Thrombin increases expression of fibronectin antigen on the platelet surface.
Fibronectins (fn) are adhesive glycoproteins which bind to collagen and to fibrin and appear to be important in cellular adhesion to other cells or surfaces. Fn-related antigen is present in human platelets, suggesting a possible role for fn in the adhesive properties of platelets. We have studied the localization of fn in resting and thrombin-stimulated platelets by immunofluorescence and quan...
متن کاملIdentification, Prevention and management of platelet refractoriness
Abstract Background and Objectives Platelet refractoriness can be caused by immunological and non-immunological factors. In non-immunological cases, the source which is usually a disease, should be eliminated. In immunological cases antibodies produced against foreign platelet antigens play a significant role. The aim of this review was to investigate the strategies involved in identifying ...
متن کاملQuantitation of platelet-associated IgG by radial immunodiffusion.
Platelet-associated IgG (PAIgG) was measured by a simple radial immunodiffusion technique using washed solubilized platelets and commercially available immunoplates. Subjects with normal platelet counts had PAIgG levels of 1.5--7.0 fg/platelet. Subjects with idiopathic immune thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) had levels ranging from 5.7 to 70.5 fg/platelet. All patients with recurrent ITP and 85% ...
متن کاملDirect quantitation of platelet-associated IgG by electroimmunoassay.
An electroimmunoassay was applied to the quantitation of platelet-associated IgG (PAIgG). Protein solubilized by Triton X100 from washed platelets was electrophoresed at pH 5.0 in agarose gels containing carbamoylated rabbit anti-human IgG (pI approximately equal to 5.0). Because the rabbit antibody is immobilized under these conditions, while PAIgG is freely mobile, rocket precipitates were pr...
متن کاملHuman platelet antigen polymorphism in bronchial asthma
Background: Asthma is recognized as a common cause of disability, of great economic cost, and of preventable deaths. In this study we aimed to test our hypothesis to evaluate the relationship between the Human Platelet Antigen-1(HPA-1) polymorphism and bronchial asthma and its severity, which would suggest genetic variances that may be responsible for expression or activation of these receptors...
