Proteomic analysis of the excretory-secretory products from larval stages of Ascaris suum reveals high abundance of glycosyl hydrolases [PDF]
, 2013 Background: Ascaris lumbricoides and Ascaris suum are socioeconomically important and widespread parasites of humans and pigs, respectively. The excretory-secretory (ES) molecules produced and presented at the parasite-host interface during the different

Paths reunited: initiation of the classical and lectin pathways of complement activation [PDF]
, 2010 Understanding the structural organisation and mode of action of the initiating complex of the classical pathway of complement activation (C1) has been a central goal in complement biology since its isolation almost 50 years ago.

A deep insight into the sialome of male and female aedes aegypti mosquitoes [PDF]
, 2016 Only adult female mosquitoes feed on blood, while both genders take sugar meals. Accordingly, several compounds associated with blood feeding (i.e. vasodilators, anti-clotting, anti-platelets) are found only in female glands, while enzymes associated ...

Anticoagulant SERPINs: Endogenous Regulators of Hemostasis and Thrombosis
Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2022 Appropriate activation of coagulation requires a balance between procoagulant and anticoagulant proteins in blood. Loss in this balance leads to hemorrhage and thrombosis.
