topical nicotinamide improves tissue regeneration in excisional full-thickness skin wounds: a stereological and pathological study
background nicotinamide (na), the active form of vitamin-b3, is hypothesized to have positive effects on the process of wound healing; it has anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and immunomodulatory properties, as well as an epithelization inducing action. objectives in the present study, we aimed to determine the effects of topical administration of na on skin wounds, based on histomorphometrical ...

متن کاملExpression and role of the hyaluronan receptor RHAMM in inflammation after bleomycin injury.
Lung injury is associated with increased concentrations of hyaluronan (hyaluronic acid, HA). HA modifies cell behavior through interaction with cell-associated receptors such as receptor for HA-mediated motility (RHAMM, CD168). Using a function blocking anti-RHAMM antibody (R36), we investigated the expression and role of RHAMM in the inflammatory response to intratracheal bleomycin in rats. Im...
متن کاملInteractions between Hyaluronan and Its Receptors (CD44, RHAMM) Regulate the Activities of Inflammation and Cancer
The glycosaminoglycan hyaluronan (HA), a major component of extracellular matrices, and cell surface receptors of HA have been proposed to have pivotal roles in cell proliferation, migration, and invasion, which are necessary for inflammation and cancer progression. CD44 and receptor for HA-mediated motility (RHAMM) are the two main HA-receptors whose biological functions in human and murine in...
متن کاملImatinib mesylate blocks a non-Smad TGF-beta pathway and reduces renal fibrogenesis in vivo.
Transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) is the single most important cytokine promoting renal fibrogenesis. p21-activated kinase-2 (PAK2) and activation of abelson nonreceptor tyrosine kinase (c-abl) have been shown recently to be smad-independent, fibroblast-specific targets downstream of the activated TGF-beta receptor. In the current study we show that in cultured NRK49F-renal fibroblasts...
