Human platelets contain and secrete osteonectin, a major protein of mineralized bone.
We have developed a solid-phase competitive radioimmunoassay for human osteonectin, using a monoclonal antibody to bovine osteonectin. The assay is both specific and sensitive, being capable of measuring as little as 10 ng of osteonectin. Osteonectin measurements in parallel serum and plasma samples obtained from healthy individuals showed the plasma level to be 0.9 microgram/ml, while that of ...
متن کاملHuman Platelets Secrete Chemotactic Activity for Eosinophils
Thrombin-stimulated platelets liberate factors that induce chemotaxis of eosinophils and raise their cytosolic Ca2+ content ([Ca2+],). The sources of this activity are the denseand a-granules because inhibition of prostaglandin endoperoxide/thromboxane A2 formation and the platelet-activating factor receptor-antagonist WEB 2086 have no effect. Platelets from patients with Storage-Pool Deficienc...

متن کاملHuman platelets contain brain-derived neurotrophic factor.
Neurotrophic support to peripheral sensory neurons is provided by 2 factors of related sequence, NGF and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF). NGF is present in peripheral target tissues, while BDNF has only been reported in the CNS. We now report the biological characterization and molecular cloning of a cDNA for BDNF from human platelets. BDNF in human platelets has biological activities ...
متن کاملHuman T-lymphotropic virus type 1-infected cells secrete exosomes that contain Tax protein.
Human T-lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1) is the causative agent of adult T-cell leukemia and HTLV-1-associated myelopathy/tropical spastic paraparesis. The HTLV-1 transactivator protein Tax controls many critical cellular pathways, including host cell DNA damage response mechanisms, cell cycle progression, and apoptosis. Extracellular vesicles called exosomes play critical roles during pathog...
