Fibrin Zymography
Fibrin zymography is a gel-based electrophoretic technique used to detect and analyze fibrinolytic enzymes—those that can degrade fibrin, the main…
Fibrinolytic Activity
Fibrinolytic activity refers to the body’s natural ability to break down fibrin, the protein mesh that stabilizes blood clots. This…
Casein Zymography
Casein zymography is a technique used to detect casein-degrading enzymes in biological samples. Procedure Preparation: A polyacrylamide gel is co-polymerized…
Caseinolytic activity
Caseinolytic activity refers to the ability of proteases to degrade casein, a milk-derived phosphoprotein. This property is commonly used to…
Zymography
Zymography is a sensitive, semi-quantitative electrophoretic technique used to detect and analyze the enzymatic activity of proteases, especially matrix metalloproteinases…
Tight Junctions in Epithelial-to-Mesenchymal Transition (EMT)
Tight junctions are specialized cell-cell adhesion structures that play a fundamental role in maintaining the polarity and integrity of epithelial…

Effect of CagA on β-Catenin Signaling in AGS Cells
Although AGS cells do not express functional E-cadherin, Helicobacter pylori can still modulate β-catenin signaling in these cells through E-cadherin–independent…
E-cadherin Expression in AGS Cell Line
AGS cells, a widely used human gastric adenocarcinoma cell line, do not express functional E-cadherin due to epigenetic silencing of…
β-Catenin Expression in AGS Cell Line
In normal epithelial cells, β-catenin is sequestered at the adherens junctions via interaction with E-cadherin, helping maintain junctional integrity and…
