A megakaryocyte with no platelets: Anti-platelet antibodies, apoptosis, and platelet production
Primary immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) and drug-induced thrombocytopenia (DITP) are disorders caused primarily by the presence of anti-platelet auto-antibodies (Abs). Hematologists have traditionally seen thrombocytopenia as the result of increased destruction of Ab-coated platelets by the reticuloendothelial system.

Thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP) rarely complicates acute inflammatory conditions such as surgery, including post-cardiac surgery. Review of 32 previously-reported cases of post-cardiac surgery TTP indicates that this disorder often occurs as ...

Structure and equation of state of interaction site models for disc-shaped lamellar colloids
We apply RISM (Reference Interaction Site Model) and PRISM (polymer-RISM) theories to calculate the site-site pair structure and the osmotic equation of state of suspensions of circular or hexagonal platelets (lamellar colloids) over a range of ratios of

Platelets induce neutrophil extracellular traps in transfusion-related acute lung injury.
There is emerging evidence that platelets are major contributors to inflammatory processes through intimate associations with innate immune cells. Here, we report that activated platelets induce the formation of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) in ...

Dual antiplatelet therapy (PEGASUS) vs. dual pathway (COMPASS): a head-to-head in vitro comparison
Dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) with aspirin and a P2Y12 inhibitor is prescribed for 1-year after myocardial infarction. Two clinical strategies are considered at 1-year: continuation of DAPT or “Dual Pathway” (DP), using aspirin and rivaroxaban.

While previous reports showed ADP-induced platelet reactivity to be an independent predictor of bleeding after PCI in stable patients, this has never been investigated in patients with cardiogenic shock. The association of bleeding events with respect to

Platelets and Infections – Complex Interactions with Bacteria
Platelets can be considered sentinels of vascular system due to their high number in the circulation and to the range of functional immunoreceptors they express.

Modeling of Polymer Clay Nanocomposite for a Multiscale Approach
The mechanical property enhancement of polymer reinforced with nano-thin clay platelets (of high aspect ratio) is associated with a high polymer-filler interfacial area per unit volume.

Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) is a highly potent inflammatory trigger and is reportedly found outside the cells in blood in various pathologies. Platelets are abundant in blood where they promote hemostasis.
