Inhibition by cardiolipins of platelet‐activating factor‐induced rabbit platelet activation
AbstractEvidence is presented that cardiolipin, a naturally occurring phospholipid, inhibits the aggregatory effect of platelet‐activating factor (paf) on rabbit plateletsin vitro. Bovine heart cardiolipin was shown to inhibit the aggregation of washed rabbit platelets induced by 1×10−10 M and 2×10−10 M paf with IC50 values (doses for half‐maximal ...

Granulocyte-activating mediators (GRAM) [PDF]
In the present study we investigated the capability of human epidermal cells to generate granulocyte-activating mediators (GRAM). It could be shown that human epidermal cells as well as an epidermoid carcinoma cell line (A431) produce an epidermal cell ...

PANoptosis in the pathogenesis of myelodysplastic syndromes
PANoptosis, a combination of three types of programmed cell death, is mediated by a large protein complex called a PANoptosome. In healthy bone marrow hematopoietic cells, PANoptosis is restricted by inhibitory signaling. In MDS, bone marrow cells become sensitive to the PANoptotic stimuli due to the aberrant inactivation of inhibitory signaling or ...

The factor VII activating protease G511E (Marburg) variant and cardiovascular risk [PDF]
A previous study had shown a strong relationship between a variant in factor VII activating protease (FSAP G511E) and advanced carotid atheroma. In-vitro, the variant has reduced fibrinolytic but normal pro-coagulant activity, which may constitute a ...

Targeting the EpCAM‐AXL axis to overcome drug resistance in lung cancer
Lung cancer cells often evade therapy by hijacking signaling pathways. We reveal that cleaved EpCAM (sEpCAM) stabilizes the oncogenic protein AXL, driving NF‐κB and STAT3‐mediated chemoresistance. This EpCAM‐AXL axis identifies a high‐risk patient subset with poor prognosis.

Eosinophil Migration in Atopic Dermatitis I: Increased Migratory Responses to N-Formyl-Methionyl-Leucyl-Phenylalanine, Neutrophil-Activating Factor, Platelet-Activating Factor, and Platelet Factor 4 [PDF]
Eosinophil granular protein deposits have been demonstrated in lesional atopic dermatitis skin. This suggests active tissue infiltration of eosinophils.

IGF2 knockout reduces but does not abolish osteosarcoma growth in vitro and in vivo
To test whether endogenous IGF2 promotes osteosarcoma growth, IGF2 was knocked out in Saos2 cells via CRISPR‐Cas9. KO cells showed reduced proliferation in vitro, and knockout xenografts in mice reached only ~25% of wild‐type tumor volume. Insulin‐like growth factor 2 (IGF2) is implicated in osteosarcoma, but direct functional evidence of its role is ...

The role of platelet-derived growth factor in radiation injury to the lower urinary tract [PDF]
MD ResApproximately half of all patients diagnosed with cancer will receive radiotherapy as a part of the management of their tumours. Radiotherapy allows organ sparing treatment but it is associated with a number of acute and late unwanted effects ...
