Human Platelet Protein Ubiquitylation and Changes following GPVI Activation [PDF]
AbstractPlatelet activators stimulate post-translational modification of signalling proteins to change their activity or their molecular interactions leading to signal propagation. One covalent modification is attachment of the small protein ubiquitin to lysine residues in target proteins.

Differential roles for the adapters Gads and LAT in platelet activation by GPVI and CLEC-2 [PDF]
Background: The adapter proteins SLP-76 and LAT have been shown to play critical roles in the activation of PLCc2 in platelets downstream of GPVI/FcRc and the C-type lectin receptor CLEC-2.

Platelets modulate cardiac remodeling via the collagen receptor GPVI after acute myocardial infarction [PDF]
IntroductionPlatelets play an important role in cardiovascular diseases. After acute myocardial infarction, platelets display enhanced activation and migrate into the infarct zone.

Association of polymorphisms of platelet receptors GPIa (807C>T), GPVI (13254T>C), and P2Y12 (34C>T and H1/H2 haplotype) with increased risk of periprocedural bleeding in patients undergoing coronary angiography/percutaneous coronary intervention [PDF]
Introduction: Periprocedural bleeding related to coronary angiography (CAG) or percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is associated with worse prognosis. Determining genetic variations associated with increased bleeding risk may help to identify high-

Structural characterization of a novel GPVI-nanobody complex reveals a biologically active domain-swapped GPVI dimer [PDF]
Abstract Glycoprotein VI (GPVI) is the major signaling receptor for collagen on platelets. We have raised 54 nanobodies (Nb), grouped into 33 structural classes based on their complementary determining region 3 loops, against recombinant GPVI-Fc (dimeric GPVI) and have characterized their ability to bind recombinant GPVI, resting and ...

Preparation of cold-stored platelets on-demand: A novel approach to inventory management. [PDF]
Abstract Background Cold‐stored platelets (CSP) are now being used to treat acute bleeding. However, as CSP are less suitable for prophylaxis, both room temperature (RT) platelets and CSP will be required, which complicates inventory management. The production of CSP “on‐demand” from RT platelets may be a desirable option.

mTOR regulates GPVI-mediated platelet activation [PDF]
Abstract Background Due to mTOR (mammalian/mechanistic target of rapamycin) gene-loss mice die during embryonic development, the role of mTOR in platelets has not been evaluated using gene knockout technology. Methods A mouse model with megakaryocyte/platelet-specific ...

AbstractCollagen has been proposed to bind to a unique epitope in dimeric glycoprotein VI (GPVI) and the number of GPVI dimers has been reported to increase upon platelet activation. However, in contrast, the crystal structure of GPVI in complex with collagen-related peptide (CRP) showed binding distinct from the site of dimerization.

In Vitro Comparison of Device-Induced Hemolysis, Platelet Defects, and von Willebrand Factor Degradation Between the HeartMate 2 and HeartMate 3 Pumps. [PDF]
This in vitro comparative study demonstrated that the HeartMate 3 pump has a superior overall hemocompatibility profile to the HeartMate 2 pump, underscoring the advantages of the maglev centrifugal pump design compared to the axial pump design. ABSTRACT Background Left ventricular assist devices (LVADs) have been utilized to maintain the circulatory ...
