Cell adhesion mechanisms in platelets.
At sites of vascular injury, platelets come into contact with the subendothelial extracellular matrix which triggers their activation and the formation of a hemostatic plug. This process is crucial for normal hemostasis, but may also lead to pathological thrombus formation causing diseases such as myocardial infarction or stroke. The initial capture of flowing platelets is mediated by the inter...
متن کاملInduction of apoptosis in human tumor cell lines by platelets
Introduction: It has been reported that platelets can eradicate tumor cells in vitro, although the mechanism of this effect has not been determined. The effect of platelets on the induction of apoptosis in tumor cells is largely unknown. Materials and methods: To investigate this effect, two human hematologic cell lines, K562 and Daudi, were independently faced with unstimulated and thromb...
متن کامل[Mechanisms of cell adhesion and migration].
In order to understand the molecular mechanisms underlying cancer metastasis, it is important to clarify the mechanisms of cell adhesion and cell migration. When epithelial cells start to migrate, cell-cell junctions are first disrupted. During migration, membrane protrusions, such as lamellipodia and filopodia, are observed externally at the cell front, and retraction at the cell rear. In addi...
متن کاملPlatelets and platelet adhesion molecules: novel mechanisms of thrombosis and anti-thrombotic therapies
Platelets are central mediators of thrombosis and hemostasis. At the site of vascular injury, platelet accumulation (i.e. adhesion and aggregation) constitutes the first wave of hemostasis. Blood coagulation, initiated by the coagulation cascades, is the second wave of thrombin generation and enhance phosphatidylserine exposure, can markedly potentiate cell-based thrombin generation and enhance...
متن کاملRab11 is required for maintenance of cell shape via βPS integrin mediated cell adhesion in Drosophila
In eukaryotes, vesicle trafficking is regulated by the small monomeric GTPases of the Rab protein family. Rab11, (a subfamily of the Ypt/Rab gene family) an evolutionarily conserved, ubiquitously expressed subfamily of small monomeric Rab GTPases, has been implicated in regulating vesicular trafficking through the recycling of endosomal compartment. In an earlier communication, we have shown th...
