Chronic Skin-Specific Inflammation Promotes Vascular Inflammation and Thrombosis
Patients with psoriasis have systemic and vascular inflammation and are at increased risk for myocardial infarction, stroke, and cardiovascular death. However, the underlying mechanism(s) mediating the link between psoriasis and vascular disease is incompletely defined. This study sought to determine whether chronic skin-specific inflammation has the capacity to promote vascular inflammation an...
متن کاملNew links between inflammation and thrombosis.
This article is a summary of the Sol Sherry Lecture of the Council on Arteriosclerosis, Thrombosis, and Vascular Biology, which was presented at the Scientific Sessions of the American Heart Association in November 2004. It highlights work from our laboratory, focusing mainly on new aspects of P-selectin and CD40L (CD154) biology and on the interplay of platelets and leukocytes in thrombosis an...
متن کاملPlatelets at the interface of thrombosis, inflammation, and cancer.
Although once primarily recognized for its roles in hemostasis and thrombosis, the platelet has been increasingly recognized as a multipurpose cell. Indeed, circulating platelets have the ability to influence a wide range of seemingly unrelated pathophysiologic events. Here, we highlight some of the notable observations that link platelets to inflammation, reinforcing the platelet's origin from...
متن کاملTissue factor, the emerging link between inflammation, thrombosis, and vascular remodeling.
Tissue factor (TF) is a cell surface protein that is expressed by endothelial cells, monocytes, and smooth muscle cells in response to a variety of stimuli including lipopolysaccharide,1 growth factors,2 and lipoproteins3 (Figure). The main function of TF is to bind coagulation factor VII, leading to activation of both the intrinsic and extrinsic blood coagulation cascades.4 In normal arteries,...
متن کاملC-reactive protein: a potential new molecular link between inflammation, thrombosis and vascular cell proliferation?
C-reactive protein (CRP), a pentraxin synthesized in the liver, is a highly conserved pentameric plasma protein that participates in the systemic response to inflammation. In humans, plasma levels of CRPmay rise rapidly and markedly (>1000-fold) after an acute inflammatory stimulus and presumably contribute to host defence [1]. On the other hand, although CRP may exert pleiotropic effects, both...
