Journal Article

Comparison of a new type of polytetrafluoroethylene patch (Mycro Mesh) and polypropylene prosthesis (Marlex) for repair of abdominal wall defects.

TL;DR: The tissue integration of the PL and MM implants differed; fewer visceral adhesions formed on MM than on PL; the macrophage reaction was not determinant of the success of failure of either biomaterial; and the tensile strength of the prosthesis-receptor tissue interface was much greater in the PL implants than in the MM implants.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fibroblasts from the transversalis fascia of young patients with direct inguinal hernias show constitutive MMP-2 overexpression.

TL;DR: Results indicate that MMP-2 may be involved in the TF matrix degradative process in patients with direct hernia, suggesting a genetic defect or irreversible change as the origin of this pathology rather than environmental factors, which may later participate in the development of the hernial process.
Journal ArticleDOI

Age-related changes in the elastic tissue of the human aorta.

TL;DR: The findings indicate that ageing is accompanied by a destruction of the elastic vascular structure in human aortic blood vessels, and tropoelastin expression analysis suggests that elastogenesis occurs throughout life with constantly decreasing levels.
Journal ArticleDOI

Signal Transduction Pathways in Breast Cancer: The Important Role of PI3K/Akt/mTOR.

TL;DR: The present review aims to understand the current state of this important disease and the paths that must be forged in patients with breast cancer.
