Role of flow cytometry in multiple myeloma and the prognostic significance of CD87 (uPAR) expression
Objective: The plasminogen activator system consists of the serine protease urokinase plasminogen activator (uPA), two endogenous inhibitors of PAI-1 (plasminogen activator inhibitor-1) as well as the PAI-2 and uPA receptor (uPAR or CD87).

The Roles of Fibrinolytic Factors in Bone Destruction Caused by Inflammation
Chronic inflammatory diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis, spondyloarthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus, Crohn’s disease, periodontitis, and carcinoma metastasis frequently result in bone destruction.

Mini-plasminogen: a mechanism for leukocyte modulation of plasminogen activation by urokinase [PDF]
Urokinase activation of blood fibrinolysis involves polymorphonuclear leukocytes. To determine if a leukocyte proteinase can modulate plasminogen activation, plasminogen was digested with leukocyte elastase. A major product was a small, approximately 34,000 dalton fragment (mini-plasminogen), without lysine-binding function, but with fibrin-binding ...

An integrated chemical biology and degradomics approach reveals the proteolytic landscape of cathepsin B in mouse macrophages. Z‐RK‐AOMK perturbs the cysteine cathepsin network and reveals that cathepsin B predominantly exhibits dipeptidyl carboxypeptidase activity in cells.

Novel bi- and trifunctional inhibitors of tumor-associated proteolytic systems [PDF]
Serine proteases, cysteine proteases, and matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are involved in cancer cell invasion and metastasis. Recently, a recombinant bifunctional inhibitor (chCysuPA(19-31)) directed against cysteine proteases and the urokinasetype ...

The role of miR‐335‐5p in the redifferentiation of BRAF p.V600E thyroid cancers
The BRAF p.V600E mutation promotes thyroid cancer dedifferentiation and radioiodine resistance. Using a network approach, we identified miR‐335‐5p as a key regulator of BRAF‐mutated thyroid tumors. Restoring miR‐335‐5p increased thyroid‐specific gene expression and iodine uptake in cells and organoids.

Rhenium‐Based β‐Galactosidase Probe Allows Senescence Profiling by Mass Cytometry
Senescence‐associated β‐galactosidase (SA‐β‐Gal) activity is a widely accepted biomarker of cellular senescence, yet its integration with other senescence markers has been limited by available detection methods. Here, we introduce ReGal, a mass cytometry‐compatible SA‐β‐Gal activity probe that can be multiplexed with established markers of senescence ...

CHI3L1 on fibrinolytic system imbalance in chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyp
BackgroundChronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is an inflammatory disease affecting more than 10% of the global adult population. It is classified into Th1, Th2, and Th17 endotypes and eosinophilic and non-eosinophilic types.

Dormant cancer cells can hide in distant organs for years, evading treatment and the immune system. This review highlights how signals from the surrounding tissue and immune environment keep these cells inactive or trigger their reawakening. Understanding these mechanisms may help develop therapies to eliminate or control dormant cells and prevent ...

This meta‐analysis included 10 randomized controlled trials involving 1,116 patients with acute ischemic stroke. Compared with thrombolysis plus standard care, adjunctive acupuncture was associated with reduced neurological deficits (NIHSS: MD = −2.90), improved daily living function (Barthel Index: MD = 12.07), and higher clinical response rates (RR =
