  2. 1. Structural pathology and functional analysis of vitamin K-dependent protein S

    Author : Tusar K Giri; Malmö Klinisk kemi; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; C4b-binding protein; Protein S; blood coagulation; thrombosis; natural mutations; in vitro characterization.; Immunology; transplantation; serologi; Immunologi; serology;

    Abstract : Protein S deficiency is an autosomal dominant trait affecting around 10% of families thrombophilic families. The high affinity interaction of approximately 60% of protein S with C4b -binding protein (C4BP) has raised a complicated situation for the diagnosis of deficiency states. READ MORE

  4. 2. Blood flow and cell transport in arteries and medical assist devices

    Author : Niclas Berg; Lisa Prahl Wittberg; Laszlo Fuchs; Mihai Mihaescu; Alessandro Veneziani; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Hemodynamics; CFD; Artherosclerosis; Thrombosis; Platelet activation; Hemorheology; Platelet margination; Technology and Health; Teknik och hälsa;

    Abstract : The cardiovascular system is responsible for transport of nutrients, oxygen, as well as the cells and molecules making up the immune system. Through the hemostatic system, the body maintains the integrity of the blood vessels, and prevents bleeding. READ MORE

  5. 3. Resistance to activated protein C a novel risk factor for venous thrombosis

    Author : Peter Svensson; Malmö Klinisk koagulationsmedicin; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; APC resistance; mutation; venous thrombosis; blood coagulation; Protein C; factor V; Haematology; extracellular fluids; Hematologi; extracellulära vätskor;

    Abstract : Activated protein C resistance (APC resistance) is the most common hereditary condition associated with venous thrombosis. The syndrome known as APC resistance is perfectly linked to a mutation in the gene coding coagulation FV (FV:Q506) mutation changing Arg 506 to Gln in the APC cleavage site. READ MORE

  6. 4. Inflammation and immunothrombosis in cerebral cavernous malformation : Novel molecular targets for the treatment of an incurable disease

    Author : Maria Ascención Globisch; Peetra Magnusson; Elisabetta Dejana; Marie Jeansson; Anna Randi; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : Cavernoma; Inflammation; Coagulation; Blood-brain-barrier; Blood; Hypoxia; Propranolol; Biologi med inriktning mot molekylär immunologi; Biology with specialization in Molecular Immunology;

    Abstract : Cerebral cavernous malformation (CCM) is a vascular disease that causes mulberry-like lesions (cavernomas) in the central nervous system (CNS). Cavernomas are fragile, leaky and prone to rupture which may cause symptoms such as epileptic seizures, focal neurological deficits and hemorrhagic strokes. CCM lesions can appear sporadically in 0.

  7. 5. Factor V Leiden mutation and pregnancy. Haemostasis during pregnancy in non-carriers and carriers of factor V Leiden mutation, with special emphasis on placenta-mediated and venous thromboembolic complications and on blood coagulation and fibrinolysis markers for prediction of complications

    Author : Ulla Kjellberg; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : Activated protein C; D-dimer; Factor V Leiden; fibrinolysis; haemostasis; obstetric complications; platelet function; pregnancy; prothrombin fragment 1 2; soluble fibrin; Sonoclot; thrombosis;

    Abstract : Factor V Leiden (FVL) mutation elevates the risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE) in general. During pregnancy, the haemostatic balance is changed in the direction of hypercoagulability, resulting in an increased incidence of VTE. 42 women were followed longitudinally during pregnancy and the puerperium.
