Huissier
The French word ''huissier'' ("Doorman (profession), doorman", from ''huis'', an archaic term for a door) designates ceremonial offices in France and Switzerland. France In French government ministries and Parliament, a ''huissier'' is an employee who provides general service to the minister or assembly (transmitting messages, handling ballot boxes, etc.). Traditionally, they wear a chain around the neck, because their original function was to lock and unlock doors. Before the Revolution, the title could be a court office in the household of royalty, as a type of valet de chambre. Switzerland In Switzerland, ''huissier'' is the French equivalent of German ''Weibel'' (also ''Amtsweibel''), the term for a ceremonial office in Swiss cantonal and federal governments, parliaments, and courts of law. At the federal level, the office is known as ''Bundesweibel'', at the cantons of Switzerland, cantonal level as ''Standesweibel'' for governments, ''Ratsweibel'' for parliaments and '' ...

Weibel–Palade Body
Weibel–Palade bodies are the storage granules of endothelial cells, the cells that form the inner lining of the blood vessels and heart. They manufacture, store and release two principal molecules, von Willebrand factor and P-selectin, and thus play a dual role in hemostasis and inflammation. Etymology Weibel–Palade bodies were initially described by the Swiss anatomist Ewald R. Weibel and the Romanian physiologist George Emil Palade in 1964. Palade won Nobel Prize in Physiology and Medicine in 1974 for his work on the function of organelles in cells. Constituents There are two major components stored within Weibel–Palade bodies. One is von Willebrand factor (vWF), a multimeric protein that plays a major role in blood coagulation. Storage of long polymers of vWF gives this specialized lysosomal structure an oblong shape and striated appearance on electron microscope. The other is P-selectin, which plays a central role in the ability of inflamed endothelial cells to recr ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
