Lack of evidence for a role of anthrax toxin receptors as surface receptors for collagen VI and for its cleaved-off C5 domain/endotrophin

Summary: The microfibril-forming collagen VI is proteolytically cleaved and it was proposed that the released C-terminal Kunitz domain (C5) of the α3 chain is an adipokine important for tumor progression and fibrosis. Designated “endotrophin,” C5 is a potent biomarker for fibroinflammatory diseases....
