Regulation of elastase and plasminogen activator secretion in resident and inflammatory macrophages by receptors for the Fc domain of immunoglobulin G. [PDF]
We have determined that the interaction of IgG-coated erythrocytes (EIgG) and complement-coated erythrocytes (EIgMC) with macrophage Fc and complement receptors, respectively, modulates the secretion of the neutral proteinases, elastase, and plasminogen ...

Characterization of an Inhibitor of Neuronal Plasminogen Activator Released by Heart Cells [PDF]
A basic understanding of growth cone dynamics and developmental events involving growth cones requires an understanding of the function and regulation of molecules associated with and released by growth cones. Rat sympathetic neurons in culture release a

Hydrogel‐Mediated Preservation of Live Tumor Explants for Drug Development in Peritoneal Metastases
This study presents a hyaluronan‐based hydrogel platform preserving the native tumor microenvironment (morphology, tissue composition, histology) of patient‐derived explants from peritoneal metastases, enabling clinically relevant drug screening. Hydrogel properties such as stiffness and degradation are crucial for longer‐term histoculture.

Hemostatic markers in surgery: a different fibrinolytic activity may be of pathophysiological significance in orthopedic versus abdominal surgery [PDF]
Without prophylaxis, patients subjected to major abdominal surgery have a risk of deep vein thrombosis of approximately 30%, while the rate varies between 40% and 60% in orthopedic surgery.

Advances and Strategies in Enhancing mRNA Cancer Vaccines
Messenger RNA (mRNA) vaccines offer a powerful approach for cancer immunotherapy, but their clinical impact remains limited by delivery challenges and suboptimal immune activation. This review discusses key biological barriers and design strategies—including structural optimization, immunomodulation, organ targeting delivery, and advanced nanocarriers ...

Coagulation and anticoagulation in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis [PDF]
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is an incurable, progressive interstitial lung disease with a prognosis that is worse than that of many cancers. Epidemiological studies have demonstrated a link between IPF and thrombotic vascular events.

Genetic Engineering Methods in Primary T Cells
Primary T cells can be engineered to confer them with novel therapeutic functions, allowing them to treat a variety of conditions. Genetic engineering can be either stable or transient, aiming to either express or inhibit a target gene. This review discusses the various genetic engineering tools available as well as their characteristics and ...

This study uncovers STAT6‐driven pulmonary fibrosis (PF) via suppression of PRKN‐mediated airway epithelial mitophagy, triggering mitochondrial dysfunction and ferroptosis. Rifabutin is identified as a potent STAT6 inhibitor that effectively reverses fibrotic progression. These findings reveal the STAT6‐PRKN axis as a pathogenic regulator and provide a
