Proteomic exploration of potential blood biomarkers in haemophilic arthropathy
Abstract Background and Aims The pathophysiology of haemophilic arthropathy (HA) is complex and largely undefined. Proteomic analyses provide insights into the intricate mechanisms of the HA. Our study aimed to identify differentially expressed proteins in relation to the severity of HA, explore their pathophysiological roles, and evaluate their ...

This study examined the effects of metformin (MF) and trodusquemine (MSI‐1436) on the livers of young, developing mice. We discovered that MSI‐1436 significantly alters mRNA and miRNA expression more potently than MF, impacting key metabolic pathways.

Scale‐Dependent Rheology of Synovial Fluid Lubricating Macromolecules
A multiscale methodology using optical tweezers is developed to examine the interactions between hyaluronic acid (HA) and proteoglycan‐4 (PRG4/lubricin), which are major lubricating biomolecules of synovial fluid in the joints. For the first time, the length scale dependent structure and rheology in solution are characterized, providing a framework for

Proteoglycan 4 (PRG4) treatment improves skin wound healing in a porcine model
Proteoglycan 4 (PRG4) is commonly found in synovial fluid of the articular joint and serves as a boundary lubricant of articular cartilage. Interestingly, we show that human recombinant proteoglycan 4 (rhPRG4) improves healing of porcine full‐thickness skin injuries. rhPRG4 treatment decreases fibrosis, increases vascularization, and retains adipocytes

Many hormones are involved in the complex process of formation and resorption of bone. However, only somatomedin is found to directly stimulate cell replication and collagen synthesis in bone.

Although islet transplantation has the potential to serve as a curative treatment for type 1 diabetes, there are many hurdles to achieving long‐term islet graft survival. This review discusses the recent advances in strategies to improve islet survival function using exogenous compounds and conformal coatings as a promising tool for improving islet ...

Presence of somatomedin receptors on primary human breast and colon carcinomas
Competitive binding techniques were used to study the interaction of insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) with a plasma membrane-enriched subcellular fraction purified from primary breast and colon carcinoma specimens obtained at surgery. The presence of

Insulin-like growth factor 1 and growth hormone in chronic liver disease.
Somatomedins or insulin-like growth factors (IGF) are peptides synthesized in the liver. IGFs have different anabolic and metabolic actions and are important in normal growth and development.
