Endothelial cells are at the interface between circulating blood and tissues. This position
confers on them a crucial role in controlling oxygen and nutrient exchange and cellular …

Glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) are an important component of the extracellular matrix as they
influence cell behavior and have been sought for tissue regeneration, biomaterials, and …

Heparan Sulfate Proteoglycans (HSPGs) are important cell surface and Extracellular Matrix
(ECM) maestros involved in the orchestration of multiple cellular events in physiology and …

Oxidative stress represents one of the principal causes of inherited retinal dystrophies, with
many related molecular mechanisms still unknown. We investigated the posttranscriptional …

The pandemic of the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has
caused a high number of deaths in the world. To combat it, it is necessary to develop a better …

Wound healing is a complex phenomenon that involves different cell types with various
functions, ie, keratinocytes, fibroblasts, and endothelial cells, all influenced by the action of …

Glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) are long, linear polysaccharides that are ubiquitously
expressed on the cell surface and in the extracellular matrix of all animal cells. These …

CAR (CARSKNKDC) is a wound-homing peptide that recognises angiogenic neovessels.
Here we discover that systemically administered CAR peptide has inherent ability to …

The syndecans are the major family of transmembrane proteoglycans, usually bearing
