DDR2 controls breast tumor stiffness and metastasis by regulating integrin mediated mechanotransduction in CAFs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Biomechanical changes in the tumor microenvironment influence tumor progression and metastases. Collagen content and fiber organization within the tumor stroma are major contributors to biomechanical changes (e., tumor stiffness) and correlated with ...

Persistent Vascular Collagen Accumulation Alters Hemodynamic Recovery from Chronic Hypoxia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is caused by narrowing and stiffening of the pulmonary arteries that increase pulmonary vascular impedance (PVZ). In particular, small arteries narrow and large arteries stiffen. Large pulmonary artery (PA) stiffness

The impact of Hnrnpl deficiency on transcriptional patterns of developing muscle cells

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
We performed nanopore whole‐transcriptome sequencing comparing RNA from Hnrnpl‐knockdown versus control C2C12 myoblasts to investigate the contributions of Hnrnpl to muscle development. Our results indicate that Hnrnpl regulates the expression of genes involved with Notch signaling and skeletal muscle, particularly splicing patterns of specific muscle ...

Maillard reaction products from Tilapia (Oreochromis mossambicus) scale collagen peptides conjugated with Galactooligosaccharides of different purities: Characterization, antioxidant activity, and impact on the growth of probiotics

open access: yesFood Chemistry: X
This study investigated the effects of galactooligosaccharide (GOS) purity (80 % and 95 %) and heating time (60 and 150 min) on characterization and bioactivities of Maillard reaction products (MRPs) formed by conjugating tilapia scale collagen peptides ...

Recent progresses of collagen dressings for chronic skin wound healing

open access: yesCollagen and Leather, 2023
The skin plays a fundamental role in regulating the body’s internal balance and protecting against external traumas. A broad variety of environmental risk factors frequently result in acute skin wounds, whose inappropriate treatments would lead to ...

Second-harmonic generation microscopy analysis reveals proteoglycan decorin is necessary for proper collagen organization in prostate. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Collagen remodeling occurs in many prostate pathologies; however, the underlying structural architecture in both normal and diseased prostatic tissues is largely unexplored.

Biocompatibility and tissue regenerating capacity of crosslinked dermal sheep collagen [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
The biocompatibility and tissue regenerating capacity of four crosslinked dermal sheep collagens (DSC) was studied. In vitro, the four DSC versions were found to be noncytotoxic or very low in cytoxicity.

Application of Collagen Scaffold in Tissue Engineering: Recent Advances and New Perspectives

open access: yesPolymers, 2016
Collagen is the main structural protein of most hard and soft tissues in animals and the human body, which plays an important role in maintaining the biological and structural integrity of the extracellular matrix (ECM) and provides physical support to ...

Dietary nitrate and nitrite protect against doxorubicin‐induced cardiac fibrosis and oxidative protein damage in tumor‐bearing mice

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Chemotherapies such as doxorubicin can have toxic effects on healthy cardiovascular/heart tissue. Following up on a doxorubicin toxicity study in mice without tumors where nitrate water was cardioprotective (lessened toxicity), this study with tumor‐bearing mice undergoing doxorubicin treatment showed no negative effect of nitrate and nitrite on drug ...

Marine Resources Gels as Main Ingredient for Wound Healing Biomaterials: Obtaining and Characterization

open access: yesGels
The skin, known as the largest organ of the body, is essential for maintaining physiological balance and acts as a barrier against the external environment.
