Plasmin

 

Plasmin is an important enzyme (EC 3.4.21.7) present in blood that degrades many blood plasma proteins, including fibrin clots. The degradation of fibrin is termed fibrinolysis. In humans, the plasmin protein is encoded by the PLG gene.

Periostin

Periostin (POSTN, PN, or osteoblast-specific factor OSF-2) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the POSTN gene. Periostin functions as a ligand for alpha-V/beta-3 and alpha-V/beta-5 integrins to support adhesion and migration of epithelial cells. Periostin is a gla domain vitamin K dependent factor.

Tensegrity and Equilibrium: Understanding the Importance of Fascial Balance for a Healthy Body

Tensegrity and Equilibrium: Understanding the Importance of Fascial Balance for a Healthy Body Tweet Follow @AZSPerformance Maintaining balance is essential for good health, as it enables us to move through our daily activities with ease and grace. However, balance is not just about standing upright or walking steadily - it involves a complex interplay of forces and tensions that are distributed throughout the body. One concept that can help us understand this interplay is tensegrity, which refers to a structural principle in which a system of continuous tension and compression creates a stable and flexible framework. In the context of the human body, tensegrity explains how our bones, muscles, fascia, and other tissues work together to maintain our form and function. One key aspect of tensegrity is the role of fascial tension. Fascia is a network of conn...

Rhodopsin

Rhodopsin (also known as visual purple) is a light-sensitive receptor protein involved in visual phototransduction. It is named after ancient Greek ῥόδον (rhódon) for rose, due to its pinkish color, and ὄψις (ópsis) for sight. Rhodopsin is a biological pigment found in the rods of the retina and is a G-protein-coupled receptor (GPCR). It belongs to a group of photoswitchable opsins. Rhodopsin is extremely sensitive to light, and thus enables vision in low-light conditions. When rhodopsin is exposed to light, it immediately photobleaches. In humans, it is regenerated fully in about 30 minutes, after which rods are more sensitive. Rhodopsin was discovered by Franz Christian Boll in 1876.
