It remains unclear whether low-dose ticagrelor offers better safety and similar efficacy for Asian patients with acute coronary syndromes (ACS). We aimed to compare the safety and effectiveness of low-dose ticagrelor vs standard-dose ticagrelor in ...

Metastasis: new functional implications of platelets and megakaryocytes.
Platelets are essential components of hemostasis. Due to a plethora of factors released on activation, platelet functions are also connected to tumor growth, notably by acting on angiogenesis.

Permeability and conductivity of platelet-reinforced membranes and composites
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 ...

The actin binding proteins cortactin and HS1 are dispensable for platelet actin nodule and megakaryocyte podosome formation [PDF]
A dynamic, properly organised actin cytoskeleton is critical for the production and haemostatic function of platelets. The Wiskott Aldrich Syndrome protein (WASp) and Actin-Related Proteins 2 & 3 Complex (Arp2/3 complex) are critical mediators of ...

Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) remain leading causes of death worldwide. While platelet-mediated thrombus formation following the rupture of an atherosclerotic plaque is one of the key pathophysiologic events in CVDs, the role of platelets in previous or

Platinum/ceria/alumina catalysts on microstructures for carbon monoxide conversion [PDF]
Platinum/ceria/alumina catalysts have been prepared by a sol–gel method and coated in the microchannels of stainless steel platelets. These catalysts are very active for the water-gas shift reaction between 300 and 400°C.

Aquaporins in platelet function
Structurally, aquaporins (AQPs) are small channel proteins with monomers of ~ 30 kDa that are assembled as tetramers to form pores on cell membranes. Aquaporins mediate the conduction of water but at times also small solutes including glycerol across ...

Platelets in Pulmonary Immune Responses and Inflammatory Lung Diseases.
Platelets are essential for physiological hemostasis and are central in pathological thrombosis. These are their traditional and best known activities in health and disease.

Relationship between the Increased Haemostatic Properties of Blood Platelets and Oxidative Stress Level in Multiple Sclerosis Patients with the Secondary Progressive Stage [PDF]
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is the autoimmune disease of the central nervous system with complex pathogenesis, different clinical courses and recurrent neurological relapses and/or progression. Despite various scientific papers that focused on early stage of
