Top‐Down CSF Peptidomics Reveals Disease‐Associated Peptide Signatures and Oxidative Modifications in Multiple Sclerosis and Neuromyelitis Optica Spectrum Disorder

PROTEOMICS, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Multiple sclerosis and neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) are inflammatory demyelinating diseases of the CNS whose diagnosis is mainly based on clinical evidence, magnetic resonance imaging, and the analysis of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). Current approaches provide only partial insight into disease‐related biological processes, thus

T-SP1: a novel serine protease-like protein predominantly expressed in testis [PDF]

, 2008
Here, we describe a novel member in the group of membrane-anchored chymotrypsin (S1)-like serine proteases, namely testis serine protease 1 (T-SP1), as it is principally expressed in testis tissue.

Exploring Periodontal Conditions, Salivary Markers, and Systemic Inflammation in Patients with Cardiovascular Diseases

Biomedicines
(1) Background: This cross-sectional investigation appreciated the role of serum C-reactive protein (CRP), several hematologic-cell markers, and salivary inflammation-related molecules [calprotectin (S100A8/A9), interleukin-1β (IL-1β), kallikrein] to ...

Bioactive Gold Plasmonic Interfaces Meet Artificial Intelligence: Advancing Saliva‐Based Surface‐Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy Diagnostics

Small, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Bioactive gold plasmonic nanostructures are enabling non‐invasive saliva diagnostics by amplifying weak Raman signals and converting complex biofluid chemistry into information‐rich spectral fingerprints. This Review examines saliva‐based Raman and surface‐enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) integrated with artificial intelligence (AI) from a ...

Towards understanding the kallikrein-kinin system: insights from measurement of kinin peptides

Brazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2000
The kallikrein-kinin system is complex, with several bioactive peptides that are formed in many different compartments. Kinin peptides are implicated in many physiological and pathological processes including the regulation of blood pressure and sodium ...

Integrative proteomic profiling of extracellular vesicle‐enriched preparations with machine learning identifies disease activity‐associated signatures linked to adverse pregnancy outcomes in systemic lupus erythematosus

VIEW, EarlyView.
Integrating cross‐cohort extracellular vesicle proteomics with machine learning identifies a simplified protein signature (AGT, FETUB, SPP2, and FCN3) for adverse pregnancy outcome risk stratification in systemic lupus erythematosus, enabling precise disease‐activity discrimination beyond routine clinical assessment.

Protease: Serpin complexes to assess contact system and intrinsic pathway activation

Research and Practice in Thrombosis and Haemostasis, 2020
Mounting evidence suggests that a variety of disease states are pathophysiologically related to activation of the contact system in vivo. The plasma contact system is composed of a cascade of serine proteases initiated by surface activation of factor XII,

Evolutionary Mechanisms of Coagulation Factors in Cetaceans During Aquatic Adaptation

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Compared with Bos taurus, T. truncatus showed shorter prothrombin time and thrombin time but prolonged activated partial thromboplastin time, indicating pathway‐specific remodeling of coagulation. Evolutionary analyses identified 18 positively selected genes and accelerated F11 evolution, while functional assays revealed increased coagulation factor ...

Cellular expression of plasma prekallikrein in human tissues [PDF]

, 2007
Plasma prekallikrein (PPK) is synthesised in hepatocytes and secreted into the blood, where it participates in the surface-dependent activation of blood coagulation, fibrinolysis, kinin generation and inflammation.

Dupilumab in Paediatric Netherton Syndrome: Two Case Reports and a Review of the Literature

Australasian Journal of Dermatology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Netherton Syndrome (NS) is a rare genodermatosis characterised by a triad of ichthyosiform erythroderma, an atopic diathesis, and trichorrhexis invaginata, for which no effective management is currently approved in Australia. Dupilumab has demonstrated considerable effectiveness in the treatment of atopic conditions in the paediatric ...
