The dynamics of ECM signaling are tightly controlled throughout growth and 28 development. During tissue remodeling, matricellular proteins (MCPs) are secreted into the 29 ECM. These factors do not serve classical structural roles, but rather regulate matrix proteins 30 and cell-matrix interactions to influence normal cellular functions. In the tumor 31 microenvironment, it is becoming increasingly clear that aberrantly expressed MCPs can 32 support multiple hallmarks of carcinogenesis by interacting with various cellular components 33 that are coupled to an array of downstream signals. Moreover, MCPs also reorganize the 34 biomechanical properties of the ECM to accommodate metastasis and tumor colonization. This 35 realization is stimulating new research on MCPs as reliable and accessible biomarkers in cancer, 36 as well as effective and selective therapeutic targets. 37 2 Downloaded from cancerres.aacrjournals.org on October 2, 2021. © 2020 American Association for Cancer Research.

Previously 41 regarded as merely a static scaffold for cell/tissue organization, the ECM is now viewed as a 42 critical niche contributing to the regulation of cellular survival, proliferation and migration. This 43 realization has positioned the ECM at the center stage of normal physiological processes such 44 as development, tissue homeostasis and tissue remodeling. 45 The dynamic nature of ECM signaling is determined by a secreted subset of non- 46 structural matricellular proteins (MCPs) (1), in contrast to the structural roles of “classical” ECM 47 proteins such as collagen and fibronectin (2). MCP functional versatility is achieved by its 48 multiple domains that either (i) bind ECM proteins and/or cell surface receptors, (ii) bind and 49 regulate the activity or accessibility of extracellular signaling molecules such as growth factors, 50 proteases, chemokines, and cytokines, or (iii) mediate intrinsic enzymatic activities to precisely 51 orchestrate the assembly, degradation, and organization of the ECM. MCPs are tightly 52 controlled, with expression promptly occurring in context-specific scenarios. Typically, they are 53 highly expressed during early development, ultimately subsiding in adult tissues under 54 physiological conditions. However, transient re-expression is observed during injury repair, and 55 can also be sustained in chronic pathologies such as cancer (2-7). Indeed, chronic unscheduled 56 expression of various MCPs, either by tumor cells or the surrounding stroma (8), leads to 57 abnormal ECM remodeling and stimulation of mitogenic pathways essential for cancer 58 progression. This may underlie the correlation between the upregulation of many MCPs and 3 Downloaded from cancerres.aacrjournals.org on October 2, 2021. © 2020 American Association for Cancer Research.

Members are grouped based on shared domains, which in turn 70 reflect the functional diversity between families. 71 The SPARC protein (Secreted Protein Acidic and Rich in Cysteine; hereafter alternative 72 protein names are included in parentheses; BM40, osteonectin), one of the original MCPs to be 73 characterized, is considered prototypical due to its simple structure and rich functionality. The 74 subsequent discovery of other MCPs with structural similarity revealed a broader family of 75 SPARC-related proteins (10). Such SPARC family members share follistatin-like and extracellular 76 calcium-binding (EC) domains, and are classified into five distinct groups based on sequence 77 homology of their EC domains (10): SPARCs, SPARCL1, SMOCs, SPOCKs and Follistatin-like 78 protein-1 (FSTL1). SPARC family members were shown to regulate ECM assembly and 79 deposition, influence cytokine activity, inhibit cell adhesion and cell cycle progression, regulate 80 cell differentiation and activate matrix metalloproteinases (10). While most SPARC members 4 Downloaded from cancerres.aacrjournals.org on October 2, 2021. © 2020 American Association for Cancer Research.

Each is comprised of an N-terminal secretory 86 peptide and four functional domains: insulin-like growth factor-binding protein domain (IGFBP), 87 Von Willebrand factor domain (VWR), thrombospondin type-1 repeat module (TSR) and 88 carboxy-terminal cysteine-knot (CT) motif (11). In response to tissue remodeling, CCN proteins 89 are expressed, principally in mesenchymal cells, during development and in connective tissue 90 pathologies (12). The postnatal role of CCN proteins is known for promoting collagen stability or 91 organization (13). 92 Tenascins (TNs) comprise a family of four large extracellular matrix glycoproteins, i.e., 93 TN-C, -R, -W and -X, which exist as either trimers or hexamers (14). TNs share a characteristic 94 modular structure composed of tandem epidermal growth factor (EGF)-like domains, 95 fibronectin-type III domains and a C-terminal fibrinogen related domain (FReD). Consequently, 96 TNs share functions in modulating cellular responses to the ECM and growth factors, specifically 97 regulating growth, differentiation, adhesion and migration during tissue remodeling events 98 (15). However, each member has distinct spatial and temporal expression. TN-C expression is 99 typically present in all organs during fetal development and mechanical stress, whereas TN-W 100 expression is restricted to developing/remodeling bone and certain stem cell niches (14). TN-R 101 is expressed exclusively in the developing and adult nervous system, while TN-X represents a 5 Downloaded from cancerres.aacrjournals.org on October 2, 2021. © 2020 American Association for Cancer Research.

Studies of the cellular components have helped to build understanding of glomerular disease; however, the full composition and regulation of glomerular ECM remains poorly understood. Here, we employed mass spectrometry–based proteomics of enriched ECM extracts for a global analysis of human glomerular ECM in vivo and identified a tissue-specific proteome of 144 structural and regulatory ECM proteins. This catalogue includes all previously identified glomerular components, plus many new and abundant components.

J. Struijker-Boudier6, Peter Verhamme7, Cees Vermeer8 & Jan A. Staessen 1,9 Active matrix Gla protein (MGP), a potent inhibitor of calcifcation in large arteries, protects against macrovascular complications. Recent studies suggested that active MGP helps maintaining the integrity of the renal and myocardial microcirculation, but its role in preserving the retinal microcirculation remains unknown. In 935 randomly recruited Flemish participants (mean age, 40.9 years; 50.3% women), we measured plasma desphospho-uncarboxylated MGP (dp–ucMGP), a marker of poor vitamin K status using an ELISA-based assay at baseline (1996–2010) and retinal microvascular diameters using IVAN software (Vasculomatic ala Nicola, version 1.1) including the central retinal arteriolar (CRAE) and venular (CRVE) equivalent and the arteriole-to-venule ratio (AVR) at follow-up (2008–2015). CRAE (P = 0.005) and AVR (P = 0.080) at follow-up decreased across tertiles of the dp–ucMGP distribution. In unadjusted models, for a doubling of dp–ucMGP at baseline, CRAE and AVR at follow-up respectively decreased by 1.40 µm (95% confdence interval [CI], 0.32 to 2.48; P = 0.011) and 0.006 (CI, 0.001 to 0.011; P = 0.016). In multivariable-adjusted models accounting for sex, baseline characteristics and follow-up duration, these estimates were −1.03 µm (CI, −1.96 to −0.11; P = 0.028) and −0.007 (CI, −0.011 to −0.002; P = 0.007).

  • TSPAN9 and EMILIN1 Synergistically Inhibit the Migration and Invasion Of
    Qi et al. BMC Cancer (2019) 19:630 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12885-019-5810-2 RESEARCHARTICLE Open Access TSPAN9 and EMILIN1 synergistically inhibit the migration and invasion of gastric cancer cells by increasing TSPAN9 expression Yaoyue Qi1, Jing Lv2, Shihai Liu3, Libin Sun2, Yixuan Wang1, Hui Li1, Weiwei Qi2* and Wensheng Qiu2* Abstract Background: Globally, the incidence and mortality rates of gastric cancer are high, and its poor prognosis is closely related to tumor recurrence and metastasis. Therefore, the molecular mechanisms associated with the migration and invasion of gastric cancer cells are important for gastric cancer treatment. Previously, TSPAN9 has been reported to inhibit gastric cancer cell migration; however, the underlying molecular mechanism remains unclear. Methods: Human gastric adenocarcinoma cell lines, SGC7901 and AGS, were cultured in vitro. TSPAN9 expression was determined by RT-PCR, western blot analysis, and immunohistochemistry in gastric cancer and tumor-adjacent tissues. Following the over-expression and knockdown of TSPAN9, wound healing and cell invasion assays were performed and EMT-related protein expression was evaluated to analyze the invasion and migration of gastric cancer cells. TSPAN9 expression and the invasion and metastasis of gastric cancer cells were observed by the functional assays following EMILIN1 over-expression. Results: Inhibiting TSPAN9 expression significantly promoted the migration and invasion of gastric cancer cells. In addition, immunofluorescence co-localization and co-immunoprecipitation analysis revealed closely related expression of EMILIN1 and TSPAN9. Moreover, EMILIN1 can synergistically boost the tumor suppressive effect of TSPAN9, which may be produced by promoting TSPAN9 expression. Conclusions: We have demonstrated that EMILIN1 induces anti-tumor effects by up-regulating TSPAN9 expression in gastric cancer.

Deletion of Hsp47 leads to collagen 0.03 aggregates in cultured fibroblasts and cell death in vivo. (A) Adult primary heart fibroblasts were isolated from R26eGFP Hsp47-loxP 0.02 TUNEL (%) TUNEL * targeted mice and infected with Adβgal or AdCre. Seventy-two hours later cells were processed for collagen-hybridizing peptide 0.01 immunofluorescence (red), showing collagen aggregates when Hsp47 was deleted, which was not observed in Adβgal controls. Fibroblast 0 Sham identity was shown by eGFP staining in the AdCre infected conditions. TAC Three separate experiments gave similar results. (B) TUNEL staining showing cell death levels in hearts of the indicated mice after 4 weeks post TAC.
