Accurate Delivery of Mesenchymal Stem Cell Spheroids With Platelet‐Rich Fibrin Shield: Enhancing Survival and Repair Functions of Sp‐MSCs in Diabetic Wound Healing

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Autologous plasma‐derived platelet‐rich fibrin (PRF) is prepared as a protective shield for mesenchymal stem cell spheroids (Sp‐MSCs). PRF forms a fibrin shield to protect Sp‐MSCs from the oxidative stress environment. The nutrients in PRF, particularly the α‐granules, can enhance the repair function of Sp‐MSCs.

Inhibition of thrombin, an unexplored function of retinoic acid

Biochemistry and Biophysics Reports, 2019
Retinoic acid, a derivative of vitamin A, is known to possess in vivo anti-inflammatory, anti-platelet and fibrinolytic activities. We have investigated the in vitro thrombin and platelet aggregation inhibitory activities of vitamin A (retinol) and its ...

New Approaches to the Role of Thrombin in Acute Coronary Syndromes: Quo Vadis Bivalirudin, a Direct Thrombin Inhibitor?

Molecules, 2016
The pathophysiology of acute coronary syndrome (ACS) involves platelet activation and thrombus formation after the rupture of atherosclerotic plaques. Thrombin is generated at the blood-plaque interface in association with cellular membranes on cells and

Tumor Microenvironment Triggered In Situ Coagulation of Supramolecularly Engineered Platelets for Precise Tumor Embolization

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Occlusion of tumor blood vessels represents a promising yet challenging approach in cancer treatment. Herein, supramolecularly engineered platelets conjugated with morphology‐transformable nanoparticles is developed for precise tumor embolization. The engineered platelets actively accumulate at tumor sites following induced blood vessel injury.

Design of Potent and Controllable Anticoagulants Using DNA Aptamers and Nanostructures

Molecules, 2016
The regulation of thrombin activity offers an opportunity to regulate blood clotting because of the central role played by this molecule in the coagulation cascade. Thrombin-binding DNA aptamers have been used to inhibit thrombin activity.

Evidence supporting idarucizumab for the reversal of dabigatran. [PDF]

, 2016
Idarucizumab is a monoclonal antibody fragment specifically targeted to dabigatran. It has demonstrated prompt and durable reversal of the anticoagulant effects of dabigatran in animal studies and phase 1 studies of young, elderly, and renally impaired ...

Red Blood Cell‐Induced Bacterial Margination Improves Microbial Hemoadsorption on Engineered Cell‐Depleted Thrombi, Restoring Severe Bacteremia in Rats

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A highly efficient extracorporeal device for treating bacteremia is developed by integrating microfluidic bacterial margination and engineered cell‐depleted thrombi strategically constructed in the device. The rodent models, severely infected with antibiotic‐resistant bacteria, recover from bacteremia after two subsequent extracorporeal blood ...

Thrombin, a mediator of cerebrovascular inflammation in AD and hypoxia

Frontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2013
Considerable evidence implicates hypoxia and vascular inflammation in Alzheimer's disease (AD). Thrombin, a multifunctional inflammatory mediator, is demonstrable in the brains of AD patients both in the vessel walls and senile plaques. Hypoxia-inducible

Elucidation of the disulfide folding pathway of hirudin by a topology-based approach [PDF]

arXiv, 2003
A theoretical model for the folding of proteins containing disulfide bonds is introduced. The model exploits the knowledge of the native state to favour the progressive establishment of native interactions. At variance with traditional approaches based on native topology, not all native bonds are treated in the same way; in particular, a suitable ...

The tyrosine phosphatase CD148 is an essential positive regulator of platelet activation and thrombosis [PDF]

, 2009
Platelets play a fundamental role in hemostasis and thrombosis. They are also involved in pathologic conditions resulting from blocked blood vessels, including myocardial infarction and ischemic stroke.
