Evaluation of corneal cell growth on tissue engineering materials as artificial cornea scaffolds
International Journal of Ophthalmology, 2013 The keratoprosthesis (KPro; artificial cornea) is a special refractive device to replace human cornea by using heterogeneous forming materials for the implantation into the damaged eyes in order to obtain a certain vision. The main problems of artificial

A Model for Compression-Weakening Materials and the Elastic Fields due to Contractile Cells [PDF]
, 2015 We construct a homogeneous, nonlinear elastic constitutive law, that models aspects of the mechanical behavior of inhomogeneous fibrin networks. Fibers in such networks buckle when in compression.

Frontiers in Immunology, 2019 Staphylococcus aureus causes localized infections or invasive diseases (abscesses or endocarditis). One of its virulence factors is staphylocoagulase (SCG), which binds prothrombin to form a complex with thrombin-like proteolytic activity and leads to ...

Comparison of the collagen haemostat Sangustop(R) versus a carrier-bound fibrin sealant during liver resection; ESSCALIVER-study [PDF]
, 2010 Background: Haemostasis in liver surgery remains a challenge despite improved resection techniques. Oozing from blood vessels too small to be ligated necessitate a treatment with haemostats in order to prevent complications attributed to bleeding.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1979 High-symmetry models of the fibrin fiber are proposed that reproduce the experimentally observed high specific volume of the fiber. The models meet the following criteria: fibrin monomers have the three-domain Hall and Slayter structure; the monomers are arranged lengthwise into strands (protofibrils) in which successive monomers half overlap; the ...

3D Bioprinting Mesenchymal Stem Cell-Derived Neural Tissues Using a Fibrin-Based Bioink
Biomolecules, 2021 Current treatments for neurodegenerative diseases aim to alleviate the symptoms experienced by patients; however, these treatments do not cure the disease nor prevent further degeneration.

Non-canonical proteolytic activation of human prothrombin by subtilisin from Bacillus subtilis may shift the procoagulant\ue2\u80\u93anticoagulant equilibrium toward thrombosis [PDF]
, 2017 Blood coagulation is a finely regulated physiological process culminating with the factor Xa (FXa)-mediated conversion of the prothrombin (ProT) zymogen to active -thrombin (T).

Fibrin Gel Ultrastructure [PDF]
Biophysical Journal, 2010 Ischemic heart disease, which results from occlusion of one of the major coronary arteries as a consequence of thrombi and atherosclerotic plaque, continues to be the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in Western society, while stroke is the second leading cause of death worldwide.
