They bind to and influence the activity of a variety of molecules like growth factors, proteases and ... -
Fibroblast EXT1-Levels Influence Tumor Cell Proliferation and Migration in Composite Spheroids
Österholm, Cecilia; Lu, Ning; Lidén, Åsa; Karlsen, Tine V.; Gullberg, Donald; Reed, Rolf K.; Kusche-Gullberg, Marion (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2012-07-25)Background: Stromal fibroblasts are important determinants of tumor cell behavior.

Fibroblast α11β1 Integrin Regulates Tensional Homeostasis in Fibroblast/A549 Carcinoma Heterospheroids
Lu, Ning; Karlsen, Tine Veronica; Reed, Rolf K.; Kusche-Gullberg, Marion; Gullberg, Donald (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014-07-30)We have previously shown that fibroblast expression of α11β1 integrin stimulates A549 carcinoma cell growth in a xenograft tumor model. To understand the molecular mechanisms whereby a collagen receptor on fibroblast can ...
