Impact of antiplatelets, anticoagulants and cyclic nucleotide stimulators on neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) and inflammatory markers during COVID-19.

While the association between coronavirus disease-19 (COVID-19) and neutrophils extracellular traps (NETs) is recognized, uncertainties remain regarding its precise onset, timing of resolution and target therapy. To assess changes in inflammatory and NET markers during the first week of COVID-19 hospitalization, and the association with disease severity. "In vitro" experiments investigated the effect of antiplatelets, anticoagulants, and cyclic nucleotide stimulators on NETs release.

Association between plasmatic oxidative stress and thrombosis in primary antiphospholipid syndrome.

Antiphospholipid antibodies induce a pro-inflammatory and hypercoagulable state that lead to increased risk of thrombosis. Whether oxidative damage contributes thrombosis risk is a matter of debate. We evaluated the association between oxidative stress and thrombosis in primary antiphospholipid syndrome (t-PAPS).

Cisplatin-induced human peripheral blood mononuclear cells' oxidative stress and nephrotoxicity in head and neck cancer patients: the influence of hydrogen peroxide.

Cisplatin is a widely used antineoplastic agent in the treatment of head and neck cancer. However, it is highly nephrotoxic. Oxidative stress is the main mechanism responsible for cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity.
