Platelet transfusion in a patient affected by Glanzmann's thrombasthenia with antibodies against GPIIb-IIIa.

Patients affected by Glanzmann's thrombasthenia often require blood and platelet transfusions due to bleeding. They may develop antibodies against platelet antigens and become refractory to platelet transfusions. In this study we present our approach to platelet transfusion in a thrombasthenic patient with platelet antibodies directed against gpIIb/IIIa. We found that platelets from two HPA1b/b...

Monitoring platelet GPIIb/IIIa antagonist therapy.

P latelet GP IIb/IIIa receptor antagonist therapy with abciximab (ReoPro), the Fab fragment of a mouse/ human chimeric version of the murine 7E3 antibody, is currently used to prevent ischemic complications of percutaneous coronary interventions in select cases, and the efficacy and safety of abciximab for other related indications are under study. A number of low-molecular-weight GP IIb/IIIa a...

Glycoprotein IIb Leu214Pro mutation produces glanzmann thrombasthenia with both quantitative and qualitative abnormalities in GPIIb/IIIa.

Glanzmann thrombasthenia is an inherited bleeding disorder due to a functional reduction or absence of platelet GPIIb/IIIa (alphaIIbbeta3) integrin receptors. Based on a prolonged bleeding time and absence of platelet aggregation in response to physiologic agonists, a 55-year-old white man was diagnosed as having Glanzmann thrombasthenia. The patient's platelet fibrinogen level was approximatel...

Abolition of in vivo platelet thrombus formation in primates with monoclonal antibodies to the platelet GPIIb/IIIa receptor. Correlation with bleeding time, platelet aggregation, and blockade of GPIIb/IIIa receptors.

We studied the dose-response effects of the F(ab')2 fragments of murine monoclonal antibodies to the platelet GPIIb/IIIa receptor (7E3 and 10E5) on in vivo platelet thrombus formation in a well-characterized monkey model in which the carotid artery is stenosed and thrombus formation is provoked and augmented by intimal damage and the infusion of subaggregating doses of epinephrine. Both antibod...

Biosynthesis and processing of platelet GPIIb-IIIa in human megakaryocytes

Platelet membrane glycoprotein IIb-IIIa forms a calcium-dependent heterodimer and constitutes the fibrinogen receptor on stimulated platelets. GPIIb is a two-chain protein containing disulfide-linked alpha and beta subunits. GPIIIa is a single chain protein. These proteins are synthesized in the bone marrow by megakaryocytes, but the study of their synthesis has been hampered by the difficulty ...
