Degradation mechanism of the von Willebrand factor A2 domain by nattokinase

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Nattokinase, a natto‐derived protease, exhibits potent antithrombotic effects. This study demonstrates that nattokinase directly cleaves the von Willebrand factor (vWF) A2 domain in vitro. Unlike the native regulator ADAMTS13, nattokinase degrades folded vWF independently of shear stress.

Evidence of bacterial imprints in different types of non-struvite kidney stones

open access: yesBMC Urology
Background Recent studies of renal lithiasis identified bacterial imprints in apatite phosphate stones and mixed calcium oxalate/apatite phosphate stones, neither of which contained struvite.

Metastatic calcification

open access: yesDermatology Online Journal, 2003
Calciphylaxis is a rare, painful, and debilitating disease of widespread metastatic calcification that progresses to ischemic tissue necrosis. It occurs almost exclusively in patients with end-stage renal disease and secondary hyperparathyroidism. Reticulated, violaceous, mottled patches commonly appear on the lower extremities and progress to cordlike

Calcific Myonecrosis

open access: yesacta orthopaedica et traumatologica turcica, 2008
Calcific myonecrosis is a rare complication of limb trauma, that may occur after many years. It is characterized by dystrophic calcification that develops in the late period following compartment syndrome usually in the lower limb. We present a 66-year-old man who developed calcific myonecrosis 35 years after surgical intervention for compartment ...

Microbiome−host proteostasis crosstalk—An emerging perspective on mechanisms and interventions toward healthy longevity

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Proteostasis and the gut microbiota play a key role in shaping host physiology. Microbiota‐derived metabolites, vitamins, and RNA modulate host proteostasis. Findings from model systems, including C. elegans, indicate microbes can either stabilize or disrupt host proteostasis.

Temperature amplifies the effect of high CO2 on the photosynthesis, respiration, and calcification of the coralline algae Phymatolithon lusitanicum [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The combination of ocean acidification (OA) and global warming is expected to have a significant effect on the diversity and functioning of marine ecosystems, particularly on calcifying algae such as rhodoliths (maërl) that form extensive beds worldwide,

Probiotic Supplementation in Chronic Kidney Disease: Outcomes on Uremic Toxins, Inflammation, and Vascular Calcification from Experimental and Clinical Models

open access: yesToxins
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is associated with gut microbiota alterations that contribute to increased inflammation and the generation of uremic toxins and may worsen the disease progression.

ABL kinase‐dependent phosphorylation of SH proteins promotes their direct interaction with CRK family SH2 domains

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
CT10 regulator of kinase (CRK) and CRK‐Like (CRKL) are signaling adaptors driving cell adhesion, motility, differentiation, and proliferation. SH2‐domain containing (SH) proteins are enriched in YXXP motifs which when phosphorylated create preferred binding sites for CRK family SH2 domains.

A newly established culture method highlights regulatory roles of retinoic acid on morphogenesis and calcification of mammalian limb cartilage

open access: yesBioTechniques, 2015
During mammalian embryogenesis, sclerotome-derived chondrocytes in the limb bud are arranged into a complicated bone shape with specific areas undergoing hypertrophy and calcification, creating a region-specific mineralized pattern in the cartilage.
