The extracellular matrix in multiple sclerosis: an update

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2001
Extracellular matrix (ECM) molecules play important roles in the pathobiology of the major human central nervous system (CNS) inflammatory/demyelinating disease multiple sclerosis (MS). This mini-review highlights some recent work on CNS endothelial cell

Modulating Integrin and Growth Factor Signaling With Peptides: Strategies to Synergistically Enhance Bone Tissue Regeneration

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
It has been demonstrated that, in the bone extracellular matrix (ECM), integrins and growth factor receptors (GFRs) engage in synergistic signaling to guide bone healing and regeneration. This review provides a comprehensive overview of current strategies using ECM‐derived peptides to recreate the cellular microenvironment and harness synergistic ...

Specificity of lipoprotein lipase binding to endothelial cells.

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1993
Lipoprotein lipase (LPL) hydrolyzes circulating lipoprotein triglyceride molecules while it is associated with the luminal surface of capillary endothelial cells. The precise molecular mechanism by which LPL attaches to these cells is unknown.

Bioinspired Tissue Transparency: Achieving Sclera‐to‐Cornea Transplantation

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A bioinspired decellularization‐compression‐locking tactic (DCLT) is developed to transform human sclerae into transparent corneal substitutes. These clear, robust, and pro‐regenerative substitutes are capable of repairing complex corneal injuries, including chemical burns, keratoconus, and penetrating wounds, demonstrating their clinical potential to ...

Association Between Serum Syndecan 1 Levels and Metabolic Syndrome Parameters: A Comparative Cross‐Sectional Study

open access: yesEndocrinology, Diabetes & Metabolism
Introduction Previous studies have linked Syndecans (SDCs) to hypertension (HTN), BMI and the prevalence of coronary artery disease (CAD). The relationship between SDCs and metabolic syndrome (MetS) has not been explored.

Proteoglycans and Immunobiology of Cancer—Therapeutic Implications

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2019
Disparity during the resolution of inflammation is closely related with the initiation and progression of the tumorigenesis. The transformed cells, through continuously evolving interactions, participate in various exchanges with the surrounding ...
