Predicting progression of aortic stenosis by measuring serum calcification propensity
Abstract Background The aim of this prospective, double‐blinded study in patients with aortic sclerosis was to determine whether a new calcification propensity measure in the serum could predict disease progression. Methods We included 129 consecutive patients with aortic sclerosis as assessed during a routine clinical echocardiographic exam. Clinical,

Appropriate nomenclature: angiotensin II receptors
Radford published an interesting clinical case report of rural patients taking angiotensin II type 1 (AT1) receptor antagonist – commonly also referred to as angiotensin receptor antagonists, AT1 receptor blockers, angiotensin receptor blockers or ARBs – who experienced a sudden loss of consciousness whilst exercising gently in the heat.

Segregation of receptor-ligand complexes in cell adhesion zones: Phase diagrams and role of thermal membrane roughness [PDF]
The adhesion zone of immune cells, the 'immunological synapse', exhibits characteristic domains of receptor-ligand complexes. The domain formation is likely caused by a length difference of the receptor-ligand complexes, and has been investigated in experiments in which T cells adhere to supported membranes with anchored ligands.

Review of COVID-19 Antibody Therapies [PDF]
Under the global health emergency caused by coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), efficient and specific therapies are urgently needed. Compared with traditional small-molecular drugs, antibody therapies are relatively easy to develop and as specific as vaccines in targeting severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), and thus attract ...

Renal vascular response to angiotensin 1-7 in rats: the role of Mas receptor
Recently a cross talk between angiotensin 1-7 (Ang1-7) receptor (MasR) and angiotensin II receptors types 1 and 2 (AT1R and AT2R) has been highlighted. The effects of MasR antagonist (A779) compared to the vehicle on the renal blood flow (RBF) and renal ...
