AbstractWe have investigated the expression and role of galectin‐1 and other galectins in psoriasis and in the Th1/Th17 effector and dendritic cell responses associated with this chronic inflammatory skin condition. To determine differences between psoriasis patients and healthy donors, expression of galectins was analysed by RT‐PCR in skin samples and on epidermal and peripheral blood dendritic cells by immunofluorescence and flow cytometry. In the skin of healthy donors, galectin‐1, ‐3 and ‐9 were expressed in a high proportion of Langerhans cells.
The aqueous extracts of Citrus unshiu peel containing flavonoid glycosides was used as co‐substrate with Schizophyllum commune mycelia producing β‐glucosidase and its biological activities were studied. β‐glucosidase‐produced S. commune mycelia converted the glycosides (narirutin and hesperidin) into aglycones (naringenin and hesperetin).
Authors: Barradas AM, Fernandes HA, Groen N, Chai YC, Schrooten J, van de Peppel J, van Leeuwen JP, van Blitterswijk CA, de Boer J Abstract The response of osteoprogenitors to calcium (Ca(2+)) is of primary interest for both normal bone homeostasis and the clinical field of bone regeneration. The latter makes use of calcium phosphate-based bone void fillers to heal bone defects, but it is currently not known how Ca(2+) released from these ceramic materials influences cells in situ

Authors: Ostuni A, Infantino V, Salvia A, Miglionico R, Boraldi F, Annovi G, Bisaccia F Abstract Progressive calcification and fragmentation of elastic fibers are characteristic hallmarks of Pseudoxanthoma elasticum (PXE) which is caused by mutations in the ABCC6 gene encoding the multidrug resistance-associated protein 6 (MRP6).

Periostin, a matricellular protein, accelerates cutaneous wound repair by activating dermal fibroblasts
23, Jan 2012In this study, we examined the role of periostin in the process of cutaneous wound repair using periostin‐deficient mice and by analyzing the effects of periostin on dermal fibroblasts.
