Bioactive Natural Products in Cardiovascular Disease: Focus on Thrombotic Events

Phytotherapy Research, EarlyView.
An overview of the role of natural products (NP) in cardiovascular disease prevention, highlighting key mechanisms of action: including antiplatelet, antithrombotic, anti‐inflammatory, and antioxidant effects. Additionally, it illustrates the integration of diet–drug interactions, nutritional epigenetics, and the role of artificial intelligence in ...

Full-Length αIIbβ3 Cryo-EM Structure Reveals Intact Integrin Initiate-Activation Intrinsic Architecture [PDF]

Integrin αIIbβ3 is the key receptor regulating platelet retraction and accumulation and a proven drug-target for antithrombotic therapies. Here we resolve the cryoEM structures of the full-length αIIbβ3, which covers three distinct states along the ...

Targeting the CD47–SIRPα phagocytic checkpoint in cancer: Biology, translational opportunities, and next‐generation therapeutic strategies

Smart Molecules, EarlyView.
The CD47–SIRPα axis has emerged as a critical innate immune checkpoint that suppresses macrophage‐mediated phagocytosis through a canonical “don't eat me” signal and enables tumor immune evasion. We comprehensively summarize the structural and biological features of CD47 and the molecular mechanisms underlying CD47‐mediated regulation of phagocytosis ...

Thiol isomerase ERp18 enhances platelet activation and arterial thrombosis

Research and Practice in Thrombosis and Haemostasis
Background: Thiol isomerases regulate the thiol-disulfide exchange of functional proteins in cells. Using genetically modified mouse models and inhibitors, we and others demonstrated that 7 thiol isomerases (ERp57, protein diisulfide isomerase, ERp72 ...

Kindlin supports platelet integrin αIIbβ3 activation by interacting with paxillin

, 2017
Kindlins play an important role in supporting integrin activation by cooperating with talin; however, the mechanistic details remain unclear. Here, we disclosed that kindlins directly interacted with paxillin and this interaction could support integrin ...

Evolutionary Mechanisms of Coagulation Factors in Cetaceans During Aquatic Adaptation

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Compared with Bos taurus, T. truncatus showed shorter prothrombin time and thrombin time but prolonged activated partial thromboplastin time, indicating pathway‐specific remodeling of coagulation. Evolutionary analyses identified 18 positively selected genes and accelerated F11 evolution, while functional assays revealed increased coagulation factor ...

Rare Bleeding Disorders and Bleeding Disorder of Unknown Cause: Current Understanding and Recent Developments

Haemophilia, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rare bleeding disorders (RBDs) represent a diverse group of inherited conditions involving coagulation factors or platelets. These conditions, such as Glanzmann thrombasthenia (GT) or severe coagulation factor deficiencies, are uncommon. In contrast, bleeding disorder of unknown cause (BDUC) is a diagnosis of exclusion without an identifiable ...

On the Activation of Integrin αIIbβ3: Outside-in and Inside-out Pathways [PDF]

, 2013
Integrin αIIbβ3 is a member of the integrin family of transmembrane proteins present on the plasma membrane of platelets. Integrin αIIbβ3 is widely known to regulate the process of thrombosis via activation at its cytoplasmic side by talin and ...
