Hereditary angioedema (HAE) in children and adolescents : a consensus on therapeutic strategies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Hereditary angioedema due to C1 inhibitor (C1 esterase inhibitor) deficiency (types I and II HAE-C1-INH) is a rare disease that usually presents during childhood or adolescence with intermittent episodes of potentially life-threatening angioedema ...

Engineering Highly Cellularized Living Materials via Mechanical Agitation

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, Volume 35, Issue 40, October 1, 2025.
A mechanical agitation strategy is developed to engineer highly cellularized living materials, achieving cell densities of up to 1 billion cells per milliliter. By precisely tuning properties such as stiffness and toughness in blood clots, the approach is validated in both in vitro and in vivo studies.

The Evolution of Functional Amyloids and Their Impact on Host–Microbe Interactions

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 38, October 13, 2025.
This review describes functional amyloids and highlights the importance of structural repetition and molecular mimicry that distinguish the amyloid fold. The authors describe how amyloid can be the last universal common ancestor of protein folds. The authors also discuss how microbes utilize functional amyloids and how the structural characteristics of

The plasmin-antiplasmin system: structural and functional aspects [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The plasmin-antiplasmin system plays a key role in blood coagulation and fibrinolysis. Plasmin and α2-antiplasmin are primarily responsible for a controlled and regulated dissolution of the fibrin polymers into soluble fragments. However, besides plasmin(

Lytic and mechanical stability of clots composed of fibrin and blood vessel wall components. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Background Proteases expressed in atherosclerotic plaque lesions generate collagen fragments, release glycosaminoglycans (chondroitin sulfate [CS] and dermatan sulfate [DS]) and expose extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins (e.g.

Tau Amyloid Corona‐Shelled Nanoparticle‐Based Drug Screening Platform for Discovering Tau Oligomer‐Degrading Drugs

open access: yesAggregate, Volume 6, Issue 10, October 2025.
Tau amyloid corona‐shelled nanoparticles (TACONs) were synthesized by incubating gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) with tau monomers that had been pre‐reacted with heparin. These TACONs represent a promising high‐throughput screening platform for identifying tau oligomer degraders as potential therapeutic agents for Alzheimer's disease.

Prognostic value of hypercalcemia in COVID‐19 infection: Retrospective cohort study

open access: yesHong Kong Journal of Emergency Medicine, Volume 32, Issue 5, October 2025.
Abstract Purpose An increased incidence of hypercalcemia and the proposed prognostic value of calcium have been reported in patients with COVID‐19. We analyzed demographics, calcium levels, laboratory values, and clinical outcomes to determine the impact of calcium levels on survival.

Chemical Adjustment of Fibrinolysis

open access: yesPharmaceuticals
Fibrinolysis is the process of the fibrin–platelet clot dissolution initiated after bleeding has been stopped. It is regulated by a cascade of proteolytic enzymes with plasmin at its core.

Activation of Matrix Metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) via a Converging Plasmin/Stromelysin-1 Cascade Enhances Tumor Cell Invasion*

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 1999
Matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) may play a critical catalytic role in tissue remodeling in vivo, but it is secreted by cells as a stable, inactive zymogen, pro-MMP-9, and requires activation for catalytic function.
