How do platelets prevent bleeding?
A new study presented by Goerge and colleagues in this issue of Blood demonstrates that platelets preserve vascular integrity in inflamed tissue independently of classic adhesion mechanisms.
متن کاملHow platelets safeguard vascular integrity.
The haemostatic role of platelets was established in the 1880s by Bizzozero who observed their ability to adhere and aggregate at sites of vascular injury. It was only some 80 years later that the function of platelets in maintaining the structural integrity of intact blood vessels was reported by Danielli. Danielli noted that platelets help preserve the barrier function of endothelium during o...
متن کاملPlatelets and vascular inflammation of the brain.
UNLABELLED There is emerging evidence that platelets have an important role in inflammation beyond their involvement in hemostasis. Platelets can contribute to inflammatory reactions via crosstalk both with immune cells and endothelial cells. Inflamed vessels are characterized by the presence of activated endothelial cells. These activated endothelial cells upregulate receptors necessary for le...
متن کاملAspirin, platelets, and bleeding.
RECENT findings regarding the effect of acetylsalicylic acid on platelet function provide an interesting example of how astute clinical observation can lead to the discovery of basic physiologic and pathologic mechanisms. For many years Dr. Armand Quick had suspected that the ingestion of aspirin by hemophiliacs exaggerated their bleeding di-athesis. We were interested to find that some of the ...
متن کاملPlatelets in Inflammation: Regulation of Leukocyte Activities and Vascular Repair
There is now a large body of evidence that platelets are central actors of inflammatory reactions. Indeed, platelets play a significant role in a variety of inflammatory diseases. These diseases include conditions as varied as atherosclerosis, arthritis, dermatitis, glomerulonephritis, or acute lung injury. In this context, one can note that inflammation is a convenient but imprecise catch-all ...
