Fibroblast Attachment Sites on Tropoelastin [PDF]

, 2018
Tropoelastin is the dominant monomer that assembles to form elastin, which confers elasticity to vertebrate elastic tissues including skin, arteries and lungs. This thesis explores regions in tropoelastin that are involved in cell binding.

Cell binding to recombinant human tropoelastin.

, 2015
(A) Relative attachment of human dermal fibrolasts, EPCs and human coronary artery smooth muscle cells (SMC) to increasing concentrations of tropoelastin. (B) The percentage of spread EPCs on increasing concentrations of tropoelastin.

Elastogenic protein expression of a highly elastic murine spinal ligament: the ligamentum flavum.

PLoS ONE, 2012
Spinal ligaments, such as the ligamentum flavum (LF), are prone to degeneration and iatrogenic injury that can lead to back pain and nerve dysfunction. Repair and regeneration strategies for these tissues are lacking, perhaps due to limited understanding

UVA Exposure Combined with Glycation of the Dermis Are Two Catalysts for Skin Aging and Promotes a Favorable Environment to the Appearance of Elastosis

Journal of Aging Research, 2021
Skin aging is the result of superimposed intrinsic (individual) and extrinsic (e.g., UV exposure or nutrition) aging. Previous works have reported a relationship between UV irradiation and glycation in the aging process, leading, for example, to modified

Regeneration of an Extracellular Matrix Ecosystem Following Subcutaneous Injection With Different Radiesse Dilutions: A Histologic and Ultrasound Study

Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology, Volume 25, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Calcium hydroxylapatite‐carboxymethylcellulose (CaHA‐CMC) stimulates neocollagenesis across a range of dilutions; however, the magnitude and temporal profile of this bioregenerative response have not yet been comprehensively examined.

Alveolarization genes modulated by fetal tracheal occlusion in the rabbit model for congenital diaphragmatic hernia: a randomized study. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
BACKGROUND: The mechanisms by which tracheal occlusion (TO) improves alveolarization in congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) are incompletely understood.

Application of a novel ingredient Blend promotes hair growth by modulating Wnt/β‐catenin signaling, DP inductivity, and boosting elastin expression in healthy human scalp hair follicles ex vivo

Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology, Volume 25, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Objectives Elastin is an emerging yet underexplored regulator of human hair follicle (HF) physiology. This study evaluated a novel multi‐compound Blend for its elastogenic and hair growth–promoting effects in ex vivo human HFs, compared with isopropyl cloprostenate (IPC), a prostaglandin analog used in cosmetic lash growth formulations ...

Molecular Orientation of Tropoelastin is Determined by Surface Hydrophobicity

, 2016
Tropoelastin is the precursor of the extracellular protein elastin and is utilized in tissue engineering and implant technology by adapting the interface presented by surface-bound tropoelastin.

PKCε Increases Extracellular Elastin and Fibulin-5/DANCE in Dermal Fibroblasts

Cellular Physiology and Biochemistry, 2018
Background/Aims: In the earlier study, the selective PKCε activator DCP-LA increased elastic fibres in the dermis of HR-1 hairless mice. As a process of elastic fibre formation, tropoelastin, an elastin monomer, is secreted into the extracellular space ...

Tissue Engineered Human Elastic Cartilage From Primary Auricular Chondrocytes for Ear Reconstruction

Advanced Functional Materials, Volume 36, Issue 36, 4 May 2026.
Despite over three decades of research, no tissue‐engineered solution for auricular reconstruction in microtia patients has reached clinical translation. The key challenge lies in generating functional elastic cartilage ex vivo. Here, we integrate synergistic cell‐biomaterial strategies to engineer auricular grafts with mechanical and histological ...
