Animal lectins as cell adhesion molecules [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
Protein-carbohydrate interaction is exploited in cell adhesion mechanisms besides the recognition of peptide motifs. The sugar code thus significantly contributes to the intriguing specificity of cellular selection of binding partners.

RAP GTPases and platelet integrin signaling

open access: yesPlatelets, 2019
Platelets are highly specialized cells that continuously patrol the vasculature to ensure its integrity (hemostasis). At sites of vascular injury, they are able to respond to trace amounts of agonists and to rapidly transition from an anti-adhesive ...

Inhibitors of Platelet Adhesion [PDF]

open access: yesCirculation, 2009
Platelet aggregation, in fundamental terms, is considered a biological end point that contributes to the occurrence of clinical events among patients with advanced atherosclerotic coronary artery disease. Acute coronary syndrome, including non–ST elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) and ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), accounts for ...

Flaxseed Prevents Leukocyte and Platelet Adhesion to Endothelial Cells in Experimental Atherosclerosis by Reducing sVCAM-1 and vWF

open access: yesThe Scientific World Journal, 2013
We studied the possible effect of flaxseed to prevent leukocytes and platelets adhesion to endothelial cells and to reduce soluble adhesion molecules (sVCAM-1) and endothelial integrity markers (vWF) in ovariectomized rats fed a high-fat diet.
