Select epidermal growth factor (EGF)‐like (EGFL) repeats of human tenascin cytotactin (tenascin C) can stimulate EGF receptor (EGFR) signaling, but activation requires micromolar concentrations of soluble EGFL repeats in contrast to subnanomolar concentrations of classical growth factors such as EGF. Using in silico homology modeling techniques, we generated a structure for one such repeat, the 14th EGFL repeat (Ten14). Ten14 assumes a tight EGF‐like fold with truncated loops, consistent with… 
TENASCIN CYTOTACTIN EGF-LIKE REPEATS - NOVEL MATRIKINE LIGANDS FOR THE EPIDERMAL GROWTH FACTOR RECEPTOR
TLDR
A novel class of EGFR ligands are presented that can potentially signal as a part of the matrix, triggering select signaling cascades leading to a directed cellular response from an otherwise pleiotropic receptor.
Cell surface restriction of EGFR by a tenascin cytotactin‐encoded EGF‐like repeat is preferential for motility‐related signaling
TLDR
A novel class of EGFR ligands that can potentially signal as a part of the extracellular matrix is presented, triggering specific intracellular signaling cascades leading to a directed cellular response from an otherwise pleiotropic receptor.
The matrikine tenascin-C protects multipotential stromal cells/mesenchymal stem cells from death cytokines such as FasL.
TLDR
Results suggest that providing MSCs with a nonimmunogenic naturally occurring ECM moiety such as TNC enhances their survival in the presence of death factors, and this advantage occurs via signaling through EGFR primarily and integrins only to a minor extent.
Melanoma cell invasiveness is promoted at least in part by the Epidermal Growth Factor-like repeats of Tenascin-C
TLDR
It is suggested that melanoma-derived TNC EGFL play a role in melanoma invasion by modulating ROCK signaling and cell migration and adding TNC to matrices enhances individual melanoma cell migration.
Tenascin-C is expressed by human glioma in vivo and shows a strong association with tumor blood vessels
TLDR
Five novel monoclonal antibodies identifying different domains of TN-C are described, finding strong differences between the adhesion-influencing properties of the recombinant fragments on glioma cells.
Engineered Bivalent Ligands to Bias ErbB Receptor-mediated Signaling and Phenotypes*
TLDR
It is demonstrated that bivalent NRG (NN) can bias signaling in HER3-expressing cancer cells, resulting in some cases in decreased migration, inhibited proliferation, and increased apoptosis, whereas native NRG stimulation increased the malignant potential of the same cells.
The role of tenascin-C in tissue injury and tumorigenesis
TLDR
Hopes are generated that increased knowledge about tenascin-C will further improve management of diseases with high tenascInC expression such as chronic inflammation, heart failure, artheriosclerosis and cancer.
Matricellular Signal Transduction Involving Calmodulin in the Social Amoebozoan Dictyostelium
TLDR
CyrA is the first identified extracellular CaMBP in this eukaryotic microbe and the presence of extCaM and its role in regulating a matricellular protein during morphogenesis extends the understanding of CaM-mediated signal transduction in eukARYotes.
An EGF-like peptide sequence from Dictyostelium enhances cell motility and chemotaxis.

Epidermal growth factor (EGF)-like repeats of human tenascin-C as ligands for EGF receptor
TLDR
A new class of ligand for the epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor (EGFR) found within the EGF-like repeats of tenascin-C, an antiadhesive matrix component present during organogenesis, development, and wound repair is described.
Folding of epidermal growth factor-like repeats from human tenascin studied through a sequence frame-shift approach.
TLDR
It is concluded that both kinetics and thermodynamics drive the correct pairing of cysteines, and speculate about how cysteine mispairing could trigger disulfide reshuffling in vivo.
Intracellular Trafficking of Epidermal Growth Factor Family Ligands Is Directly Influenced by the pH Sensitivity of the Receptor/Ligand Interaction (*)
TLDR
Using members of the epidermal growth factor (EGF) family as well as site-directed recombinant human EGF mutants, this work investigated how ligand binding properties influence endosomal sorting with marked differences that correlate with the differing pH sensitivities of the ligands' binding properties.
Effect of Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor Internalization on Regulation of the Phospholipase C-γ1 Signaling Pathway*
TLDR
It is concluded that EGFR signaling through the PLC pathway is spatially restricted at a point between PLC-γ1 phosphorylation and PIP2 hydrolysis, perhaps because of limited access of EGFR-bound PLC -γ1 to its substrate in endocytic trafficking organelles.
Effect of epidermal growth factor receptor internalization on regulation of the phospholipase C-gamma1 signaling pathway.
TLDR
EGF continues to stimulate maximal tyrosine phosphorylation of EGFR following internalization, while TGFalpha stimulates markedly less, and EGFR signaling through the PLC pathway is spatially restricted at a point between PLC-gamma1 phosphorylated and PIP2 hydrolysis, perhaps because of limited access of EG FR-bound PLC -gamma 1 to its substrate in endocytic trafficking organelles.
Cell movement elicited by epidermal growth factor receptor requires kinase and autophosphorylation but is separable from mitogenesis
TLDR
Findings suggested that the presence of both an autophosphorylated tyrosine signaling domain and the kinase activity are necessary for this biologic response to EGF-induced mitogenesis and cell motility are mediated through different pathways.
Internalized Epidermal Growth Factor Receptors Participate in the Activation of p21 ras in Fibroblasts*
TLDR
This work found that activated EGFR located at the cell surface and in internal compartments contribute equally to the membrane recruitment and tyrosine phosphorylation of Shc in NR6 fibroblasts expressing wild-type EGFR, which suggests a selective continuation of specific signaling activities and cessation of others upon receptor endocytosis.
Crystal Structure of the Complex of Human Epidermal Growth Factor and Receptor Extracellular Domains
The extracellular domain of the epidermal growth factor receptor. Studies on the affinity and stoichiometry of binding, receptor dimerization and a binding-domain mutant.
TLDR
It is shown, using sedimentation equilibrium analysis, that ligand binding induces significant dimerization of the EGFR extracellular domain, and identified amino acid residues which are close to the binding site since they are common to the epitopes of several ligand-competitive monoclonal antibodies.
