The actin binding proteins cortactin and HS1 are dispensable for platelet actin nodule and megakaryocyte podosome formation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
A dynamic, properly organised actin cytoskeleton is critical for the production and haemostatic function of platelets. The Wiskott Aldrich Syndrome protein (WASp) and Actin-Related Proteins 2 & 3 Complex (Arp2/3 complex) are critical mediators of ...

Cost-effectiveness of Platelet Function-Guided Strategy with Clopidogrel or Ticagrelor

open access: yesEuropean Cardiology Review, 2019
Some patients treated with dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) following acute coronary syndrome (ACS) can still exhibit heightened residual platelet reactivity (HRPR), which is potentially linked to adverse vascular outcomes.

Cobimetinib and trametinib inhibit platelet MEK but do not cause platelet dysfunction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The MEK inhibitors cobimetinib and trametinib are used in combination with BRAF inhibitors to treat metastatic melanoma but increase rates of hemorrhage relative to BRAF inhibitors alone.

Microfluidic flow chambers using reconstituted blood to model hemostasis and platelet transfusion in vitro [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Blood platelets prepared for transfusion gradually lose hemostatic function during storage. Platelet function can be investigated using a variety of (indirect) in vitro experiments, but none of these is as comprehensive as microfluidic flow chambers.

Platelets and galectins [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
A major function of platelets is keeping the vascular system intact. Platelet activation at sites of vascular injury leads to the formation of a hemostatic plug.

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 Function Tests [PDF]

open access: yesSeminars in Thrombosis and Hemostasis, 2016
Traditionally developed for diagnosis of bleeding disorders, platelet function assays have become increasingly used in basic research on platelet physiology, in phenotype-genotype associations in bleeding disorders, in drug development as surrogate endpoints of efficacy of new antiplatelet therapy, and to an extent, in the monitoring of antiplatelet ...

Screening for platelet function disorders with Multiplate and platelet function analyzer

open access: yesPlatelets, 2019
Light transmission aggregation (LTA) is the gold standard for the diagnosis of platelet function disorders (PFDs), but it is time-consuming and limited to specialized laboratories.

Normal platelet function [PDF]

open access: yesCancer and Metastasis Reviews, 2017
Platelets play an important role in the vessel. Following their formation from megakaryocytes, platelets exist in circulation for 5-7 days and primarily function as regulators of hemostasis and thrombosis. Following vascular insult or injury, platelets become activated in the blood resulting in adhesion to the exposed extracellular matrix underlying ...

Platelet Function and Valproate

open access: yesPediatric Neurology Briefs, 1999
The role of arachidonate metabolites in valproate-induced platelet dysfunction and hemorrhagic diathesis was investigated by ex vivo methods at the Albert Szent-Gyorgyi Medical University, Szeged, Hungary.
