GPR142, a tryptophan‐sensing receptor, stimulates gastrointestinal hormones like ghrelin and is linked to inflammation regulation. Proinflammatory cytokines suppress ghrelin production, while tryptophan levels decrease via IDO1 activation. Our findings reveal that proinflammatory cytokines directly regulate GPR142 expression in ghrelin‐producing cells,

Impaired platelet function in Hermansky-Pudlak syndrome associated with novel mutations in HPS3, HPS6 and HPS8 genes [PDF]
We report three unrelated cases of Hermansky-Pudlak (HP) characterized by novel mutations in HPS3 (compound heterozygosity for c.1457G>A and c.1813G>T), HPS6 (homozygous c.210_211insGGGCC), and HPS8 (homozygous c.299dupC in BLOC1S3) genes. No spontaneous

Static platelet adhesion, flow cytometry and serum TXB2 levels for monitoring platelet inhibiting treatment with ASA and clopidogrel in coronary artery disease: a randomised cross-over study [PDF]
Background Despite the use of anti-platelet agents such as acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) and clopidogrel in coronary heart disease, some patients continue to suffer from atherothrombosis.

The tumor microenvironment is a dynamic, multifaceted complex system of interdependent cellular, biochemical, and biophysical components. Three‐dimensional in vitro models of the tumor microenvironment enable a better understanding of these interactions and their impact on cancer progression and therapeutic resistance.

Skin calcium deposits in primary familial brain calcification: A novel potential biomarker
Abstract Objective Primary Familial Brain Calcification (PFBC) is a rare neurodegenerative disorder characterized by small vessel calcifications in the basal ganglia. PFBC is caused by pathogenic variants in different genes and its physiopathology is still largely unknown. Skin vascular calcifications have been detected in single PFBC cases, suggesting

Density-Functional Theory Study of Hydrogen Induced Platelets (HIPs) in Silicon [PDF]
In this contribution we present the results of Density-Functional Theory (DFT) calculations of platelets as modelled by infinite planar arrangements of hydrogen atoms and vacancies in (100) planes of silicon. From the observation of the relaxed platelet structures and the comparison of their energy with the one of hydrogen molecules dissolved in ...

Investigations into effects of 12-lipoxygenase and NADPH oxidase on platelet activity, and influences of dietary dark chocolate [PDF]
PhDPlatelets play a pivotal role in both normal hemostasis and pathological bleeding and importantly also contribute to the development of atherothrombosis.

High platelet reactivity in patients with acute coronary syndromes undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention: Randomised controlled trial comparing prasugrel and clopidogrel [PDF]
Background: Prasugrel is more effective than clopidogrel in reducing platelet aggregation in acute coronary syndromes. Data available on prasugrel reloading in clopidogrel treated patients with high residual platelet reactivity (HRPR) i.e.

ALS plasma biomarkers reveal neurofilament and pTau correlate with disease onset and progression
Abstract Objective We performed a pilot screen to assess the utility of the NULISA™ (Nucleic‐acid‐Linked Immuno‐Sandwich Assay) platform in the identification of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) biomarkers. Methods Plasma from 86 individuals (48 ALS, 18 asymptomatic C9orf72 repeat expansion carriers (AsymC9), and 20 healthy controls) was analyzed ...
