  • While the interactions between bacteria and platelets have been described in detail for many Gram-positive pathogens, little research has been carried out with SBSEC in this respect. (lu.se)
  • The capacity for bacteria-induced platelet aggregation was also shown to be transferable between donors through serum. (lu.se)
  • IMPORTANCE The capacity of bacteria to activate and aggregate platelets is believed to contribute to the pathogenesis of IE. (lu.se)
  • It adds SBSEC to a group of bacteria that activate and aggregate platelets via the platelet Fc-receptor. (lu.se)
  • Patients with fewer platelets were more likely to die of staph sepsis than patients with higher platelet counts. (news-medical.net)
  • Scavenger receptors are expressed by MYELOID CELLS and some ENDOTHELIAL CELLS, and were originally characterized based on their ability to bind acetylated LOW-DENSITY LIPOPROTEINS. (bvsalud.org)
  • Extracellular matrix receptor and platelet antigens on osteoclasts and foreign body giant cells. (ox.ac.uk)
  • Twenty-six isolates of the four most common species and subspecies of SBSEC identified in bacteremia were collected, and interactions with platelets were investigated in platelet rich plasma (PRP) from three donors. (lu.se)
  • 1 vol % end-tidal) inhibits agonist-induced granulocyte-platelet interactions 24 h after administration and thus counteracts thromboinflammatory processes. (uzh.ch)
  • The human leukocyte platelet-activating factor receptor. (wikipedia.org)
  • Since oxidative stress in airway cells increases platelet-activating factor receptor (PAFR) expression, and PAFR is co-opted by pneumococci to adhere to host cells, we hypothesised that E-cigarette vapour increases pneumococcal adhesion to airway cells. (ersjournals.com)
  • To establish firm adhesion, pneumococci co-opt host-expressed platelet-activating factor receptor (PAFR), and then use the receptor as a Trojan horse to enter airway cells as the receptor is internalised [ 7 ]. (ersjournals.com)
  • Platelet-activating factor-mediated transmembrane signaling in human B lymphocytes is regulated through a pertussis- and cholera toxin-sensitive pathway. (jci.org)
  • Platelet-activating factor (PAF) stimulates human B cells, resulting in elevation of intracellular calcium and the release of inositol phosphates. (jci.org)
  • Below are the most recent publications written about "Receptor, Platelet-Derived Growth Factor beta" by people in Profiles. (wakehealth.edu)
  • Factor VIIa bound to TF on the cell surface activates Factor IX to Factor IXa and Factor X to Factor Xa. (merckvetmanual.com)
  • Activated factor IX (IXa), complexed with activated factor VIII (VIIIa) on a phospholipid membrane surface, activates factor X, and activity normally expressed on the surface of activated platelets. (medscape.com)
  • Platelets express a receptor/binding protein for factor IXa that promotes assembly of the IXa/VIIIa complex. (medscape.com)
  • This allows crosslinking of platelets and formation of a clot. (medscape.com)
  • Use human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-matched platelets whenever possible to prevent alloimmunization complications. (medscape.com)
  • The CD14 antigen is a glycosyl-phosphatidylinositol-linked single-chain surface membrane glycoprotein with a molecular weight of 53-55 kDa. (beckman.com)
  • Note: subjects with serologic evidence of prior vaccination to HBV (i.e. hepatitis B surface (HBs) antigen negative-, anti-HBs antibody positive and anti-hepatitis B core (HBc) antibody negative) or positive anti-HBc antibody from intravenous immunoglobulins (IVIG) or patients who have past exposure to HepB (HepB Surface Antigen negative but core antibody positive and DNA negative) who do not require treatment may participate.
