Published in 2023 at "Journal of Cellular Physiology"

DOI: 10.1002/jcp.30973

Abstract: Protease‐activated receptor‐1 & ‐2 (PAR1 and PAR2) are expressed widely in cardiovascular tissues including endothelial and smooth muscle cells. PAR1 and PAR2 may regulate blood pressure via changes in vascular contraction or relaxation mediated by… read more here.

Published in 2019 at "Archives of biochemistry and biophysics"

DOI: 10.1016/j.abb.2019.01.019

Abstract: Human airway trypsin-like protease (HAT) localizes at human bronchial epithelial cells (HBECs). HAT enhanced release of interleukin-8 (IL-8) from HBECs at 10-100 mU/mL and the enhanced release was almost completely abolished by 50 μM leupeptin, a… read more here.

Published in 2021 at "Cancer letters"

DOI: 10.1016/j.canlet.2021.05.040

Abstract: The Bcl-2 homolog Bcl-xL is emerging as a key factor in tumorigenesis due to its prominent pro-survival and cell death-independent functions. However, the regulation of Bcl-xL by microenvironment and its implication in cancer therapy of… read more here.

Published in 2021 at "Cancer letters"

DOI: 10.1016/j.canlet.2021.08.032

Abstract: The maintenance and expansion of cancer stem-like cells (CSCs) is necessary for metastasis. Although protease-activated receptor 2 (PAR2) is strongly associated with colorectal cancer (CRC) progression, it is unclear how it regulates distal metastasis, and… read more here.

Published in 2019 at "Molecular Metabolism"

DOI: 10.1016/j.molmet.2019.08.019

Abstract: Objective Increases in hepatic and plasma cholesterol occur in patients with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), although the reason for this is not well understood. We investigated whether Protease-Activated Receptor 2 (PAR2) plays a role… read more here.

Published in 2020 at "Neurochemistry International"

DOI: 10.1016/j.neuint.2019.104602

Abstract: BACKGROUND AND AIM Oxidative stress (OS) is accused in pathogenesis of many diseases, including liver cirrhosis by many mechanisms. One of them is the disturbance of long non coding maternally expressed 3 (MEG3)/protease activated receptor… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America"

DOI: 10.1073/pnas.2112059119

Abstract: Significance Colonic epithelial cells protect against inflammation by forming a barrier against ingress of microbes, digestive enzymes, and metabolic waste from the lumen. Protease-activated receptor-2 (PAR2) mediates the proinflammatory and pronociceptive actions of proteases. We… read more here.

Published in 2024 at "Gut Microbes"

DOI: 10.1080/19490976.2024.2387857

Abstract: ABSTRACT Imbalances in proteolytic activity have been linked to the development of inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) and experimental colitis. Proteases in the intestine play important roles in maintaining homeostasis, but exposure of mucosal tissues to… read more here.
