Dynamics of coagulation proteins upon ICU admission and after one year of recovery from COVID-19: a preliminary study.
Front Cell Infect Microbiol
January 2025
Unit of Viral Infection and Immunity, National Center for Microbiology (CNM), Health Institute Carlos III (ISCIII), Majadahonda, Madrid, Spain.
Objectives: This study aimed to investigate the association of baseline coagulation proteins with hospitalization variables in COVID-19 patients admitted to ICU, as well as coagulation system changes after one-year post-discharge, taking into account gender-specific bias in the coagulation profile.
Methods: We conducted a prospective longitudinal study on 49 ICU-admitted COVID-19 patients. Proteins were measured using a Luminex 200™.
Multifunctional Artificial Peroxisome Basing on Lactate Oxidase as a Self-Cascade Enhancing Active Oxygen Amplifier for Tumor Therapy.

The intricacy, diversity, and heterogeneity of cancers make research focus on developing multimodal synergistic therapy strategies. Herein, an oxygen (O) self-feeding peroxisomal lactate oxidase (LOX)-based LOX-Ce6-Mn (LCM) was synthesized using a biomineralization approach, which was used for cascade chemodynamic therapy (CDT)/photodynamic therapy (PDT) combination therapies through dual depletion of lactate (Lac) and reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation. After endocytosis into tumor cells, the endogenous hydrogen peroxide (HO) can be converted to O by the catalase-like (CAT) activity of LCM, which can facilitate the catalytic reaction of LOX to consume more Lac and alleviate tumor hypoxia to enhance the generation of singlet oxygen (O) upon light irradiation.

Antibody-mediated rejection (AMR) remains a major complication after solid organ transplantation (SOT). Current treatment options are inefficient and result in drastic impairment of the general immunity. To selectively eliminate responsible alloreactive B cells characterized by anti-donor-HLA B cell receptors (BCRs), we generated T cells overcoming rejection by antibodies (CORA-Ts) engineered with a novel chimeric receptor comprising a truncated donor-HLA molecule as antigen recognition domain.

Taurine, although not a coding amino acid, is the most common free amino acid in the body. Taurine has multiple and complex functions in protecting mitochondria against oxidative-nitrosative stress. In this comprehensive review paper, we introduce a novel potential role for taurine in protecting from deuterium (heavy hydrogen) toxicity.

: Skeletal muscle mass depletion adversely affects critically ill patient outcomes. Standardized methods for assessing muscle mass in this population are limited, particularly regarding changes during ICU stays and their implications for risk stratification. : In this secondary analysis of our prospective data registry of surgical ICU patients, we used a single slice extracted from a computed tomography scan to determine the patient's direction of absolute change in skeletal muscle mass between two different time points (-14 d to +0 d and +5 d to +21 d) during his or her critical illness.
