Journal ArticleDOI
Genomic cloning of the mouse LDL receptor related protein/α2-macroglobulin receptor gene
A. van der Zee,L Stas,C. Hilleker,F. Van Leuven,K.W. van Dijk,L.M. Havekes,R.A. Frants,M.H. Hofker +7 more
TL;DR: The Lrp promoter region was sequenced and reveals strong evolutionary conservation of putative regulatory elements between mouse and human and will facilitate detailed elucidation of the function of LRP in vivo.
Journal ArticleDOI
Heterogeneity in the synthesis of alpha-macroglobulins in outbred Swiss albino mice acutely infected with Trypanosoma cruzi.
TL;DR: Alpha-Macroglobulins are protease inhibitors with important roles in inflammation and in immunomodulation that behave as acute-phase proteins in many experimental models and could play a role in the development of the symptoms of the chronic phase of Chagas' disease.
Journal Article
Qualitative and quantitative differences in spreading of human fibroblasts on various protein coats. Modulation by treatment of the cells with amines
TL;DR: The results clearly indicate that the spreading of human fibroblasts can be modulated by the nature of the substratum and that, by using quantitative methods, these differences in behaviour can be measured accurately.
Journal ArticleDOI
Synthesis and evaluation of two fluorine-18 labelled phenylbenzothiazoles as potential in vivo tracers for amyloid plaque imaging
Kim Serdons,Dominique Vanderghinste,M. Van Eeckhoudt,Peter Borghgraef,Hank F. Kung,F. Van Leuven,T. de Groot,Guy Bormans,Alfons Verbruggen +8 more
TL;DR: Data suggest that [18F]2 may be a useful tracer for in vivo visualization of fibrillar amyloid β in healthy mice.
Book ChapterDOI
Fibronectin-Mediated Cellular (Inter)Actions
TL;DR: Fibronectin containing matrices are particularly prominent in vivo at sites of tissue remodelling and cell migration (e.g., wound repair, neural crest cell migration) and in the basement membranes of most cultured cells.
