Role of growth factors in the pathogenesis of tissue fibrosis in systemic sclerosis. [PDF]
The most severe clinical and pathologic manifestations of systemic sclerosis (SSc) are the result of a fibrotic process characterized by the excessive and often progressive deposition of collagen and other connective tissue macromolecules in skin and ...

Structures of a platelet-derived growth factor/propeptide complex and a platelet-derived growth factor/receptor complex [PDF]
Platelet-derived growth factors (PDGFs) and their receptors (PDGFRs) are prototypic growth factors and receptor tyrosine kinases which have critical functions in development. We show that PDGFs share a conserved region in their prodomain sequences which can remain noncovalently associated with the mature cystine-knot growth factor domain after ...

Activation of multiple growth factor signalling pathways is frequent in meningiomas [PDF]
A minority of meningiomas are difficult to treat with surgery or radiotherapy, and chemotherapeutic alternatives are limited. This study aims to better understand pathways that are active in meningiomas, in order to direct future treatment strategies. We

Imatinib- and Nilotinib-Induced Lichenoid Eruption in Chronic Myeloid Leukemia: A Rare Case Report
Imatinib and nilotinib are inhibitors of tyrosine kinases (TKIs) generated from the bcr-abl fusion protein, c-Kit, and platelet-derived growth factor receptors. Cutaneous adverse effects (AEs) of TKI are the most frequent non-hematological sequelae.

Platelet Biochemistry and Morphology after Cryopreservation [PDF]
Platelet cryopreservation has been investigated for several decades as an alternative to room temperature storage of platelet concentrates. The use of dimethylsulfoxide as a cryoprotectant has improved platelet storage and cryopreserved concentrates can ...

Papillomavirus E5: the smallest oncoprotein with many functions [PDF]
Papillomaviruses (PVs) are established agents of human and animal cancers. They infect cutaneous and mucous epithelia. High Risk (HR) Human PVs (HPVs) are consistently associated with cancer of the uterine cervix, but are also involved in the ...
