TGF-β and MMPs: A complex regulatory loop involved in tumor progression
(Matrix Metalloproteinases: Biology, Functions & Clinical Implications, 2012)
Transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) has a dual and contradictory role in cancer. It is a tumor suppressor at early stages of tumor formation by virtue of its growth inhibitory and pro-apoptotic functions. However, at later ...
Optimization of gradual hemolysis for isolation of hemoglobin from bovine erythrocytes / Optimizacija procesa izolovanja hemoglobina iz goveđih eritrocita kontrolisanom hemolizom
(Savez hemijskih inženjera, Beograd, 2012)
In this work, we describe an optimized procedure based on gradual hemolysis for the isolation of hemoglobin derived from bovine slaughterhouse erythrocytes in a membrane bioreactor. The membrane bioreactor system provided ...
