Altered cytoskeletal integrity underlies impaired platelet shape change and defective thrombus formation in ETV6‐related thrombocytopenia

open access: yesBritish Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
Summary ETV6‐related thrombocytopenia (ETV6‐RT) is an inherited platelet disorder caused by germline ETV6 variants. Despite recent progress, the mechanisms underlying platelet dysfunction in ETV6‐RT remain unclear. We investigated 12 patients from six families using functional assays, electron microscopy, quantitative proteomics and cytoskeletal ...

Albumin Restores Endothelial Cell Mitochondrial Morphology in Patients With Decompensated Cirrhosis

open access: yesLiver International, Volume 46, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Background & Aims Endothelial cell (EC) activation is a critical driver of disease progression in cirrhosis, contributing to acute decompensation (AD) and acute‐on‐chronic liver failure (ACLF). Although human albumin administration improves EC function in cirrhotic patients with hypoalbuminemia, its direct effects on ECs remain unclear.

Scrotal Hirudiniasis: The Mysterious Migration of a Leech Into the Scrotum: A Case Report

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Hirudiniasis, or leech infestation, is a rare parasitic condition typically involving external skin or mucosal surfaces. We report a case of scrotal hirudiniasis, an 11 cm long leech discovered within the scrotal sac of a 15‐year‐old male.

Expression, purification and characterization of recombinant targeting bifunctional hirudin in Pichia pastoris [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
A recombinant targeting bifunctional hirudin was expressed in the yeast Pichia pastoris. In order to decrease the side effects of hirudin and increase its activity to prevent arterial thrombus, we fused a factor Xa (FXa) recognition sequence into N’ of ...

Efficacy and Safety of Hirudotherapy for Improving Sperm Quality Parameters in Male Infertility: A Randomized Controlled Trial

open access: yesHealth Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Male infertility, often characterized by impaired sperm parameters, remains a significant clinical challenge. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of hirudotherapy (medicinal leech therapy) in improving sperm quality parameters in men with idiopathic infertility.
