Absence of bleeding upon dual antiplatelet therapy in a patient with a immune GPVI deficiency
Acquired deficiencies in platelet glycoprotein VI are rare and have not been found associated with other defects. Here we report the case of a 64-year old male patient presenting an immune GPVI deficiency associated to a mutation in the alpha-actinin ...

Most agonists stimulate platelet Ca2+ rises via G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) or ITAM-linked receptors (ILRs). Well studied are the GPCRs stimulated by the soluble agonists thrombin (PAR1, PAR4), ADP (P2Y1, P2Y12), and thromboxane A2 (TP ...

Efficient inhibition of collagen-induced platelet activation and adhesion by LAIR-2, a soluble Ig-like receptor family member. [PDF]
LAIR-1 (Leukocyte Associated Ig-like Receptor -1) is a collagen receptor that functions as an inhibitory receptor on immune cells. It has a soluble family member, LAIR-2, that also binds collagen and can interfere with LAIR-1/collagen interactions ...

The association between endometriosis and autoimmune diseases is well known, however no acquired platelet function defect has been described so far. We describe the case of two patients with endometriosis associated with an antiplatelet glycoprotein VI ...

Ibrutinib-associated alveolar hemorrhage and spontaneous hemothorax
Ibrutinib is an irreversible inhibitor of Bruton’s tyrosine kinase (BTK), a cytoplasmic tyrosine kinase of the Tec family, which plays an important role in the B-cell receptor signaling pathway [1].

The relationship between platelet glycoprotein VI T13254C polymorphism and acute myocardial infarction (MI) [PDF]
Background and Aim: Myocardial infarction (MI) is a major cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Epidemiological studies indicate that MI results from complex interactions between long-term environmental influences, concomitant disorders, and ...

Sanguinarine Attenuates Collagen-Induced Platelet Activation and Thrombus Formation
Sanguinarine, a benzophenanthridine alkaloid, has been described to have an antiplatelet activity. However, its antithrombotic effect and the mechanism of platelet inhibition have not thoroughly been explored.

Posttranslational modifications of platelet adhesion receptors
Platelets play a key role in normal hemostasis, whereas pathological platelet adhesion is involved in various cardiovascular events. The underlying cause in cardiovascular events involves plaque rupture leading to subsequent platelet adhesion, activation,

Increased platelet reactivity as measured by plasma glycoprotein VI in gout
Patients with gout have an increased risk of cardiovascular events. The glycoprotein VI (GPVI) receptor is found exclusively on platelets and megakaryocytes, is proteolytically cleaved upon platelet activation, and detectable in plasma as soluble GPVI ...
