Hemophilia A: An Ideal Disease for Prenatal Therapy

Prenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hemophilia A (HA) is the most common inherited coagulation defect. Current state‐of‐the‐art treatment consists of frequent administration of prophylactic infusions of coagulation factor VIII (FVIII) protein or bispecific antibodies that replace the cofactor function of FVIIIa to maintain hemostasis. However, these treatments are far from ideal,

Antithrombin in sepsis revisited [PDF]

Critical Care, 2005
As the pivotal phase III randomized controlled clinical trial on antithrombin concentrate in patients with severe sepsis did not show a beneficial effect of antithrombin treatment on 28-day mortality, the interest in the potential use of this treatment modality in sepsis has diminished.

Diagnosis of Portal Hypertension: Advancing Towards Non‐Invasive Solutions

Portal Hypertension &Cirrhosis, EarlyView.
This review systematically summarizes a full spectrum of non‐invasive diagnostic approaches for portal hypertension (PH), including imaging modalities, elastography, serum biomarkers, composite scoring systems and endoscopic ultrasound‐guided portal pressure gradient (EUS‐PPG), and analyzes their performance across different liver disease etiologies ...

The Histidine 382 Residue Influences the Thermal Stability and Binding Propensity of the E2 Domain of Amyloid Precursor Protein

Proteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The E2 domain of amyloid precursor protein (APP_E2) plays a central role in the protein's function. We reinvestigate how the missense mutation, ΔH382L, affects the domain's thermal stability and ligand binding propensity through differential scanning fluorometry.

Evolutionary Mechanisms of Coagulation Factors in Cetaceans During Aquatic Adaptation

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Compared with Bos taurus, T. truncatus showed shorter prothrombin time and thrombin time but prolonged activated partial thromboplastin time, indicating pathway‐specific remodeling of coagulation. Evolutionary analyses identified 18 positively selected genes and accelerated F11 evolution, while functional assays revealed increased coagulation factor ...

The purification and mechanism of action of human antithrombin-heparin cofactor.

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 1973
A procedure is presented for purifying antithrombin-heparin cofactor from human plasma. The final product is homogeneous as judged by disc gel electrophoresis, sodium dodecyl sulfate gel electrophoresis, and immunoelectrophoresis.

Improving ARTs: Microfluidics as a Tool for Sperm Selection

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sperm selection is a critical step in assisted reproductive technology (ART), as sperm quality directly influences embryo quality. In vivo, the female reproductive tract imposes several physical and physiological barriers that favors only the most optimal spermatozoa reaching the fertilization site.

Antithrombin III/SerpinC1 insufficiency exacerbates renal ischemia/reperfusion injury

Kidney International, 2015
Antithrombin III, encoded by SerpinC1, is a major anti-coagulation molecule in vivo and has anti-inflammatory effects. We found that patients with low antithrombin III activities presented a higher risk of developing acute kidney injury after cardiac ...

Pulmonary Embolism—A Century of Progress

ANZ Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
Reviews a century of progress in the diagnosis, prevention, and management of pulmonary embolism; from the first successful surgical embolectomy in 1924 to advanced imaging, pharmacological thromboprophylaxis, and treatment. In the 21st century, advances include catheter‐directed thrombolysis or mechanical thrombectomy under decision‐making guidance of

Venous Thromboembolism in Hematologic Malignancies: Incidence, Risk Factors, and the Role of Direct Oral Anticoagulants

European Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Thrombotic events, particularly venous thromboembolism (VTE), are a significant source of morbidity and mortality among patients with hematologic malignancies. These patients face unique challenges due to treatment‐related complications such as thrombocytopenia, coagulopathy, and heightened bleeding risk.
