Hantaviruses have a death rate approaching 40% with no vaccines or treatments. These viruses are transmitted from rodents to people and are classified into Old World hantaviruses (OWHs), which cause ...
Variations in thrombus composition significantly influence the efficacy of conventional thrombolytic therapies in acute ischemic stroke. Emerging treatments, designed to target distinct components of ...
Thrombosis often starts with platelet adhesion via the interaction between VWF (von Willebrand factor) and its platelet receptor, the GPIb-IX (glycoprotein Ib-IX) complex. GPIb-IX also induces ...

A new study found that both lupus anticoagulant (LA) and anti-β2 glycoprotein I (β2GPI) IgG/IgM antibodies had predictive value for adverse pregnancy outcomes and complications, specifically ...
The blood-brain barrier weakens during normal aging and in neurodegenerative disease, but the reasons are not fully understood. In the February 26 Nature, scientists led by Tony Wyss-Coray and Carolyn ...

The first time Ryan Shenvi played Wordle, when the popular word-guessing game was just taking off, he remembers thinking, “Oh, we should do this for retrosynthesis.” The La Jolla–based Scripps ...
Another interesting finding is that recognition of a substrate glycoprotein can be inhibited by a glycosyltransferase's own glycans attaching to its lectin domains. Namely, their activity is ...
Specific glycans attached to the GnT-IVa and GnT-IVb can bind to the enzyme’s ligand-binding site, interfering with recognition and binding to the glycosylation proteins’ normal glycoprotein ...
