Glycosaminoglycan-based hydrogels scavenge proinflammatory chemokines, reduce the influx of immune cells, and improve healing chronic wounds.
Leukocyte recruitment in response to inflammatory signals is governed, part, by binding Thy-1 (CD90) on activated endothelial cells (EC). In this study, we characterized the adhesion G-protein coupled receptor CD97, present peripheral myeloid cells, as a novel interacting partner for Thy-1. CD97 was upregulated polymorphonuclear (PMNC) of patients with psoriasis. psoriatic skin lesions, CD97(+) colocalized Thy-1(+) EC small vessels microabscesses, suggesting an interaction between and that...
Abstract The heptahelical receptor CD97 is a defining member of the EGF-TM7 family adhesion class receptors. In both humans and mice, isoforms are expressed with variable numbers tandemly arranged N-terminal epidermal growth factor-like domains that facilitate interactions distinct cellular ligands. Results from treatment mice mAbs in various disease models have suggested role for leukocyte trafficking. Here, we aimed to thoroughly characterize expression profile CD97, delineate its...
The adhesion G-protein-coupled receptor CD97 is present in normal colonic enterocytes but overexpressed colorectal carcinoma. To investigate the function of carcinogenesis, transgenic Tg(villin-CD97) mice overexpressing were generated and subjected to azoxymethane (AOM)/dextran sodium sulfate (DSS)-induced colitis-associated tumorigenesis. Unexpectedly, we found a cDNA copy number-dependent reduction DSS-induced colitis Tg compared wild-type (WT) that was confirmed by applying simple DSS...
It is well recognized that high molecular weight hyaluronan (H‐HA) exerts potent anti‐inflammatory effects while its fragmentation into low HA (L‐HA) discussed to promote inflammation. Chemical modification of with sulfate groups has been shown foster activity which seems be maintained in sulfated derivatives (sL‐HA). However, the mechanisms by sL‐HA produces are not understood. In this study, we used global quantitative proteomics combined targeted analysis key proteins characterize effect...
The adhesion G protein-coupled receptor CD97/ADGRE5 is present in adherens junctions of human normal intestinal cells and upregulated colorectal carcinomas. Here, we examined whether CD97 directly interacts with junctional proteins malignant tissue. We identified an association β-catenin using a proximity ligation assay confirmed the interaction between both endogenous at biochemical level by co-immunoprecipitation mouse tissues cell lines. GST-pulldown revealed that binds through its...
