A fibrocontractive mechanochemical model of dermal wound\ud closure incorporating realistic growth factor kinetics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Fibroblasts and their activated phenotype, myofibroblasts, are the primary cell types involved in the contraction associated with dermal wound healing.

Immunomodulatory properties of mesenchymal stem cells: Cytokines and factors

open access: yes, 2012
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are defined as undifferentiated cells that are capable of self renewal and differentiation into several cell types such as chondrocyte, adipocyte, osteocyte, myocyte, hepatocyte, and neuron-like cells.

Gene Expression and the Physiological Role of Transforming Growth Factor-α in the Mouse Pituitary [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Transforming growth factor-alpha (TGF-alpha), a member of the epidermal growth factor (EGF) family, is produced within the mouse anterior pituitaries. However, the cell types of TGF-alpha-expressing cells and the physiological roles of TGF-a within mouse

An upstream open reading frame regulates expression of the mitochondrial protein Slm35 and mitophagy flux

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This study reveals how the mitochondrial protein Slm35 is regulated in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The authors identify stress‐responsive DNA elements and two upstream open reading frames (uORFs) in the 5′ untranslated region of SLM35. One uORF restricts translation, and its mutation increases Slm35 protein levels and mitophagy.

Putative functions of extracellular matrix glycoproteins in secondary palate morphogenesis

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2012
Cleft palate is a common birth defect in humans. Elevation and fusion of paired palatal shelves are coordinated by growth and transcription factors, and mutations in these can cause malformations.

Immunohistological localisation of growth factors in stroma and interstitial gland tissue of goat (Capra hircus) ovary

open access: yesBulgarian Journal of Veterinary Medicine, 2021
The growth factors platelet derived growth factor (PDGF), transforming growth factor alpha (TGF-α) and transforming growth factor beta (TGF-β) have been demonstrated to stimulate the in vitro proliferation of theca and granulosa cells in different ...

Screening for candidate hepatic growth factors by selective portal infusion after canine Eck's fistula [PDF]

open access: yes, 1991
Completely diverting portacaval shunt (Eck's fistula) in dogs causes hepatocyte atrophy, disruption of hepatocyte organelles, fatty infiltration and lowgrade hyperplasia. The effect of hepatic growth regulatory substances on these changes was assessed by

Sequence determinants of RNA G‐quadruplex unfolding by Arg‐rich regions

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We show that Arg‐rich peptides selectively unfold RNA G‐quadruplexes, but not RNA stem‐loops or DNA/RNA duplexes. This length‐dependent activity is inhibited by acidic residues and is conserved among SR and SR‐related proteins (SRSF1, SRSF3, SRSF9, U1‐70K, and U2AF1).

Immunohistochemical Expression of TGF-β1 and Osteonectin in engineered and Ca(OH)2-repaired human pulp tissues

open access: yesBrazilian Oral Research
The aim of the present study was to evaluate the expression of transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) and osteonectin (ON) in pulp-like tissues developed by tissue engineering and to compare it with the expression of these proteins in pulps treated with ...
