Thrombus composition and its implication in ischemic stroke assessment and revascularization treatments by Juan Marta-Enguita, Florencio J.D. Machado, Josune Orbe, Roberto Muñoz

“…Development: Thrombotic pathways involved in the different vascular beds share common mechanisms, causing difficulties in the identification of specific patterns associated with stroke aetiology. However, other factors such as clot formation time, associated inflammatory status, or activation of additional immune and coagulation pathways (neutrophil extracellular trap [NET] delivery, platelet aggregation, endothelial activation, and von Willebrand Factor release) have been described as determinants in thrombus characteristics. …”

Identification and expression analysis of c-type and g-type lysozymes genes after Aeromonas hydrophila infection in African catfish by Hasan Nasrullah, Yanti Inneke Nababan, Dwi Hany Yanti, Dian Hardiantho, Sri Nuryati, Muhammad Zairin Junior, Julie Ekasari, Alimuddin Alimuddin

“…Catalytic and other conserved residues were identified by multiple sequences alignment and they showed high similarity with other teleost fish species. mRNA levels of the genes were analyzed by using qPCR method and their expressions in the spleen, liver, and head kidney were rapidly modulated after Aeromonas hydrophila injection, with different patterns were observed in each organ. These results confirmed that c- and g-type lysozymes played an important role in non-specific immunity against A. hydrophila infection. …”
