Translational Considerations for Injectable Biomaterials and Bioscaffolds to Repair and Regenerate Brain Tissue

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
The repair and regeneration of brain tissue faces both biological and technical challenges. Injectable bioscaffolds offer new opportunities to stimulate tissue regrowth in the brain by recruiting neural stem cells. Here, the translational issues are reviewed that need to be address to advance this promising new therapeutic approach from the bench to ...

Inactivation of tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase‐1 by peroxynitrite [PDF]

FEBS Letters, 1996
Peroxynitrate (ONOO−) has recently been implicated in connective tissue destruction in vivo. We have studied the effect of ONOO− on the activity of tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase‐1 (TIMP‐1) in vitro. The inactivation of TIMP‐1 by ONOO− was dose dependent with 50 μM ONOO− reducing the inhibitory activity of TIMP‐1 towards gelatinase‐A by 50 ...
