Quinonoid dihydropteridine reductase, a tetrahydrobiopterin-recycling enzyme, contributes to 5-hydroxytryptamine-associated platelet aggregation in mice

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2022
Quinonoid dihydropteridine reductase (QDPR) regenerates tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4), which is an essential cofactor for catecholamine and serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, 5-HT) biosynthesis.

Myricetin, the main flavonoid in Syzygium cumini leaf, is a novel inhibitor of platelet thiol isomerases PDI and ERp5 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Background: Flavonoids have been characterized as a prominent class of compounds to treat thrombotic diseases through the inhibition of thiol isomerases. Syzygium cumini is a flavonoid-rich medicinal plant that contains myricetin and gallic acid.

Optimized tool for evaluation of platelet function measured by impedance aggregometry

open access: yesPlatelets, 2021
Platelet aggregation measured by impedance aggregometry is highly dependent on platelet count. We previously developed a tool to interpret impedance aggregometry based on the strong linear correlation between platelet counts and platelet aggregation at ...

Thrombin-induced platelet aggregation −effect of dabigatran using automated platelet aggregometry−

open access: yesPlatelets, 2020
Dabigatran, a direct oral thrombin inhibitor, has two therapeutic effects: anticoagulation; and antiplatelet activity. In the clinical field, evaluation of the effect of dabigatran on thrombin-induced platelet aggregation is difficult because of fibrin ...

The extracellular Ero1α/PDI electron transport system regulates platelet function by increasing glutathione reduction potential

open access: yesRedox Biology, 2022
Protein disulfide isomerase (PDI), an oxidoreductase, possesses two vicinal cysteines in the -Cys-Gly-His-Cys-motif that either form a disulfide bridge (S–S) or exist in a sulfhydryl form (-SH), forming oxidized or reduced PDI, respectively. PDI has been

High Glucose, But Not Testosterone, Increases Platelet Aggregation Mediated by Endothelial Cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Endothelial cells inhibit platelet aggregation by releasing thromboregulators, such as prostacyclin and nitric oxide. Male subject is a traditional risk factor for cardiovascular diseases.

Effects of High Flavanol Dark Chocolate on Cardiovascular Function and Platelet Aggregation. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Regular consumption of chocolate and cocoa products has been linked to reduced cardiovascular mortality. This study compared the effects of high flavanol dark chocolate (HFDC; 1064mg flavanols/day for 6 weeks) and low flavanol dark chocolate (LFDC; 88mg ...

Platelet Biochemistry and Morphology after Cryopreservation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Platelet cryopreservation has been investigated for several decades as an alternative to room temperature storage of platelet concentrates. The use of dimethylsulfoxide as a cryoprotectant has improved platelet storage and cryopreserved concentrates can ...
