A series of novel 2-aminopyrimidine and 2-Substituted-4,6-diaminopyrimidine derivatives have been synthesized and their anti platelet aggregation activities were assessed against ADP and arachidonic acid- induced platelet aggregation in human plasma using light transmission aggregometry. None of the compounds showed satisfactory activity against the aggregation induced by ADP. However, satisfac...

Platelet rich concentrate (PRC) is a natural adjuvant that aids in human mesenchymal stromal cell (hMSC) proliferation in vitro; however, its role requires further exploration. This study was conducted to determine the optimal concentration of PRC required for achieving the maximal proliferation, and the need for activating the platelets to achieve this effect, and if PRC could independently in...

Background: Bone marrow lesions are a radiographic indication of bony pathology closely associated with advanced osteoarthritis the adjacent joint. Injection autologous orthobiologic products, including bone concentrate and platelet-rich plasma, have demonstrated safety efficacy in treating both (via intraarticular injection) intraosseous injection). The relative versus injection orthobiologics...

background: immune thrombocytopenia is a hematologic disorder characterized by low platelet count and variable bleeding manifestations due to immune-mediated platelet destruction and/or suppression of platelet production. this study was performed to evaluate characteristics and clinical presentations of adult patients with immune thrombocytopenia and to explore the clinical value of platelet an...

BACKGROUND Transfusion of platelet concentrate is often used to treat bleeding in patients on platelet inhibitors, but little is known about its efficacy between different inhibitors. We assessed the effect of ex vivo platelet supplementation on platelet aggregability in blood samples from patients treated with acetylsalicylic acid (ASA), clopidogrel, or ticagrelor. METHODS Platelet aggregabi...

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) has been clinically used as an easily prepared growth factor cocktail that can promote wound healing, angiogenesis, and tissue remodeling. However, the therapeutic effects of PRP are still controversial, due partly to the lack of optimized and standardized preparation protocols. We used whole blood (WB) samples to optimize the preparation protocols for PRP, white bloo...
