Lipopolysaccharide-binding protein (LBP) can reverse the amyloid state of fibrin seen or induced in Parkinson's disease

Pretorius, Etheresia; Page, Martin J.; Mbotwe, Sthembile; Kell, Douglas B. (Public Library of Science, 2018-03-01)

The thrombin-induced polymerisation of fibrinogen to form fibrin is well established as a late stage of blood clotting. It is known that Parkinson's Disease (PD) is accompanied by dysregulation in blood clotting, but it ...
Lipopolysaccharide-binding protein (LBP) reverses the amyloid state of fibrin seen in plasma of type 2 diabetics with cardiovascular co-morbidities

Pretorius, Etheresia; Mbotwe, Sthembile; Kell, Douglas B. (Nature Publishing Group, 2017-08-29)

Type 2 diabetes (T2D) has many cardiovascular complications, including a thrombotic propensity. Many such chronic, inflammatory diseases are accompanied (and may be exacerbated, and possibly even largely caused) by ...
The potential of LPS-binding protein to reverse amyloid formation in plasma fibrin of individuals with Alzheimer-type dementia

Pretorius, Etheresia; Bester, Janette; Page, Martin J.; Kell, Douglas B. (Frontiers Media, 2018-08-22)

Many studies indicate that there is a (mainly dormant) microbial component in the progressive development of Alzheimer-type dementias (ADs); and that in the case of Gram-negative organisms, a chief culprit might be the ...
