eVLP‐Mediated Cas9 Delivery for Preventing IBMIR in Islet Transplantation

open access: yesSmall, Volume 22, Issue 1, 2 January 2026.
Engineered virus‐like particles (eVLPs) are used to deliver Cas9 nuclease to knock out tissue factor (TF) and plasminogen activator inhibitor‐1 (PAI‐1) genes in pancreatic islets. The edited islets maintained viability and function, while reducing instant blood‐mediated inflammatory reaction (IBMIR) markers and improving glycemic control in diabetic ...

Anti-atherosclerotic effects between a combined treatment with simvastatin plus hirudin and single simvastatin therapy in patients with early type 2 diabetes mellitus

open access: yesAnnals of Translational Medicine, 2019
This study aimed to investigate the efficacy and safety of simvastatin plus hirudin in preventing atherosclerosis in the patients with early type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).This was a 24-week, randomized, open-label and controlled study in which 150 outpatients initially diagnosed with T2DM were randomly assigned into either simvastatin (40 mg daily at

New Advances in Biologic Treatment for Malignant Atrophic Papulosis: A Systematic Review

open access: yesDermatologic Therapy, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Background Malignant atrophic papulosis (MAP) is the systemic subtype of Degos disease, characterized by high lethality. Currently there is no standardized treatment protocol. Steroids and immunosuppressive therapies result in limited effectiveness. Biologic treatments offer promising therapeutic potential for MAP and significantly improve prognosis ...

The Emergency Use of Recombinant Hirudin in Cardiopulmonary Bypass

open access: yes, 2005
The most common anticoagulant used for cardiopumonary bypass is heparin. An alternate form of anticoagulant therapy is needed for patients who have immune-mediated heparin-associated thrombocytopenia (HIT).

A comparison of recombinant Hirudin with Heparin for the treatment of acute coronary syndromes. The Global Use of Strategies to Open Occluded Coronary Arteries (GUSTO) IIb Investigators [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
BACKGROUND: Thrombin has a pivotal role in the pathogenesis of acute coronary thrombosis. We compared the clinical efficacy of a potent, direct thrombin inhibitor, recombinant hirudin, with that of heparin (an indirect antithrombin agent) in patients ...

Proprotein Convertase Subtilisin/Kexin Type 9 (PCSK9): The Multifaceted Biology, Diseases, and Pharmaceutical Interventions

open access: yesMedComm, Volume 6, Issue 11, November 2025.
Summary of PCSK9 inhibitor mechanisms. PCSK9 inhibitors (PCSK9‐i) primarily lower LDL‐cholesterol (LDL‐C) by blocking PCSK9‐mediated degradation of hepatic LDL receptors (LDLR), enhancing LDL clearance. Beyond LDLR‐dependent effects, PCSK9‐i exert multiple benefits via LDLR‐independent pathways.

Centromeric Sequences in Ogataea polymorpha Genome Enable Development of Stable Multigene Expression Plasmid Tools

open access: yesMicrobial Biotechnology, Volume 18, Issue 11, November 2025.
The centromeric sequences of Ogataea polymorpha, a methylotrophic non‐conventional yeast, were characterised for the first time and support the development of new genetically stable centromeric plasmids with high genetic stability and compatibility, providing powerful genetic toolboxes for the synthetic biology and metabolic engineering‐driven ...

Randomized Comparison of Direct Thrombin Inhibition Versus Heparin in Conjunction With Fibrinolytic Therapy for Acute Myocardial Infarction: Results From the GUSTO-IIb Trial

open access: yes, 1998
Objectives. We sought to show that hirudin might interact differently with streptokinase (SK) and tissue-type plasminogen activator (t-PA), which could reduce the incidence of death or reinfarction at 30 days.Background.

Emerging Strategies for Platelet‐Modified Nanoparticles in Targeted Tumor Therapy

open access: yesAdvanced NanoBiomed Research, Volume 5, Issue 10, October 2025.
This review highlights innovative strategies using platelet‐modified nanoparticles to target tumors more precisely. By mimicking platelet functions, these biomimetic carriers improve tumor homing, enhance drug delivery, and reduce immune clearance.
