GPVI and the not so eager cleaver [PDF]
Platelets control their responsiveness, in part, by shedding adhesion and signaling receptors from their surface. The molecular mechanism by which this occurs, however,is incompletely understood. In this issue of Blood, Bender and colleagues make judicious use of mice genetically deficient in selected candidate proteases to shed new light on the ...

Glycoprotein VI (GPVI) has been proposed as a promising antiplatelet target, because its blockade prevents experimental thrombosis without impairing hemostasis. The objective of this study was to develop a preclinical tool to evaluate the role of human GPVI (hGPVI) in various models of thrombosis and to screen anti-GPVI compounds.

The search is on for natural regulators of platelet reactivity. In this issue of Blood, Trifiro and colleagues confirm that the low frequency isoform of platelet GPVI (VIb) attenuates ligand-mediated signal transduction and dampens down platelet reactivity with collagen while not affecting GPVI receptor copy number.

Platelet GPVI: a target for antithrombotic therapy?!
Trends in Pharmacological Sciences, 2012Platelet activation is a key step in the pathogenesis of ischemic cardio- and cerebrovascular diseases, which represent the leading causes of death and severe disability worldwide. Although existing antiplatelet drugs have proved beneficial in the clinic, their use is limited by their inherent effect on primary hemostasis, making the identification of ...

Generation of Transgenic Mice for Platelet-Specific Expression of Human GPVI From GPVI-Knockout Mice
Blood, 2011Abstract Abstract 1139 Transgenic mice with human gene knock-in (KI) in platelets can be very useful tools for the evaluation of anti-thrombotic therapeutics in vivo, as many murine thrombosis models have been established and well-characterized.

GPVI: no magic bullet for thrombosis
Blood, 2006Comment on Mangin et al, page The platelet collagen receptor GPVI has been considered an attractive therapeutic target to treat human cardiovascular diseases. An article by Mangin and colleagues in this issue of Blood reveals that loss of GPVI does not produce the expected dramatic effect on arterial thrombosis in mice.

SummaryThe Extracellular Matrix Metalloproteinase Inducer (EMMPRIN, CD147, basigin) is an immunoglobulin-like receptor expressed in various cell types. During cellular interactions homotypic EMMPRIN-EMMPRIN interactions are known to induce the synthesis of matrix metalloproteinases. Recently, we have identified EMMPRIN as a novel receptor on platelets.

Highly potent anti-human GPVI monoclonal antibodies derived from GPVI knockout mouse immunization
Thrombosis Research, 2007Recent progress in the understanding of thrombus formation has suggested an important role for glycoprotein (GP) VI in this process. To clarify the exact role in detail, it is necessary to use specific, high affinity inhibitory antibodies. However, possibly due to the conserved structure of GPVI among species, it has been difficult to obtain potent ...
