Infant with protein C deficiency and stroke in the setting of iron deficiency anemia
We report an 18‐month‐old infant with ischemic stroke, neurocognitive impairment, and psychomotor retardation in the setting of severe iron deficiency anemia. Although an uncommon outcome in anemic children, stroke is important to consider as a cause for

C-reactive protein deficiency ameliorates experimental abdominal aortic aneurysms
BackgroundC-reactive protein (CRP) levels are elevated in patients with abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA). However, it has not been investigated whether CRP contributes to AAA pathogenesis.MethodsCRP deficient and wild type (WT) male mice were subjected ...

Inducible arginase 1 deficiency in mice leads to hyperargininemia and altered amino acid metabolism [PDF]
Arginase deficiency is a rare autosomal recessive disorder resulting from a loss of the liver arginase isoform, arginase 1 (ARG1), which is the final step in the urea cycle for detoxifying ammonia. ARG1 deficiency leads to hyperargininemia, characterized

HIV-Associated Thromboembolic Phenomenon due to Protein C Deficiency
HIV-infected individuals are at a high risk of developing arterial and venous thromboembolism. Opportunistic infections, protease inhibitors, low CD4 count, antiphospholipid antibodies, protein S, and protein C deficiencies are some important risk ...

Altered expression of Alzheimer's disease-related proteins in male hypogonadal mice [PDF]
Age-related depletion of estrogens and androgens is associated with an increase in Alzheimer's disease (AD) brain pathology and diminished cognitive function. Here we investigated AD-associated molecular and cellular changes in brains of aged hypogonadal

Cop1 constitutively regulates c-Jun protein stability and functions as a tumor suppressor in mice [PDF]
Biochemical studies have suggested conflicting roles for the E3 ubiquitin ligase constitutive photomorphogenesis protein 1 (Cop 1; also known as Rfwd2) in tumorigenesis, providing evidence for both the oncoprotein c-Jun and the tumor suppressor p53 as ...

A Study of Prothrombotic Factors in Human Immunodeficiency Virus-Infected Patients
Introduction: Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection has been described as a hypercoagulable state. Some studies suggest that thrombotic events may be 2–10 times more prevalent in this group than in the general population.
