Three-dimensional structure and cytokine distribution of platelet-rich fibrin [PDF]
Clinics, 2017 OBJECTIVES: 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 ...

Studies on the Biological Effects of Ozone: 10. Release of Factors from Ozonated Human Platelets [PDF]
Mediators of Inflammation, 1999 In 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), 2022 Random 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-Rich Plasma: Quantitative Assessment of Growth Factor Levels and Comparative Analysis of Activated and Inactivated Groups [PDF]
Archives of Plastic Surgery, 2013 BackgroundPlatelet-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.

PDGF-BB homodimer serum level – a good indicator of the severity of alcoholic liver cirrhosis
Annals of Agricultural and Environmental Medicine, 2020 Introduction Liver cirrhosis is a chronic disease in which progressive fibrosis is noted. This process leads to changed architectonics of the liver parenchyma and the appearance of regenerative nodules, all of which are caused by pathological activation ...
