𦴠Joint Disorders and the Ionic Collapse
Joint pain and degeneration are often framed as mechanical or autoimmune problems. But mounting evidence suggests that chronic joint disorders are also failures of immune coordination, vascular repair, and connective tissue signalingâall of which are governed by the PF4âCXCR4âCXCL12 axis and d
ADAMTS2
Introduction to ADAMTS2 ADAMTS2 is an enzyme primarily concentrated in skin and connective tissues. It plays a crucial role in processing procollagen, which is essential for collagen formation and maintenance. Collagen is a structural protein that contributes to the integrity and repair of tissues.
Theca folliculi
The theca folliculi comprise a layer of the ovarian follicles. They appear as the follicles become secondary follicles. The theca are divided into two layers, the theca interna and the theca externa.[1] Theca cells are a group of endocrine cells in the ovary made u
Elastase
In molecular biology, elastase is an enzyme from the class of proteases (peptidases) that break down proteins. In particular, it is a serine protease. Forms and classification Eight human genes exist for elastase: Family Gene symbol Protein name EC number Approved Previous Appro
Ectodomain Shedding & Sheddases & a whole bunch of Adams
An ectodomain is the domain of a membrane protein that extends into the extracellular space (the space outside a cell). Ectodomains are usually the parts of proteins that initiate contact with surfaces, which leads to signal transduction. A nota
Pterion and Pteron Notes
The pterion is the region where the frontal, parietal, temporal, and sphenoid bones join. It is located on the side of the skull, just behind the temple. Structure The pterion is located in the temporal fossa, approximately 2.6 cm behind an
Desmosine
Desmosine is an amino acid found uniquely in elastin, a protein found in connective tissue such as skin, lungs, and elastic arteries. Desmosine is a component of elastin and cross links with its isomer, isodesmosine, giving elasticity to the tissue. Detection of desmosine in ur
