Human platelet activation by Escherichia coli: roles for FcγRIIA and integrin αIIbβ3 [PDF]
Gram-negative Escherichia coli cause diseases such as sepsis and hemolytic uremic syndrome in which thrombotic disorders can be found. Direct platelet–bacterium interactions might contribute to some of these conditions; however, mechanisms of human ...

A Review of Clinical Trials with Eptifibatide in Cardiology [PDF]
ABSTRACTGlycoprotein (GP) IIb/IIIa receptor antagonists inhibit the binding of ligands to activated platelet GP IIb/IIIa receptors and, therefore, prevent the formation of platelet thrombi. Additional antithrombin therapy should be given in connection with GP IIb/IIIa administration.

Phosphorylation of CLEC-2 is dependent on lipid rafts, actin polymerization,secondary mediators, and Rac [PDF]
The C-type lectin-like receptor 2 (CLEC-2)activates platelets through Src and Syk tyrosine kinases via a single cytoplasmic YxxL motif known as a hem immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motif (hemITAM).Here, we demonstrate using sucrose gradient ...

Evaluation of CYP2C19 Clinical Decision Support Alerts to Guide P2Y<sub>12</sub> Inhibitor Prescribing. [PDF]
P2Y12 inhibitor selection involves numerous factors, including CYP2C19 genetics, since evidence demonstrates reduced clopidogrel efficacy in patients with decreased or no function CYP2C19 variants. In 2020, Indiana University health embedded interruptive clinical decision support (CDS) alerts in the electronic health record (EHR) to recommend ...

Stroke in Patients With Acute Coronary Syndromes: Incidence and Outcomes in the Platelet Glycoprotein IIb/IIIa in Unstable Angina: Receptor Suppression Using Integrilin Therapy (PURSUIT) Trial [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The incidence of stroke in patients with acute coronary syndromes has not been clearly defined because few trials in this patient population have been large enough to provide stable estimates of stroke rates.

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

How safe is eptifibatide during urgent carotid artery stenting?
Background: Glycoprotein IIB/IIIA inhibitors are occasionally utilized during carotid artery stenting (CAS) in the presence or absence of a visualized intra-operative thrombus. Objective: We assess the hemorrhagic and clinical outcomes associated with

Structural basis for pure antagonism of integrin αVβ3 by a high affinity form of fibronectin [PDF]
Integrins are important therapeutic targets. However, current RGD-based anti-integrin drugs are also partial agonists, inducing conformational changes that trigger potentially fatal immune reactions and paradoxical cell adhesion.
