Low-Density Lipoprotein Apheresis in Patients with Acute Kidney Injury Due to Minimal Change Disease Requiring Acute Renal Replacement Therapy. [PDF]
Int J Nephrol Renovasc Dis, 2020 Low-density lipoprotein apheresis (LDL-A) has been developed as a therapy for familial hypercholesterolemia, but LDL-A has also been used as a general treatment for drug-resistant nephrotic syndrome (NS) due to focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS ...

Study of biochemical changes after plateletpheresis in healthy male donors [PDF]
, 2018 BACKGROUND: There is relatively little information about endogenous biochemical changes in a response to plateletpheresis in healthy donors. We aimed to investigate the changes in different biochemical parameters including glycemic status, insulin ...

Acute impact of apheresis on oxidized phospholipids in patients with familial hypercholesterolemia1
Journal of Lipid Research, 2012 We measured oxidized phospholipids (OxPL), lipoprotein (a) [Lp(a)], and lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2 (Lp-PLA2) pre- and postapheresis in 18 patients with familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) and with low(∼10 mg/dl; range 10–11 mg/dl ...

From platelets to particles: Optimizing extracellular vesicle isolation in a National Blood Centre
Vox Sanguinis, EarlyView.Abstract Background and Objectives Platelet‐derived extracellular vesicles (PEVs) are submicron, membrane‐bound particles released upon platelet activation, with a recognized role in haemostasis, inflammation and immunoregulation. PEVs remain insufficiently characterized in blood products.

Effect of a novel nutraceutical combination on serum lipoprotein functional profile and circulating PCSK9 [PDF]
, 2017 BACKGROUND: A beneficial effect on cardiovascular risk may be obtained by improving lipid-related serum lipoprotein functions such as high-density lipoproteins (HDLs) cholesterol efflux capacity (CEC) and serum cholesterol loading capacity (CLC) and by ...

Recent Progress in Double Filtration Plasmapheresis
Hemodialysis International, Volume 30, Issue 1, Page 18-25, January 2026.ABSTRACT Double‐filtration plasmapheresis is an advanced extracorporeal blood purification technique that selectively removes pathogenic macromolecules based on molecular weight. Unlike conventional plasma exchange, double‐filtration plasmapheresis uses a two‐step filtration process to retain beneficial plasma components such as albumin, while ...
