    Description

    Previous studies showed the potential of calreticulin (CRT) protein in enhancing the rate and quality of wound healing in excisional animal wound models. This study determined if polycaprolactone (PCL)/type 1 collagen (Col1) nanofibers (NFs) could be used as an effective carrier for CRT while at the same time introducing further wound healing capability through the synergy of biological and physicochemical...

    Description

    Previous studies demonstrated that topically applied calreticulin (CALR) healed full‐thickness excisional animal wounds by a tissue regenerative process markedly enhancing repair without evoking angiogenesis. This study applied CALR in a rabbit corneal injury model. They accelerated full wound closure by 3 days and delayed healing caused by corticosteroids by 6 days. In addition, healed wounds without...

    Description

    Prostate cancer cells depend on the androgen receptor (AR) for survival and proliferation. This study examined the antitumor effects of compound MPC309, a trivalent display of ethisterone conjugated to a peptoid oligomer backbone that binds to the AR with nanomolar affinity. First, a structure-activity relationship study was performed to improve multivalent peptoid conjugate potency. Then, the impact...
