HEMOSTASIS, THROMBOSIS, AND VASCULAR BIOLOGY A role for glycoprotein Ib in Streptococcus sanguis–induced platelet aggregation
Numerous studies have implicated bacteria in cardiovascular disease, but there is a paucity of information on the mechanism involved. In this study we show how the common oral bacterium Streptococcus sanguis can directly interact with platelets, resulting in activation and aggregate formation. Platelet aggregation was dependent on glycoprotein IIb/IIIa (GPIIb/ IIIa) and thromboxane. Platelets c...
متن کاملHEMOSTASIS, THROMBOSIS, AND VASCULAR BIOLOGY Activation-independent platelet adhesion and aggregation under elevated shear stress
Platelet aggregation, which contributes to bleeding arrest and also to thrombovascular disorders, is thought to initiate after signaling-induced activation. We found that this paradigm does not apply under blood flow conditions comparable to those existing in stenotic coronary arteries. Platelets interacting with immobilized von Willebrand factor (VWF) aggregate independently of activation when...
متن کاملHEMOSTASIS, THROMBOSIS, AND VASCULAR BIOLOGY FbsA, a fibrinogen-binding protein from Streptococcus agalactiae, mediates platelet aggregation
The bacterium Streptococcus agalactiae is an etiologic agent in the pathogenesis of endocarditis in humans. FbsA, a fibrinogen-binding protein produced by this pathogen, is considered an important virulence factor. In the present study we provide evidence that S agalactiae clinical isolates bearing FbsA attach to fibrinogen and elicit a fibrinogen-dependent aggregation of platelets. Mutants of ...
متن کاملHEMOSTASIS, THROMBOSIS, AND VASCULAR BIOLOGY ADP induces partial platelet aggregation without shape change and potentiates collagen-induced aggregation in the absence of Gaq
Platelets from Gaq knockout mice are unable to aggregate in response to physiological agonists like adenosine 5*-diphosphate (ADP), thromboxane A2, thrombin, or collagen, although shape change still occurs in response to all of these agonists except ADP. ADP-induced platelet aggregation results from simultaneous activation of the purinergic P2Y1 receptor coupled to calcium mobilization and shap...
متن کاملPlatelet volume, aggregation, and adenosine triphosphate release in cerebral thrombosis.
We compared whole blood platelet aggregation, adenosine triphosphate release, platelet count, platelet crit (percentage volume of platelets), and mean platelet volume during the acute, subacute, and chronic periods of cerebral thrombosis in 22 patients with value in 29 controls. During the acute and subacute periods, platelet aggregation, platelet count, platelet crit, and mean platelet volume ...
