Loss of 111Indium as indicator of platelet injury [PDF]
Abstract We previously demonstrated that platelets can be labeled with 111Inoxine with high labeling efficiency and that 111In is not liberated from labeled platelets during the platelet release reaction or prolonged in vitro storage. In view of these findings, we examined the potential usefulness of loss of 111In from labeled platelets ...

The Significance of Platelet Indices in the Evaluation of Thrombocytopenia. [PDF]
Thrombocytopenia, characterized by a low platelet count, poses a risk of abnormal bleeding. Traditional diagnostic methods focus on platelet count alone, but emerging evidence suggests that platelet indices like mean platelet volume (MPV) and platelet distribution width (PDW) could provide valuable insights.

Platelet Indices and the Severity of Dengue Infection in Children
Aim:Dengue is becoming endemic in India. The reported case-fatality rate in India is 3-5%. Thrombocytopenia is the most common finding. Platelet indices are gaining importance in the illness.

Microbiome‐blood–brain barrier interactions in aging — mechanisms and therapeutic potential
Aging reshapes the gut microbiome (↓SCFA‐producing commensals; ↑pro‐inflammatory outputs), shifting circulating metabolites (↓SCFAs; ↑LPS, ↑TMAO, ↑PAA) that act at the BBB to increase nonspecific transcytosis, alter transport, and promote astrocyte reactivity, heightening brain vulnerability.

Comparative study of platelet indices in cirrhosis, cirrhosis with sepsis and normal population [PDF]
Background: Platelet indices are the first hematologic indices to be affected in cirrhosis. Cirrhosis patients are particularly susceptible to bacterial infections.

Engineering peptides into antibodies—opportunities and strategies for therapeutic innovation
Peptides and antibodies occupy complementary therapeutic niches. Peptides recognize difficult targets in a compact format, while antibodies add specificity, long half‐life, and effector functions. This review examines strategies that merge both modalities—peptide grafting into loops, terminal and Fc fusions, and bioconjugation—highlighting how ...

Metastatic niche shaped by host factors influences disseminated cancer cell fate
Metastasis is shaped not only by cancer cells but also by the environments they encounter. This review explores how factors such as aging, diet, the microbiome, lifestyle, and environmental exposures remodel organ‐specific niches in the lung, liver, bone, and brain, influencing where metastatic cells survive, remain dormant, or grow, and ultimately ...

Targeting the EpCAM‐AXL axis to overcome drug resistance in lung cancer
Lung cancer cells often evade therapy by hijacking signaling pathways. We reveal that cleaved EpCAM (sEpCAM) stabilizes the oncogenic protein AXL, driving NF‐κB and STAT3‐mediated chemoresistance. This EpCAM‐AXL axis identifies a high‐risk patient subset with poor prognosis.

Tumour‐proximal deep serum proteomics identifies biomarkers associated with ovarian cancer
New biomarkers are needed for early ovarian cancer detection. Ovarian (tumour‐proximal) and peripheral vein serum from healthy women and patients with benign or malignant tumours underwent nanoparticle‐enriched deep proteomics. Ovarian serum yielded more protein identifications and revealed tumour‐reflective signatures.

Platelet indices- evaluation of their diagnostic role in pediatric thrombocytopenias (one year study) [PDF]
Background: Thrombocytopenias can be categorised into hypoproliferative (group I) & hyperdestructive types (group II) based on their etiology.
