The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Cells derived from the endocardium, epicardium, cardiac neural crest, and second heart field play a critical role in the formation of the valvuloseptal structures of the heart. Previous studies have shown that the expression of the transcription factor SOX9 in these cell populations is essential in the regulation of this process.

mRNA expression for versican isoforms in temporomandibular joint discs of growing rats : Analysis using real-time quantitative PCR with the TaqMan prove [PDF]
, 2005 P(論文)Versican is a large chondroitin sulphate proteoglycan distributed in a variety of interstitial connective tissue. Versican is thought to be involved in extracellular matrix assembly and various biological cellular interactions.

Versican/Collagen Interactions in Tissue Structure and Mechanics [PDF]
, 2021 Type I collagen is the most abundant structural protein in the extracellular matrix (ECM), forming a dynamic 3D fibrous network that is highly regulated by other ECM components including proteoglycans (PGs) and glycosaminoglycans (GAGs).

Oocyte–cumulus cell interaction: a key factor in early embryo development
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The evaluation of oocyte competence is a fundamental step in achieving successful outcomes following assisted reproduction techniques (ART). At present, however, conventional oocyte maturation assessment is carried out by morphological observation, which is a subjective method that does not consider molecular features.

Histopathologic Analysis of the Morpho‐Functional Zones of the Human Acetabular Labrum
Clinical Anatomy, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The structural and functional adaptation of soft tissues to mechanical load controls their ability to withstand injury and influences their capacity for healing. Similar to the knee meniscus, the acetabular labrum exhibits zonal differences in mechanical load distribution, resulting in distinct regions with unique structural and functional ...

Context-dependent bioactivity of versican fragments
Glycobiology, 2019 AbstractVersican (VCAN) proteolysis and the accumulation of VCAN fragments occur in many developmental and disease processes, affecting extracellular matrix (ECM) structure and cell phenotype. Little is known about the significance of proteolysis and the roles of fragments, or how this ECM remodeling affects the microenvironment and phenotype of ...

Proteomic signatures of equine dental tooth tissues in ageing and disease
Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.Abstract Background Ageing and dental disease in horses lead to structural and functional deterioration of dental tissues, yet their molecular signatures remain poorly characterised. Understanding how these processes alter the protein composition of enamel, dentin, cementum and pulp is essential for improving equine oral health and identifying ...
