HIV-positive patients are at increased risk for coronary artery disease (CAD); changes in platelet activation may play a role. This study was performed to determine if levels of soluble glycoprotein VI (sGPVI), a platelet-specific marker of activation ...

Abstract The snake venom C-type lectin alboaggregin A (or 50-kd alboaggregin) from Trimeresurus albolabris was previously shown to be a platelet glycoprotein (GP) Ib agonist. However, investigations of the signal transduction induced in platelets showed patterns of tyrosine phosphorylation that were different from those of other GPIb ...

The basement membrane protein nidogen-1 supports platelet adhesion and activation
The core structure of the extracellular basement membrane is made up of self-assembling networks of collagen and laminin which associate with each other through the bridging adapter proteins including the sulfated monomeric glycoprotein nidogen.

A compound heterozygous mutation in glycoprotein VI in a patient with a bleeding disorder [PDF]
The physiological relevance of the collagen glycoprotein VI (GPVI) receptor was known prior to its recognition as a platelet membrane receptor as several patients lacking GPVI as a consequence of autoantibody inhibition presented with a mild bleeding diathesis.

Hinokitiol is a novel glycoprotein VI antagonist on human platelets
Hinokitiol (4-isopropyl-tropolone) is a bioactive compound with various pharmacological activities that is found in the wood of cupressaceous plants. Platelet activation plays an important role in thrombogenesis. In our previous study, hinokitiol specifically inhibited collagen-induced platelet aggregation ex vivo and prolonged thrombogenesis in vivo ...

The role of Nox1 and Nox2 in GPVI-dependent platelet activation and thrombus formation
Background: Activation of the platelet-specific collagen receptor, glycoprotein (GP) VI, induces intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) production; however the relevance of ROS to GPVI-mediated platelet responses remains unclear.

ADPase CD39 Fused to Glycoprotein VI‐Fc Boosts Local Antithrombotic Effects at Vascular Lesions
BackgroundGPVI (Glycoprotein VI) is the essential platelet collagen receptor in atherothrombosis. Dimeric GPVI‐Fc (Revacept) binds to GPVI binding sites on plaque collagen. As expected, it did not increase bleeding in clinical studies.
