Characterisation of novel matrix-binding interactions for latent transforming growth factor-β-binding protein-2 (LTBP-2), with emphasis on heparin and heparan sulphate proteoglycans.
… transforming growth factor-β binding protein (LTBP)-1, -2, -3, -4, associated components of fibrillin-microfibrils, make up a superfamily of extracellular matrix proteins. Fibrillins and LTBPs share a high degree of structural similarity since they both have rod-like structures of tandem …

Keratose Hydrogels Promote Vascular Smooth Muscle Differentiation from c-kit+ Human Cardiac Stem Cells: Underlying Mechanism and Therapeutic Potential
… revealed that latency TGFβ binding protein (LTBP-1) and latency associated peptide (LAP) had elevated levels early during differentiation. Further, the levels of LTBP-1 and LAP were higher on KOS differentiated hCSCs than TCPS hCSCs. This study reaffirms previous results of a VSM phenotype …

Corrosion Testing and Modeling of Chloride-Induced Corrosion Deterioration of Concrete Bridge Decks
Modeling of chloride-induced deterioration of bridge decks by using Fick's Second Law of diffusion was performed. The objective of this study is to select suitable input parameters for the model to estimate the service life of bridge decks. Five bridge decks, one in each of the following states, …
