Air temperature and inflammatory and coagulation responses in men with coronary or pulmonary disease during the winter season [PDF]

, 2010
Background and Objective Air temperature changes are associated with increased cardiovascular and respiratory risk, but the roles of inflammatory and coagulation markers are not well understood.

VWF and complement [PDF]

Blood, 2015
In this issue of Blood , Feng and coworkers present data suggesting a role for von Willebrand factor (VWF) in the proteolytic inactivation of complement C3b by factor I (CFI).[1][1] Whereas smaller VWF multimers, especially dimers, tetramers, and hexamers, enhance C3b inactivation by CFI, large ...

Sialylation on O-linked glycans protects von Willebrand factor from macrophage galactose lectin-mediated clearance

Haematologica, 2021
Terminal sialylation determines the plasma half-life of von Willebrand factor (VWF). A role for macrophage galactose lectin (MGL) in regulating hyposialylated VWF clearance has recently been proposed.

Wind field and sex constrain the flight speeds of central-place foraging albatrosses [PDF]

, 2009
By extracting energy from the highly dynamic wind and wave fields that typify pelagic habitats, albatrosses are able to proceed almost exclusively by gliding flight.

Isolation of equine endothelial cells and life cell angiogenesis assay [PDF]

, 2014
Arterial or venous thromboses are frequent clinical complications with the risk of fatal progression. Recent studies suggest the disruption of angiogenesis in the course of thrombus resolution as the underlying pathomechanism.

Plasma Peptidylarginine Deiminase IV Promotes VWF-Platelet String Formation and Accelerates Thrombosis after Vessel Injury.

Circulation Research, 2019
RATIONALE Peptidylarginine deiminase type IV (PAD4), an enzyme essential for NET formation (NETosis), is released together with neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) into the extracellular milieu.

Utility of microfluidic devices to study the platelet–endothelium interface

Platelets, 2017
The integration of biomaterials and understanding of vascular biology has led to the development of perfusable endothelialized flow models, which have been used as valuable tools to study the platelet–endothelium interface under shear.

Diagnostic Value of Measuring Platelet Von Willebrand Factor in Von Willebrand Disease. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2016
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.
