Cryoglobulinemia and double‐filtration plasmapheresis: Personal experience and literature review

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, Volume 27, Issue 1, Page 159-169, February 2023., 2023
Abstract Background Cryoglobulinemia is defined as the presence of an abnormal immunoglobulin that may be responsible for vasculitis of small‐caliber vessels. Apheresis can be used in order to temporarily eliminate circulating cryoglobulins. The aim of this study was to assess the effectiveness of apheresis (double‐filtration plasmapheresis‐DFPP‐) in ...

Stress induced aging in mouse eye

Aging Cell, Volume 21, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022
Skowronska‐Krawczyk and colleagues describe the transcriptional and epigenetic changes happening in aging retina. They also show that upon stress such as intraocular pressure elevation in the eye, retinal tissue undergoes epigenetic and transcriptional changes similar to natural aging.
