The Short and Long Forms of Type XVIII Collagen Show Clear Tissue Specificities in Their Expression and Location in Basement Membrane Zones in Humans
TL;DR: Antibodies were produced against the NC1 region common to both human alpha1(XVIII) chain variants and against NC1 sequences specific to the long variant and were used in combination with in situ hybridization to localize this collagen in a number of human tissues.
Journal ArticleDOI

Eero Varila,Immo Rantala,Aarne Oikarinen,Juha Risteli,Timo Reunala,Hanna Oksanen,Reijo Punnonen +6 more
TL;DR: The objective to examine the effect of topical oestradiol on skin collagen and elastin and to propose a new drug to treat eczema.
Journal ArticleDOI
Accumulation of matrilysin (MMP-7) and macrophage metalloelastase (MMP-12) in actinic damage.
Ulpu Saarialho-Kere,Erja Kerkelä,Leila Jeskanen,Taina Hasan,Richard A. Pierce,Barry Starcher,Riikka Raudasoja,Annamari Ranki,Aarne Oikarinen,Maarit Vaalamo +9 more
