Identification and characterization of various plastics using THz-spectroscopy
Tobias Kleinke, Finn-Frederik Stiewe, Tristan Winkel +5
THz spectroscopy has reached imaging capability with a spatial resolution of a few micrometres. This property enables measurements and imaging of biological samples like cells. THz…
Anti-platelet factor 4/polyanion antibodies mediate a new mechanism of autoimmunity
Thi-Huong Nguyen, Nikolay Medvedev, Mihaela Delcea +1
Antibodies recognizing complexes of the chemokine platelet factor 4 (PF4-CXCL4) and polyanions (P) opsonize PF4-coated bacteria hereby mediating bacterial host defense. A subset of…
Rupture Forces among Human Blood Platelets at different Degrees of Activation
Thi-Huong Nguyen, Raghavendra Palankar, Van-Chien Bui +3
Little is known about mechanics underlying the interaction among platelets during activation and aggregation. Although the strength of a blood thrombus has likely major biological…
Drug-induced activation of integrin alpha IIb beta 3 leads to minor localized structural changes
Una Janke, Martin Kulke, Ina Buchholz +3
Integrins are transmembrane proteins involved in hemostasis, wound healing, immunity and cancer. In response to intracellular signals and ligand binding, integrins adopt different…
Interaction of fibrinogen-magnetic nanoparticle bioconjugates with integrin reconstituted into artificial membranes
Ulrike Martens, Una Janke, Sophie Moeller +3
Magnetic nanoparticles have a broad spectrum of biomedical applications including cell separation, diagnostics and therapy. One key issue is little explored: how do the engineered…
Lysine residues control the conformational dynamics of beta 2-glycoprotein I
Ina Buchholz, Peter Nestler, Susan Köppen +1
One of the major problems in the study of the dynamics of proteins is the visualization of changing conformations that are important for processes ranging from enzyme catalysis to…
