## Abstract The degradation of elastin, the insoluble biopolymer of tropoelastin, can lead to the production of small peptides. These elastin‐derived peptides (EDPs) are playing a key role in cellular behavior within the extracellular matrix, showing a great variety of biological effects such as ch

## Abstract Elastic fibers are an important component of the extracellular matrix, providing elasticity and resilience to tissues that require the ability to deform repetitively and reversibly. Among the elastin‐derived peptides, the Val–Gly–Val–Ala–Pro–Gly (VGVAPG) hexapeptide is known for its che

## ABSTRACT Elastin‐derived peptides were previously shown to influence human skin fibroblasts (HSF) chemotaxis and proliferation (Ghuysen et al., 1992). We report here that culturing HSF on κ‐elastin (κE) but not onto fibronectin (FN) enhanced the secretion of latent elastinolytic activity. The pr

A sensitive, reproducible, and rapid radioimmunoassay was developed to determine elastin peptide content of human serum in nanogram amounts. Significant differences have been determined between normal volunteers, both smokers and nonsmokers, and patients wth chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Th

We report the extraction of delta virus RNA from the serum of a delta-virus-infected patient and the subsequent cloning and analysis of a 380-nucleotide-long cDNA (D380). The nucleotide sequence of D380 shows overall differences of approximately 20% when compared with previously published sequences
