Journal ArticleDOI

Crosstalk between Platelets and the Immune System: Old Systems with New Discoveries

TL;DR: New data suggest that platelets are important immune cells and may contribute to innate and adaptive immunity under both physiological and pathological conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Plasma fibronectin depletion enhances platelet aggregation and thrombus formation in mice lacking fibrinogen and von Willebrand factor.

TL;DR: It is shown that thrombogenesis in TKO mice was enhanced in both FeCl(3)-injured mesenteric arterioles and laser-injured cremaster arteriols and that soluble pFn is probably an important inhibitory factor for platelet aggregation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fibrinogen and von Willebrand factor-independent platelet aggregation in vitro and in vivo

TL;DR: β3 integrin, thrombin, and Ca2+ play critical roles in this Fg/VWF‐independent aggregation, and both plasma and platelet granule proteins contribute to this process.
Journal ArticleDOI

Maternal anti-platelet β3 integrins impair angiogenesis and cause intracranial hemorrhage

TL;DR: The data suggest that fetal hemostasis is distinct and that impairment of angiogenesis rather than thrombocytopenia likely causes FNAIT-associated ICH, and indicates that maternal IVIG therapy can effectively prevent this devastating disorder.
