Formation of tight junction-like structures of zonula occludens 2 in platelet–platelet interaction by Magdolna Nagy, Markus Bender, Natalie S. Poulter, Jeremy A. Pike, Albert Sickmann, Sonja Vondenhoff, Natalia Bielicka, Marc A.M.J. van Zandvoort, Rory R. Koenen, Hugo ten Cate, Xavier Stéphenne, Johan W.M. Heemskerk, Constance C.F.M.J. Baaten

“…In a blood sample from a patient deficient in ZO-2, we observed an increased thrombus stability, suggesting a potential regulation of thrombus stability by these TJ-like structures. Conclusion: Jointly, these data point to the assembly of TJ-like structures of interacting platelets, which enforce platelet adhesion contacts but lower 3-dimensional thrombus stability.…”

On the treatment of measurement uncertainty in stochastic modeling of basic variables by Stefan Küttenbaum, Stefan Maack, Alexander Taffe, Thomas Braml

“…The GUM-framework is internationally accepted in metrology and can serve as starting point for the appropriate processing of measured data to be used in assessment. In conclusion, the effects of incorporating the non-destructively measured data into reliability analysis are presented using a prestressed concrete bridge as case-study.…”
