CAMP induces adhesion of microvascular smooth muscle cells to fibronectin via an epac-mediated but PKA-independent mechanism
( Cell Physiol Biochem Press , 2012 , Article)Background/Aims: Vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) play important roles, both in physiologic and pathophysiologic processes. Adhesion of these cells is critical for their proper functioning, especially in resistance-sized ... -
Electrospun polylactic acid/date palm polyphenol extract nanofibres for tissue engineering applications
( Springer , 2019 , Article)In this study, a set of polylactic acid (PLA)/polyphenol extracted from date palm fruit (DP) blends were prepared by electrospinning process to be used as cell culture scaffolds for tissue engineering applications. For ... -
Photoimmobilization of zwitterionic polymers on surfaces to reduce cell adhesion
( Academic Press Inc. , 2017 , Article)Simple and robust methods for modifying hydrophobic polymer surfaces with zwitterionic polymers using UV irradiation were developed. Two random zwitterionic copolymers consisting of either carboxybetaine or sulfobetaine ... -
Water-pipe smoking promotes epithelial-mesenchymal transition and invasion of human breast cancer cells via ERK1/ERK2 pathways.
( BioMed Central Ltd. , 2018 , Article)With the increasing popularity of water-pipe smoking (WPS), it is critical to comprehend how WPS may affect women's health. The main goal of this study is to identify the potential outcome of WPS on human breast cancer ... -
Yttrium oxide nanoparticle loaded scaffolds with enhanced cell adhesion and vascularization for tissue engineering applications
( Elsevier Ltd , 2019 , Article)In situ tissue engineering is emerging as a novel approach in tissue engineering to repair damaged tissues by boosting the natural ability of the body to heal itself. This can be achieved by providing suitable signals and ...
