Molecular regulation of platelet-dependent thrombosis.
Hemostasis is a normal process preventing the sequelae of uncontrolled hemorrhage. In certain settings, these same processes cause adverse clinical events due to thrombotic occlusion of a vessel. The majority of unstable coronary syndromes result from disruption of an atherosclerotic plaque, leading to the exposure of subintimal contents, which triggers coagulation and the formation of a platel...
متن کاملPlatelet adhesion signalling and the regulation of thrombus formation.
Platelets perform a central role in haemostasis and thrombosis. They adhere to subendothelial collagens exposed at sites of blood vessel injury via the glycoprotein (GP) Ib-V-IX receptor complex, GPVI and integrin alpha(2)beta(1). These receptors perform distinct functions in the regulation of cell signalling involving non-receptor tyrosine kinases (e.g. Src, Fyn, Lyn, Syk and Btk), adaptor pro...
متن کاملInhibitors of platelet adhesion.
Platelet aggregation, in fundamental terms, is considered a biological end point that contributes to the occurrence of clinical events among patients with advanced atherosclerotic coronary artery disease. Acute coronary syndrome, including non–ST elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) and ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), accounts for upward of 733 000 hospital admissions yearly in ...
متن کاملPrimary platelet adhesion receptors.
Thrombotic diseases such as heart attack and stroke remain a major health concern in the Western world despite existing anti-thrombotic drugs. Current studies are revealing structure-function relationships of primary platelet adhesion receptors mediating adhesion, activation and aggregation, and the molecular mechanisms underlying platelet thrombus formation. Platelet adhesion is relevant not o...
متن کاملIntegrin-mediated platelet adhesion.
Adhesion of platelets to the damaged subendothelium is a prerequisite reaction for the initiation of hemostasis in vivo. Platelet membranes contain high concentrations of integrins and other glycoproteins (GPs) that are involved in the platelet adhesion to the extracellular matrix. In the present review, we focus on two platelet integrins, integrin alphaIIb beta3 (GPIIb/IIIa) and integrin alpha...
