Calcium silicate bioactive ceramics induce osteogenesis through oncostatin M
Immune reactions are a key factor in determining the destiny of bone substitute materials after implantation. Macrophages, the most vital factor in the immune response affecting implants, are critical in bone formation, as well as bone biomaterial ...

Narrative-based computational modelling of the Gp130/JAK/STAT signalling pathway. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Appropriately formulated quantitative computational models can support researchers in understanding the dynamic behaviour of biological pathways and support hypothesis formulation and selection by "in silico" experimentation.

Signaling network of Oncostatin M pathway [PDF]
Oncostatin M (OSM), belonging to the IL-6 family of cytokines (Heinrich et al. 2003), was first reported and purified from U937 monocytic cells (Zarling et al. 1986; Ensoli et al. 1999; Hasegawa et al. 1999). In normal physiological condition, OSM is associated with multiple biological processes and cellular responses including growth, differentiation,

The accumulation of extracellular matrix in lung diseases involves numerous factors, including cytokines and chemokines that participate in cell activation in lung tissues and the circulation of fibrocytes that contribute to local fibrotic responses. The

Summary: In skeletal muscle, new functions for vessels have recently emerged beyond oxygen and nutrient supply, through the interactions that vascular cells establish with muscle stem cells. Here, we demonstrate in human and mouse that endothelial cells (

Interleukin-7 deficiency in rheumatoid arthritis: consequences for therapy-induced lymphopenia [PDF]
We previously demonstrated prolonged, profound CD4+ T-lymphopenia in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients following lymphocyte-depleting therapy. Poor reconstitution could result either from reduced de novo T-cell production through the thymus or from poor

The ADAMTS (A Disintegrin and Metalloproteinase with Thrombospondin motifs) family [PDF]
The ADAMTS (A Disintegrin and Metalloproteinase with Thrombospondin motifs) enzymes are secreted, multi-domain matrix-associated zinc metalloendopeptidases that have diverse roles in tissue morphogenesis and patho-physiological remodeling, in ...

ADAMTS proteinases: a multi-domain, multi-functional family with roles in extracellular matrix turnover and arthritis [PDF]
Members of the ADAMTS (a disintegrin and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin motifs) family are known to influence development, angiogenesis, coagulation and progression of arthritis.

The novel mTOR inhibitor RAD001 (Everolimus) induces antiproliferative effects in human pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor cells [PDF]
Background/Aim: Tumors exhibiting constitutively activated PI(3) K/Akt/mTOR signaling are hypersensitive to mTOR inhibitors such as RAD001 (everolimus) which is presently being investigated in clinical phase II trials in various tumor entities, including

Recent evidence suggests the possibility that macrophages can influence lipoprotein metabolism. Therefore we investigated the ability of cultured macrophages to alter low density lipoprotein (LDL) uptake in a human liver cell line (HepG2).
