Platelets stimulate airway smooth muscle cell proliferation through mechanisms involving 5-lipoxygenase and reactive oxygen species [PDF]
Continuous recruitment and inappropriate activity of platelets in the airways may contribute to airway remodeling, a characteristic feature of inflammatory airway diseases that includes increased proliferation of the smooth muscle. The aim of the present

A multifunctional polymer layer with amide and imidazolium groups simultaneously suppresses dendrite growth and hydrogen evolution in Zn‐ion batteries. By providing Zn2+ binding sites and forming a confined‐water domain that acts as a coordination bridge, it boosts single‐ion conductivity and stability, enabling 4000 stable cycles in Zn‐I2 full cells ...

Control of Bacterial Attachment on Macroporous PDMS/Paraffin SLIPS With Varying Lubricant Viscosity
Slippery liquid‐infused porous surfaces (SLIPS) prepared from macroporous PDMS, infused with medical‐grade paraffins, were systematically investigated regarding the correlation of viscosity, surface corrugation, bulk porosity, and bacterial resistance. Substrate porosity was found to dominate lubricant stabilization and the antifouling activity.

Unveiling Thrombocytopenic Disorders: The Role of Reticulated Platelets [PDF]
Background: Thrombocytopenic disorders are a wide-ranging group of diseases and ailments that cause a decrease in platelet count. Diagnosing these disorders can be difficult because they often have similar symptoms and causes.

Immature dense granules in platelets from mice with platelet storage pool disease [PDF]
Mepacrine uptake into platelets and bone marrow megakaryocytes was analyzed to further characterize the dense granule defects in a group of seven mouse pigment mutants that have characteristics of platelet storage pool disease (SPD). In contrast to our previous studies using electron microscopy, this method revealed that all mutants had normal numbers ...

The phenotype of cryopreserved platelets influences the formation of platelet-leukocyte aggregates in an in vitro model. [PDF]
Cryopreservation significantly alters the phenotype of platelets; generating distinct subpopulations, which may influence the formation of platelet leukocyte aggregates (PLA). PLAs are immunomodulatory and have been associated with transfusion-associated
