliferation and other cellular responses such as differentiation and cell movement. READ MORE

  6. 14. Transcriptional regulation of the platelet-derived growth factor B gene

    Author : Stephen J. Miller; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Biology; Biologi; Biology; Biologi; Developmental Biology; miljömedicinsk utvecklingsbiologi;

    Abstract : The Platelet-Derived Growth Factor B (PDGF-B) gene product is an important protein during development and adult life, as well as being associated with the development of many tumour types. It has been ascribed roles in many normal and pathological processes including angiogenesis, tissue repair, atherosclerosis and cytotrophoblast proliferation. READ MORE
