Contribution of corneal neovascularization to dendritic cell migration into the central area during human corneal infection. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
Compared with the peripheral corneal limbus, the human central cornea lacks blood vessels, which is responsible for its immunologically privileged status and high transparency.

Calcium mimics the chemotactic effect of conditioned media and is an effective inducer of bone regeneration.

PLoS ONE, 2019
BackgroundAfter bone resorption, ions and degraded organic components are co-released into the extracellular space. Ions and growth factors, although different in their biological nature, induce a common and coordinated chemotactic effect.

Cytokine concentration in peripheral blood of patients with colorectal cancer

Frontiers in Immunology, 2023
IntroductionThe role of tumour secretory cytokines and peripheral circulatory cytokines in tumour progression has received increasing attention; however, the role of tumour-related inflammatory cytokines in colorectal cancer (CRC) remains unclear.

Associations Between Macrophage Colony‐Stimulating Factor and Monocyte Chemotactic Protein 1 in Plasma and First‐Time Coronary Events: A Nested Case–Control Study

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2016
Background Myeloid cells play a central role in atherosclerosis. We investigated the associations between the plasma levels of growth factors and chemokines that regulate myeloid cell homeostasis and function and the risk of first‐time acute coronary ...

An optimization of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cell isolation for scientific and clinical purposes by the application of a new parameter determining the hematopoietic graft efficacy.

Folia Histochemica et Cytobiologica, 2008
The transplantation of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPC) is an established lifesaving therapy. Bone marrow (BM), harvested from heparinized cadaveric organ donors, peripheral blood (PB) and cord blood (CB), are important sources of ...

Mechanistic modeling of light-induced chemotactic infiltration of bacteria into leaf stomata.

PLoS Computational Biology, 2020
Light is one of the factors that can play a role in bacterial infiltration into leafy greens by keeping stomata open and providing photosynthetic products for microorganisms.

Increased migratory activity and cartilage regeneration by superficial-zone chondrocytes in enzymatically treated cartilage explants

BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2022
Background Limited chondrocyte migration and impaired cartilage-to-cartilage healing is a barrier in cartilage regenerative therapy. Collagenase treatment and delivery of a chemotactic agent may play a positive role in chondrocyte repopulation at the ...

The Hypoxia-Associated Localization of Chemotaxis Protein CheZ in Azorhizorbium caulinodans

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021
Spatial organization of chemotactic proteins is important for cooperative response to external stimuli. However, factors affecting the localization dynamics of chemotaxis proteins are less studied.

A multiscale hybrid model for pro-angiogenic calcium signals in a vascular endothelial cell [PDF]

, 2012
Cytosolic calcium machinery is one of the principal signaling mechanisms by which endothelial cells (ECs) respond to external stimuli during several biological processes, including vascular progression in both physiological and pathological conditions ...
