Gene Information from Publications

Publication Link Summary of findings
15370542 Observational study of gene-disease association. (HuGE Navigator)
17786338 Overexpression of Laminin-5 gamma2 is associated with oral squamous cell carcinomas
17390227 findings suggest that mesenchymal cells contribute to the promotion of tumour cell migration as well as vessel formation in oral squamous cell carcinoma by providing and organising promigratory Ln-5 fragments
15149852 co-cultures of epithelial cells and fibroblasts were studied to analyse the processing of laminin 5 alpha3, beta3, and gamma2 chains
16870608 Ln-5 is an important regulator of ADPKD cell proliferation and cystogenesis; Ln-5 gamma(2) chain and Ln-5-alpha(6)beta(4) integrin interaction both contribute to these phenotypic changes
17314405 domain V of the gamma2 chain negatively regulates the integrin beta4 phosphorylation, probably through a syndecan-1-mediated signaling, leading to enhanced cell adhesion and suppressed cell motility
15373767 Premature termination codon mutations in both alleles of LAMB3 or LAMC2 genes were found in nine of the 11 H junctional epidermolysis bullosa patients
12643602 Laminin-5 gamma2 chain expression may contribute to formation of budding tumor cells at the invasive front, and immunostaining of this adhesion molecule may be useful in identifying high-risk patients for locoregional failure in T1 colorectal carcinomas.
15963983 Ln-5 gamma2 chain regulates the secretion of the alpha3 and beta3 subunits. More importantly, suppression of Ln-5 results in a phenotype that is representative of invasive tumor cells
11920553 cytoplasmic expression represents high invasive potential of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma and is correlated with distant metastasis and poorer prognosis
