Generation and analysis of mouse lines with a defect in platelet secretion and application in mouse models of atherosclerosis and tumor metastasis [PDF]
Introduction: The involvement of platelets in various diseases has been increasingly recognized in the recent decades. This contribution is believed to involve platelet secretion and formation of reactive microparticles.

Chromogranin A, an “On/Off” Switch Controlling Dense-Core Secretory Granule Biogenesis
We present evidence that regulation of dense-core secretory granule biogenesis and hormone secretion in endocrine cells is dependent on chromogranin A (CGA).

The success of implanted tissue-engineered vascular grafts (TEVGs) relies on the coordinated inflammation and wound healing processes that simultaneously degrade the scaffold and guide the formation of a neovessel.

Serotyping of Toxoplasma gondii Infection Using Peptide Membrane Arrays
The intracellular parasite Toxoplasma gondii can cause chronic infections in most warm-blooded animals, including humans. In the USA, strains belonging to four different Toxoplasma clonal lineages (types 1, 2, 3, and 12) are commonly isolated, whereas ...

Secretion of Rhoptry and Dense Granule Effector Proteins by Nonreplicating Toxoplasma gondii Uracil Auxotrophs Controls the Development of Antitumor Immunity. [PDF]
Nonreplicating type I uracil auxotrophic mutants of Toxoplasma gondii possess a potent ability to activate therapeutic immunity to established solid tumors by reversing immune suppression in the tumor microenvironment.

207 Omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids attenuate platelet reactivity in postmenopausal women
OBJECTIVES/GOALS: This study aimed to investigate the mechanistic effects of fish oil (âμ-3 fatty acids) or evening primrose oil (âμ-6 fatty acids) supplementation on platelet reactivity in postmenopausal women.

Functional and structural properties of dentate granule cells with hilar basal dendrites in mouse entorhino-hippocampal slice cultures [PDF]
During postnatal development hippocampal dentate granule cells (GCs) often extend dendrites from the basal pole of their cell bodies into the hilar region. These so-called hilar basal dendrites (hBD) usually regress with maturation.

Morphologically, the tachyzoites and the tissue cysts of Neospora caninum are difficult to distinguish from those of other cyst-forming apicomplexan parasites such as Toxoplasma gondii. Several stage-specific antigens have been identified in T.

An Investigation of ABO Blood Type and the Platelet Delta Granule Storage Pool
Individuals with bleeding tendencies are more likely to have blood type O than blood types A, B, or AB. Platelet storage pool deficiencies are a lesser-known group of bleeding disorders which often go undiagnosed and may account for a significant number ...
