Extracellular Matrix Components and Mechanosensing Pathways in Health and Disease
Glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) and proteoglycans (PGs) are essential components of the extracellular matrix (ECM) with pivotal roles in cellular mechanosensing pathways.

Spatial and temporal changes in the distribution of proteoglycans during avian neural crest development [PDF]
In this study, we describe the distribution of various classes of proteoglycans and their potential matrix ligand, hyaluronan, during neural crest development in the trunk region of the chicken embryo.

Nanoclay‐Engineered Scaffolds for the Controlled Delivery of Biomolecules in Regenerative Medicine
ABSTRACT Regenerative medicine combines biomaterials, cells, scaffolds, and bioactive agents via modern technologies to aid in the reconstruction and repair of damaged tissues. Among these, nanoclay scaffolds have demonstrated unique advantages in facilitating the delivery of therapeutic agents.

Characterization of the extracellular matrix from human and dog umbilical cords
Abstract The extracellular matrix is important for maintaining tissue morphogenesis and homeostasis; it can also be used as a biomaterial for the production of biological scaffolds. Particularly, the umbilical cord has shown potential in the production of scaffolds for small‐diameter vessels.

Possible therapeutic repositioning of valproic acid: From epileptic seizures to acute kidney injury
Valproic acid, an anticonvulsant, may be repositioned to prevent acute kidney injury due to ischemia followed by reperfusion. It preserves renal functions, electrolyte homeostasis and active sodium transport in kidney tubules, and blocks the onset of hypertension.
