Abstract
Deep vein thrombosis is an acute medical condition, and the molecular basis of this etiology will be crucial in the discovery of more advanced therapies. This review has focused at the Notch signaling pathway, which plays a significant role in different physiological activities such as homeostasis, development, and disease. Also, reveal macrophage function in inflammation and thrombosis in depth, with a focus on their polarization and interaction with the endothelium during thrombosis. In this context, some essential cellular and molecular mechanisms relevant to thrombus pathogenesis, DVT aetiology and risk factors, as well as elements and composition of the Notch pathway, are covered in the end, with a focus on elements that distinguish canonical from non-canonical signaling pathways and their biological relevance to macrophages. Notch signaling has been shown to influence macrophage activation and polarization, influencing their function in thrombosis breakdown and resolution. This interplay between Notch signaling and macrophages may reveal possible treatment targets for DVT. Discuss the physiological role of Notch signaling in vascular biology, as well as how it contributes to thrombosis. The difficulties in implementing these discoveries in clinical practice are discussed, along with the status of ongoing clinical trials and experimental investigations focussing on macrophage-directed treatments and Notch inhibitors. These molecular insights synthesis provides a basis for the creation of novel strategies for the efficient management of DVT.
期刊介绍:
Cell Biochemistry and Biophysics (CBB) aims to publish papers on the nature of the biochemical and biophysical mechanisms underlying the structure, control and function of cellular systems
The reports should be within the framework of modern biochemistry and chemistry, biophysics and cell physiology, physics and engineering, molecular and structural biology. The relationship between molecular structure and function under investigation is emphasized.
Examples of subject areas that CBB publishes are:
· biochemical and biophysical aspects of cell structure and function;
· interactions of cells and their molecular/macromolecular constituents;
· innovative developments in genetic and biomolecular engineering;
· computer-based analysis of tissues, cells, cell networks, organelles, and molecular/macromolecular assemblies;
· photometric, spectroscopic, microscopic, mechanical, and electrical methodologies/techniques in analytical cytology, cytometry and innovative instrument design
For articles that focus on computational aspects, authors should be clear about which docking and molecular dynamics algorithms or software packages are being used as well as details on the system parameterization, simulations conditions etc. In addition, docking calculations (virtual screening, QSAR, etc.) should be validated either by experimental studies or one or more reliable theoretical cross-validation methods.
