Acute Stent Thrombosis Associated with Eptifibatide-Induced Profound Thrombocytopenia
Background. Eptifibatide is an inhibitor of the platelet glycoprotein (GP) IIb/IIIa receptor that is commonly used in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Case.

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 ...

Eptifibatide-induced acute profound thrombocytopenia: A case report
Rationale: Eptifibatide is an antiplatelet agent used in the medical management of acute coronary syndrome. Although multiple studies did not reveal a significant association between eptifibatide and the development of thrombocytopenia, recent case ...

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 ...
