Our blood consists of many cell types that develop through different stages from a precursor type—the blood stem cell. An ...

A study found that intermittent fasting may help minimize components of the blood clotting process by enhancing the production of indole-3-propionic acid by gut microorganisms. Blood clots can be ...

Your body needs factor VIII to form blood clots. Each time you bleed, this protein triggers a series of reactions known as the “coagulation cascade.” Coagulation is part of the process your ...

and the findings from this study offer new observations related to the process. Certain coagulation and anticoagulation proteins — proteins that aid or prevent blood clotting — have structural ...

The anti-clotting agent in their saliva uses a two-pronged process, binding to the surface of certain clotting proteins in the host's blood, and entering into the protein's core to temporarily ...

A key protein in the blood clotting process, called von Willebrand factor (VWF), protrudes as a long multimeric chain from the lining of blood vessels, unravelling as it encounters blood flow.

The tide of the blood coagulation cascade turns by a switch in thrombin specificity. Two new structures reveal how thrombomodulin's EGF domains flip the switch by blocking old substrates and ...

New research from RCSI University of Medicine and Health Sciences has found that white blood cells which 'remember' past ...

The complex interplay between coagulation and inflammation significantly impacts tissue and wound repair processes, which are critical in both acute and ...
