Platelet P-Selectin Levels in Relation to Plasma Soluble P-Selectin and -Thromboglobulin Levels in Atrial Fibrillation
Background and Purpose—The increased risk of stroke and thromboembolism in atrial fibrillation (AF) may be related to a prothrombotic or hypercoagulable state, with abnormalities of hemostasis and platelet activation. To investigate the role of platelets in AF and the influence of antithrombotic therapy, we developed and then applied a new assay to detect the absolute amount of P-selectin per p...

متن کاملSoluble E-selectin and P-Selectin Serum Levels in Patients with Psoriasis Compared to Healthy Controls
Introduction: Psoriasis is an inflammatory skin disease in which abnormal individual immune reactivity plays an important role. Eselectin and P-selectin are adhesion molecules expressed on vascular endothelial cells in several inflammatory skin diseases, including psoriasis. The aim of the present study was to describe selected immunological changes, concerning adhesion molecules status (sEsele...
متن کاملAssociation between P-selectin gene polymorphisms and soluble P-selectin levels and their relation to coronary artery disease.
P-selectin is a cellular adhesion molecule that mediates the interaction of activated endothelial cells or platelets with leukocytes. Increased levels of soluble P-selectin have been reported in various cardiovascular disorders. We measured serum soluble P-selectin levels as well as 3 polymorphisms of the P-selectin gene (C-2123G, A-1969G, and Thr715Pro) in a large cohort of patients with docum...
متن کاملIncreased levels of soluble P-selectin in hypercholesterolemic patients.
BACKGROUND Hypercholesterolemia is considered a major risk factor for the development of atherosclerosis. Enhanced lipid peroxidation and persistent platelet activation can be observed in vivo in hypercholesterolemic patients and may have pathophysiological implications in the occurrence of cardiovascular events. P-selectin may play an important role in the pathogenesis of multicellular events,...
