Human Coagulated Plasma as a Natural and Low Cost Matrix for in vitro Angiogenesis
Background: Angiogenesis, the development of new blood vessels, is an important process in tissue development and wound healing, but becomes pathologic when associated with solid tumor growth, proliferative retinopathies, and rheumatoid arthritis. Accurate and reliable qualification of neovascular (angiogenic) response, both in vitro and in vivo, is an essential requirement for the study of new...
متن کاملFibronectin fragments in human seminal plasma.
The study has revealed the presence of fibronectin (FN) fragments and a lack of intact FN in 72 seminal plasma samples. The FN fragmentation was examined by immunoblotting with a monoclonal antibody specific to the central cellular FN domain and was confirmed with a monoclonal antibody directed to the C-terminal domain of FN. Nine FN fragments between 60 and 200 kDa and five fragments of 60-150...
متن کاملHuman plasma gelsolin binds to fibronectin.
Human plasma gelsolin, a 93,000-dalton actin-binding protein binds to human plasma fibronectin. Qualitative data obtained from experiments employing quasi-elastic light scattering, sucrose gradient sedimentation, gel filtration chromatography, and fibronectin polymerization indicate that gelsolin and fibronectin form a complex in solution. Solid-phase binding studies show that both human plasma...
متن کاملImmunochemical characterization of human plasma fibronectin.
Human plasma fibronectin has been purified by a non-denaturing affinity chromatography procedure [Vuento & Vaheri, (1979) Biochem.J. 183, 331--337], and antisera have been raised by immunizing rabbits with the native protein. The antisera reacted strongly with native fibronectin, but only weakly with reduced and alkylated fibronectin or with heat-denaturated fibronectin. Denaturation also affec...
متن کاملStatistical conformation of human plasma fibronectin.
Fibronectin is a multifunctional glycoprotein (molecular mass, M = 530 kg/mol) of the extra cellular matrix (ECM) having a major role in cell adhesion. In physiological conditions, the conformation of this protein still remains debated and controversial. Here, we present a set of results obtained by scattering experiments. In "native" conditions, the radius of gyration (R(g) = 15.3 +/- 0.3 nm) ...
