چکیده

The role of fibrinogen in interplatelet recognition during aggregation was examined by combining two cell types: fresh platelets (in limiting density) activated by thrombin or A231 87. and formaldehyde-fixed platelets. bearing crosslinked fibrinogen. The fixed platelets did not aggregate by themselves. nor with resting platelets, but were capable of interacting with activated platelets and of participating passively in aggregation. The participation. expressed by enhanced aggregation. was assayed by the conventional turbidometric traces and by cosedimentation of fixed 3Hplatelets with aggregates of fresh platelets. Platelet suspensions. prepared without special means to avert spontaneous activation. retained plasma fibrinogen to the extent of 50 .tg/ml of a suspension containing i0 platelets. and

تاثیر گلیکوزیلاسیون برعملکرد و فاگوسیتوز پلاکت ها در طول نگهداری فرآورده پلاکت کنسانتره در سرما

Background and purpose: Cold storage results in clustering of gpIbα molecules on platelets. Consequently, the lectin domains of αMβ2 receptors on the liver macrophages recognize these molecules and ingest the platelets. Probably coverage of sugar molecules of gpIbα using galactose could prevent the recognition and ingestion of platelets by macrophages. The purpose of this study therby was to...

Inhibitory effect of Cinnamon on prevention of foam cell formation in platelet and monocytes co-culture

Introduction: Atherosclerosis is one of the leading causes of cardiovascular disease. Following endothelial damage and platelet aggregation in that area and the recruitment of monocytes and their conversion to macrophages, LDL gradually accumulates under the endothelial artery wall and gradually oxidized and convert to oxi-LDL. By swallowing it, the macrophages turn into foam cell and then athe...

The source of HLA molecules on platelets: Does platelets adsorb soluble HLA molecules from their environment?

Background: The origin and function of human leukocyte antigen (HLA) class I molecules on platelets are still highly arguable. Given the differences in the results of the previous studies in this regard, the lack of research in recent years, and the clinical importance of HLA class I molecules, the absorption capacity of platelets for soluble HLA class I molecules was studied in this investigat...
