Distinct functions of integrin alpha and beta subunit cytoplasmic domains in cell spreading and formation of focal adhesions. [PDF]
Integrin-mediated cell adhesion often results in cell spreading and the formation of focal adhesions. We exploited the capacity of recombinant human alpha IIb beta 3 integrin to endow heterologous cells with the ability to adhere and spread on fibrinogen

Si3N4‐enhanced bioactive nanostructured adhesive wrap enables rapid conduit formation in wet environments, simplifying surgical procedures. Incorporated Si3N4 undergoes controlled hydrolysis within nanofibers, multi‐directionally modulating the peripheral nerve repair microenvironment for effective suture‐free repair.

Platelet Adhesion under Flow [PDF]
ABSTRACTPlatelet‐adhesive mechanisms play a well‐defined role in hemostasis and thrombosis, but evidence continues to emerge for a relevant contribution to other pathophysiological processes, including inflammation, immune‐mediated responses to microbial and viral pathogens, and cancer metastasis.

Bio‐based and (semi‐)synthetic zwitterion‐modified novel materials and fully synthetic next‐generation alternatives show the importance of material design for different biomedical applications. The zwitterionic character affects the physiochemical behavior of the material and deepens the understanding of chemical interaction mechanisms within the ...

Apatite occurs in many forms in nature, e.g. in teeth and geological minerals. Internally, biological apatite contains nanocrystals that are also found in synthetically prepared calcium phosphate nanoparticles which are used in biomedicine, e.g. for gene and drug delivery and for bone regeneration. Abstract Calcium phosphate is the inorganic component (

Relevance of Polypill for Primary Prevention of Cardiovascular Diseases in the 21st Century
Polypill, as a fixed dose combination of cardioprotective therapies, has been developed for primary prevention of cardiovascular diseases (CVD) with the premise that raised blood pressure, LDL cholesterol, and platelet adhesiveness are the prime culprits.

Late recurrence of a malignant hypoglycemia‑inducing pelvic solitary fibrous tumor secreting high‑molecular‑weight insulin‑like growth factor‑II: A case report with protein analysis [PDF]
The present study reports a case of recurrent malignant pelvic solitary fibrous tumor (SFT) that induced non-islet cell tumor hypoglycemia via high-molecular-weight insulin-like growth factor-II in a 72-year-old male patient. The tumor recurred ~12 years
