The effects of signal transducer and activator of transcription three mutations on human platelets
Involvement of signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) in inflammation is well known. Recently, a role for STAT3 in platelet activation and platelet production has been suggested.

Impact of diabetes on platelet activation in different manifestations of atherosclerosis
BACKGROUND: Atherosclerosis affects many patients with type 2 diabetes. Both are associated with platelet activation, but it remains unclear how diabetes contributes to, or even enhances, platelet activation in patients with atherosclerosis.

Effect of phosphodiesterase inhibitors on platelet function
Phosphodiesterase enzymes (PDEs) play a pivotal role in regulating platelet activity by modulating intracellular levels of cAMP and cGMP. Modulation of PDE-2, -3 and -5 activity by suitable inhibitors has been found to reduce platelet activity, and thus ...

Underlying mechanism and specific prevention of hemolysis-induced platelet activation
Thromboembolic complications significantly impair the outcome of hemolytic disorders. We hypothesized that red cell adenosine diphosphate (ADP) release results in significant platelet activation in hemolysis and that this prothrombotic state can be ...

Platelet activation via dynamic conformational changes of von Willebrand factor under shear.
Shear-induced conformational changes of von Willebrand factor (VWF) play an important role in platelet activation. A novel approach describing VWF unfolding on the platelet surface under dynamic shear stress is proposed.

Platelet activation determines angiopoietin-1 and VEGF levels in malaria: implications for their use as biomarkers. [PDF]
INTRODUCTION: The angiogenic proteins angiopoietin (Ang)-1, Ang-2 and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) are regulators of endothelial inflammation and integrity.
