Platelet Membrane Glycoproteins: A Historical Review [PDF]
The search for the components of the platelet surface that mediate platelet adhesion and platelet aggregation began for earnest in the late 1960s when electron microscopy demonstrated the presence of a carbohydrate-rich, negatively charged outer coat that was called the "glycocalyx." Progressively, electrophoretic procedures were developed that ...

Platelet Membrane Glycoprofiling in a PMM2-CDG Patient
Congenital disorders of glycosylation (CDG) are metabolic hereditary diseases caused by defects in the synthesis of glycoconjugates. CDG have been described in sugar-nucleotide biosynthesis and transporter, glycosyltransferases, vesicular transport, as ...

Two Arginine Residues of Streptococcus gordonii Sialic Acid-Binding Adhesin Hsa Are Essential for Interaction to Host Cell Receptors. [PDF]
Hsa is a large, serine-rich protein of Streptococcus gordonii DL1 that mediates binding to α2-3-linked sialic acid termini of glycoproteins, including platelet glycoprotein Ibα, and erythrocyte membrane protein glycophorin A, and band 3.

Platelet membrane glycoproteins: historical perspectives [PDF]
3–9. The function of blood platelets to prevent blood loss at injured sites in the vasculature depends largely on their capacity to adhere, aggregate, promote coagulation and secrete factors that induce vasoconstriction and recruit inflammatory cells. Produced in large numbers from megakaryocytes, platelets enter the circulation for 7–10 days primed to

Pathogenic mechanisms contributing to thrombocytopenia in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus
Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is an autoimmune condition developing thrombocytopenia in about 10–15% of cases, however, mechanisms leading to low platelet count were not deeply investigated in this illness.
