A direct oral anticoagulant, edoxaban, is as effective as vitamin K antagonists for the treatment of venous thromboembolism (VTE). However, the mechanism underlying the treatment effect on VTE remains to be determined. The aims of this study were to evaluate the effect of edoxaban on tissue
Fibrinolysis is regulated by the thrombin/thrombin-activatable fibrinolysis inhibitor (TAFI) system. Thus, anticoagulants and inhibitors of TAFI are expected to accelerate fibrinolysis. The combined effects of an anticoagulant and a TAFIa inhibitor on fibrinolysis remain unknown. The aim of this
Plant serine proteases have been widely used in food science and technology as well as in medicine. In this sense, several plant serine proteases have been proposed as potential anti-coagulants and anti-platelet agents. Previously, we have reported the purification and identification of a plant
We have studied a relationship between the degree of sulfonation and anticoagulant activity of starch from Solanum tuberosum (molecular weight, 25000-30000 Da; sulfonation degree, 0.4-2.5) and inulin from Helianthus tuberosus (molecular weight, 7000-8000 Da; sulfonation degree, 0.6-1.6). Starch and
A sensitive and reliable method for the simultaneous determination of hydroxycoumarin-type (brodifacoum, bromadiolone, coumatetralyl, and warfarin) and indandione-type (chlorophacinone, diphacinone, and pindone) rodenticides in agricultural products by gel permeation chromatography (GPC) and liquid
The disulfide folding pathway of bovine pancreatic trypsin inhibitor (BPTI) is characterized by the predominance of folding intermediates with native-like structures. Our laboratory has recently analyzed the folding pathway(s) of four 3-disulfide-containing proteins, including hirudin, potato
The Maori people were early New Zealand settlers of Polynesian descent. The incidence of non-infectious diseases appears to have been low in these people, perhaps in part due to the presence of protective chemical constituents within their food plant supply. Three of the tropical crops they
BACKGROUND
Anticoagulants are expected to promote fibrinolysis by counteracting the antifibrinolytic effects of thrombin, which include thrombin-activatable fibrinolysis inhibitor (TAFI) activation and clot structure enhancement. However, the efficiency of anticoagulants may vary remarkably, and the
BACKGROUND
Lemierre's syndrome was originally documented to be caused by Fusobacterium necrophorum. It is a very rare condition with a prevalence of one to 14.4 instances per million. Its presentation is varied, not only in composition but also in the infecting organism. Treatment with
