Exogenous t-PA Administration Increases Hippocampal Mature BDNF Levels. Plasmin- or NMDA-Dependent Mechanism?

PLoS ONE, 2014
Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) through TrkB activation is central for brain functioning. Since the demonstration that plasmin is able to process pro-BDNF to mature BDNF and that these two forms have opposite effects on neuronal survival and ...

Evaluation of coagulation activation after Rhinovirus infection in patients with asthma and healthy control subjects: an observational study [PDF]

, 2014
Background Asthma exacerbations are frequently triggered by rhinovirus infections. Both asthma and respiratory tract infection can activate haemostasis. Therefore we hypothesized that experimental rhinovirus-16 infection and asthmatic airway inflammation

The epidemiology and pathogenesis of uterine fibroids

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Uterine fibroids, or leiomyomas, are the most common benign tumors of the female reproductive tract, ultimately affecting a majority of women worldwide, primarily during their reproductive years. While their origin appears genetic, manifesting in monoclonal tumors, diverse features and mechanisms contribute to their growth and further ...

Role for Complement C5 in Eosinophilic Inflammation of Severe Asthma

Allergy, EarlyView.
Complement activation module, particularly C5, is positively associated with eosinophilic inflammation in severe asthma cohorts. Elevated C5 expression correlates with poor lung function improvement and persistent eosinophilic inflammation. Mouse model studies confirm that C5 exacerbates eosinophilic inflammation, highlighting its potential as a ...

Establishment and Validation of a C57BL/6J Mouse Model for Melasma

Cell Proliferation, EarlyView.
A melasma‐like mouse model was established in C57BL/6J mice using a combination of UVB irradiation, progesterone administration, and chronic psychological stress. This model replicates key clinical features and biomarker alterations observed in human melasma. Importantly, it is fundamentally distinct from UV‐induced post‐inflammatory hyperpigmentation (

Central nervous system involvement in cardiac amyloidosis: Redefining the heart‐brain axis

European Journal of Clinical Investigation, EarlyView.
Central nervous system involvement in cardiac amyloidosis. Amyloidosis is a systemic disease that can directly affect the central nervous system. Furthermore, the amyloid cardiomyopathy can indirectly affect the central nervous system by inducing systemic hypoperfusion and increasing the risk of acute ischaemic stroke.

Triosephosphate isomerase of Streptococcus pneumoniae is released extracellularly by autolysis and binds to host plasminogen to promote its activation

FEBS Open Bio, 2022
Recruitment of plasminogen is an important infection strategy of the human pathogen Streptococcus pneumoniae to invade host tissues. In Streptococcus aureus, triosephosphate isomerase (TPI) has been reported to bind plasminogen. In this study, the TPI of

Inhibition of endothelial cell movement by pericytes and smooth muscle cells: activation of a latent transforming growth factor-beta 1-like molecule by plasmin during co-culture

Journal of Cell Biology, 1989
When a confluent monolayer of bovine aortic endothelial (BAE) cells is wounded with a razor blade, endothelial cells (ECs) spontaneously move into the denuded area. If bovine pericytes or smooth muscle cells (SMCs) are plated into the denuded area at low
