DDR1 and MT1-MMP Expression Levels Are Determinant for Triggering BIK-Mediated Apoptosis by 3D Type I Collagen Matrix in Invasive Basal-Like Breast Carcinoma Cells
In conclusion, and in agreement with the other studies (Ford et al., 2007; Koh et al., 2015; Toy et al., 2015; Takai et al., 2018), our data suggest that during the acquisition of mesenchymal features, the level of full-length DDR1 expression should be considered, in addition to the other markers, as an important biomarker in the prognosis of aggressive breast carcinomas. As summarized in Figure 9, the regulation of cell proliferation and apoptosis by the collagen/DDR1 axis involves a differential activation of DDR1 signaling pathway and thus BIK expression. In the case of the basal-like bre...

Novel Application of Radotinib for the Treatment of Solid Tumors via Natural Killer Cell Activation.
This study provides the first evidence that radotinib could be used as an effective and strong therapeutic to treat solid tumors via upregulation of NK cell cytotoxicity, suggesting that radotinib has indirect killing mechanisms via upregulation of antitumor innate immune responses as well as direct killing activities for CML cells.

Abstract 3378: Discoidin domain receptor 2 differentially controls HT-1080 cell proliferation in young-adult and old type I collagen 3D matrices
In this study, we analyzed the effect of collagen aging on human HT-1080 fibrosarcoma cell proliferation in 3D matrix model. For this, type I collagen was extracted from tail tendons of young-adult (2 months) and old (2 years) rats. In 3D matrix, the rate of HT-1080 cell growth was significantly lower in young-adult collagen. This was accompanied by a down-regulation of ERK1/2 phosphorylation and an increase in the cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor p21 expression. Blocking antibodies and siRNA strategy against β1 integrin and AGEs receptor (RAGE) did not increase cell growth in young-adult collagen.Accumulating evidence s...
