Does triglycidyl amine crosslinking combined with ethanol inhibit bioprosthetic heart valve calcification?
The TGA-EtOH pretreatment of porcine aortic valves confers significant calcification resistance in both rat subdermal and sheep circulatory implants, but with associated structural instability.
The results revealed that a tandem repeat domain of MUC1 mucin core protein binds to domain 1 of ICAM-1, suggesting a potential role of MUC1- ICAM-1 interaction in the metastasis of epithelial tumors.
