A Bruchs membrane (BrM) mimic based on aged decellularized BrM was developed and differentially expressed proteins in aged dECM‐BrM that may provide specific biochemical cues fundamental to model AMD in vitro were identified. RPE culture on aged dECM‐BrM developed certain AMD‐like features including reduced TEER and expression of drusen components ...

Alpha‐1 antitrypsin deficiency is a genetic disease that affects the lungs and the liver. The role of the heterozygous genetic defect in the development of liver cancer in patients with cirrhosis is unclear. Our study found that carrying the Pi*MZ genotype increases the risk of developing liver cancer.

The Multifaceted Role of Keratinocytes in Hidradenitis Suppurativa Pathogenesis
ABSTRACT Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is a chronic autoinflammatory skin disorder of the pilosebaceous unit, with multiple factors contributing to its onset, activity and progression. Alongside a predisposing genetic background, hormonal and microbiome alterations, dysregulation of innate and adaptive immune response, as well as environmental ...

ABSTRACT Background Liver‐related sarcopenia is a devastating systemic complication of chronic liver disease (CLD) driven by mechanisms extending beyond nutritional deficiency. However, the role of liver‐derived humoral factors remains unclear. We utilised a unique cohort of human skeletal muscle biopsies to test the hypothesis that serum conjugated ...

As the key mechanotransducer in IVDD, Piezo1 orchestrates region‐specific degeneration across NP (senescence/ECM dysregulation), AF (apoptosis), and CEP (inflammation). This review integrates mechanistic pathways and assesses multimodal therapeutic targeting (pharmacologic/genetic/nutritional) to restore disc homeostasis.

Serum SERPINA3 levels were higher in BOS compared to non‐BOS patients. OPG and SERPINA3 positive cells colocalized with tryptase positive mast cells in airways from BOS lung tissue. OPG and SERPINA3 staining positively correlated in partially and completely obstructed airways.

The plasmin-antiplasmin system: structural and functional aspects [PDF]
The plasmin-antiplasmin system plays a key role in blood coagulation and fibrinolysis. Plasmin and α2-antiplasmin are primarily responsible for a controlled and regulated dissolution of the fibrin polymers into soluble fragments. However, besides plasmin(

Analysis of AlphaFold and molecular dynamics structure predictions of mutations in serpins.
Serine protease inhibitors (serpins) include thousands of structurally conserved proteins playing key roles in many organisms. Mutations affecting serpins may disturb their conformation, leading to inactive forms.
