Journal ArticleDOI

Platelets and fibrin(ogen) increase metastatic potential by impeding natural killer cell–mediated elimination of tumor cells

TL;DR: These studies establish an important link between hemostatic factors and innate immunity and indicate that one mechanism by which the platelet-fibrin(ogen) axis contributes to metastatic potential is by impeding natural killer cell elimination of tumor cells.
Journal ArticleDOI

Leukocyte engagement of fibrin(ogen) via the integrin receptor αMβ2/Mac-1 is critical for host inflammatory response in vivo

TL;DR: These studies definitively demonstrate that fibrin(ogen) is a physiologically relevant ligand for αMβ2, integrin engagement of fibr inogen is critical to leukocyte function and innate immunity in vivo, and the biological importance of fibinogen in regulating the inflammatory response can be appreciated outside of any alteration in clotting function.
Journal ArticleDOI

A guide to murine platelet structure, function, assays, and genetic alterations

TL;DR: This review presents general recommendations with respect to collection, isolation and processing of murine platelets and describes the assays currently available to study platelet function and critically assesses their utility.
Journal ArticleDOI

Application of high-throughput screening to identify a novel αIIb-specific small- molecule inhibitor of αIIbβ3-mediated platelet interaction with fibrinogen

TL;DR: Compound 1 provides a prototype for small molecule selective inhibition of αIIbβ3, without receptor priming, via targeting αIIa, and molecular docking simulations suggest that compound 1 interacts with αiib but not β3.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dynamics of GPIIb/IIIa-mediated platelet-platelet interactions in platelet adhesion/thrombus formation on collagen in vitro as revealed by videomicroscopy

TL;DR: In this model system, absence or blockade of GPIIb/IIIa receptors interferes with thrombus formation and alters the pattern of platelet deposition, resulting in a more uniform deposition than predicted.
