No specific or efficient treatment exists for Alport syndrome, an X-linked hereditary disease caused by mutations in collagen type IV, a crucial component of the glomerular basement membrane. Kidney failure is usually a major complication of the disease, and...

Attachment, Growth, and Detachment of Human Mesenchymal Stem Cells in a Chemically Defined Medium.

Stem cells international

Salzig D, Leber J, Merkewitz K, Lange MC, Köster N, Czermak P.
PMID: 27006663
Stem Cells Int. 2016;2016:5246584. doi: 10.1155/2016/5246584. Epub 2016 Feb 23.

The manufacture of human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) for clinical applications requires an appropriate growth surface and an optimized, preferably chemically defined medium (CDM) for expansion. We investigated a new protein/peptide-free CDM that supports the adhesion, growth, and detachment...

Vasc Cell. 2014 Nov 01;6:22. doi: 10.1186/2045-824X-6-22. eCollection 2014.

BACKGROUND: The complex endocrine and exocrine functionality of the human pancreas depends on an efficient fluid transport through the blood and the lymphatic vascular systems. The lymphatic vasculature has key roles in the physiology of the pancreas and in...

Tocotrienol alleviates inflammation and oxidative stress in a rat model of spinal cord injury via suppression of transforming growth factor-β.

Experimental and therapeutic medicine

Xun C, Mamat M, Guo H, Mamati P, Sheng J, Zhang J, Xu T, Liang W, Cao R, Sheng W.
PMID: 28672950
Exp Ther Med. 2017 Jul;14(1):431-438. doi: 10.3892/etm.2017.4505. Epub 2017 May 23.

In recent years accumulating evidence has indicated that tocotrienol exhibits an oxidation resistance function, decreased cholesterol function, inhibits cancer function and has unique physiological functions, including anti-inflammatory, anti-apoptotic and anti-oxidative properties. The present study investigated the effect of tocotrienols...

Glomus tumor in the stomach: A case report and review of the literature.

Oncology letters

Chen KB, Chen L.
PMID: 24932234
Oncol Lett. 2014 Jun;7(6):1790-1792. doi: 10.3892/ol.2014.1986. Epub 2014 Mar 21.

This study reports a rare case of a 47-year-old female with a gastric glomus tumor who was admitted with epigastralgia. Endoscopic ultrasound revealed a protrusion on the posterior wall of the gastric antrum. Enhanced computed tomography confirmed the presence...

Immunofluorescent localization of collagen types I, III, IV, fibronectin and laminin during morphogenesis of scales and scaleless skin in the chick embryo.

Wilhelm Roux's archives of developmental biology

PMID: 28305506
Wilehm Roux Arch Dev Biol. 1983 Sep;192(5):205-215. doi: 10.1007/BF00848651.

Collagen types I and III were purified from the skin of 3-or 7-week-old chickens, collagen type IV from bovine skin or EHS mouse tumour, fibronectin from human serum, and laminin from EHS mouse tumour. Antibodies were produced in rabbits...

Correlation analysis between four serum biomarkers of liver fibrosis and liver function in infants with cholestasis.

Biomedical reports

The aim of the present study was to investigate the correlation between four serum biomarkers of liver fibrosis and liver function in infants with cholestasis. A total of 30 infants with cholestasis and 20 healthy infants were included in...

Neuropathological alterations in drug abusers : The involvement of neurons, glial, and vascular systems.

Forensic science, medicine, and pathology

Büttner A, Weis S.
PMID: 25868590
Forensic Sci Med Pathol. 2006 Jun;2(2):115-26. doi: 10.1385/FSMP:2:2:115.

Because the effects of drug abuse on the cellular elements of the human brain have not been studied systematically, an investigation was performed using histology, immunohistochemistry, and morphometry. The main cortical and subcortical brain areas of 50 polydrug deaths...

Differential tyrosine phosphorylation of paxillin in human corneal epithelial cells on extracellular matrix proteins.

Japanese journal of ophthalmology

Ofuji K.
PMID: 10715396
Jpn J Ophthalmol. 2000 Mar;44(2):189. doi: 10.1016/s0021-5155(99)00205-1.

Purpose: To understand the interaction of corneal epithelial cells with laminin, fibronectin, and collagen type IV, major components of basement membrane, we investigated whether tyrosine phosphorylation of paxillin was increased during attachment of these cells to matrix proteins. Paxillin...
