Many proteins have concealed regions in their amino acid sequences that when liberated or
exposed by conformational changes can exhibit bioactivity. Two such cryptic bioactive …

Wound healing involves a well-controlled series of interactions among cells and several
mediators leading to the restoration of damaged tissue. Degradation of the extracellular …

Several proteins are known to host specific regions within their sequence, that when
exposed or excised out proteolytically can display a range of physiological activities quite …

Collagen, a major structural protein of the ECM, is known for its high cell adherence
capacity. This study was conducted to identify regions in collagen that harbour such …

The surface modification of biomaterials with matrikines for tissue engineering application is
one of the recent approaches to improve their biocompatibility. In an earlier study, a peptide …

Different matrix macromolecules modulate the tendon healing process. Elastin contains
sequences which exhibit chemotactic activity both in vitro and in vivo. We analyzed the …

Wound healing is very important after surgery and undisturbed closure of wounds is
sometimes a major problem. Intensive efforts are made to improve wound healing using …

Influence of a new protein-peptide complex on promoting skin wound healing in male
BALB/c mice was studied. Protein-peptide complex, extracted from Sus scrofa immune …

Collagen, a predominant structural protein in extracellular matrix (ECM), is now considered
to have probable roles in many biological activities and hence, in different forms have found …

BACKGROUND: A wound is a clinical entity which often poses problems in clinical practice.
The present study was aimed to investigate the wound healing potential of administering …
