Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Chronic micro‐inflammation in patients with end‐stage renal disease (ESRD) is a significant driver of cardiovascular complications and diminished quality of life. While standard hemodialysis (SHD) effectively manages small‐molecule clearance, its ability to remove medium‐to‐large uremic toxins—the primary catalysts of systemic ...

Microbiome‐blood–brain barrier interactions in aging — mechanisms and therapeutic potential
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Aging reshapes the gut microbiome (↓SCFA‐producing commensals; ↑pro‐inflammatory outputs), shifting circulating metabolites (↓SCFAs; ↑LPS, ↑TMAO, ↑PAA) that act at the BBB to increase nonspecific transcytosis, alter transport, and promote astrocyte reactivity, heightening brain vulnerability.

The role of signal transducer and activator of transcription-3 (STAT-3) in ischaemic and pharmacological preconditioning [PDF]
, 2006 Includes bibliographical references (leaves 150-177).Ischemic preconditioning is a protective mechanism whereby repetitive transient ischaemia confer protection against the subsequent prolonged lethal ischaemia that is observed during myocardial ...

Biomedicine & pharmacotherapy = Biomedecine & pharmacotherapie, 2022 Cells communication in response to extracellular or biophysical stimulus relies on elaborated systems of signal transduction. In the course of most signal pathway, the cascades involve signal protein complexes, which are often assembled by adaptor ...

Tumor Necrosis Factor-α and Its Receptors 1 and 2 [PDF]
Circulation, 2009 In healthy hearts, tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) concentration is low, and TNF-α is mainly located in endothelium and resident mast cells.1 TNF-α receptors (TNFRs) 1 (TNFR1) and 2 (TNFR2) are expressed on most cardiac cells, including cardiomyocytes.2 During myocardial ischemia, preformed TNF-α is released within minutes from resident mast cells and ...

Engineering peptides into antibodies—opportunities and strategies for therapeutic innovation
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Peptides and antibodies occupy complementary therapeutic niches. Peptides recognize difficult targets in a compact format, while antibodies add specificity, long half‐life, and effector functions. This review examines strategies that merge both modalities—peptide grafting into loops, terminal and Fc fusions, and bioconjugation—highlighting how ...

The hepatitis B virus X protein activates nuclear factor of activated T cells (NF-AT) by a cyclosporin A-sensitive pathway. [PDF]
, 1998 The X gene product of the human hepatitis B virus (HBx) is a transcriptional activator of various viral and cellular genes. We recently have determined that the production of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) by HBV-infected hepatocytes is ...
