Therapeutic plasma exchange therapy in burns

Journal of Cutaneous and Aesthetic Surgery, 2023
Abstract Severe burn injury affects the body in many devastating ways, the most severe being systemic inflammatory response syndrome. This results in a myriad of effects like increasing capillary permeability, thereby fluid loss. It also causes a surge in inflammatory mediators like interleukin (IL)-6, which further increases the capillary ...

Spatiotemporal and quantitative analyses of phosphoinositides – fluorescent probe—and mass spectrometry‐based approaches

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Fluorescent probes allow dynamic visualization of phosphoinositides in living cells (left), whereas mass spectrometry provides high‐sensitivity, isomer‐resolved quantitation (right). Their synergistic use captures complementary aspects of lipid signaling. This review illustrates how these approaches reveal the spatiotemporal regulation and quantitative

Therapeutic Plasma Exchange in Refractory Hyperthyroidism [PDF]

European Thyroid Journal, 2020
Hyperthyroid patients who are unresponsive to medical treatment remain a challenging clinical problem.The goal of our study was to evaluate the use of therapeutic plasma exchange (TPE) in hyperthyroid patients and their outcome after TPE.We retrospectively reviewed 22 patients who underwent TPE for refractory thyrotoxicosis in our institution: 13 with ...

Plasma exchange in acute and chronic hyperviscosity syndrome: a rheological approach and guidelines study [PDF]

, 2007
Therapeutic plasma exchange is an extra-corporeal technique able to remove from blood macromolecules and/or replace deficient plasma factors. It is the treatment of choice in hyperviscosity syndrome, due to the presence of quantitatively or qualitatively

Hematopoietic (stem) cells—The elixir of life?

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The aging of HSCs (hematopoietic stem cells) and the blood system leads to the decline of other organs. Rejuvenating aged HSCs improves the function of the blood system, slowing the aging of the heart, kidney, brain, and liver, and the occurrence of age‐related diseases.

Molecular bases of circadian magnesium rhythms across eukaryotes

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Circadian rhythms in intracellular [Mg2+] exist across eukaryotic kingdoms. Central roles for Mg2+ in metabolism suggest that Mg2+ rhythms could regulate daily cellular energy and metabolism. In this Perspective paper, we propose that ancestral prokaryotic transport proteins could be responsible for mediating Mg2+ rhythms and posit a feedback model ...
