Activation of the Urokinase Plasminogen Activator/Urokinase Plasminogen Activator Receptor System in Periodontitis: A Case–Control Study

International Journal of Dental Hygiene, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction The plasminogen activating (PA) system has a multitude of functions such as wound healing, proteolytic activity, collagen degradation and cell growth, and the role of the urokinase plasminogen activator/urokinase plasminogen activator receptor (uPA/uPAR) system has been studied in many disease states.

Effect of Growth of Walker 256 Carcinosarcoma on the Fibrinolytic System of the Rat Plasma and Urine

, 1970
Growth of a transplanted Walker 256 carcinosarcoma in rats was accompanied by: 1) An increase in plasma fibrinogen and urinary trypsin inhibitors; 2) A significant decrease in plasma plasminogen and hematocrit; 3) A decrease in urokinase activity in ...

The Biological Basis of the Merlin CP‐GEP Assay: Integrin Signaling and Early Metastatic Competence in Cutaneous Melanoma

International Journal of Dermatology, EarlyView.
Merlin CP‐GEP integrates mechanistic insights into a clinically actionable assay to predict SLN metastasis risk and inform personalized management of cutaneous melanoma. ABSTRACT The recent inclusion of the Merlin clinicopathologic–gene expression profile (CP‐GEP) assay in the National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) Melanoma Guidelines represents ...

Genetic Susceptibility to Periodontitis

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
Aim: The aim of this narrative review was to identify genes carrying risk alleles associated with an increased risk of periodontitis and to place them in a biological context. Methods: The literature was reviewed based on predefined criteria. Results: The identified genes largely fall into functions linking immune response with tissue repair. The genes

Atrophic Papulosis: A Systematic Review of Pediatric Cases

Pediatric Dermatology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Atrophic papulosis is a rare occlusive vasculopathy that can present with isolated cutaneous disease or with systemic involvement. Pediatric cases are uncommon, and existing reports are heterogeneous, limiting understanding of disease patterns, timing of organ involvement, and outcomes.

Purification, physicochemical and funtional characterisation of Glossina Morsitans centralis fibrinolysins.

, 2017
Tsetse flies are blood-sucking insects. The ability to keep their blood meal in an anticoagulated state by means of anticoagulant(s), fibrinogenuse(s), fibrinolysin(s) or plasminogen activator like activities is essential to their survival.

Genetic risk variants implicate impaired maintenance and repair of periodontal tissues as causal for periodontitis—A synthesis of recent findings

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
AbstractPeriodontitis is a complex inflammatory disease in which the host genome, in conjunction with extrinsic factors, determines susceptibility and progression. Genetic predisposition is the strongest risk factor in the first decades of life. As people age, chronic exposure to the periodontal microbiome puts a strain on the proper maintenance of ...

Chemical Synthesis and Functional Screening of an 800 000‐Member Library Using a Peptide‐Pairing Strategy

Angewandte Chemie, Volume 138, Issue 44, 26 October 2026.
Chemical peptide synthesis allows the generation of structurally highly diverse compounds suited for ligand development, but current methods in parallel peptide synthesis limit the achievable library size to a few thousand. A strategy is presented based on combinatorial pairing of short peptides via disulfide linkage that enables the generation and ...

Just one thing to reduce bleeding: Put tranexamic acid on the safe surgical checklist at your hospital

Transfusion Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives To highlight tranexamic acid (TXA) as ‘just one thing’ that every hospital could implement to reduce surgical bleeding and blood transfusions. Background TXA is a low‐cost antifibrinolytic agent that inhibits the breakdown of fibrin blood clots. Developed in Japan in the 1960s, it has been shown to reduce surgical bleeding.

Warburg redefined: Metabolites, mitochondria and macrophages in immune regulation

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Following pro‐inflammatory stimulation, macrophages undergo Warburg‐like metabolic rewiring that extends more than increased glycolysis. The non‐canonical functions of glycolytic enzymes and lactate accumulation control macrophage immune responses through multiple signalling pathways (a).
