Extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling is involved in normal physiological processes, such as embryonic development, reproduction, proliferation, cell motility and adhesion, wound healing, angiogenesis, as well as in disease processes, such as arthritis and metastasis. Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) ...

Extracellular matrix (ECM) is composed of several macromolecules bound together in a complex network. This structure allows cells to adhere, migrate and interact. Hyaluronic acid, a glycosaminoglycan, is a major component of ECM. Hyaluronic acid-binding proteins such as hyaluronic acid ...

The haemostatic system maintains blood in a fluid state under normal conditions and responds to vessel injury by the rapid formation of a clot consisting of platelets and Fibrin. The traditional view of the regulation of blood coagulation is that the initiation phase is triggered by an extrinsic ...
