MiR-22-3p in exosomes increases the risk of heart failure after down-regulation of FURIN.
Title: MiR-22-3p in exosomes increases the risk of heart failure after down-regulation of FURIN.
TGFbeta treatment aggravated hypoxia-induced BBB permeability but ALK5 or Furin blockade reversed injury-induced permeability changes. Thus during insult Furin compromises endothelial integrity by mediating the effects of TGFbeta. Targeting the Furin or ALK5 pathway may offer novel therapeutic strategies for improving BBB stability and CNS function during disease.
Title: Furin inhibition prevents hypoxic and TGFβ-mediated blood-brain barrier disruption.
overexpression of PCs, furin and PC5, but not PC7, which are all expressed in SMC, increase PKGI cleavage in a dose-dependent manner
Title: Proprotein convertases play an important role in regulating PKGI endoproteolytic cleavage and nuclear transport.
these data suggest that furin may play an important role in regulating apoptosis and proliferation of granulosa cells.

Disturbances of the MT1-MMP/furin interaction must account for a lack in extracellular matrix remodeling, increased deposition of glomerular basement membrane material, and loss of glomerular filtration integrity in diabetic glomerulopathy.

proGHRH is initially cleave by furin at preproGHRH29-30, followed by a second cleavage at preproGHRH74 primarily by PC1 to generate GHRH and GHRH-RP peptides, respectively.

Data suggest that inhibition of furin and PC5 and resulting inhibition of insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor (IGF-1R) activation can inhibit IGF-1-induced membrane-type 1 matrix metalloproteinase activity in vascular smooth muscle cells.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
