Neutrophil Extracellular Traps Block Fibrinolysis in Ischemic Stroke

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objectives Intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) failure in acute ischemic stroke (AIS) is frequent, but its causes remain elusive. We investigated whether biologically relevant intrathrombus concentrations of tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) were achieved in failed IVT and whether neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) contributed to this therapeutic ...

Higher Complement C4 Gene Copy Number Constitutes a Shared Genetic Risk Factor for Giant Cell Arteritis and IgA Vasculitis

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Low copy number (CN) of complement C4 isoforms and high CN of retroviral HERV‐K elements are known risk factors for many immune‐mediated inflammatory diseases (IMIDs), often showing sex‐biased effects. Here, we assessed whether CN variation within the C4 gene contributes to giant cell arteritis (GCA) and IgA vasculitis (IgAV), two complex ...

The association between systemic inflammation as measured by calprotectin and autoantibody load in rheumatoid arthritis

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, Accepted Article.
Background Plasma calprotectin is a marker of neutrophil activity. Its relation to the clinical phenotype and autoantibodies in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is only partly understood. We therefore aimed to investigate the association between calprotectin and clinical parameters, CRP, ESR, anti‐CCP2 and other anti‐modified protein autoantibodies (AMPAs) in

Extracellular Vesicles‐Based Biological Macromolecule Delivery Systems: Biogenesis, Characterization, and Emerging Clinical Applications

open access: yesBiotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are nanoscale membrane‐bound structures that play a pivotal role in intercellular communication by transporting bioactive molecules, including proteins, lipids, nucleic acids, and organelles, between cells. Originating from the endosomal pathway, EVs reflect the physiological and pathological status of their parent
