Journal ArticleDOI
Decorin causes autophagy in endothelial cells via Peg3
Simone Buraschi,Thomas Neill,Atul Goyal,Chiara Poluzzi,James Smythies,Rick T. Owens,Liliana Schaefer,Annabel Torres,Renato V. Iozzo +8 more
TL;DR: A mechanism for a secreted proteoglycan in inducing Peg3, a master regulator of macroautophagy in endothelial cells is unveiled, providing a paradigmatic shift for other soluble matrix constituents to regulate autophagy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Endorepellin, the angiostatic module of perlecan, interacts with both the α2β1 integrin and vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 (VEGFR2): a dual receptor antagonism.
Atul Goyal,Nutan Pal,Matthew Concannon,Matthew Paul,Mike Doran,Chiara Poluzzi,Kiyotoshi Sekiguchi,John M. Whitelock,Thomas Neill,Renato V. Iozzo +9 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that both perlecan and endorepellin bind directly and with high affinity to both VEGF receptors 1 and 2, in a region that differs from VEGFA-binding site, and hypothesized that a mechanism such as dual receptor antagonism could operate for other angiostatic fragments.
Journal ArticleDOI
Endostatin and endorepellin: A common route of action for similar angiostatic cancer avengers.
TL;DR: Cleaved fragments of extracellular matrix proteoglycans are emerging as key players in the modulation of angiogenesis and endothelial cell autophagy, and Manipulation of these endogenously-processed forms could represent new therapeutic approaches for cancer eradication.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biglycan evokes autophagy in macrophages via a novel CD44/Toll-like receptor 4 signaling axis in ischemia/reperfusion injury
Chiara Poluzzi,Madalina-Viviana Nastase,Jinyang Zeng-Brouwers,Heiko Roedig,Louise Tzung-Harn Hsieh,Jonas B. Michaelis,Eva Miriam Buhl,Flávia Rezende,Yosif Manavski,André Bleich,Peter Boor,Ralf P. Brandes,Josef Pfeilschifter,Ernst H. K. Stelzer,Christian Münch,Ivan Dikic,Christian Brandts,Renato V. Iozzo,Malgorzata Wygrecka,Liliana Schaefer +19 more
TL;DR: CD44 is a novel signaling co-receptor for biglycan, an interaction that is required for TLR4-CD44-dependent pro-autophagic activity in macrophages and could represent a promising therapeutic intervention to curtail kidney inflammation and damage.
Journal ArticleDOI
Endorepellin evokes autophagy in endothelial cells.
TL;DR: A new role is identified for this endogenous angiostatic fragment in inducing autophagy through a VEGFR2-dependent but α2β1 integrin-independent pathway and this novel mechanism specifically targets endothelial cells and could represent a promising new strategy to potentiate the angiastatic effect of endorepellin and perhaps other angiOSTatic matrix proteins.
