An endogenous inhibitor of nitric oxide synthase regulates endothelial adhesiveness for monocytes [PDF]
OBJECTIVESWe sought to determine whether asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA) inhibits nitric oxide (NO) elaboration in cultured human endothelial cells and whether this is associated with the activation of oxidant-sensitive signaling mediating endothelial

Development of an In Situ Printing System With Human Platelet Lysate-Based Bio-Adhesive to Treat Corneal Perforations. [PDF]
PURPOSE: Corneal perforation is a clinical emergency that can result in blindness. Currently corneal perforations are treated either by cyanoacrylate glue which is toxic to corneal cells, or by using commercial fibrin glue for small perforations.

Activated platelets mediate inflammatory signaling by regulated interleukin 1β synthesis [PDF]
Platelets release preformed mediators and generate eicosanoids that regulate acute hemostasis and inflammation, but these anucleate cytoplasts are not thought to synthesize proteins or cytokines, or to influence inflammatory responses over time ...

Clinical studies of beta-thromboglobulin [PDF]
Beta-thromboglobulin is a platelet specific protein of molecular weight 35,000, stored in the alpha granules and released during aggregation. Its precise function is unknown but it may act as a 'packing protein' in the alpha granules.
