New Insights into Modulation of Thrombin Formation
Thrombin is a pleiotropic enzyme that regulates hemostasis and nonhemostatic functions, including an array of actions within and on the vasculature. Physiologically, thrombin generation serves mainly to protect against thrombosis, but also to maintain ...

The Ca2+-mobilizing potency of alpha-thrombin and thrombin-receptor-activating peptide on human platelets -- concentration and time effects of thrombin-induced Ca2+ signaling. [PDF]
Department of Biochemistry, Maastricht University, The Netherlands. jwm.heemskerk@bioch.unimaas.nl In single platelets and in suspensions of platelets, alpha-thrombin evokes dose-dependent, transient increases in cytosolic Ca2+ concentration, [Ca2+]i ...

Neuroinflammation alters blood–brain barrier integrity and contributes to neurological disorders, yet existing models lack human immune complexity. This study presents a 3D, immune‐responsive platform that reconstructs key neurovascular components and enables real‐time monitoring.

The clinical utility of thrombin generation
PhDThe Calibrated Automated Thrombogram (CAT) thrombin generation assay is a technique that allows the characterisation of an individual’s capacity to produce thrombin in response to a procoagulant stimulus. As such it is a global screening test for both

Antiangiogenic property of human thrombin
Using protein chromatography, we purified and identified human prothrombin from human plasma as antiangiogenic. Prothrombin significantly inhibited endothelial cell tube formation in vitro at 10 microg/ml.

Renal IGFBP6 Interacts With THBS1 to Drive Renal Cellular Senescence and Fibrosis
ABSTRACT Epithelial dedifferentiation and myofibroblast activation are critical drivers of chronic kidney disease (CKD) progression. Elevated levels of IGFBP6 have been linked to decreased renal function in CKD patients, but its precise role and underlying mechanisms remain unclear.

A simple, rapid, and portable gold‐coated filter tip‐based assay (GFTA) is developed for bacterial detection. The GFTA leverages cleavable functional nucleic acid probes as molecular recognition elements to target RNase H2, a highly conserved bacterial endoribonuclease, enabling sensitive and specific colorimetric detection of bacterial pathogens ...

Platelet Apoptosis Can Be Triggered Bypassing the Death Receptors
In nucleated cells, the extrinsic pathway of the programmed cell death (apoptosis) is triggered by interaction of death ligands of the tumor necrosis factor superfamily with the death receptors on external cell surface membrane.

G protein-coupled receptor signaling is mediated by three main mechanisms of action; these are the classical pathway, B-arrestin scaffold signaling, and the transactivation of protein-tyrosine kinase receptors such as those for EGF and PDGF. Recently, it

SummaryPrevious studies evaluating requirements for occupancy of thrombin receptors in normal platelet secretion and aggregation, using the thrombin antagonists hirudin and PPACK (D-Phe-Pro-Arg-chloromethylke-tone), have suggested that at low thrombin ...
