Antithrombin deficiency in pregnancy [PDF]

BMJ Case Reports, 2016
We present a case of a 39-year-old, gravida 3 para 2, Chinese female with a history of inherited type 1 Antithrombin deficiency and multiple prior episodes of venous thromboembolism. She presented at 29+4 weeks' gestation with severe pre-eclampsia complicated by haemolysis, elevated liver enzymes and low platelet (HELLP) syndrome.

Design and Engineering of an Artificial Bifunctional N‐Deacetylase/N‐Sulfotransferase for the Biosynthesis of N‐Sulfated Heparosan

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
An artificial bifunctional N‐deacetylase/N‐sulfotransferase was engineered in Escherichia coli by combining screened N‐deacetylases with an NST domain. The integrated engineering strategy improved enzyme performance. The optimized enzyme efficiently converted heparosan into N‐sulfated heparosan, addressing a key bottleneck in microbial heparin ...

Safety and Feasibility of Magnetic Separation‐Based Blood Purification

Advanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
We present the preclinical biological safety and translational feasibility of a magnetic nanoparticle‐based extracorporeal blood purification platform for removal of disease‐causing blood factors. ISO 10993‐compliant studies and exaggerated worst‐case exposure models demonstrate efficient nanoparticle extraction (≥99.9%), favorable biocompatibility ...

Engineering Biology Beyond Single Genes: Advances and Challenges in Multiplex Genome Editing

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Multiplex genome editing is transforming genome engineering from single‐gene perturbation to network‐level control, yet its broader application remains limited by challenges in gRNA array engineering, delivery technologies, and safety management. Emerging AI‐driven approaches are accelerating guide RNA design and CRISPR effector optimization for ...

Harnessing blood clot as a native scaffold for orchestrating tissue repairs and regeneration

BMEMat, EarlyView.
The blood clot, owing to its dynamic composition and unique microenvironment, holds significant yet underappreciated potential for tissue engineering. This review systematically summarizes the pathophysiology of clot formation, the key regulatory factors shaping its microenvironment, and its applications in both pre‐clinical and clinical settings ...

Thrombin-Fibrin(ogen) Interactions, Host Defense and Risk of Thrombosis

, 2021
Fibrinogen is a well-known risk factor for arterial and venous thrombosis. Its function is not restricted to clot formation, however, as it partakes in a complex interplay between thrombin, soluble plasma fibrinogen, and deposited fibrin matrices ...

Establishment of Reference Intervals for Thrombus Biomarkers in a Single‐Center Chinese Population Using Indirect Methods

Journal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, EarlyView.
This study established and validated comprehensive RIs for four key thrombus biomarkers (TAT, PIC, TM, and t‐PAIC) in a Chinese population using the Hoffmann and Bhattacharya indirect methods on a large clinical dataset. The tailored RIs offer a practical tool for early detection and risk assessment of thrombotic diseases, supporting more precise and ...

Unfractionated Heparin and Low‐Molecular‐Weight Heparin in Sepsis: Anti‐Inflammatory and Anticoagulant Effects Versus No Anticoagulation—A Propensity Score‐Matched Analysis

Journal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, EarlyView.
This propensity score‐matched study compared unfractionated heparin (UFH) and low‐molecular‐weight heparin (LMWH) in 1362 sepsis patients, finding that both significantly improved survival without increasing 90‐day bleeding risk. However, their therapeutic mechanisms differed: UFH demonstrated broader anti‐inflammatory effects by reducing IL‐6, IL‐8 ...

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,
