Tuning self-assembly in elastin-derived peptides

, 2015
Elastin-derived peptides are gaining increasing interest as potential biomaterials. Previous studies have demonstrated that short elastin-derived peptides are able to self-assemble into fibrils as the entire elastin protein.

Effect of proline analogues on the conformation of elastin peptides

, 2013
Three elastin model peptides containing the repetitive motif –VGVXGVG–, where X corresponds to (2S)-proline (Pro), (2S,4R)-4-hydroxy-proline (Hyp) and (2S,4R)-4-methoxy-proline (Mop), were synthesized in order to define the effect of the introduction ...

Extracellular matrix remodeling and immune reprogramming drive residual tumor progression of liver cancer after incomplete microwave ablation

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Incomplete microwave ablation (iMWA) of liver cancer triggers a biphasic progression in residual tumors. At Day 3, the microenvironment is characterized by acute inflammatory responses and extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling. By Day 14, a profound shift occurs toward oncogenic signal transduction and immunosuppression, marked by macrophage ...
