Plasminogen activation in melanocytic neoplasia

open access: yes, 1994
A large body of experimental evidence suggests that plasminogen activators provide tumoral cells with efficient means to degrade extracellular matrix constituents and thereby facilitate their dissemination to distant sites.

The effect of the environment on plasminogen activators and inhibitors

open access: yes, 1998
The aims of this project were to develop a reliable assay for the investigation of small changes in mRNA expression of tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) and Plasminogen Activator Inhibitor (PAI-1) in endothelial cell as a response to changes in ...

Etiology, pathogenesis and treatment of peri‐implantitis: A European perspective

open access: yesPeriodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Peri‐implantitis is a plaque‐associated pathological condition occurring in tissues around dental implants. It is characterized by inflammation in the peri‐implant mucosa and progressive loss of supporting bone. Over the last 30 years, peri‐implantitis has become a major disease burden in dentistry.

Genetic risk variants implicate impaired maintenance and repair of periodontal tissues as causal for periodontitis—A synthesis of recent findings

open access: yesPeriodontology 2000, EarlyView.
AbstractPeriodontitis is a complex inflammatory disease in which the host genome, in conjunction with extrinsic factors, determines susceptibility and progression. Genetic predisposition is the strongest risk factor in the first decades of life. As people age, chronic exposure to the periodontal microbiome puts a strain on the proper maintenance of ...
