ABSTRACT Atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome is a thrombotic microangiopathy caused by the abnormal activation of the alternative complement pathway. Mutations in complement‐related genes and autoantibodies against complement regulators are involved in the pathogenesis of this condition; the frequency of, and prognosis of patients harbouring, each ...

Abstract The recent report of the first pig kidney transplant in a living human brings hope to thousands of people with end‐stage kidney failure. The scientific community views this early success with caution as kidney xenotransplantation exhibits many challenges and barriers. One of these is coagulation dysregulation.

Global protein function prediction in protein-protein interaction networks [PDF]
The determination of protein functions is one of the most challenging problems of the post-genomic era. The sequencing of entire genomes and the possibility to access gene's co-expression patterns has moved the attention from the study of single proteins or small complexes to that of the entire proteome. In this context, the search for reliable methods

A Single Synonymous Variant (c.354G>A [p.P118P]) in ADAMTS13 Confers Enhanced Specific Activity
Synonymous variants within coding regions may influence protein expression and function. We have previously reported increased protein expression levels ex vivo (~120% in comparison to wild-type) from a synonymous polymorphism variant, c.354G>A [p.P118P],

ADAMTS13: A New Link Between Thrombosis and Inflammation [PDF]
von Willebrand factor (VWF) levels are elevated and a disintegrin-like and metalloprotease with thrombospondin type I repeats–13 (ADAMTS13) activity is decreased in both acute and chronic inflammation.

Multi-lectin Affinity Chromatography and Quantitative Proteomic Analysis Reveal Differential Glycoform Levels between Prostate Cancer and Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia Sera. [PDF]
Currently prostate-specific antigen is used for prostate cancer (PCa) screening, however it lacks the necessary specificity for differentiating PCa from other diseases of the prostate such as benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), presenting a clinical need
