Using colloidal gold-conjugated fibrinogen (F-Au) it is shown that exogenous fibrinogen can participate in the platelet release reaction. In the absence of F-Au, internal secretory vacuoles readily formed in human platelets stimulated with thrombin, but extrusion of their content was delayed. Upon incubation with F-Au, endocytic channels induced by F-Au-receptor interactions, fused with internal vacuoles, thus establishing spatial communications of the latter with the outer medium.

Background: Rare bleeding disorders (RBDs) include fibrinogen (Factor I), prothrombin (Factor II), Factor V(FV), combined Factor V and Factor VIII, Factor VII, Factor X, Factor XI, Factor XII, and Factor XIII deficiencies. This group accounts for 3-5% of all factor deficiencies. Different symptoms may occur, ranging from mild or moderate bleeding to serious and life-threatening bleeding, which may not be related to the factor level.

Background: Ischemic stroke (IS) is an important disease causing death and disability worldwide, and further investigation of IS-related genes through genome-wide association study (GWAS) data is valuable.
Methods: The study included GWAS data from 62,100 IS patients of European origin and 1,234,808 controls in a cross-tissue transcriptome association study (TWAS). A joint analysis was first performed by the Unified Test for Molecular Markers (UTMOST) and FUSION methods.

Article Synopsis
- L. (RCL) Carbonisata, a medicinal plant traditionally used for controlling bleeding, has shown potential for enhancing hemostasis, though its specific active components remain unclear.
- Researchers created novel carbon dots (RCL-CDs) from this plant and characterized their properties using various scientific techniques, finding they had a small average particle size and distinct elemental composition.
- Experimental results in mouse models indicated that RCL-CDs significantly reduced bleeding time and volume, suggesting their efficacy in promoting clotting through changes in fibrinogen levels, platelet counts, and prothrombin time.

Diabetic nephropathy (DN), a severe complication of diabetes, is widely recognized as a primary contributor to end-stage renal disease. Recent studies indicate that the inflammation triggered by Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) is of paramount importance in the onset and progression of DN. TLR4 can bind to various ligands, including exogenous ligands such as proteins and polysaccharides from bacteria or viruses, as well as endogenous ligands such as biglycan, fibrinogen, and hyaluronan.

Objective: To investigate the characteristic of circulating microparticle in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and its possible mechanism of promoting coagulation.
Methods: A prospective case-control study was conducted. The patients with coronary heart disease admitted to the second department of cardiology in Harbin First Hospital from June to November 2023 were enrolled, and they were grouped according to whether the patients occurred AMI or not.
