Angioedema following venipuncture in a patient on angiotensin‐converting enzyme inhibitor and dipeptidyl peptidase‐IV inhibitor therapy: A case report

JEADV Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Acquired angioedema (AAE) is a rare, potentially life‐threatening condition, primarily induced by medications, with attacks typically triggered by major trauma. We report a rare case of AAE triggered locally by minor trauma—a forearm venipuncture—in a 77‐year‐old male taking ramipril and sitagliptin.

The Roles of Fibrinolytic Factors in Bone Destruction Caused by Inflammation

Cells
Chronic inflammatory diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis, spondyloarthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus, Crohn’s disease, periodontitis, and carcinoma metastasis frequently result in bone destruction.

Enhancing Hemocompatibility in ECMO Systems With a Fibrinolytic Interactive Coating: in Vitro Evaluation of Blood Clot Lysis Using a 3D Microfluidic Model

Macromolecular Bioscience, EarlyView.
The functionalization of antifouling polymer brushes with tissue plasminogen activator resulted in a coating system that can direct blood components to digest blood clots in medical devices. This study further demonstrates the ability of this coating system to enhance clot‐lysis in fluid dynamic conditions that are close to the ones in extracorporeal ...

Streptolysin O accelerates the conversion of plasminogen to plasmin

Nature Communications
Group A Streptococcus (GAS) is a human-specific bacterial pathogen that can exploit the plasminogen-plasmin fibrinolysis system to dismantle blood clots and facilitate its spread and survival within the human host.

Measuring the metastatic potential of cancer cells [PDF]

, 1993
Cancer cells must secrete proteolytic enzymes to invade adjacent tissues and migrate to a new metastatic site. Urokinase (uPA) is a key enzyme related to metastasis in cancers of the lung, colon, gastric, uterine, breast, brain, and malignant melanoma. A

Do children get dry socket?—The incidence and pattern of presentation of alveolar osteitis in children and adolescents following dental extractions

Oral Surgery, Volume 16, Issue 1, Page 31-40, February 2023., 2023
Abstract Background Alveolar osteitis (AO) is widely reported as the most common post‐operative complication following surgical and non‐surgical exodontia. Despite being one of the most studied complications in dentistry, there is no established consensus on its aetiology, alongside a relative paucity of studies looking exclusively into AO incidence in

Progress in Aptamer Research and Future Applications

ChemistryOpen, EarlyView.
This paper mainly describes the screening method of aptamer, the screening difficulties and improvement methods of small molecule aptamer, and the application and treatment of aptamer. It explores the latest progress and application of aptamers, and summarises them, thus indicating some problems that still exist in this field.

Elevated plasminogen activators are associated with hematoma progression in spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage

Brain Hemorrhages, 2020
Endogenous fibrinolysis might lead to hematoma progression in spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). We studied plasma biomarkers of fibrinolysis and hemostasis in twenty-two patients with ICH and nine healthy controls (HC) in a single-center study.
