Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) is a relapsing autoimmune disease of the central nervous system. High‐dose intravenous methylprednisolone (IVMP) is the standard first‐line therapy for acute attacks, although some patients remain refractory.

GEF-effector interactions [PDF]
Cellular Logistics, 2014 Members of the Arf family of small GTP-binding proteins, or GTPases, are activated by guanine nucleotide exchange factors (GEFs) that catalyze GDP release from their substrate Arf, allowing GTP to bind. In the secretory pathway, Arf1 is first activated by GBF1 at the cis-Golgi, then by BIG1 and BIG2 at the trans-Golgi and trans-Golgi network (TGN ...

Dietary Protein Intake and Peritoneal Protein Losses in Peritoneal Dialysis Patients
Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Introduction Peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients lose protein in their waste dialysate, potentially increasing their risk for malnutrition. We wished to determine whether there was any association between losses and dietary protein intake (DPI). Methods DPI was assessed from 24‐h dietary recall using Nutrics software.

Ionic immune suppression within the tumour microenvironment limits T cell effector function
Nature, 2016 Tumours progress despite being infiltrated by tumour-specific effector T cells. Tumours contain areas of cellular necrosis, which are associated with poor survival in a variety of cancers. Here, we show that necrosis releases intracellular potassium ions

EFFECTOR CD8 T CELLS DEDIFFERENTIATE INTO LONG-LIVED MEMORY CELLS
Nature, 2017 Memory CD8 T cells that circulate in the blood and are present in lymphoid organs are an essential component of long-lived T cell immunity. These memory CD8 T cells remain poised to rapidly elaborate effector functions upon re-exposure to pathogens, but ...

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Introduction Bloodstream infections due to repeated vascular access (VA) puncture and circuit connections remain major concerns in hemodialysis. Therefore, we examined current practices for glove, disinfectant, and personal protective equipment (PPE) use according to VA type in national university hospitals in Japan.

A Bibliometric Analysis of Publications in Uremic Toxins From 1991 to 2024
Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Uremic toxins are a growing area of research in nephrology, with significant implications in the progression and treatment of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and the management of end‐stage kidney disease (ESKD). This bibliometric analysis aims to evaluate the global research trends, key contributors, and the impact of publications in ...
