Molecular Pathogenesis of Inherited Platelet Dysfunction [PDF]
Inherited platelet function disorders (IPFD) are characterized by normal platelet count and morphology but impaired function due to pathogenic variants in genes encoding membrane receptors, granule constituents, or intracellular signaling proteins ...

Targeting macrophage endocytosis via platelet membrane coating for advanced osteoimmunomodulation
Summary: The identification, uptake, and clearance of nanoparticles (NPs) by phagocytes are critical in NP-based therapeutics. The cell membrane coating technique has recently emerged as an ideal surface modification approach to help NP bypass ...

The basement membrane protein nidogen-1 supports platelet adhesion and activation
The core structure of the extracellular basement membrane is made up of self-assembling networks of collagen and laminin which associate with each other through the bridging adapter proteins including the sulfated monomeric glycoprotein nidogen.

Platelet adhesion to the sub-endothelial matrix and damaged endothelium occurs through a multi-step process mediated in the initial phase by glycoprotein Ib binding to von Willebrand factor (vWF), which leads to the subsequent formation of a platelet ...

The role of neuraminidase 1 and 2 in glycoprotein Ibα-mediated integrin αIIbβ3 activation
Upon vascular injury, platelets adhere to von Willebrand Factor (VWF) via glycoprotein Ibα (GPIbα). GPIbα contains many glycans, capped by sialic acid. Sialic acid cleavage (desialylation) triggers clearance of platelets.

Antiplatelet antibody predicts platelet desialylation and apoptosis in immune thrombocytopenia
Immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) is a bleeding disorder caused by dysregulated B- and T- cell functions, which lead to platelet destruction. A well-recognized mechanism of ITP pathogenesis involves anti-platelet and anti-megakaryocyte antibodies ...
