Adhesion Prevention to Polypropylene Meshes Using Combined Icodextrin Four Percent and Dimetindene Maleate
(2019)Background: The use of surgical meshes in ventral hernia repair has significantly reduced hernia recurrence rates. However, when placed intraperitoneally prosthetic materials can trigger the development of peritoneal ... -
Cell and extracellular matrix interaction models in benign mesothelial and malignant pleural mesothelioma cells in 2D and 3D in-vitro
(2021)Malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) is an aggressive tumour that grows in the pleural cavity. MPM spheroids released in the pleural fluid can form new tumour foci. Cell–cell, cell–extracellular matrix (ECM) interactions ... -
Collagen fibril diameter distribution affects permeability of ligament tissue: A computational study on healthy and injured tissues
(2020)Background and objective In a vascular or hypovascular tissues, elements required for maintaining tissue functions are recruited through diffusion, which is highly related with the permeability of the extracellular matrix ... -
Collagen from the marine sponges Axinella cannabina and Suberites carnosus: Isolation and morphological, biochemical, and biophysical characterization
(2017)In search of alternative and safer sources of collagen for biomedical applications, the marine demosponges Axinella cannabina and Suberites carnosus, collected from the Aegean and the Ionian Seas, respectively, were ... -
The contribution of a collagen patch coated with fibrin glue in sealing upper gastrointestinal defects: An experimental study
(2021)Background/Aim: We aimed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of sealing primary upper gastrointestinal (GI) perforations with a collagen patch coated with fibrin glue (Tachosil®). Materials and Methods: Thirty New Zealand ... -
A controlled trial of polyglytone 6211 versus poliglecaprone 25 for use in intradermal suturing in dogs
(2021)The objective of this work was the comparative evaluation of the healing process after em-ploying 4/0 poliglecaprone 25 and 4/0 polyglytone 6211 in a continuous intradermal suture pattern. Ten Beagle dogs were used, in ... -
A copper sulfate and hydroxylysine treatment regimen for enhancing collagen cross-linking and biomechanical properties in engineered neocartilage
(2013)The objective of this study was to improve the biomechanical properties of engineered neotissues through promoting the development of collagen cross-links. It was hypothesized that supplementing medium with copper sulfate ... -
Corneal Collagen Cross-Linking for Infectious Keratitis: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
(2016)Purpose: To assess the efficacy of corneal collagen cross-linking (CXL) in the management of infectious keratitis. Methods: Comprehensive literature search was performed in MEDLINE/PubMed and Cochrane Central Register of ... -
Histological and biochemical evidence related to the collagen quality in torn rotator cuff tendons
(2016)This study investigates the histological background of torn rotator cuff tendons, evaluates the stability of newly synthesized collagen by measuring the hydroxyproline content and attempts to correlate these fndings with ... -
Hypoxia-induced collagen crosslinking as a mechanism for enhancing mechanical properties of engineered articular cartilage
(2013)Objective: The focus of tissue engineering of neocartilage has traditionally been on enhancing extracellular matrix and thus biomechanical properties. Emphasis has been placed on the enhancement of collagen type and quantity, ... -
In vitro characterization of cisplatin and pemetrexed effects in malignant pleural mesothelioma 3d culture phenotypes
(2019)Malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) is an aggressive cancer with poor prognosis. The main treatment for MPM is doublet chemotherapy with Cisplatin and Pemetrexed, while ongoing trials test the efficacy of pemetrexed ... -
Induced Collagen Cross-Links Enhance Cartilage Integration
(2013)Articular cartilage does not integrate due primarily to a scarcity of cross-links and viable cells at the interface. The objective of this study was to test the hypothesis that lysyl-oxidase, a metalloenzyme that forms ... -
Lack of macroscopically evident cardiac regeneration or spontaneous functional recovery in infarcted neonatal pigs

A Narrative Review of Four Different New Techniques in Primary Anterior Cruciate Ligament Repair: “Back to the Future” or Another Trend?
(2018)Recently, four different operative techniques, referring to the primary anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) repair, were described. These are the dynamic intraligamentary stabilization (DIS) with Ligamys™, the Bridge-enhanced ... -
Physical activity may be a potent regulator of bone turnover biomarkers in healthy girls during preadolescence
(2017)This study investigated the effects of different levels of habitual physical activity (PA) assessed by pedometry on bone turnover markers of preadolescent girls according to a cross-sectional experimental design. Sixty ... -
The role of B cells in the pathogenesis of systemic sclerosis
(2016)Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is characterized by extensive collagen deposition, microvasculopathy and autoantibodies. All three features can be promoted by activation of T cells and B cells. T cells are of Th2 type producing ... -
Skeletal deformity of scoliosis in gilthead seabreams (Sparus aurata): Association with changes to calcium-phosphor hydroxyapatite salts and collagen fibers
(2019)The development of skeletal deformities in seabream farming affects fish growth, survival, and production costs. Collagen distribution in different fish tissues might be correlated with swimming behavior. This study ... -
A stromal Integrated Stress Response activates perivascular cancer-associated fibroblasts to drive angiogenesis and tumour progression
(2022)Bidirectional signalling between the tumour and stroma shapes tumour aggressiveness and metastasis. ATF4 is a major effector of the Integrated Stress Response, a homeostatic mechanism that couples cell growth and survival ... -
Systemic Biomarkers of Collagen and Elastin Turnover Are Associated With Clinically Relevant Outcomes in COPD
(2017)Background Extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling of the lung tissue releases protein fragments into the blood, where they may be detected as serologic surrogate markers of disease activity in COPD. Our goal was to assess ... -
