    Requirement of mitogen-activated protein kinase for collagenase production by the fibronectin fragment in human articular chondrocytes in culture

    Fibronectin fragments have been shown to up-regulate matrix metalloproteinase production in chondrocytes. We investigated the roles of mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathways activated by the COOH-ter...

    Hyaluronan inhibits IL-1β-stimulated collagenase production via down-regulation of phosphorylated p38 in SW-1353 human chondrosarcoma cells

    We investigated the intracellular mechanism for the inhibitory effects of hyaluronan (HA) on interleukin-1β (IL-1β)-stimulated collagenase-1 and -3 (matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs)-1 and -13) production in a ...

    Inhibition of basal-like breast cancer growth by FTY720 in combination with epidermal growth factor receptor kinase blockade

    New molecular targets are needed for women with triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). This pre-clinical study investigated the combination of the EGFR inhibitor gefitinib with the sphingosine kinase (SphK) inh...
