Cell-mediated (type-1) immunity is necessary for immune protection against most intracellular pathogens and, when excessive, can mediate organ-specific autoimmune destruction. Mice deficient in Eta-1… (More)
The CD44 family of surface receptors regulates adhesion, movement, and activation of normal and neoplastic cells. The cytokine osteopontin (Eta-1), which regulates similar cellular functions, was… (More)

The origin and differentiation of cells in the repair of three-millimeter-diameter, cylindrical, full-thickness drilled defects of articular cartilage were studied histologically in New Zealand White… (More)
Genetic mutations that disrupt osteoblast function can result in skeletal dysmorphogenesis or, more rarely, in increased postnatal bone formation. Here we show that Schnurri-3 (Shn3), a mammalian… (More)
The environment of carbonate ions in bones of different species (rat, rabbit, chicken, cow, human) was investigated by Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) associated with a… (More)
Resolution-enhanced Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectra of early mineral deposits in enamel and bone show bands at 1020, 1100, 1110, 1125, and 1145 cm−1 in thev 3PO4 domain which do not belong… (More)
We have developed low temperature nonaqueous solution methods as well as low power plasma ashing for the degradation of the organic matrix of bone power which have permitted us to obtain bone… (More)
ACTIVATING transcription factor-2 (ATF-2) is a basic region leucine zipper protein whose DNA target sequence is the widely distributed cAMP response element (CRE). We report here that mice carrying a… (More)

The palmar fascial tissues of more than 400 patients with Dupuytren's disease were studied biochemically and compared with normal tissue obtained from more than 100 patients who were undergoing hand… (More)
