Three-dimensional structure and cytokine distribution of platelet-rich fibrin [PDF]
Clinics, 2017OBJECTIVES: Previous reports have revealed that several cytokines (including platelet-derived growth factor-BB, transforming growth factors-β1 and insulin-like growth factor-1) can enhance the rate of bone formation and synthesis of extracellular matrix ...

Induction of platelet-derived growth factor A-chain and c-myc gene expressions by angiotensin II in cultured rat vascular smooth muscle cells. [PDF]
Journal of Clinical Investigation, 1989Recently, angiotensin II (Ang II) has been shown to cause hypertrophy of cultured quiescent rat aortic smooth muscle (RASM) cells. This observation along with the demonstration of angiotensinogen mRNA in the vessel wall has led us to postulate a role for

Studies on the Biological Effects of Ozone: 10. Release of Factors from Ozonated Human Platelets [PDF]
Mediators of Inflammation, 1999In a previous work we have shown that heparin, in the presence of ozone (O3), promotes a dose-dependent platelet aggregation, while after Ca2+ chelation with citrate, platelet aggregation is almost negligible.

Platelet-derived growth factor signaling in pericytes promotes hypothalamic inflammation and obesity [PDF]
Molecular MedicineBackground Pericytes are a vital component of the blood–brain barrier, and their involvement in acute inflammation was recently suggested. However, it remains unclear whether pericytes contribute to hypothalamic chronic inflammation and energy metabolism

Growth factors of random butterfly matrices and the stability of avoiding pivoting [PDF]
SIAM Journal on Matrix Analysis and Applications, Volume 44, Issue 3 (2023), 2022Random butterfly matrices were introduced by Parker in 1995 to remove the need for pivoting when using Gaussian elimination. The growing applications of butterfly matrices have often eclipsed the mathematical understanding of how or why butterfly matrices are able to accomplish these given tasks.

Platelet-derived transforming growth factor-β1 promotes keratinocyte proliferation in cutaneous wound healing. [PDF]
, 2020Platelets are a recognised potent source of transforming growth factor-β1 (TGFβ1), a cytokine known to promote wound healing and regeneration by stimulating dermal fibroblast proliferation and extracellular matrix deposition.

Platelet-Rich Plasma: Quantitative Assessment of Growth Factor Levels and Comparative Analysis of Activated and Inactivated Groups [PDF]
Archives of Plastic Surgery, 2013BackgroundPlatelet-rich plasma (PRP) has more concentrated platelets than normal plasma (approximately 150-400×103 cell/dL). Platelets excrete several growth factors and cytokines that are associated with the healing and regeneration process.
