Biomineralization of Fucoidan-Peptide Blends and Their Potential Applications in Bone Tissue Regeneration
Fucoidan (Fuc), a natural polysaccharide derived from brown seaweed algae, and gelatin (Gel) were conjugated to form a template for preparation of biomimetic scaffolds for potential applications in bone tissue regeneration. To the Fuc-Gel we then incorporated the peptide sequence MTNYDEAAMAIASLN (MTN) derived from the E-F hand domain, known for its calcium binding properties. To mimic the compo...
متن کاملPeripheral nerve regeneration and neurotrophic factors.
The role of neurotrophic factors in the maintenance and survival of peripheral neuronal cells has been the subject of numerous studies. Administration of exogenous neurotrophic factors after nerve injury has been shown to mimic the effect of target organ-derived trophic factors on neuronal cells. After axotomy and during peripheral nerve regeneration, the neurotrophins NGF, NT-3 and BDNF show a...
متن کاملNeurotrophic factors and corneal nerve regeneration
The cornea has unique features that make it a useful model for regenerative medicine studies. It is an avascular, transparent, densely innervated tissue and any pathological changes can be easily detected by slit lamp examination. Corneal sensitivity is provided by the ophthalmic branch of the trigeminal nerve that elicits protective reflexes such as blinking and tearing and exerts trophic supp...
متن کاملNeurotrophic factors and their receptors.
Several new members of the nerve growth factor family of neurotrophins, which comprises nerve growth factor itself, brain-derived neurotrophic factor and neurotrophins-3, -4 (also known as neurotrophin-5) and -6, have been isolated in recent years. Their signaling receptors have been identified as the Trk family of tyrosine protein kinases, thus facilitating the dissection of the signaling path...
