چکیده

Two hereditary platelet disorders, Bernard-Soulier syndrome and Glanzmann's thrombasthenia, are characterized by selective deficiencies of platelet membrane glycoproteins. Murine monoclonal antibodies were developed against platelet membrane glycoprotein Ib and against the glycoprotein IIb/IIIa complex. A rapid whole blood assay for the deficiency of these glycoproteins was developed and used to study whole blood samples from six patients with Glanzmann's thrombasthenia and three patients with Bernard-Soulier syndrome. Patients with type I and type II Glanzmann's thrombasthenia were easily detectable with this assay. This permits the diagnosis of these disorders on 200 microliters of whole blood within 2 h of blood sampling.

Heterogeneity of drug-dependent platelet antigens and their antibodies in quinine- and quinidine-induced thrombocytopenia: involvement of glycoproteins Ib, IIb, IIIa, and IX.

The molecular nature of platelet receptors for quinine- and quinidine-dependent antiplatelet antibodies (Q.Ab and Qd.Ab) was studied by immunoblotting. One Q.Ab caused quinine-dependent IgG binding to platelet proteins with molecular weights (mol wts) of 174 Kd and 93 Kd and another to only a 93-Kd protein. A third Q.Ab caused binding to 174-, 140-, 93-, and 57-Kd proteins, while a fourth Q.Ab ...

Determination of platelet antigens and glycoproteins in the human fetus.

The autosomal recessive transmission of Glanzmann's thrombasthenia (GT) and Bernard-Soulier syndrome (BSS), together with requests of families who already had children with these diseases, prompted us to investigate the feasibility of their antenatal diagnosis. The preliminary step leading to the early detection of GT or BSS was to characterize, in the normal human fetus, the platelet antigens ...

Quantitative Immunophemotyping of Platelet Surface Glycoproteins among Iranian Patients with Bernard-Soulier Syndrome

Background: Bernard-Soulier syndrome is a rare inherited bleeding disease caused by quantitative or qualitative defect of GPIb/IX/V, a platelet complex that binds the Von Willebrand factor. The expression of GPIb-IX-V complex can be evaluated by flow cytometry and confirmed by the absence of ristocetin-induced platelet aggregation in platelet-rich plasma. The main aim of the present study was t...

Abnormal Whole Blood Thrombi in Humans with Inherited Platelet Receptor Defects

To delineate the critical features of platelets required for formation and stability of thrombi, thromboelastography and platelet aggregation measurements were employed on whole blood of normal patients and of those with Bernard-Soulier Syndrome (BSS) and Glanzmann's Thrombasthenia (GT). We found that separation of platelet activation, as assessed by platelet aggregation, from that needed to fo...

Background: Bernard-Soulier syndrome (BSS) is a rare, autosomal recessive platelet function disorder which is commonly mistaken for idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP).The report includes seven cases of BSS that have been diagnosed and treated as ITP for a long time. Methods: Between 2006 and 2016, data of seven BSS patients who have long been diagnosed and treated as ITP were collected ...
