Thrombin-induced events in non-platelet cells are mediated by the unique proteolytic mechanism established for the cloned platelet thrombin receptor. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
We recently isolated a cDNA clone encoding a functional platelet thrombin receptor that defined a unique mechanism of receptor activation. Thrombin cleaves its receptor's extracellular amino terminal extension, unmasking a new amino terminus that ...

Atherothrombosis and Oxidative Stress: Mechanisms and Management in Elderly [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Significance: The incidence of cardiovascular events (CVEs) increases with age, representing the main cause of death in an elderly population. Aging is associated with overproduction of reactive oxygen species (ROS), which may affect clotting and ...

Bioinspired Materials, Designs, and Manufacturing Strategies for Advanced Impact‐Resistant Helmets

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This review explores how bioinspired materials, structures, and manufacturing strategies transform helmet design to achieve enhanced impact resistance. Drawing inspiration from nacre, porcupine quills, beetle exoskeletons, and skull architectures, it highlights advances in auxetic lattices, nanocomposites, and functionally graded foams.

Genetic determinants of on-aspirin platelet reactivity: focus on the influence of PEAR1.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
BackgroundPlatelet aggregation during aspirin treatment displays considerable inter-individual variability. A genetic etiology likely exists, but it remains unclear to what extent genetic polymorphisms determine platelet aggregation in aspirin-treated ...

Receptors that Activate Platelets

open access: yesExperimental Biology and Medicine, 1991
This review highlights the increasing knowledge of the biochemistry, pathology, and cell and molecular biology of platelet receptors. A receptor for ADP has been identified using the affinity label FSBA as aggregin, a 100-kDa membrane protein responsible for shape change, aggregation, and exposure of fibrinogen binding sites.

The platelet-activating factor acetylhydrolase of mouse platelets

open access: yesBiochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Biomembranes, 1997
Platelet-activating factor (PAF) acetylhydrolases are a family of distinct enzymes with the common property of hydrolyzing and inactivating PAF. It has been shown that the structure and the biochemical behavior of these enzymes depend on their cellular origin.

Precise Quantification of Angiogenesis in 3D Biomaterials Using in Vitro CAM Models: Enhancing 3Rs in Research and Minimizing in Vivo Dependency

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The study develops elastin–fibrin scaffolds and evaluates angiogenesis using the chorioallantoic membrane (CAM) model. Advanced imaging with confocal microscopy and Indocyanine Green dye enables precise 3D quantification of vascular networks. Findings demonstrate superior microvessel visualization compared to micro‐CT using Microfil and Optiray 350 ...

Enhancing CoFe Catalysts with V2CTX MXene‐Derived Materials for Anion Exchange Membrane Electrolyzers

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
MXene dervied CoFe composites show increased initial Oxygen Evolution Reaction (OER) activity compared to the pure CoFe and MXene in an Anion Exchange Membrane device. Vanadium vacancies in the MXene plays a role in increased OER activity and hinders Fe leaching in the AEM device over using the pure V2C MXene as a support material for the CoFe ...
