Effect of Acellular Amnion With Increased TGF-β and bFGF Levels on the Biological Behavior of Tenocytes

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2020
The human amniotic membrane has been a subject for clinical and basic research for nearly 100 years, but weak rejection has been reported. The purpose of this research is to remove the cellular components of the amnion for eliminating its immune-inducing

Cytokines and growth factors cross-link heparan sulfate [PDF]

open access: yesOpen Biology, 2015
The glycosaminoglycan heparan sulfate (HS), present at the surface of most cells and ubiquitous in extracellular matrix, binds many soluble extracellular signalling molecules such as chemokines and growth factors, and regulates their transport and ...

Autocrine regulation of asthmatic airway inflammation: role of airway smooth muscle

open access: yesRespiratory Research, 2001
Chronic airway inflammation is one of the main features of asthma. Release of mediators from infiltrating inflammatory cells in the airway mucosa has been proposed to contribute directly or indirectly to changes in airway structure and function.

Growth Factors

open access: yes, 2006
The most exciting recent advances in skeletal growth factor biology have emerged from genetic and transgenic approaches, and these have greatly enhanced our understanding of the role played by growth factors in the developing and adult skeleton. A more coherent picture of the interplay between different hormones, growth factors, and cytokines during ...

Population and species neighbor identity impact trait–trait relationships and plant performance

open access: yesPopulation Ecology, EarlyView.
We evaluated how populations and species identity influence plant performance and trait outcomes in mixtures, and assessed trait variation among populations of two forb species native to the western United States (Dieteria canescens and Heterotheca villosa) following three interaction treatments (single‐population monoculture, two‐population mixture ...

ALK activation, ligands and therapeutic targets in glioblastoma and other cancers

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2012
The intracellular anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) fragment shows striking homology with members of the insulin receptor family and was initially identified as an oncogenic fusion protein resulting from a translocation in lymphoma and more recently in a ...

Effects of chronic browsing on life‐history traits of an irruptive large herbivore population

open access: yesPopulation Ecology, EarlyView.
This study aimed to determine the relationship between diet quality, body mass, and size (hind foot length), and female reproduction and sought to identify the mechanism by which high density under severe food limitations is maintained. Our results demonstrated that sika deer introduced to Nakanoshima Island have maintained high densities through high ...

The effect of hyaluronic acid conditioned media on hDPSCs differentiation through CD44 and transforming growth factor-β1 expressions

open access: yesJournal of Advanced Pharmaceutical Technology & Research, 2023
Hyaluronic acid (HA) has the capability to influence dentin niche which is important in regenerative process. The CD44 as a specific receptor of HA was found to be related to dentin mineralization process. Meanwhile, transforming growth factor β1 (TGF-β1)
