When cancer cells and platelets mix, the risk of metastasis and cancer-related deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE) increases, but a small, proof-of-concept study suggests that the ...
A major factor in coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19)-associated mortality is the development of coagulation abnormalities that may result in thromboembolism. Human platelets have been found by ...
In a recent study published in the IUBMB journal, researchers assessed the association between platelet-activating factor (PAF) and severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) spike ...
A small study testing the pharmacodynamic effects of several antiplatelet agents suggests that tirofiban (Aggrastat; Medicure), a glycoprotein IIb/IIIa inhibitor, may provide “more potent and ...
Ado-trastuzumab emtansine (T-DM1) treatment results in grade 3-4 thrombocytopenia in 8%-13% of patients. Prior in vitro studies reported T-DM1 inhibition of megakaryocyte maturation as the cause of ...
Diminished platelet autophagy potentially contributes to thrombocytopenia in cirrhotic patients. H 2 S modulates platelet autophagy and functions possibly via the PDGFR-α/PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling ...
Previously we showed that platelets accumulate in areas of low CBF 4h after brain ischemia. Similarly, CSER and CBF recovery after brain ischemia was enhanced in dogs treated with either prostacyclin ...
A new study created a score to identify patients with platelet hyperreactivity and risk of related, future cardiovascular disease. Platelets are circulating cell fragments known to clump up and form ...
