Biomarkers of Skin Graft Healing in Venous Leg Ulcers
There is a need for biomarkers that predict the success of transplantation of venous leg ulcers (with autologous split-thickness skin grafts). The primary objective of this exploratory study was to investigate the association between split-thickness skin

MMP-1 activation contributes to airway smooth muscle growth and asthma severity [PDF]
Introduction: Matrix metalloproteinase-1 and mast cells are present in the airways of people with asthma. We hypothesised that matrix metalloproteinase-1 could be activated by mast cells and increase asthma severity.
