In-depth proteomics identifies a role for autophagy in controlling reactive oxygen species mediated endothelial permeability [PDF]
Endothelial cells (ECs) form the inner layer of blood vessels and physically separate the blood from the surrounding tissue. To support tissues with nutrients and oxygen, the endothelial monolayer is semipermeable.

Antiphospholipid Syndrome: An Antibody‐Mediated Disease With Emerging Therapeutic Opportunities
Antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) is an autoimmune thromboinflammatory disease characterized by vascular thrombosis, pregnancy morbidity, and other manifestations driven by antiphospholipid autoantibodies. In this review, we present a clinical case that illustrates some diagnostic and therapeutic challenges in managing severe, relapsing APS ...

Haemophilia A and von Willebrand’s disease [PDF]
Summary. Deficient or defective coagulation factor VIII (FVIII) and von Willebrand factor (VWF) can cause bleeding through congenital deficiency or acquired inhibitory antibodies. Recent studies on type 1 von Willebrand’s disease (VWD), the most common form of the disease, have begun to explain its pathogenesis.

ABSTRACT Background The quality of saphenous vein (SV) grafts can vary depending on the site from which they are harvested. However, few studies have compared SV grafts harvested from the thigh with those harvested from the calf to explore which is more appropriate for use in coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). In this study, we evaluated the graft

von Willebrand Disease: The diagnosis and management of this bleeding disorder
von Willebrand disease (vWD) is one of the most common bleeding disorders, first described by Erik von Willebrand in the Aland Islands. It occurs as a result of decreased or abnormal von Willebrand factor (vWF), a factor that is needed in the process of ...

Increased plasma von Willebrand factor antigen levels but normal von Willebrand factor cleaving protease (ADAMTS13) activity in preeclampsia. [PDF]
The activity of ADAMTS13, the von Willebrand factor (VWF) cleaving protease is low in several conditions, including HELLP (haemolysis, elevated liver enzymes, and low platelet count) syndrome.

Diagnostic Value of Measuring Platelet Von Willebrand Factor in Von Willebrand Disease. [PDF]
Von Willebrand disease (VWD) may be caused by an impaired von Willebrand factor (VWF) synthesis, its increased clearance or abnormal function, or combinations of these factors.

Prophylaxis in von Willebrand Disease: Coming of Age? [PDF]
Although in most cases von Willebrand disease (VWD) is a mild disorder, a subgroup of patients experience frequent bleeding. In contrast to severe hemophilia in which prophylaxis is the accepted standard of care, this is less frequently used in VWD. Most
