The effect of single nucleotide polymorphisms and mutations on congenital thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura phenotype [PDF]
Thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP) is a rare, life-threatening disease with a reported incidence of 6 cases per million per year in the UK. It is characterised by episodes of microangiopathic haemolytic anaemia and thrombocytopenia, with the ...

Physical Fitness Is Negatively Associated With DNA Methylation‐Based Risk of Aging‐Related Diseases
We found 33 significant associations between DNA methylation–based protein level estimates (EpiScores) and fitness traits in older adults. Then we found 51 associations between fitness traits and chronic age‐related diseases, enabling a workflow for evaluating patient‐level disease risk by using DNA methylation and fitness measurements.

PROTEOLYTIC PROCESSING OF VON WILLEBRAND FACTOR BY ADAMTS13 AND LEUKOCYTE PROTEASES
ADAMTS13 is a 190 kDa zinc protease encoded by a gene located on chromosome 9q34. This protease specifically hydrolyzes von Willebrand factor (VWF) multimers, thus causing VWF size reduction.

ABSTRACT Osteosarcoma (OS) is an aggressive primary bone tumour with high metastatic potential. Current treatments including surgery and chemotherapy are limited by side effects and chemoresistance, underscoring the need for novel therapies. This study aimed to investigate the antitumor potential of resveratrol (RSV), a natural polyphenol, as a novel ...

Detection of Plasma Protease Activity Using Microsphere-Cytometry Assays with E. coli Derived Substrates: VWF Proteolysis by ADAMTS13. [PDF]
Protease levels in human blood are often prognostic indicators of inflammatory, thrombotic or oncogenic disorders. The measurement of such enzyme activities in substrate-based assays is complicated due to the low prevalence of these enzymes and steric ...

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

Optimization of plasma-based BioID identifies plasminogen as a ligand of ADAMTS13
ADAMTS13, a disintegrin and metalloprotease with a thrombospondin type 1 motif, member 13, regulates the length of Von Willebrand factor (VWF) multimers and their platelet-binding activity. ADAMTS13 is constitutively secreted as an active protease and is

ADAMTS13 gene deletion enhances plasma high-mobility group box1 elevation and neuroinflammation in brain ischemia-reperfusion injury [PDF]
Highly adhesive glycoprotein von Willebrand factor (VWF) multimer induces platelet aggregation and leukocyte tethering or extravasation on the injured vascular wall, contributing to microvascular plugging and inflammation in brain ischemia-reperfusion. A
