Unique vascular protective properties of natural products: supplements or future main-line drugs with significant anti-atherosclerotic potential? [PDF]
, 2012 Natural health products (NHP) which include minerals, vitamins and herbal remedies are not generally considered by medical practitioners as conventional medicines and as such are not frequently prescribed by health centre’s as either main-line or ...

, 2017 Platelet adhesion is a critical functional component of blood platelets in pathophysiology and a current focus of drugs modulating platelet activity. In this chapter, we discuss platelet adhesion in terms of both basic science and clinical relevance, not only related to thrombosis and haemostasis, but also in terms of inflammation, infection, and ...

Alcohol‐induced altered glycans in human tracheal epithelial cells promote bacterial adhesion
FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.Alcohol induces altered glycans to promote bacteria adhesion. Heavy alcohol drinking is known to increase the risk of bacterial pneumonia. However, the link between alcohol levels and risk of infection remains underexplored. Recently, we found that alcohol induced α2‐6sialo mucin O‐glycans in human tracheobronchial epithelial cells, which mediated the ...

Adhesion Mechanisms in Platelet Function [PDF]
Circulation Research, 2007 Platelet adhesion is an essential function in response to vascular injury and is generally viewed as the first step during which single platelets bind through specific membrane receptors to cellular and extracellular matrix constituents of the vessel wall and tissues.

Aging and Cancer, EarlyView.This systematic review synthesizes prognostic models for survival and recurrence in resected non‐small cell lung cancer. While many models demonstrate moderate to good discrimination, few are externally validated and reporting quality is variable, limiting clinical applicability and highlighting the need for robust, transparent model development ...

Vitamin C inhibits platelet expression of CD40 ligand [PDF]
, 2005 Upon stimulation with agonists, platelets express CD40 ligand (CD40L), a transmembrane protein implicated in the initiation and progression of atherosclerotic disease. We have recently discovered that oxidative stress plays a major role in platelet CD40L

Platelet Adhesiveness after Blood Donation [PDF]
BMJ, 1971 Platelet adhesiveness to glass was measured in healthy blood donors at the time of and eight days after donating 500 ml of blood. By a whole blood method a highly significant increase was found whereas by a method using platelet-rich plasma with added adenosine diphosphate there was only a slightly significant increase.

Animal lectins as cell adhesion molecules [PDF]
, 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.
