Growth Factors and Neuroglobin in Astrocyte Protection Against Neurodegeneration and Oxidative Stress
(Humana Press Inc., 2019)
Heparan sulfate-binding peptide promotes the deposition of proteoglycans in the extracellular matrix
(Wiley-Blackwell, 1997-06-15)
A synthetic peptide, which was shown to bind extracellular matrix heparan sulfate chains with a high degree of affinity and specificity [Colburn el al. (1996): Arch Biochem Biophys 325:129-138], has now been found to promote ...
Bioactive molecule-loaded drug delivery systems to optimize bone tissue repair
(2017-08-01)
Bioactive molecules such as peptides and proteins can optimize the repair of bone tissue; however, the results are often unpredictable when administered alone, owing to their short biological half-life and instability. ...
A cyclic peptide derived from alpha-fetoprotein inhibits the proliferative effects of the epidermal growth factor and estradiol in MCF7 cells
(PROFESSOR D A SPANDIDOS, 2008-06)
A cyclic peptide derived from the active domain of
α-fetoprotein (AFP) significantly inhibited the proliferation of
MCF7 cells stimulated with the epidermal growth factor (EGF)
or estradiol (E2). The action of these ...
Peptides Derived From the α-Core and γ-Core Regions of a Putative Silybum marianum Flower Defensin Show Antifungal Activity Against Fusarium graminearum
(Frontiers Media, 2021-02-17)
Fusarium graminearum is the etiological agent of Fusarium head blight (FHB), a disease that produces a significant decrease in wheat crop yield and it is further aggravated by the presence of mycotoxins in the affected ...
Modulation of gap junction channels and hemichannels by growth factors
(2012)
Gap junction hemichannels and cell–cell channels have roles in coordinating numerous cellular processes, due to their permeability to extra and intracellular signaling molecules. Another mechanism of cellular coordination ...
