Platelets at the interface of thrombosis, inflammation, and cancer.

open access: yesBlood, 2015
Although once primarily recognized for its roles in hemostasis and thrombosis, the platelet has been increasingly recognized as a multipurpose cell.

Hiding in plain sight – platelets, the silent carriers of HIV-1

open access: yesPlatelets, 2021
There are approximately 38 million people globally living with Human immunodeficiency virus 1 (HIV-1) and given the tremendous success of combination antiretroviral therapy (cART) this has dramatically reduced mortality and morbidity with prevention ...

Platelets and viruses

open access: yesPlatelets, 2021
Platelets play an essential role in maintaining vascular integrity after injury. In addition, platelets contribute to the immune response to pathogens. For instance, they express receptors that mediate binding of viruses, and toll-like receptors that activate the cell in response to pathogen-associated molecular patterns.

Is the endogenous ligand for PEAR1 a proteoglycan: clues from the sea

open access: yesPlatelets, 2021
Platelet Endothelial Aggregation Receptor 1 (PEAR1) is an orphan receptor of unknown function which mediates powerful activation of platelets and endothelial cells in response to crosslinking by antibodies and sulfated polysaccharides belonging to the ...

Platelet transfusions [PDF]

open access: yesThe Lancet, 2007
Ever since platelet transfusions were shown to reduce mortality from haemorrhage in patients with acute leukaemia in the 1950s, the use of this therapy has steadily grown to become an essential part of the treatment of cancer, haematological malignancies, marrow failure, and haematopoietic stem cell transplantation.

Platelet surface GPIbα, activated GPIIb-IIIa, and P-selectin levels in adult veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation patients

open access: yesPlatelets, 2022
Our objective was to characterize platelet surface glycoprotein (GP)Ibα, activated GPIIb-IIIa, and P-selectin levels during and after extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO).

Canine platelets express functional Toll-like receptor-4: lipopolysaccharide-triggered platelet activation is dependent on adenosine diphosphate and thromboxane A2 in dogs. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
BackgroundFunctional Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) has been characterized in human and murine platelets indicating that platelets play a role in inflammation and hemostasis during sepsis. It is unclear whether canine platelets could express functional TLR4

The tyrosine phosphatase CD148 is an essential positive regulator of platelet activation and thrombosis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Platelets play a fundamental role in hemostasis and thrombosis. They are also involved in pathologic conditions resulting from blocked blood vessels, including myocardial infarction and ischemic stroke.

Platelets and restenosis

open access: yesJournal of the American College of Cardiology, 2000
Restenosis is currently the major limitation of percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA). Factors such as elastic recoil, migration of vascular smooth muscle cells from media to intima, neointimal proliferation and vascular remodeling underly the restenotic process. Presently there is no effective therapy available for restenosis. The role
