- Here, we visualised the sequential phases of intravascular MK protrusions and fragments in living mouse bone marrow (BM), using intravital microscopy, and examined their ultrastructure. (nih.gov)
Postoperative1
- Radiographic analysis showed closure of the lesion, but we could not affirm that this resulted from the treatments administered or by normal bone regeneration itself, when the lesion was evaluated at 6 and 10 weeks postoperative, seeing that there were no significant differences between the groups.

Radiation2
- A procedure in which physicians replace marrow destroyed by high doses of anti-cancer drugs or radiation. (ucsfhealth.org)
- Radiation affects cells that divide quickly, especially blood - red cells only last about 120 days in circulation, and platelets only 5 days. (nhsbt.nhs.uk)
Dysfunction1
- This review will focus on two interesting aspects of bone marrow dysfunction and how this impacts on the quality of circulating platelets. (monash.edu)
Factor6
- and/or (c) unknown disease-related factor(s) affecting circulating platelet receptor expression/function after their release from megakaryocytes. (monash.edu)
- Platelets play a primary role in this process, interacting with subendothelium-bound von Willebrand factor (vWf) via the membrane glycoprotein (GP) Ib complex. (medscape.com)
- The alpha granules contain hemostatic proteins such as fibrinogen, vWf, and growth factors (eg, platelet-derived growth factor and transforming growth factors). (medscape.com)
- Bioactive agents, including cytokines and growth factors such as stromal cell-derived factor-1, platelet-derived growth factor, VEGF, and others, were shown to promote cell recruitment and have a helpful effect on the repair of articular cartilage injuries ( 8 , 10 , 11 ). (spandidos-publications.com)
- This increase in the thrombin burst occurs after direct rFVIIa activation of factors IX and X on the surface of activated platelets (even in the absence of factor VIII or IX). (medscape.com)
- rFVIIa is able to activate factor X on phospholipid vesicles, activated platelets, or monocytes independent of TF, although the TF-independent generation of thrombin is much less efficient than the TF-dependent thrombin generation by rFVIIa. (medscape.com)
Patients3
- In patients with ET, the platelets may appear enlarged and/or clumped together. (lls.org)
- This category was added, because Mylotarg seems to delay platelet recovery in some patients. (centerwatch.com)
- The antigenic target in most patients appears to be the platelet GP IIb/IIIa complex. (medscape.com)
Treatments1
- b) It was not possible to determine the efficiency of the bone repair treatments studied, as the results did not show significant differences between the groups. (bvsalud.org)
Clots2
- When you don't have enough platelets in your blood supply, your body can't form clots. (healthline.com)
- Thin blood means having too few platelets, a part of the blood that helps clots form. (medicalnewstoday.com)
RFVIIa2
- It is postulated that the thrombin-generating capacity of rFVIIa is enhanced substantially by platelets accumulating at the site of vascular damage (Figure 2). (medscape.com)
- The rFVIIa seems to work in a TF-independent manner directly on factors IX and X on the phospholipid surface of activated platelets. (medscape.com)
