The CalDAG-GEFI/Rap1/αIIbβ3 axis minimally contributes to accelerated platelet clearance in mice with constitutive store-operated calcium entry

open access: yesPlatelets, 2023
Circulating platelets maintain low cytosolic Ca2+ concentrations. At sites of vascular injury, agonist-induced Ca2+ release from platelet intracellular stores triggers influx of extracellular Ca2+, a process known as store-operated Ca2+ entry (SOCE ...

A platelet alpha-granule membrane protein (GMP-140) is expressed on the plasma membrane after activation. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1985
We have previously characterized a monoclonal antibody, S12, that binds only to activated platelets (McEver, R.P., and M.N. Martin, 1984, J. Biol. Chem., 259:9799-9804). It identifies a platelet membrane protein of Mr 140,000, which we have designated as

The anticancer effect of the HDAC inhibitor belinostat is enhanced by inhibitors of Bcl‐xL or Mcl‐1 in ovarian cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
The pan‐HDAC inhibitor belinostat increases the expression of the pro‐apoptotic proteins Bim, Puma, and Noxa and induces apoptosis in ovarian cancer cell lines and patient‐derived tumor organoids when used at high concentrations. Moreover, inhibiting the anti‐apoptotic proteins Bcl‐xL or Mcl‐1 sensitizes these preclinical models to the cytotoxic effect

Immune-induced thrombocytopenia by pembrolizumab: case report and review of literature

open access: yesPlatelets
Immune-checkpoint blockades (ICBs) are now used in early-stage diseases like triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). While effective, they can cause severe toxicities.

Evaluation of human platelet granules by structured illumination laser fluorescence microscopy

open access: yesPlatelets, 2023
Many roles of human platelets in health and disease are linked to their ability to transport and secrete a variety of small molecules and proteins carried in dense (δ-) and α-granules.

Permeability and conductivity of platelet-reinforced membranes and composites

open access: yes, 2001
We present large scale simulations of the diffusion constant $D$ of a random composite consisting of aligned platelets with aspect ratio $a/b>>1$ in a matrix (with diffusion constant $D_0$) and find that $D/D_0 = 1/(1+ c_1 x + c_2 x^2)$, where $x= a v_f ...

Association of high‐dose radioactive iodine therapy with PPM1D‐mutated clonal hematopoiesis in older individuals

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
In thyroid cancer patients, high‐dose (≥7.4 GBq) radioactive iodine therapy (RAIT) was associated with a higher prevalence of clonal hematopoiesis (variant allele frequency >2%) in individuals aged ≥50 years (OR = 2.44). In silico analyses showed that truncating PPM1D mutations conferred a selective advantage under these conditions.

Identification of UDP-Glucuronosyltransferase mRNA in human platelets: differential levels in smokers and non-smokers

open access: yesPlatelets
Background UDP-glucuronosyl transferases (UGTs) are major enzymes of phase II drug metabolism, yet their expression in human platelets remains underexplored.

Developing human tissue engineered arterial constructs to simulate human in vivo thrombus formation

open access: yesPlatelets, 2023
Thrombus formation is highly dependent upon the physico-chemical environment in which it is triggered. Our ability to understand how thrombus formation is initiated, regulated, and resolved in the human body is dependent upon our ability to replicate the

Modulation of interferon-[alpha] secretion by activated platelets in systemic lupus erythematosus. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Type I interferons play a key role in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) pathogenesis as an "IFN signature" is found in the majority of patients with active SLE.
