  2. 11. Platelet angiogenic activities : a concert of multiple players

    Author : Xinyan Miao; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Angiogenesis, the sprouting of new capillaries from pre-existing blood vessels, is crucial for many physiological and pathological processes. Platelets are an important player in angiogenesis, whilst understanding of platelet engagement remains obscure. READ MORE

  4. 12. Stimulation of tendon repair by platelet concentrate, CDMP-2 and mechanical loading in animal models

    Author : Olena Virchenko; Per Aspenberg; Jon Karlsson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Achilles tendon; injuries; physiology; Blood platelets; tendon injuries; physiopathology; therapy; wound healing; Orthopaedics; Ortopedi;

    Abstract : Growth factor delivery may be useful to accelerate the rate of tendon healing. We studied Platelet Concentrate, which in effect can be regarded as a cocktail of growth factors relevant for tendon healing. READ MORE

  5. 13. Thrombin/ADP-induced platelet activation and drug intervention

    Author : Nylander Sven; Stan Heptinstall; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Abstract : Blood platelets are key players in haemostasis, the system that maintains an intact circulation. Circulating platelets are constantly on guard for vessel wall injury and will momentarily adhere to exposed subendothelial proteins, mainly collagens, at site of the injury. READ MORE

  6. 14. Platelet and leukocyte activation, and platelet-leukocyte cross-talk : mechanistic aspects with special reference to diabetes mellitus

    Author : Hu Hu; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Platelet-leukocyte cross-talk modulates platelet and leukocyte function, and appears to be important in thrombosis and haemostasis. Type 1 diabetes mellitus (DM) is associated with platelet and leukocyte dysfunction and an increased risk of cardiovascular complications. READ MORE

  7. 15. Platelet-activating factor, intestinal epithelial cells, and Chron's disease : An experimental study

    Author : Bengt Kald; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Abstract : Platelet-activating factor (PAF-acethcr, 1-0-alky l-2-acetyl-s n- glycero-3- phosphocholine), is a potent inflammatory mediator that can be formed by a variety of cells and tissues. In the present investigation, the content of PAFacether was determined in mucosal biopsies from the ileum and colon of patients with Crohn's disease and control patients. READ MORE
