Platelet Toll-like receptor expression and activation induced by lipopolysaccharide and sepsis
Platelets and Toll-like receptor (TLR) signalling play a role in the immune response during sepsis. Although preclinical knowledge about the role of platelet TLR signalling is increasing, data during human sepsis are less abundant.

Platelet activation determines the severity of thrombocytopenia in dengue infection
Thrombocytopenia is common in patients with dengue virus (DENV) infections. With a focus on understanding the possible mechanism of thrombocytopenia in DENV infections we described a direct correlation between activation and depletion of platelets in ...

We aimed to investigate the effects of integrin αIIbβ3 inhibitor tirofiban on hallmarks of platelet activation, degranulation, and aggregation during its use to analyze activated but non-complexed platelets via flow cytometry.

Lipopolysaccharide as trigger of platelet aggregation via eicosanoid over-production [PDF]
The effect of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) on platelet aggregation is still controversial. We performed in vitro and ex vivo studies in controls and in patients with community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) to assess the effect of LPS on platelet activation (PA ...

Platelet interaction with bioactive lipids formed by mild oxidation of low-density lipoprotein [PDF]
Oxidation of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) generates pro-inflammatory and pro-thrombotic mediators that play a crucial role in cardiovascular and inflammatory diseases.

A subset of anti-HLA antibodies induces FcγRIIa-dependent platelet activation
HLA antibodies are associated with refractoriness to platelet transfusion, leading to rapid platelet clearance, sometimes coinciding with clinical side effects such as fever and chills.

Comparison of symmetrical hemodialysis catheters using computational fluid dynamics [PDF]
Purpose: Symmetric-tip dialysis catheters have become alternative devices because of low access recirculation and ease of tip positioning. Flow characteristics of three symmetric catheters were compared based on computational fluid dynamics (CFD) as they
