Snake Venom Disintegrins and Cell Migration [PDF]
Cell migration is a key process for the defense of pluricellular organisms against pathogens, and it involves a set of surface receptors acting in an ordered fashion to contribute directionality to the movement.

Recombinant and Chimeric Disintegrins in Preclinical Research
Disintegrins are a family of small cysteine-rich peptides, found in a wide variety of snake venoms of different phylogenetic origin. These peptides selectively bind to integrins, which are heterodimeric adhesion receptors that play a fundamental role in ...

How we manage immune‐mediated thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura after rituximab failure or intolerance [PDF]
The use of rituximab as a pre‐emptive treatment in immune‐mediated thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (iTTP) is the current standard of care. However, for patients refractory to rituximab or for those with contraindication, further treatment guidelines are scarce.

PACSIN2 Is a Regulator of the Metalloprotease/Disintegrin ADAM13
ADAM13 is a cell surface metalloprotease expressed in cephalic neural crest cells during early Xenopus development. The cytoplasmic domain of ADAM13 contains three potential SH3 (Src homology type 3) binding sites, suggesting that this region may support interactions with intracellular proteins.
