Background: Previous studies have shown that thiol isomerases such as ERp46 positively regulate platelet function by reducing integrin αIIbβ3 disulfides, and the transmembrane thiol isomerase TMX1 negatively regulates integrin αIIbβ3 activation. However,

New insights into regulation of αIIbβ3 integrin signaling by filamin A
Background Filamin (FLN) regulates many cell functions through its scaffolding activity cross‐linking cytoskeleton and integrins. FLN was shown to inhibit integrin activity, but the exact mechanism remains unclear. Objectives The aim of this study was to

Many biotechnologies require direct contact between biomolecules and (semi)solid substrates. However, little information is available regarding site‐directed covalent surface immobilization of heterodimeric proteins.

This investigation addressed the paradox that disintegrins and small RGD-ligands readily bind to the resting αIIbβ3 integrin, while macromolecules with similar integrin recognition motifs require an activated, or primed, receptor.

Structural basis for distinctive recognition of fibrinogen γC peptide by the platelet integrin αIIbβ3 [PDF]
Hemostasis and thrombosis (blood clotting) involve fibrinogen binding to integrin αIIbβ3 on platelets, resulting in platelet aggregation. αvβ3 binds fibrinogen via an Arg-Asp-Gly (RGD) motif in fibrinogen's α subunit.

Lighting up αVβ6: Halotryptophan engineering converts an RGD scaffold into a modular αVβ6 ligand platform, enabling picomolar affinity and late‐stage functionalization. The resulting probes combine high selectivity with fluorescence for FACS and tumor imaging.

Integrin αIIbβ3 outside-in signaling
Integrin αIIbβ3 is a highly abundant heterodimeric platelet receptor that can transmit information bidirectionally across the plasma membrane, and plays a critical role in hemostasis and thrombosis. Upon platelet activation, inside-out signaling pathways

Abstract Background Integrin is an αβ heterodimeric receptor to the extracellular matrix; its binding to the matrix recruits focal adhesions to two NPxY motifs, the tyrosine phosphorylation sites in the cytoplasmic domain. Studies found that replacing tyrosines (Y) with phenylalanines (F) in the motif of β1 integrin displayed little developmental or ...

Current inhibitors of platelet integrin αIIbβ3 cause excessive bleeding, which limited their clinical use in cardiac patients. Here the authors design pure orthosteric αIIbβ3 inhibitors that prevent platelet aggregation and thrombosis without causing ...

Abstract Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is characterized by a lack of a specific targeted treatment and a complex, partially unexplored pathophysiology. Common comorbidities associated with HFpEF are hypertension, atrial fibrillation, obesity and diabetes.
