Expert Consensus on the Diagnosis and Monitoring of Paroxysmal Nocturnal Hemoglobinuria (PNH): An Algorithmic Approach in an Era of New Treatments

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH) is a rare hematologic disorder caused by a defect of glycosylphosphatidyl‐anchored proteins, leading to an uncontrolled complement‐mediated hemolysis. The advent of complement inhibitors in clinical practice radically changed patients' outcomes and survival.

Von Willebrand Factor and ADAMTS13 in Relation to Atherosclerosis in the General Population: The Rotterdam Study

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Higher von Willebrand factor (VWF) levels and lower ADAMTS13 activity are linked to increased risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, but their association with atherosclerosis burden, a potential underlying mechanism, remains unclear.

ALOX15 mediates thrombin‐induced myristoylation, trafficking, and interaction of protease‐activated receptors, leading to platelet activation and hemostasis

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
The role of PARs in platelet function is fairly known; however, the underlying mechanisms are not fully understood. We report that thrombin myristoylates PAR4 in mouse platelets and PAR1 and PAR4 in human platelets, facilitating their membrane transport and interaction, leading to PAR3/4 heterodimers in mice and PAR1/4 heterodimers in humans.

Constrictions and shear stress are key determinants of amyloidogenic light chain (AL) amyloidosis

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
In this study, we investigate how flow constrictions and shear stress trigger cardiac antibody light chain (AL) fibril formation and deposition. We mimic the mechanical forces exerted by the heart and the microvasculature network using a mini‐peristaltic pump setup and a grid‐type microchannel network, respectively.

Performing Large‐Scale Genetic Analysis in the Bleeding Disorders Community

open access: yesHaemophilia, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Inherited bleeding disorders encompass a diverse group of conditions caused by genetic defects affecting coagulation factors, fibrinogen, von Willebrand factor, or platelet function. Despite major advances in quantitative and functional laboratory assays, a substantial diagnostic gap remains, particularly in patients with mild or atypical ...

Intima‐Media Thickness Progression Rate and Primary Unassisted Patency Failure in Arteriovenous Fistulas: A Prospective Cohort Study

open access: yesHemodialysis International, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Failure of autogenous arteriovenous fistulas (AV fistulas) due to venous neointimal hyperplasia is a major clinical challenge. Whether the rate of progression in venous intima‐media thickness predicts primary unassisted patency failure remains unknown.
