Matricellular proteins are involved in the crosstalk between cells and their environment and
thus play an important role in allergic and inflammatory reactions. Periostin, a matricellular …

Eosinophils are often considered as the pathologic landmark of chronic rhinosinusitis with
nasal polyps (CRSwNP). Many studies emphasize their pivotal role in mucosal remodeling …

Dental follicle stem cells (DFSCs) have been verified to promote periodontal regeneration in
an inflammatory microenvironment. When coping with inflammatory stimulation, DFSCs …

Allergic rhinitis, chronic rhinosinusitis, and asthma are highly prevalent, multifactorial chronic
airway diseases. Several environmental and genetic factors affect airway epithelial …

Periostin (POSTN) is a matricellular protein that was originally identified in osteoblasts. Past
studies have shown that POSTN is also preferentially expressed in cancer-associated …

Myocardial fibrosis after myocardial infarction (MI) leads to heart failure, which has become
an important global public health issue. One of the most important features of myocardial …

Objective This study aimed to explore the effect of periostin in the osteogenic abilities of
dental follicle stem cells (DFSCs) and DFSC sheets in the inflammatory microenvironment …

Purpose The current studies in the literature report that periostin contributes to the formation
of nasal polyps and may be a molecular biomarker for chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal …

Our study aimed to investigate key molecular targets in the pathogenesis of AMI, and
provide new strategy for the treatment. In this work, the myocardial ischemia and hypoxia …

Introduction: Chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) is an inflammatory airway
disease characterized as tight junction loosening, inflammation, and mucosal remodeling …
