Synapse elimination and learning rules co-regulated by MHC class I H2-Db [PDF]
The formation of precise connections between retina and lateral geniculate nucleus (LGN) involves the activity-dependent elimination of some synapses, with strengthening and retention of others. Here we show that the major histocompatibility complex (MHC)

Assessing the individual roles of FII, FV, and FX activity in the thrombin generation process
Thrombin generation (TG) is known as a physiological approach to assess the hemostatic function. Although it correlates well with thrombosis and bleeding, in the current setup it is not sensitive to the effects of fluctuations in single coagulation ...

Reference values for thrombin dynamics in platelet rich plasma
Thrombin generation (TG) is a better determinant of the overall function of the hemostatic system than routinely used clotting time-based assays and can be studied more in detail by thrombin dynamics analysis.

Patients With Multiple Myeloma Have a Disbalanced Whole Blood Thrombin Generation Profile
BackgroundMultiple myeloma (MM) is associated with a high prevalence of bleeding and an increased risk of thrombo-embolism. MM patients have reduced platelet- and red blood cell (RBC) numbers in blood, which may indicate that the paradoxical hemostasis ...

Semi-automated thrombin dynamics applying the ST Genesia thrombin generation assay
BackgroundThe haemostatic balance is an equilibrium of pro- and anticoagulant factors that work synergistically to prevent bleeding and thrombosis.

Combining human platelet proteomes and transcriptomes: possibilities and challenges
The anucleate human platelets contain a broad pattern of mRNAs and other RNA transcripts. The high quantitative similarity of mRNAs in megakaryocytes and platelets from different sources points to a common origin, and suggests a random redistribution of ...

cAMP-Inhibits Cytoplasmic Phospholipase A(2) and Protects Neurons against Amyloid-beta-Induced Synapse Damage [PDF]
A key event in Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the production of amyloid-β (Aβ) peptides and the loss of synapses. In cultured neurons Aβ triggered synapse damage as measured by the loss of synaptic proteins. α-synuclein (αSN), aggregates of which accumulate

Increased BMI and Blood Lipids Are Associated With a Hypercoagulable State in the Moli-sani Cohort
The coagulation system can be assessed by the thrombin generation (TG) assay, and increased TG peak height, endogenous thrombin potential (ETP), and velocity index are associated with an increased risk of thrombosis. Obesity had been reported to increase

Synaptic basis of a sub-second representation of time in a neural circuit model
Neural circuit dynamics are thought to drive temporally precise actions. Here, the authors used a theoretical approach to show that synapses endowed with diverse short-term plasticity can act as tunable timers sufficient to generate rich neural dynamics.
