Blood protein-polymer adsorption: Implications for understanding complement-mediated hemoincompatibility

open access: yes, 2011
The aim of this study was to create polymeric materials with known properties to study the preconditions for complement activation. Initially, 22 polymers were screened for complement activating capacity. Based on these results, six polymers (P1-P6) were

Bioresponsive pseudoGlucosinolates (psGSLs) Release Isothiocyanates (ITCs) in the Presence of Nitroreductases

open access: yesChemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
This work introduces the concept of pseudoglucosinolates (psGSLs) and reports the synthesis and evaluation of nitroreductase‐responsive psGSLs. These compounds represent a complementary prodrug strategy to natural glucosinolates (GSLs) for the controlled release of isothiocyanates (ITCs), enabling bio‐responsive protein labeling, as demonstrated in ...

WONOEP XVII appraisal: The role of the extracellular matrix in epilepsy

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract The extracellular matrix (ECM) is composed of proteoglycans and glycoproteins that regulate the external environment surrounding neurons, glia, and the vascular system. The ECM is vital for maintaining the structure and function of the brain and also acts as a reservoir for various signaling molecules and neurotransmitters, modulating synaptic
