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.

Endogenous SIRT6 in platelets negatively regulates platelet activation and thrombosis
Thromboembolism resulting from platelet dysfunction constitutes a significant contributor to the development of cardiovascular disease. Sirtuin 6 (SIRT6), an essential NAD+-dependent enzyme, has been linked to arterial thrombosis when absent in ...

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.

GRK6 regulates the hemostatic response to injury through its rate-limiting effects on GPCR signaling in platelets. [PDF]
G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) mediate the majority of platelet activation in response to agonists. However, questions remain regarding the mechanisms that provide negative feedback toward activated GPCRs to limit platelet activation and thrombus ...

Potentiation of thrombus instability: a contributory mechanism to the effectiveness of antithrombotic medications [PDF]
© The Author(s) 2018The stability of an arterial thrombus, determined by its structure and ability to resist endogenous fibrinolysis, is a major determinant of the extent of infarction that results from coronary or cerebrovascular thrombosis.

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 ...

Intravascular tissue factor initiates coagulation via circulating microvesicles and platelets [PDF]
Although tissue factor (TF), the principial initiator of physiological coagulation and pathological thrombosis, has recently been proposed to be present in human blood, the functional significance and location of the intravascular TF is unknown.
