High Mean Platelet Volume and Mean Platelet Volume/Platelet Ratio Predict Mortality for COVID-19 Patients in Intensive Care Unit

open access: yes, 2022
Background: Mean platelet volume to platelet count ratio can be a new marker of mortality in critical COVID-19 cases in intensive care unit to retrospectively examine the factors predicting death rate in COVID-19 cases. Methods: 106 patients ...

Degradation mechanism of the von Willebrand factor A2 domain by nattokinase

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Nattokinase, a natto‐derived protease, exhibits potent antithrombotic effects. This study demonstrates that nattokinase directly cleaves the von Willebrand factor (vWF) A2 domain in vitro. Unlike the native regulator ADAMTS13, nattokinase degrades folded vWF independently of shear stress.

Diagnostic implication of mean platelet volume in thrombocytopenia

open access: yesMedical Journal of Dr. D.Y. Patil University, 2017
Background: A well-known cause of thrombocytopenia is peripheral platelet destruction in which the circulating platelets are premature and large. Many times a bone marrow examination is conducted to find out the etiology of thrombocytopenia.

Mean platelet volume-to-platelet count ratio after elective cardiac surgical procedures is superior in reflecting platelets metabolic hyperactivity compared to other routine morphological platelet indices: A preliminary report

open access: yesCardiology Journal, 2023
BACKGROUND: Excessive metabolic excitation of platelets after cardiac procedures may be related to some adverse events but assessment of their metabolic activity is not routine.

ABL kinase‐dependent phosphorylation of SH proteins promotes their direct interaction with CRK family SH2 domains

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
CT10 regulator of kinase (CRK) and CRK‐Like (CRKL) are signaling adaptors driving cell adhesion, motility, differentiation, and proliferation. SH2‐domain containing (SH) proteins are enriched in YXXP motifs which when phosphorylated create preferred binding sites for CRK family SH2 domains.

Relationship between platelet counts, mean platelet volume, platecrit and Beta Thalassemia Carriers

open access: yesJournal of Contemporary Medicine, 2020
Aim: β-thalassemia carriers (BTC) is generally asymptomatic;however, in clinical practice, there is hypochromic microcytic mildanemia caused by a hereditary reduction in beta globin synthesis.In the literature, there is also some information about ...

EDNRB‐dependent endothelin signaling reduces proliferation and promotes proneural‐to‐mesenchymal transition in gliomas

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Glioma cells mainly express the endothelin receptor EDNRB, while EDNRA is restricted to a perivascular tumor subpopulation. Endothelin signaling reduces glioma cell proliferation while promoting migration and a proneural‐to‐mesenchymal transition associated with poor prognosis. This pathway activates Ca2+, K+, ERK, and STAT3 signalings and is regulated

Identifying transcription factors controlling the basal expression of human MRP4 highlights a substantial role for Sp1

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The MRP4 transporter exports several drugs and signaling molecules. Here, we identified key promoter elements regulating basal MRP4 expression. Using reporter assays, we defined a conserved region with essential Sp1 and contributory Ets sites, which controlled basal MRP4 expression.

Developmental and Epileptic Encephalopathy due to Biallelic Pathogenic Variants in PIGM

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective PIGM encodes a critical enzyme in the glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)‐anchor biosynthesis pathway. While promoter‐region mutations in PIGM have been associated with a relatively mild phenotype characterized by portal vein thrombosis and absence seizures, recent evidence suggests that coding‐region mutations result in a more severe

Mean Platelet Volume in Women with Gestational Diabetes

open access: yesEndocrinology Research and Practice, 2016
Purpose: Mean platelet volume (MPV) is an indicator of platelet activation which plays an important role in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis. The purpose of this study was to compare MPV values in patients with previous gestational diabetes (pGDM ...
