ADP-induced refractory state of platelets in vitro. I. Methodological studies on aggregation in platelet rich plasma.

Scandinavian Journal of Haematology

Abstract

ADP-induced aggregation was determined at various times of incubation with ADP in unstirred human platelet rich plasma (PRP) to which adenosine deaminase was added. In the early stages of incubation the shape change response was absent, the aggregation response was poor, and not reversible. These three parameters returned slowly towards normal as the incubation proceeded. Pronounced impairment of the aggregation response was present after all added ADP had been degraded in plasma. Log dose-response (rate of aggregation) curves for the platelets incubated with ADP had shifted to higher ADP concentrations and had also a small decrease in maximal height and in the slope compared to those obtained with control platelets. However, the shift in log dose response to higher ADP concentrations was far more striking, so the increase in log dose (R) necessary to obtain the same rate of aggregation as with control PRP was taken as a measure of refractoriness of aggregation towards ADP. R increased with the time of incubation to an optimal value and then decreased. The magnitude of the optimal value and the time at which optimum was reached increased with the concentration of the ADP incubated with the platelets. The variations in R during ...Continue Reading

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule. Discover the latest research on molecular barcoding here.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Chronic fatigue syndrome is a disease characterized by unexplained disabling fatigue; the pathology of which is incompletely understood. Discover the latest research on chronic fatigue syndrome here.

Evolution of Pluripotency

Pluripotency refers to the ability of a cell to develop into three primary germ cell layers of the embryo. This feed focuses on the mechanisms that underlie the evolution of pluripotency. Here is the latest research.

Position Effect Variegation

Position Effect Variagation occurs when a gene is inactivated due to its positioning near heterochromatic regions within a chromosome. Discover the latest research on Position Effect Variagation here.

STING Receptor Agonists

Stimulator of IFN genes (STING) are a group of transmembrane proteins that are involved in the induction of type I interferon that is important in the innate immune response. The stimulation of STING has been an active area of research in the treatment of cancer and infectious diseases. Here is the latest research on STING receptor agonists.

Microbicide

Microbicides are products that can be applied to vaginal or rectal mucosal surfaces with the goal of preventing, or at least significantly reducing, the transmission of sexually transmitted infections. Here is the latest research on microbicides.
