Integrin beta8 (ITGB8) activates VAV-RAC1 signaling via FAK in the acquisition of endometrial epithelial cell receptivity for blastocyst implantation

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
Integrin beta8 (ITGB8) is involved in the endometrial receptivity. The blastocyst first interacts with the luminal endometrial epithelial cells during its implantation; therefore, we have investigated the signaling of ITGB8 via FAK and VAV-RAC1 in the ...

Inhalation of Low Molecular Weight Heparins as Prophylaxis against SARS-CoV-2

open access: yesmBio, 2022
New SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern and waning immunity demonstrate the need for a quick and simple prophylactic agent to prevent infection. Low molecular weight heparins (LMWH) are potent inhibitors of SARS-CoV-2 binding and infection in vitro.

Anterior lens epithelial cells attachment to the basal lamina [PDF]

open access: yesActa Ophthalmologica, 2014
AbstractPurposeTo study the structure of the anterior lens epithelial cells (aLECs) and the contacts of the aLECs with the basal lamina (BL) in order to understand their role in the lens epithelium's function.MethodsThe aLCs (BL and associated aLECs) were obtained from routine uneventful cataract surgery, prepared for and studied by scanning electron ...

Uterine epithelial Gp130 orchestrates hormone response and epithelial remodeling for successful embryo attachment in mice

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF) receptor, an interleukin 6 cytokine family signal transducer (Il6st, also known as Gp130) that is expressed in the uterine epithelium and stroma, has been recognized to play an essential role in embryo implantation ...

Intraosseous transcutaneous amputation prostheses versus dental implants: A comparison between keratinocyte and gingival epithelial cell adhesion in vitro [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Cells & Materials, 2015
Infection is the primary failure modality for transcutaneous implants because the skin breach provides a route for pathogens to enter the body. Intraosseous transcutaneous amputation prostheses (ITAP) are being developed to overcome this problem by ...

Attachment of Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli to Host Cells Reduces O Antigen Chain Length at the Infection Site That Promotes Infection

open access: yesmBio, 2021
Many enteropathogenic bacteria express a needle-like type III secretion system (T3SS) that translocates effectors into host cells promoting infection.

Roles of TGFβ and FGF signals during growth and differentiation of mouse lens epithelial cell in vitro. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Transforming growth factor β (TGFβ) and fibroblast growth factor (FGF) signaling pathways play important roles in the proliferation and differentiation of lens epithelial cells (LECs) during development.
