The Evolution of Functional Amyloids and Their Impact on Host–Microbe Interactions
Advanced Science, EarlyView.This review describes functional amyloids and highlights the importance of structural repetition and molecular mimicry that distinguish the amyloid fold. The authors describe how amyloid can be the last universal common ancestor of protein folds. The authors also discuss how microbes utilize functional amyloids and how the structural characteristics of

Aggregate, EarlyView.Tau amyloid corona‐shelled nanoparticles (TACONs) were synthesized by incubating gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) with tau monomers that had been pre‐reacted with heparin. These TACONs represent a promising high‐throughput screening platform for identifying tau oligomer degraders as potential therapeutic agents for Alzheimer's disease.

Antiphospholipid Syndrome: An Antibody‐Mediated Disease With Emerging Therapeutic Opportunities
Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.Antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) is an autoimmune thromboinflammatory disease characterized by vascular thrombosis, pregnancy morbidity, and other manifestations driven by antiphospholipid autoantibodies. In this review, we present a clinical case that illustrates some diagnostic and therapeutic challenges in managing severe, relapsing APS ...

Veterinary Staphylo-Fibrinolysin.
Experimental Biology and Medicine, 1936 In an examination of 132 local strains of staphylococci† it was found that 80% of all strains originally isolated from internal human lesions are capable of liquefying human fibrin.1 Approximately 90% of all strains isolated from superficial human infections, however, and all strains isolated from veterinary lesions are non-lytic by the same in vitro ...

Arthritis &Rheumatology, Accepted Article.Objective Cardiovascular events are major determinants of morbidity and mortality in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), particularly in patients with renal involvement. While oxidative stress has been implicated in driving vascular and renal damage in SLE, the specific mechanisms remain unclear.

Studies on identification of menstrual blood stain by fibrin-plate method. I. A study on the incoagulability of menstrual blood [PDF]
, 1962 As the results of present study on plasmin in menstrual blood by means of the Fibrin-Plate Method, a large amount of plasmin as much as dilution of 1: 100 or 1:1,000 of the menstrual blood serum, has been found in a natural form and it is deduced that ...

Stability of Thrombin in the Presence of Fibrinolysin.
Experimental Biology and Medicine, 1947 SummaryIt has been shown that fibrinolysin does not affect the clotting activity of thrombin, and that the thrombin preparation increased the stability of fibrinolysin under the conditions of these experiments.

Clinical Advances in Periodontics, EarlyView.Abstract Background In soft tissue regeneration, the clinical efficacy of fibrin membranes has been a pressing concern. The key to this efficacy lies in the stability of membrane and its controlled absorption. Human serum albumin, with its influence on the formation and stability of fibrin networks, could hold the key to developing a more stable ...
