Protease-activated receptor 1 mediates thrombin-dependent, cell-mediated renal inflammation in crescentic glomerulonephritis. [PDF]
Protease-activated receptor (PAR)-1 is a cellular receptor for thrombin that is activated after proteolytic cleavage. The contribution of PAR-1 to inflammatory cell-mediated renal injury was assessed in murine crescentic glomerulonephritis (GN).

Hemodialysis membrane-related neutrophil dysfunctions and pentoxifylline - a pilot study [PDF]
Hemodialysis treatment is associated with activation of neutrophil granulocytes. Pentoxifylline has been shown to inhibit neutrophil activation in vitro and in vivo.

Production of platelet-activating factor in slugs.
The land slug, Incilaria bilineata, was shown to contain a large amount of 1-O-alkyl-2-acyl (long chain)-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine, which accounts for as much as 47% of the choline glycerophospholipid fraction. Since this unique either phospholipid has

Potentiation of thrombus instability: a contributory mechanism to the effectiveness of antithrombotic medications [PDF]
© The Author(s) 2018The stability of an arterial thrombus, determined by its structure and ability to resist endogenous fibrinolysis, is a major determinant of the extent of infarction that results from coronary or cerebrovascular thrombosis.

Platelet lysate-derived neuropeptide y influences migration and angiogenesis of human adipose tissue-derived stromal cells [PDF]
Neuropeptide Y (NPY), a powerful neurotransmitter of the central nervous system, is a key regulator of angiogenesis and biology of adipose depots. Intriguingly, its peripheral vascular and angiogenic powerful activity is strictly associated to platelets,
