Microporous Microgel Assemblies Facilitating the Recruitment and Osteogenic Differentiation of Progenitor Cells for Bone Regeneration

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
There is a significant need for biomaterials with well‐defined stability and bioactivity to support tissue regeneration. In this study, we developed a tunable microgel platform that enables the decoupling of stiffness from porosity, thereby promoting bone regeneration.

High-Density Lipoproteins from Coronary Artery Disease and Aortic Valve Stenosis Patients Differentially Regulate Gene Expression in a Model of Cardiac Adipocytes

Cells
Previous reports have described a statistical association between high-density lipoproteins (HDL) subclasses and the expression of genes coding for pro-calcifying proteins in the epicardial adipose tissue of patients with coronary artery disease (CAD ...

Distinctive Expression of Bone Metabolism-related Genes between PBMCs from Condylar Hyperplasia, Rheumatoid Arthritis, and Ankylosing Spondylitis Patients

Iranian Journal of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology, 2020
Bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) and wingless (Wnt) signaling molecules and their antagonists, such as sclerostin and noggin, have been identified to have different effects on bone metabolism. This research intended to evaluate the transcript levels of

Biointerface Membranes Orchestrating Site‐Specific Osteoimmunomodulatory and Antibacterial Effects for Enhanced Osseous Regeneration in Periodontal Therapy

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Here, a biointerface membrane engineered with site‐specific interfacial properties is developed. During implantation between gingival and bone defect, the membrane creates a pro‐osteogenic microenvironment, precisely modulates cellular activities at each biointerface, and facilitates the orchestration of complex healing events, ultimately leading to ...

Noggin depletion in adipocytes promotes obesity in mice. [PDF]

, 2019
ObjectiveObesity has increased to pandemic levels and enhanced understanding of adipose regulation is required for new treatment strategies. Although bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) influence adipogenesis, the effect of BMP antagonists such as Noggin ...

Anti-inflammatory properties of bone morphogenetic protein 4 in human adipocytes [PDF]

International Journal of Obesity, 2015
Obesity is characterized by increased adipocyte number and size as well as white adipose tissue (WAT) inflammation, which is fundamental for the development of insulin resistance and type-2 diabetes. These processes, regulated by various endocrine, paracrine and autocrine factors, are extensively studied with the hope to interfere and to inhibit weight
