Abstract:
... Differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) into cardiomyocytes is a complex phenomenon, and attempts to find an effective inducing agent are still ongoing. We studied the effect of fibrin scaffold and sodium valproate (VPA, as a histone deacetylase inhibitor) on the differentiation of human adipose-derived stem cells (hADSCs) into cardiomyocyte-like cells. The cells were cultured in culture ...

Abstract:
... Staphylococcus aureus expresses many Microbial Surface Recognizing Adhesive Matrix Molecules (MSCRAMM's) to recognize host extracellular matrix (ECM) molecules to initiate colonization. The MSCRAMM, fibronectin binding protein A (FnBPA), is an important adhesin for S. aureus infection. FnBPA also binds with fibrinogen (Fg) by using a unique ligand binding mechanism called dock, lock and latch. Nan ...

Abstract:
... Oxidative post-translational modifications of fibrinogen (a multifunctional blood plasma protein essential for hemostasis) are associated with the pathogenesis of cardiovascular disorders (CVDs). Prunus spinosa flower is a herbal medicine used in an adjuvant treatment of CVDs and rich in polyphenolic antioxidants. In the present study, phytochemically standardized P. spinosa flower extracts, their ...
