Predicting Device‐Induced Platelet Damage in Assisted Circulation Using a New Biophysical Model and Experimental Validation

open access: yesArtificial Organs, EarlyView.
Quantitative assessment of a newly proposed CFD‐based biophysical model for predicting device‐induced platelet damage by circulatory assist devices was performed. The new model preserved the relative trends observed previously with the power‐law formulation across a range of clinically relevant pump operating conditions, while demonstrating improved ...

Solubilization of lipids and membrane proteins into nanodiscs: Mode of action and applications of SMA copolymers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Cell membranes separate the inside and outside of cells. Membrane proteins in the cell membrane control the traffic of molecules across the membrane and are therefore targets for a lot of drugs: about 50 % of all approved drugs target a membrane protein!

Thrombin facilitates primary platelet adhesion onto vascular surfaces in the absence of plasma adhesive proteins: studies under flow conditions

open access: yesHaematologica, 2000
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: The effect of local and circulating thrombin on platelet adhesion onto vascular surfaces was explored in the absence of plasma adhesive proteins using flow conditions.

Review Article: Fibrosis‐4 Index in Steatotic Liver Disease—Past, Present and Future

open access: yesAlimentary Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
FIB‐4 remains an inexpensive, scalable first‐line triage tool for excluding advanced fibrosis and identifying patients who need second‐line assessment, but it should not be used as a stand‐alone diagnostic or treatment‐selection test. Sequential testing and longitudinal FIB‐4 trajectories may improve risk stratification and prognosis.

From patient to tumor organoid: Culture protocol choice controls glioblastoma tumor architecture and identity

open access: yesBrain Pathology, EarlyView.
How glioblastoma organoids are made shapes what they become. Fragment‐based cultures preserve extracellular matrix networks, cellular diversity, and primary tumor identity, whereas dissociation‐based cultures shift toward growth‐adapted states and simplified microenvironments. Abstract Patient‐derived tumor organoids are widely used in cancer research,

The nitty‐gritty of vascular permeability in cancer: targeting blood endothelium to control metastases

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Blood vascular permeability is a hallmark of cancer and acts as an active driver of metastatic dissemination. Metastasis accounts for the vast majority of cancer deaths, yet most work has focussed on tumour‐intrinsic traits and angiogenesis, while the specific contribution of endothelial barrier regulation to intravasation and extravasation remains ...

CD93—An emerging vascular target in cancer therapy

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract CD93 is a single‐pass transmembrane glycoprotein that belongs to the C‐type lectin domain group XIV family of proteins. Although it is known to be expressed in other cell types, namely, in some subsets of immune cells, CD93 is primarily expressed on endothelial cells, where it acts as a crucial regulator of angiogenesis.

An investigation into the effects of dystrophin on the lateral mobility of muscle membrane components. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
Dystrophin is the product of the Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy gene locus, whose absence results in progressive skeletal muscle breakdown. Despite considerable work on the localisation of dystrophin and its associated complex, its role in muscle function ...

Asociación de la púrpura trombocitopénica inmunológica y el síndrome de Guillain-Barré. A propósito de un caso: with regard to a case Association of immunologic thrombocytopenia and the Guillain-Barré syndrome

open access: yesRevista Cubana de Hematología, Inmunología y Hemoterapia, 2010
La púrpura trombocitopénica inmunológica es una enfermedad autoinmune, benigna, de aparición frecuente, caracterizada por la presencia de anticuerpos dirigidos contra las glicoproteínas de la membrana plaquetaria que producen una disminución del recuento
