SPROUTS_DB: An Implemented Database of Contaminants for Extracellular Vesicle Proteomics Studies
ABSTRACT Current proteomics techniques allow rapid identification and quantification of proteins within any given biological source. However, LC–MS/MS proteomics is vulnerable to laboratory and sample‐associated contaminants. Therefore, accurate identification and annotation of such contaminants is crucial for development of reliable databases ...

Transthyretin is a promising prognostic marker of non-developing pregnancy in hypothyroidism
Non-developing pregnancy is one of the most important problems in the practice of an obstetrician-gynecologist. Transthyretin is a transplacental transport protein of T3, T4 and is expressed in cyto- and syncytiotrophoblast cells.

Small molecule amyloid disrupters demonstrate therapeutic efficacy for transthyretin amyloidosis
The escalating global trend of an aging population has brought attention to the rising prevalence of late-onset amyloid disorders. Among them, transthyretin amyloidosis (ATTR) presents a growing medical challenge, particularly in the elderly.

Boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) requires key non‐negotiable technical criteria: megadose administration, precise tumor‐specific targeting, favorable biocompatibility, and sustained tumor retention. Overcoming these interconnected challenges fundamentally depends on biomolecular carriers, which are critical for translating the therapeutic potential

Helical reconstruction of amyloids in cryoSPARC
We present practical guidelines for helical reconstruction of amyloid filaments in cryoSPARC, benchmarked against publicly available datasets. Our analysis defines current capabilities and limitations, and outlines optimization strategies to enable high‐throughput structural studies and therapeutic discovery.Amyloid‐mediated proteotoxicity underlies ...

Specific therapeutic options for transthyretin amyloidosis
The epidemiology of systemic amyloidosis has recently undergone a spectacular transformation. While light-chain amyloidosis remains a rare disease with a stable incidence, chronic inflammatory disease associated amyloidosis (AA) is diagnosed less ...
