🆕 RCSI research has shown how a new medicine could treat the common bleeding disorder, von Willebrand disease. The team RCSI School of Pharmacy and Biomolecular Sciences demonstrated how the drug helps to maintain levels of von Willebrand clotting factor in the blood. 🔗 rcsi.com/dublin/news-an… #RCSIdiscover

VWF-R1205H (Vicenza), known for causing enhanced clearance of VWF, ▶️causes conformational changes in the VWF-D’D3 domains & enhances VWF binding to clearance receptors LRP1 and SR-A1. James ODonnell ICVB RCSI RCSI David Lillicrap Jamie O' Sullivan sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Prof. Hervig will be sorely missed by all in the IBTS. We wish him a very happy retirement!

The gene encoding von Willebrand factor is located on the short arm of chromosome 12, and a highly homologous pseudogene that does not generate functional transcripts has been mapped on chromosome 22. #VWD go.nature.com/4cSDuCA

von Willebrand factor synthesis occurs in endothelial cells and megakaryocytes as a single-chain polypeptide that, subsequently, undergoes extensive processing. #VWD go.nature.com/4cSDuCA

👀Let’s take a peek at the story that made our #october #coverart In #vWD type vicenza, #vWF clearance is accelerated. How⁉️ 🧬 Atiq et al. showed that the VWF-R1205H mutation leads to loss of positive charge and increased binding to macrophage clearance receptors via LRP1 and

#BT200 prolongs VWF half-life by attenuating macrophage-mediated clearance and specifically the interaction of K1405-K1408 in the VWF-A1 domain with macrophage LRP1. A anovel therapeutic approach for #von Willebrand disease and #hemophilia. ashpublications.org/blood/article/…

Valuable information on the mode of action of BT200 published in Blood Advances. It blocks VWF clearance through LRP1. BT200 is a treatment being developed for non-type 3 von Willebrand disease. tinyurl.com/mss46ja3 #VWD #VWF #Willebrand

REMINDER: Our next #PBSResearch seminar series supported by Thermo Fisher is tomorrow Tues. 1st Oct. at 3pm in the Cheyne LT. We are thrilled to welcome Prof. James Luyendyk (Jim luyendyk) from MSU to see his fascinating work ‘targeting vWF to accelerate liver repair’🔬

Very excited to share our science and kick off new collaborations. Coffee is also mentioned, which is excellent.

Celebrating the great news of promotion to Professor of nursing for our colleague Deirdre O'Donnell RN, PhD, SFHEA @ulsterunisonp Congratulations Professor O’Donnell!! We are #proudofuu #ulsternurse #ulsterparamedics

Delighted to be promoted to Professor of Nursing. Thanks to everyone who has supported me and believed in me.

New RCSI research has identified a previously unrecognised subgroup of patients with the bleeding disorder von Willebrand disease. The findings challenge current diagnostic practices and highlight a need to adapt clinical guidelines. ➡️ rcsi.com/dublin/news-an… #RCSIdiscover
