editStreptokinase:
Instead of bogus chelation therapy – has any one heard of using some forms of
Streptokinase to break down plaque - in prevention of CAD?

Lead - more links needed (re protein-structure terms)
edit"There are three domains to Streptokinase, denoted α (residues 1–150), β (residues 151–287), and γ (residues 288–414). Each domain binds plasminogen, although none can activate plasminogen independently" . . 'Domain' and 'residue' look they could do with links? and then the reader (= eg me) could check what this is saying? - or at least be able to form a view on whether s/he needs to!

"Queen Victoria had hemophilia"
editIt has been suggested that Queen Victoria was a carrier of Haemophilia B- but she didn't suffer from the disease. Women are unlikely to be affected, since inheritance is X-linked- so women, who are XX, will have a normal copy of the gene on their other X chromosome, where men have no second X and no normal copy Victoria appears to have had a spontaneous or de novo mutation and is usually considered the source of the disease in modern cases of haemophilia among royalty. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 46.64.26.59 (talk) 13:30, 1 March 2012 (UTC)
