Thrombin-induced cytoskeleton dynamics in spread human platelets observed with fast scanning ion conductance microscopy

Scientific Reports, 2017
Platelets are small anucleate blood cells involved in haemostasis. Platelet activation, caused by agonists such as thrombin or by contact with the extracellular matrix, leads to platelet adhesion, aggregation, and coagulation. Activated platelets undergo

Increased platelet reactivity in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis is mediated by a plasma factor [PDF]

, 2014
Introduction Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF) is a progressive, incurable fibrotic interstitial lung disease with a prognosis worse than many cancers. Its pathogenesis is poorly understood.

An efficient method for isolation of representative and contamination-free population of blood platelets for proteomic studies

Platelets, 2017
To date, there has been no ideal method for blood platelet isolation which allows one to obtain a preparation devoid of contaminations, reflecting the activation status and morphological features of circulating platelets.

Isolation of Human Platelets (Thrombocytes)

The Scientific World Journal, 2002
Platelets from human blood can be isolated in high yield by centrifugation of whole blood over an iodixanol density barrier of 1.063 g/ml. The separation from all of the blood cells (which form a pellet) is based on the slower sedimentation velocity of ...

Modulation of interferon-[alpha] secretion by activated platelets in systemic lupus erythematosus. [PDF]

, 2008
Type I interferons play a key role in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) pathogenesis as an "IFN signature" is found in the majority of patients with active SLE.

Spatial confinement alters morphology, spreading dynamics, and mechanics of adherent platelets

Biophysical Reports
Platelets are small blood cells involved in hemostasis and wound healing. After activation, platelets interact with their surrounding environment and respond to biochemical and mechanical stimuli by mechanosensitive and haptotactic mechanisms.
