DOI: 10.1128/mbio.01067-17
Abstract: ABSTRACT Invasive bacterial pathogens can capture host plasminogen (Plg) and allow it to form plasmin. This process is of medical importance as surface-bound plasmin promotes bacterial spread by cleaving tissue components and favors immune evasion… read more here.

DOI: 10.3938/jkps.75.508
Abstract: In nature, fibronectin (FN) is known to form extended fiber networks when binding to specific receptors on cellular membranes as a major component of extracellular matrix (ECM) under an anionic environment of proteoglycans (PGs). Seeking… read more here.
