Serotonin reuptake inhibitors and cardiovascular disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Selective serotonin re-uptake inhibiting drugs (SSRIs) are widely used for endogenous depression. In addition to depleting the nerve terminals of serotonin they also lower blood platelet serotonin levels.

Circulating histones as clinical biomarkers in critically ill conditions

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Circulating histones are emerging as promising biomarkers in critical illness due to their diagnostic, prognostic, and therapeutic potential. Detection methods such as ELISA and mass spectrometry provide reliable approaches for quantifying histone levels in plasma samples.

Transcellular metabolism of leukotriene A4 by rabbit blood cells: lack of relevant LTC4-synthase activity in rabbit platelets

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1997
The objective of this study was to determine the transcellular metabolism of leukotriene A4 by rabbit blood cells. mixed peripheral blood leukocyte preparations with and without platelets in a ratio of 1:40 were challenged with the Ca(2+)-ionophore ...

Platelets promote macrophage polarization toward pro-inflammatory phenotype and increase survival of septic mice [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
We investigated the contribution of human platelets to macrophage effector properties in the presence of lipopolysaccharide (LPS), as well as the beneficial effects and time frame for platelet transfusion in septic animals.

Imeglimin attenuates liver fibrosis by inhibiting vesicular ATP release from hepatic stellate cells

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Imeglimin, at clinically relevant concentrations, inhibits vesicular ATP accumulation and release from hepatic stellate cells, thereby attenuating purinergic signaling and reducing fibrogenic activation. This mechanism reveals a newly identified antifibrotic action of imeglimin beyond glycemic control.

Assessment of the influence of the inflammatory process on the activation of blood platelets and morphological parameters in patients with ulcerative colitis (<i>colitis ulcerosa</i>)

open access: yesFolia Histochemica et Cytobiologica, 2011
Ulcerative colitis (<i>colitis ulcerosa</i>) is a non-specific inflammatory bowel disease of unknown etiology. The symptoms which are observed in the course of ulcerative colitis are: an increase in the number of leukocytes and blood ...

Platelets in Amyloidogenic Mice Are Activated and Invade the Brain

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2020
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disease with a complex and not fully understood pathogenesis. Besides brain-intrinsic hallmarks such as abnormal deposition of harmful proteins, i.e., amyloid beta in plaques and hyperphosphorylated Tau in ...

Tonic signaling of the B‐cell antigen‐specific receptor is a common functional hallmark in chronic lymphocytic leukemia cell phosphoproteomes at early disease stages

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
B‐cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia (B‐CLL) and monoclonal B‐cell lymphocytosis (MBL) show altered proteomes and phosphoproteomes, analyzed using mass spectrometry, protein microarrays, and western blotting. Identifying 2970 proteins and 316 phosphoproteins, including 55 novel phosphopeptides, we reveal BCR and NF‐kβ/STAT3 signaling in disease ...

BLOOD PLATELETS AS ACTIVATORS AND REGULATORS OF INFLAMMATORY AND IMMUNE REACTIONS. PART 1. BASIC CHARACTERISTICS OF PLATELETS AS INFLAMMATORY CELLS

open access: yesМедицинская иммунология, 2018
Platelets are the smallest blood cells, and yet their total volume and surface area exceed those of all types of leukocytes combined. Platelets are produced by the bone marrow megakaryocytes and megakaryocytes in the lung microvessels.

Origin of Blood Platelets [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 1955
THE conclusion of J. H. Wright1 that blood platelets are detached portions of the cytoplasm of megakaryocytes has been supported by much circumstantial evidence, and is generally accepted2, although unequivocal direct evidence is lacking.
