Intercellular adhesion molecule-4 and CD36 are implicated in the abnormal adhesiveness of sickle cell SAD mouse erythrocytes to endothelium

open access: yesHaematologica, 2010
Background Abnormal adhesiveness of red blood cells to endothelium has been implicated in vaso-occlusive crisis of sickle cell disease. The present study examined whether the SAD mouse model exhibits the same abnormalities of red blood cell adhesion as ...

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.

Platelet adhesion in hypertension: Application of a novel assay of platelet adhesion

open access: yesAnnals of Medicine, 2005
The increased risk of thromboembolism in hypertension may be related to a prothrombotic or hypercoagulable state, with abnormalities in haemostasis and platelet function.To investigate the role of platelets in the pathogenesis of thrombosis in hypertension, we applied a novel new assay to detect and quantify the degree of platelet adhesion to a defined

Hematological changes in postmenopausal women

open access: yesNational Journal of Physiology, Pharmacy and Pharmacology, 2019
Background: Ovarian function declines subsequent to menopause. This can lead to undesirable alterations in metabolism, vascular endothelium function, and also fibrinolytic and coagulative properties of blood.

Translating proof-of-concept for platelet slip into improved antithrombotic therapeutic regimens

open access: yesPlatelets
Platelets are central to thrombosis. Research at the intersection of biological and physical sciences provides proof-of-concept for shear rate-dependent platelet slip at vascular stenosis and near device surfaces.

Microfluidic system for monitoring temporal variations of hemorheological properties and platelet adhesion in LPS-injected rats

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
Sepsis causes multiple organs failures and eventually death. Changes in blood constituents due to sepsis lead to alterations in hemorheological properties, and cell adhesiveness.

Thrombospondin-1-Derived Peptide RFYVVMWK Improves the Adhesive Phenotype of CD34 Cells from Atherosclerotic Patients with Type 2 Diabetes

open access: yesCell Transplantation, 2017
CD34 + progenitor cells are growing in use for vascular repair. However, in diabetic individuals with cardiovascular diseases, these cells have dysfunctional engraftment capabilities, which compromise their use for autologous cell therapy.

Degradation mechanism of the von Willebrand factor A2 domain by nattokinase

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Nattokinase, a natto‐derived protease, exhibits potent antithrombotic effects. This study demonstrates that nattokinase directly cleaves the von Willebrand factor (vWF) A2 domain in vitro. Unlike the native regulator ADAMTS13, nattokinase degrades folded vWF independently of shear stress.

EDNRB‐dependent endothelin signaling reduces proliferation and promotes proneural‐to‐mesenchymal transition in gliomas

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Glioma cells mainly express the endothelin receptor EDNRB, while EDNRA is restricted to a perivascular tumor subpopulation. Endothelin signaling reduces glioma cell proliferation while promoting migration and a proneural‐to‐mesenchymal transition associated with poor prognosis. This pathway activates Ca2+, K+, ERK, and STAT3 signalings and is regulated

CD47 promotes mitogen‐activated protein kinase and epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition molecular programs to drive prometastatic phenotypes in non‐small cell lung cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Beyond its role in immune evasion, this study identified that CD47 drives tumor‐intrinsic signaling in non‐small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Transcriptomic profiling and functional studies revealed that CD47 regulates cell adhesion, migration, and metastasis through an ERK–EMT signaling axis.
