Fibrinogen fusion proteins, methods of making, and methods of using fibrinogen fusion proteins are described. In a preferred embodiment the fibrinogen fusion protein contains a truncated Aa chain of fibrinogen. The Aa chain contains truncation site, which ...
We have studied ischemic tolerance induced by the serine protease thrombin in two different models of experimental ischemia. In organotypic hippocampal slice cultures, we demonstrate that incubation with low doses of thrombin protects neurons against a sub ...
The molecular processes based on the specific receptor-ligand interactions (e.g. immune response to a foreign antigen, communication between nerve cells, etc.) are essential for a good and stable performance of living organisms. The aim of the present work ...
Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is a key factor in endothelial cell biol. and blood vessel formation and a candidate therapeutic for the stimulation of angiogenesis-dependent tissue regeneration. The objective of this study was to confer the angi ...
Three-dimensional neurite outgrowth rates within fibrin matrices that contained variable amounts of RGD peptides were shown to depend on adhesion site density and affinity. Bi-domain peptides with a factor XIIIa substrate in one domain and a RGD sequence i ...
Fibrin plays an important role in wound healing and regeneration, and enjoys widespread use in surgery and tissue engineering. The enzymatic activity of Factor XIIIa was employed to covalently incorporate exogenous bioactive peptides within fibrin during c ...
Plaque-prone areas are exposed to a particular hemodynamic environment characterized by a low mean shear stress value and a cyclic reversal flow. This mechanical environment, also termed oscillatory shear stress (OSS), induces the expression of several pro ...
The goal of this work was to develop a growth factor delivery system for use in wound healing that would provide localized release of heparin-binding growth factors in a biomimetic manner, such that release occurs primarily in response to cell-assocd. enzy ...
A novel method for the delivery of growth factor proteins from fibrin matrixes was developed. Nerve growth factor (NGF) fusion proteins contg. an exogenous transglutaminase substrate at the N-terminus of the protein were made recombinantly by E. coli. The ...
The goal of this work was to improve the potential of fibrin to promote nerve regeneration by enzymatically incorporating exogenous neurite-promoting heparin-binding peptides. The effects on neurite extension of four different heparin-binding peptides, der ...
