The PAFAH1B1 gene (also known as LIS1) provides instructions for making a protein that is one part (subunit) of a complex called platelet-activating factor acetylhydrolase 1B (PAFAH1B). This complex regulates the amount of a molecule called platelet activating factor (PAF) in the brain. PAF is thought to be involved in directing the movement of nerve cells, a process known as neuronal migration. Proper neuronal migration is essential for normal brain development and function.

The PAFAH1B1 gene (also known as LIS1) provides instructions for making a protein that is one part (subunit) of a complex called platelet-activating factor acetylhydrolase 1B (PAFAH1B). This complex regulates the amount of a molecule called platelet activating factor (PAF) in the brain. PAF is thought to be involved in directing the movement of nerve cells, a process known as neuronal migration. Proper neuronal migration is essential for normal brain development and function.
The PAFAH1B1 protein is also involved in the organisation of the cell's structural framework (the cytoskeleton). This protein interacts with microtubules and with their associated proteins. Microtubules are the rigid, hollow fibers that make up the cytoskeleton; they play an important role in cell division and cell movement. Interactions between the PAFAH1B1 protein and the microtubules and their associated proteins are also essential for proper neuronal migration.

Patient information leaflet
Test di coagulazione del sangue
Test di coagulazione del sangue are used to diagnose e assess bleeding problems and to monitor people who take warfarin or other anticoagulant medicines. You may be advised to have blood clotting tests: If you have a suspected bleeding disorder. For example, if you bleed a lot after cuts, or if you bruise easily. If you have certain liver diseases that can.

Anticoagulanti
How do anticoagulanti work. Our blood has a complex system of chemicals in it, which, when activated, cause blood clots to form. Wi... These activated platelets and the damaged tissue release chemicals which react with other chemicals and proteins in the blood, called clotting factors. There are 13 known clotting factors which are called by their.

Patient information leaflet
Trombofilia
The body has a natural clotting process in the blood, which is altered in thrombophilia. Thrombophilia refers to a group of conditions where the blood clots more easily than normal. These blood clots can cause problems such as deep vein thrombosis (DVT) or pulmonary embolism. See the separate leaflets called Deep vein thrombosis and Pulmonary.

Patient information leaflet
Il sistema immunitario
This leaflet gives a brief overview of the sistema immunitario and how it works. A person with a weak immune system might have difficulty fighting off infections. In autoimmune diseases the body is unable to tell what is its own and what is foreign, so it attacks itself. Autoimmune diseases can attack any part of the body - eg, type 1 diabetes.

Leucemie infantili
Leukaemia is a cancer of the cells which develop into blood cells. There are different types of leukaemia. Most children with leukaemia will have acute lymphoblastic leukaemia. Some will have acute myeloid leukaemia. The outlook (prognosis) for children with leukaemia is usually very good and most children are cured. This leaflet gives a general.
