Platelets and Anti-platelet Therapy
Journal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2003 Platelets play a central role in the hemostatic process and consequently are similarly involved in the pathological counterpart, thrombosis. They adhere to various subendothelial proteins, exposed either by injury or disease, and subsequently become activated by the thrombogenic surface or locally produced agonists.

Cobimetinib and trametinib inhibit platelet MEK but do not cause platelet dysfunction [PDF]
, 2018 The MEK inhibitors cobimetinib and trametinib are used in combination with BRAF inhibitors to treat metastatic melanoma but increase rates of hemorrhage relative to BRAF inhibitors alone.

Haematologica, 2020 Platelet adhesion to the sub-endothelial matrix and damaged endothelium occurs through a multi-step process mediated in the initial phase by glycoprotein Ib binding to von Willebrand factor (vWF), which leads to the subsequent formation of a platelet ...

Human platelet activation by Escherichia coli: roles for FcγRIIA and integrin αIIbβ3 [PDF]
, 2016 Gram-negative Escherichia coli cause diseases such as sepsis and hemolytic uremic syndrome in which thrombotic disorders can be found. Direct platelet–bacterium interactions might contribute to some of these conditions; however, mechanisms of human ...

The actin binding proteins cortactin and HS1 are dispensable for platelet actin nodule and megakaryocyte podosome formation [PDF]
, 2016 A dynamic, properly organised actin cytoskeleton is critical for the production and haemostatic function of platelets. The Wiskott Aldrich Syndrome protein (WASp) and Actin-Related Proteins 2 & 3 Complex (Arp2/3 complex) are critical mediators of ...

Expression of Regulatory Platelet MicroRNAs in Patients with Sickle Cell Disease [PDF]
, 2013 Background: Increased platelet activation in sickle cell disease (SCD) contributes to a state of hypercoagulability and confers a risk of thromboembolic complications.
