Biomarkers of Skin Graft Healing in Venous Leg Ulcers
Acta Dermato-Venereologica, 2022 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

A Proteinase and Proteinase Inhibitor of Mammalian Sperm Acrosomes [PDF]
Biology of Reproduction, 1973 Acrosomal extracts of epididymal boar and epididymal and ejaculated rooster spermatozoa possess high proteinase (acrosin) activity. Less activity is present in extracts from ejaculated human, monkey, and ram sperm or epididymal rabbit, stallion, and ram sperm, and virtually none can be found in extracts at neutral pH of ejaculated sperm of the rabbit ...

A confederacy of proteinases [PDF]
Journal of Clinical Investigation, 2002 The demolition of large buildings can be accomplished by a single explosive agent destroying a single class of structural components, namely weight-bearing beams. Although the breakdown of tissues in disease has often been conceived to occur in an analogous manner, with a single proteinase degrading a single structural ECM protein, it has become clear ...

Characterization of lactococci isolated from homemade kefir [PDF]
Archives of Biological Sciences, 2007 Five bacteriocin-producing lactococci isolates from traditionally prepared kefir were determined as Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis. The analyzed isolates showed different plasmid profiles and no cross inhibition between them was detected.
