Modulation of the proteins released during activation is one mechanism whereby aspirin may influence platelet-mediated human disease. We investigated the effect of aspirin on the platelet releasate using mass spectrometry and found that different agonists evoked different releasate profiles, with aspirin having a general moderating effect on the amount of protein released regardless of the agonist. These observations were confirmed for several cytokines using an antibody array approach.

Purpose: Multiple Sclerosis is an inflammatory neurodegenerative disease characterised by blood-brain barrier dysfunction and leukocyte infiltration into the CNS. Platelets are best known for their contributions to haemostasis, however, upon activation, platelets release an abundance of soluble and vesicular-associated proteins, termed the platelet releasate (PR). This milieu contains numerous inflammatory and vasoactive proteins, that can attract leukocytes and alter endothelial permeability.

Background: Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) has been shown to be a promising treatment for subacromial impingement, and although its interaction with aspirin (ASA) is controversial, many providers ask patients to stop non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug use before PRP administration.

Purpose: This studied aimed to identify the effect of PRP in a murine model of subacromial impingement and to explore the effect of ASA on PRP treatment.

Methods: A murine model of subacromial impingement was used, incorporating 48 wild-type C57BL/6 mice.

This observational study reports the process for the manufacture of RAPID Biodynamic Haematogel and explores the properties of the platelet and leukocyte-rich plasma gels formed. Gels were manufactured from 60 mL of human blood using the protocol of Biotherapy Services. Platelet and leukocyte content, time-to-gel, gel weight and the temporal profile of liquid exudation from the gels were measured, along with the content of growth factors VEGF and PDGF in the releasate.

Background: Variations in light exposure are associated with changes in inflammation and coagulation. The impact of light spectra on venous thrombosis (VT) and arterial thrombosis is largely unexplored.

Objectives: To investigate the impact of altering light spectrum on platelet function in thrombosis.

Article Synopsis
  • Congenital heart disease (CHD) is linked to both clotting and bleeding risks, with past studies showing mixed results on platelet activity in affected infants, prompting this investigation.
  • The study enrolled 19 infants with CHD and 21 controls, using advanced mass spectrometry to analyze platelet surface markers and cytokine levels in the blood.
  • Results indicated significant differences in platelet activation in CHD infants, revealing unique subpopulations of platelets, increased hypogranular platelets, and elevated plasma cytokines, suggesting complex platelet behavior in this condition.
