General description

ILK (Integrin-Linked Kinase) is an intraceullar Ser/Thr kinase with four Ankyrin-like repeats. It is known to play pivotal roles in extracellular matrix mediated signaling. ILK is known to associate with β-Integrins in addition to many other focal adhesion associated proteins. In this context, ILK is involved cell adhesion and migration. The kinase activity appears to be reduced following integrin activation, and overexpression of p59 ILK inhibits cellular adhesion to integrin substrates. Additionally, ILK has been associated with epithelial mesechymal transition (EMT) in a TGF-β1 induced Smad dependent manner (Li, 2003). Forced expression of ILK also induced the expression of MMP-2 (matrix metalloprotease 2) and promoted cell migration and invasion (Li, 2003).

Specificity

This antibody recognizes ILK when phosphorylated at Ser246.

We defined how blood-derived vitronectin (VTN) rapidly and potently activates leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF) and pro-inflammatory interleukin 6 (IL-6) in vitro and after vascular injury in the brain. Treatment with VTN (but not fibrinogen, fibronectin, laminin-111 or collagen-I) substantially increased

Platelets interact with multiple adhesion proteins during thrombogenesis, yet little is known about their ability to assemble fibronectin matrix. In vitro three-dimensional superresolution microscopy complemented by biophysical and biochemical methods revealed fundamental insights into how platelet contractility drives fibronectin fibrillogenesis.

The extracellular matrix (ECM) microenvironment is increasingly implicated in the instruction of pathologically relevant cell behaviors, from aberrant transdifferentation to invasion and beyond. Indeed, pathologic ECMs possess a panoply of alterations that provide deleterious instructions to resident cells. Here we

Utrophin is normally confined to the neuromuscular junction (NMJ) in adult muscle and partially compensates for the loss of dystrophin in mdx mice. We show that Akt signaling and utrophin levels were diminished in sarcospan (SSPN)-deficient muscle. By creating several

Inflammation is an extensively concerted process that confers protection to the host encountering immune insult. The major inflammatory mediators include IL-1 family members, such as IL-1β, and the functional activation of such molecules is arbitrated by their regulated cleavage brought
