ROS in platelet biology: Functional aspects and methodological insights [PDF]
© 2020 by the authors. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) and mitochondria play a pivotal role in regulating platelet functions. Platelet activation determines a drastic change in redox balance and in platelet metabolism.

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 ...

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.

Low‐grade endotoxemia and platelet activation in cirrhosis
Patients with cirrhosis may display impaired or enhanced platelet activation, but the reasons for these equivocal findings are unclear. We investigated if bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS) is implicated in platelet activation. In a cross‐sectional study,

Perivascular niche cells sense thrombocytopenia and activate hematopoietic stem cells in an IL-1 dependent manner [PDF]
Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) residing in specialized niches in the bone marrow are responsible for the balanced output of multiple short-lived blood cell lineages in steady-state and in response to different challenges. However, feedback mechanisms by

Anti-platelet factor 4/polyanion antibodies mediate a new mechanism of autoimmunity [PDF]
Antibodies recognizing complexes of the chemokine platelet factor 4 (PF4-CXCL4) and polyanions (P) opsonize PF4-coated bacteria hereby mediating bacterial host defense. A subset of these antibodies may activate platelets after binding to PF4-heparin complexes, causing the prothrombotic adverse drug reaction heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT).

Heterotrimeric G-protein subunit Gαi2 contributes to agonist-sensitive apoptosis and degranulation in murine platelets [PDF]
Gαi2, a heterotrimeric G-protein subunit, regulates various cell functions including ion channel activity, cell differentiation, proliferation and apoptosis.

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.

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.
