Mechanisms of Disease: the role of immune cells in the pathogenesis of systemic sclerosis
(2006)Systemic sclerosis is characterized by extensive fibrosis, microvascular stenosis and autoantibody production. All three characteristics can be accounted for by activation of cells of the immune system. Activation of T ... -
New developments in the pathogenesis of systemic sclerosis
(2005)Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is characterized by extensive fibrosis, vasculopathy and activation of the immune system. Fibrosis can be caused by profibrotic cytokines, such as transforming growth factor-beta (TGF beta), ... -
Predictive role of cytokine gene polymorphisms for the development of femoral head osteonecrosis
(2012)Introduction: Osteonecrosis (ON) is a multifactorial disease that leads to hip destruction. Lately, much focus has been at femoral head preservation with nonsurgical methods. In this study we examined the polymorphisms of ... -
Protein and mRNA expression levels of VEGF-A and TGF-B1 in different types of human coronary atherosclerotic lesions
(2005)It is well documented that inflammation plays a major role in the establishment and progression of atherosclerosis. Endothelial cells, vascular smooth muscle cells and m onocytes/macrophages are involved in this process ... -
ROS-major mediators of extracellular matrix remodeling during tumor progression
(2013)Extracellular matrices (ECMs) represent a complex network of proteins, proteoglycans and glycosaminoglycans (GAGs), composed of independent structural domains, ultimately constituting the cell microenvironment. As a highly ...
