Formation and function of the myofibroblast during tissue repair.
It is generally accepted that fibroblast-to-myofibroblast differentiation represents a key event during wound healing and tissue repair. The high contractile force generated by myofibroblasts is beneficial for physiological tissue remodeling but detrimental for tissue function when it becomes excessive such as in hypertrophic scars, in virtually all fibrotic diseases and during stroma reaction ...
متن کاملMolecular regulation of myofibroblast formation
Novel strategies are required to counteract tissue contractures characteristic for organ fibrosis, stroma reaction to tumors, host reaction to implants, and formation of hypertrophic scars as after burns. Key element for the development and progression of these pathologies is the excessive contractile force generated by a-smooth muscle actin (a-SMA)-expressing myofibroblasts. We can modulate my...

متن کاملPattern formation during T-cell adhesion.
T cells form intriguing patterns during adhesion to antigen-presenting cells. The patterns are composed of two types of domains, which either contain short TCR/MHCp receptor-ligand complexes or the longer LFA-1/ICAM-1 complexes. The final pattern consists of a central TCR/MHCp domain surrounded by a ring-shaped LFA-1/ICAM-1 domain, whereas the characteristic pattern formed at intermediate times...
متن کاملSignals Regulating Adhesion Dynamics
Adhesions are sites of contact between cells (cell-cell) and between cells and the extracellular matrix (cell-ECM) that are essential for numerous biological processes such as embryogenesis, wound healing, and the immune response. They are composed of many different molecules including adhesion receptors, signaling proteins (e.g., kinases, phos-phatases, and adaptor proteins), and structural pr...
