Platelet Function in Aging [PDF]
Aging is associated with an increased incidence of cardiovascular disease and thrombosis. Platelets play a major role in maintaining hemostasis and in thrombus formation, making them a key player in thrombotic disorders.

Corrigendum: The Effect of a Simulated Commercial Flight Environment With Hypoxia and Low Humidity on Clotting, Platelet, and Endothelial Function in Participants With Type 2 Diabetes – A Cross-Over Study [PDF]
Aims: To determine if clotting, platelet, and endothelial function were affected by simulated short-haul commercial air flight conditions (SF) in participants with type 2 diabetes (T2DM) compared to controls. Methods: 10 participants with T2DM (7 females,

Platelet Membrane Receptor Proteolysis: Implications for Platelet Function
The activities of adhesion and signaling receptors in platelets are controlled by several mechanisms. An important way of regulation is provided by proteolytic cleavage of several of these receptors, leading to either a gain or a loss of platelet ...

Aquaporins in platelet function
Structurally, aquaporins (AQPs) are small channel proteins with monomers of ~ 30 kDa that are assembled as tetramers to form pores on cell membranes. Aquaporins mediate the conduction of water but at times also small solutes including glycerol across ...

Platelet function defects [PDF]
Summary. Inherited defects of platelet function are a heterogeneous group of disorders that can result in bleeding symptoms ranging from mild bruising to severe mucocutaneous haemorrhage. These defects may be classified according to their effect on the various steps of platelet microthrombi formation including initiation, extension and cohesion, or ...

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