Inhibition of human subconjunctival fibroblast proliferation by immunotoxin.
The ability to target proliferating cells is important for agents used to modulate wound healing by decreasing the growth of fibroblasts. Proliferating cells are known to express increased numbers of transferrin receptors and have increased receptor turnover. 454A12 Mab-rRA, an immunotoxin containing anti-human transferrin receptor monoclonal antibody conjugated to recombinant ricin A chain, wa...
متن کاملInhibition of cardiac fibroblast proliferation and myofibroblast differentiation by resveratrol.
Cardiac fibroblasts (CFs) regulate myocardial remodeling by proliferating, differentiating, and secreting extracellular matrix proteins. Prolonged activation of CFs leads to cardiac fibrosis and reduced myocardial contractile function. Resveratrol (RES) exhibits a number of cardioprotective properties; however, the possibility that this compound affects CF function has not been considered. The ...
متن کاملEFFECTS OF DIFFERENT MEDIATORS ON FIBROBLAST PROLIFERATION
In this study, we have investigated the proliferative response of human dermal fibroblasts isolated from normal and psoriatic individuals to different cytokines. We found that IL-1, TNF (α) and EGF are stimulatory whereas IFN « and 1 both showed inhibitory activity on fibroblast proliferation. IL-6 a more recently described cytokine, showed no detectable effects on cell proliferation. Inve...
متن کاملInhibition of human scleral fibroblast proliferation with heparin.
Proliferation of fibroblasts is a serious problem in ocular trauma and surgical wound healing. Depending on the location of the injury, the growth of fibroblasts can lead to different problems. In glaucoma filtering surgery, fibroblast proliferation may contribute to scar tissue formation and premature wound closure. Fibroblastic growth in proliferative vitreoretinopathy may lead to the formati...
متن کاملAugmentation of fibroblast proliferation by bleomycin.
Bleomycin-induced lung disease is characterized by fibroblast proliferation and pulmonary fibrosis. In these studies, we demonstrate that fibroblasts are relatively resistant to clinically relevant amounts (below 10(-4) U/ml) of bleomycin and that these levels of bleomycin augment fibroblast proliferation in response to various fibroblast growth factors. These observations suggest that one mech...
