  2. 1. Dual roles for hepatic lectin receptors in the clearance of chilled platelets

    Author : Viktoria Rumjantseva; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : platelet storage; Asialoglycoprotein receptor; GPIbα; αMβ2; transfusion; clearance;

    Abstract : Platelets for transfusion are stored at room temperature because refrigerated platelets are cleared rapidly from circulation. Room temperature storage causes major inconveniences for blood banks and medical risks for recipients. READ MORE

  4. 2. The role of microglia in Alzheimer's disease - Investigating mechansims regulating amyloid-β clearance

    Author : Carl-Henrik Andersson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; microglia; neuroinflammation; amyloid-beta; Alzheimer s disease; genetic association; biomarker; cerebrospinal fluid; zebrafish; clearance; in vivo imaging;

    Abstract : Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the most common form of dementia today. The disease is characterized by the presence of amyloid plaques and neurofibrillary tangles in the brain, accompanied by a progressive neurodegeneration leading to memory loss. READ MORE

  5. 3. Proteins of the Inter-α-inhibitor Family : Biosynthesis, Plasma Clearance and Interaction with Extracellular Matrix Components

    Author : Aneta Kaczmarczyk; Erik Fries; Anders Malmström; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Biochemistry; bikunin; inter-α-inhibitor; pre-α-inhibitor; intracellular processing; plasma clearance; extracellular matrix; binding; collagen; Biokemi; Biochemistry; Biokemi; Medical Biochemistry; medicinsk biokemi;

    Abstract : Bikunin, a chondroitin sulfate-containing protein of 25 kDa, has protease inhibitory activity and occurs in the plasma in free and complexed form. In inter-α-inhibitor (IαI) and pre-a-inhibitor (PαI) it is covalently linked through its chondroitin sulfate (CS) chain to two or one other polypeptide of about 80 kDa – heavy chains 1 and 2 (H1, H2) and heavy chain 3 (H3) – respectively.
