Thrombin Stimulated Platelet-Derived Exosomes Inhibit Platelet-Derived Growth Factor Receptor-Beta Expression in Vascular Smooth Muscle Cells [PDF]
Background/Aims: It is difficult to predict acute thrombotic cardiovascular events in the clinic. Few studies have reported the presence of plasma exosomes containing microRNAs (miRNAs) in cardiovascular events.

Platelet-derived growth factor receptor beta is critical for zebrafish intersegmental vessel formation. [PDF]
Platelet-derived growth factor receptor beta (PDGFRbeta) is a tyrosine kinase receptor known to affect vascular development. The zebrafish is an excellent model to study specific regulators of vascular development, yet the role of PDGF signaling has not ...

PDGF-BB does not accelerate healing in diabetic mice with splinted skin wounds. [PDF]
Topical application of platelet-derived growth factor-BB (PDGF-BB) is considered to accelerate tissue repair of impaired chronic wounds. However, the vast literature is plagued with conflicting reports of its efficacy in animal models and this is often ...

GDF-15 Inhibits ADP-Induced Human Platelet Aggregation through the GFRAL/RET Signaling Complex
Growth differentiation factor-15 (GDF-15) is proposed to be strongly associated with several cardiovascular diseases, such as heart failure and atherosclerosis.

Platelet-derived growth factor receptor beta activates Abl2 via direct binding and phosphorylation [PDF]
Abl family kinases are nonreceptor tyrosine kinases activated by diverse cellular stimuli that regulate cytoskeleton organization, morphogenesis, and adhesion. The catalytic activity of Abl family kinases is tightly regulated in cells by a complex set of intramolecular and intermolecular interactions and post-translational modifications.

Platelet-derived growth factor receptor-β in Gorham's disease [PDF]
A 17-year-old male presented with pain in his lower-left chest. He had no significant medical history and was previously in good health. He had a fractured ninth left anterior rib and the tenth, eleventh and twelfth ribs were absent, which was thought to be a congenital anomaly. Several months later, he presented again with back pain, an enlarging mass

Peptide-Based Targeting of the Platelet-Derived Growth Factor Receptor Beta [PDF]
The aim of this work is to identify new ligands targeting the platelet-derived growth factor receptor beta (PDGFRβ).Biopanning was carried out with a 12-amino-acid phage display library against the recombinant extracellular domain of PDGFRβ. The identified peptide PDGFR-P1 was chemically synthesized and labeled with (125)I or (131)I.

Isolation and characterization of the platelet-derived growth factor beta receptor promoter [PDF]
The PDGFbeta r gene has been implicated in many physiological processes including development and wound healing. Aberrant expression of the receptor is seen in many pathological conditions such as atherosclerosis and inflammatory diseases. To study the mechanisms of PDGFbeta r regulation, we identified the regulatory regions of the gene. We have cloned
