Circulating microRNAs as biomarkers and mediators of platelet activation
Platelets are essential mediators of physiological hemostasis and pathological thrombosis. Currently available tests and markers of platelet activation did not prove successful in guiding treatment decisions for patients with cardiovascular disease ...

The relationship between fractional flow reserve, platelet reactivity and platelet leukocyte complexes in stable coronary artery disease. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The presence of stenoses that significantly impair blood flow and cause myocardial ischemia negatively affects prognosis of patients with stable coronary artery disease.

Background: High on-treatment platelet reactivity or its equivalent—resistance to the antiplatelet agent—significantly reduces the efficacy of the therapy, contributing to a negative impact on stroke course.

Biologic Nanoparticles and Platelet Reactivity [PDF]
Nanosized particles (NPs) enriched in hydroxyapatite and protein isolated from calcified human tissue accelerate occlusion of endothelium-denuded arteries when injected intravenously into rabbits. Since platelet aggregation and secretory processes participate in normal hemostasis, thrombosis and vascular remodeling, experiments were designed to ...

Is platelet inhibition due to thienopyridines increased in elderly patients, in patients with previous stroke and patients with low body weight as a possible explanation of an increased bleeding risk? [PDF]
Background The TRITON-TIMI 38 study has identified three subgroups of patients with a higher risk of bleeding during treatment with the thienopyridine prasugrel: patients with a history of stroke or transient ischaemic attack (TIA), patients ≥75 years ...

PrasugRel versus adjusted high-dose clopidogrel in patients with high on- clopidogrel platelet reactivity: the PECS-HPR randomized, multicenter study [PDF]
background: Repeated loading doses (LD) of clopidogrel were shown to effectively overcome high on-clopidogrel platelet reactivity (HPR); however, comparison to potent P2Y12-inhibitors is lacking.

On-Clopidogrel Platelet Reactivity
Clopidogrel blocks the P2Y12 adenosine diphosphate receptor on platelets and, when given in addition to aspirin, has been shown to reduce cardiovascular events in patients with acute coronary syndromes (ACS) ([1,2][1]).

BackgroundPrasugrel is more effective than clopidogrel in reducing platelet aggregation in acute coronary syndromes. Data available on prasugrel reloading in clopidogrel treated patients with high residual platelet reactivity (HRPR) i.e. poor responders,

Aims Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is associated with left ventricular remodelling (LVR), which leads to progressive heart failure. Platelets play a pivotal role in promoting systemic and cardiac inflammatory responses during the complex process of ...
