Platelet surface receptor glycoprotein VI-dimer is overexpressed in stroke: The Glycoprotein VI in Stroke (GYPSIE) study results. [PDF]
ObjectivesPlatelet activation underpins thrombus formation in ischemic stroke. The active, dimeric form of platelet receptor glycoprotein (GP) VI plays key roles by binding platelet ligands collagen and fibrin, leading to platelet activation.

Genetic variation of platelet glycoprotein VI and the risk of venous thromboembolism [PDF]
Family studies have indicated that heritability explains 50-60% of the venous thromboembolism (VTE) events, and in recent years, several single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) have been found to influence the VTE risk. Glycoprotein 6 (GP6) rs1613662, also known as T13254C, is an A/G single nucleotide variation in amino acid 219, which results in a ...

Sequence-specific 2'-O-methoxyethyl antisense oligonucleotides activate human platelets through glycoprotein VI, triggering formation of platelet-leukocyte aggregates [PDF]
Antisense oligonucleotides (ASO) are DNA-based, disease-modifying drugs. Clinical trials with 2'-O-methoxyethyl (2’MOE) ASO have shown dose- and sequence-specific lowering of platelet counts according to two phenotypes.

Sinomenium acutum Modulates Platelet Aggregation and Thrombus Formation by Regulating the Glycoprotein VI-Mediated Signalosome in Mice [PDF]
Sinomenium acutum (SA) has long been used as a traditional medicine in China, Japan, and Korea to treat a wide range of diseases. It has been traditionally used to ameliorate inflammation and improve blood circulation.

Minimal Collagen-Binding Epitope of Glycoprotein VI in Human and Mouse Platelets [PDF]
Glycoprotein VI (GPVI) is a platelet-specific receptor for collagen and fibrin, regulating important platelet functions such as platelet adhesion and thrombus growth. Although the blockade of GPVI function is widely recognized as a potent anti-thrombotic

Research advances on platelet glycoprotein VI in ischemic stroke [PDF]
Atherosclerosis is one cause of ischemic stroke. Subcutaneous collagen is exposed when the fibrous cap of an atherosclerotic plaque ruptures. Platelets bind to collagen, leading to platelet activation, aggregation, and thrombus formation.

Colchicine inhibits ROS generation in response to glycoprotein VI stimulation [PDF]
Colchicine inhibits coronary and cerebrovascular events in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD), and although known to have anti-inflammatory properties, its mechanisms of action are incompletely understood.

Immobilized fibrinogen activates human platelets through glycoprotein VI [PDF]
Glycoprotein VI, a major platelet activation receptor for collagen and fibrin, is considered a particularly promising, safe antithrombotic target. In this study, we show that human glycoprotein VI signals upon platelet adhesion to fibrinogen.

Functional characterization of a nanobody-based glycoprotein VI-specific platelet agonist [PDF]
Background: Glycoprotein (GP)VI is a platelet-specific collagen receptor required for platelet activation during hemostasis. Platelet reactivity toward collagen is routinely assessed during diagnostic workup of platelet disorders.

Platelet glycoprotein VI genetic quantitative and qualitative defects
Platelet membrane glycoprotein VI (GPVI) is increasingly recognized as an important receptor for thrombus formation and growth. Numerous arguments have been published indicating that GPVI plays a major role in thrombosis without being essential for ...
