Investigating the Role of (2S,4R)‑4-Hydroxyproline in Elastin Model Peptides

, 2016
Post-translational modifications play a key role in defining the biological functions of proteins. Among them, the hydroxylation of proline producing the (2S,4R)-4-hydroxyproline (Hyp) is one of the most frequent modifications observed in vertebrates ...

Ocular Manifestations of Infectious Salmon Anaemia Virus Infection in Atlantic Salmon (Salmo salar)

Journal of Fish Diseases, Volume 49, Issue 11, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Eyes are essential sensory organs needed by teleost Atlantic salmon for high visual acuity and survival in both the wild and in aquaculture settings. In this work, we assessed the ocular manifestations of Infectious Salmon Anaemia Virus (ISAV) infection in Atlantic salmon by a cohabitation‐mediated infection assay and histological and ...

Molecular-level characterization of elastin-like constructs and human aortic elastin

, 2014
International audienceThis study aimed to characterize the structures of two elastin-like constructs, one composed of a cross-linked elastin-like polypeptide and the other one of cross-linked tropoelastin, and native aortic elastin. The structures of the

Endothelial Matrin‐3 Limits Cellular Senescence and Lipid Dysregulation to Protect Against Murine Atherosclerosis

The FASEB Journal, Volume 40, Issue 20, 31 October 2026.
Endothelial Matrin‐3 suppresses cellular senescence and protects against atherosclerosis. Matrin‐3 deficiency induces endothelial senescence, mitochondrial dysfunction, and activation of p53‐, cell cycle‐, and senescence‐related pathways. In atherosclerosis‐prone mice, endothelial Matrin‐3 deletion promotes atherosclerotic lesion formation and disrupts

Elastin-Derived Peptides Induce Inflammatory Responses through the Activation of NF-kappa B in Human Ligamentum Flavum Cells

, 2014
The formation of fibrotic tissue in the ligamentum flavum (LF) is usually preceded by breakdown of elastic fibers. Elastin-derived peptides (EDPs) from breakdown of elastic fibers display a wide range of biological activities in a variety of cells, but ...

Effect of elastin peptides on the production of matrix metalloproteinase 2 by human skin fibroblasts in culture

, 2001
International audienceSoluble elastin-derived peptides from alkaline or elastase hydrolysis of insoluble elastin, as well as tropoelastin, increase matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2) production by human skin fibroblasts in culture as determined by ...

Cumulative influence of elastin peptides and plasminogen on matrix metalloproteinase activation and type I collagen invasion by HT-1080 fibrosarcoma cells.

, 2002
HT-1080 fibrosarcoma cells express at their plasma membrane the elastin-binding protein (EBP). Occupancy of EBP by elastin fragments, tropoelastin or XGVAPG peptides was found to trigger procollagenase-1 (proMMP-1) overproduction by HT-1080 cells at the ...
