Effects of Physical (In)activity on Platelet Function
As platelet activation is closely related to the liberation of growth factors and inflammatory mediators, platelets play a central role in the development of CVD.

Platelets promote macrophage polarization toward pro-inflammatory phenotype and increase survival of septic mice [PDF]
We investigated the contribution of human platelets to macrophage effector properties in the presence of lipopolysaccharide (LPS), as well as the beneficial effects and time frame for platelet transfusion in septic animals.

Age-related changes in platelet function are more profound in women than in men
Age is a risk factor for cardiovascular disease (CVD), however the effect of age on platelet function remains unclear. Ideally, platelet function should be assayed under flow and shear conditions that occur in vivo.

Identification of novel molecular signatures of IgA nephropathy through an integrative -omics analysis [PDF]
IgA nephropathy (IgAN) is the most prevalent among primary glomerular diseases worldwide. Although our understanding of IgAN has advanced significantly, its underlying biology and potential drug targets are still unexplored.

Platelet signalling networks: pathways perturbation demonstrates differential sensitivity of ADP secretion and fibinogen binding. [PDF]
Platelet signalling responses to single agonists have been identified previously. However a model of the total platelet signalling network is still lacking.

Identification of a functional genetic variant driving racially dimorphic platelet gene expression of the thrombin receptor regulator, PCTP. [PDF]
Platelet activation in response to stimulation of the Protease Activated Receptor 4 (PAR4) receptor differs by race. One factor that contributes to this difference is the expression level of Phosphatidylcholine Transfer Protein (PCTP), a regulator of ...

Density functional theory for colloidal mixtures of hard platelets, rods, and spheres
A geometry-based density functional theory is presented for mixtures of hard spheres, hard needles and hard platelets; both the needles and the platelets are taken to be of vanishing thickness.
