[ 1 ] - Variations in Intraplatelet Phospho-VASP Expression Due to Pre-analytical Sample Preparations, Illustration of a Quality Control Issue in Platelet Pharmacology

Intraplatelet phospho-VASP analysis is a commonly used approach for monitoring of anti-platelet therapy; however, testing of intraplatelet phospho-VASP expression needs a high level of experience and proficiency. The ability to recognize how the pre-analytical variations can change the results would be helpful for the interpretation of data from intraplatelet P-VASP analysis. The aim of this st...

[ 3 ] - Induction 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...
