The role of mast cells in atherosclerosis

Descarga: The role of mast cells in atherosclerosis Archivo: tromboembolia-venosa/tvp/haemo_2015-The role of mast cells in atherosclerosis.pdf Rupture of an atherosclerotic plaque is the major underlying cause of adverse cardiovascular events such as myocardial infarction or stroke. Therapeutic interventions should therefore be directed towards inhibiting growth of atherosclerotic lesions as well as towards prevention of lesion…

New agents for thromboprotection

Descarga: New agents for thromboprotection Archivo: tromboembolia-venosa/tvp/haemo_2015-New agents for thromboprotection.pdf Blood coagulation is essential for hemostasis, however excessive coagulation can lead to thrombosis. Factor XII starts the intrinsic coagulation pathway and contact-induced factor XII activation provides the mechanistic basis for the diagnostic aPTT clotting assay. Despite its function for fibrin formation in test tubes, patients…

Individualized antithrombotic therapy

Descarga: Individualized antithrombotic therapy Archivo: tromboembolia-venosa/haemo 2016 individualized antithrombotic therapy.pdf Clot formation in the circulation is a physiological mechanism preventing bleeding at sites of loss of vascular integrity. Clot formation may also occur intravascularly under pathological conditions, e. g. leading to myocardial infarction, stroke, and critical limb ischaemia. Clot formation involves activation of the coagulation…

Interaction of von Willebrand factor with platelets and the vessel wall

Descarga: Interaction of von Willebrand factor with platelets and the vessel wall Archivo: tromboembolia-arterial/haemo_2015-Atherogenesis and inflammation.pdf The initiation of thrombus formation at sites of vascular injury to secure haemostasis after tissue trauma requires the interaction of surface-exposed von Willebrand factor (VWF) with its primary platelet receptor, the glycoprotein (GP) Ib-IX-V complex. As an insoluble component…

Monocyte subsets in atherosclerosis

Descarga: Monocyte subsets in atherosclerosis Archivo: tromboembolia-venosa/tvp/haemo_2015-monocyte in atherosclerosis.pdf Endothelial dysfunction and chronic inflammation of the arterial wall continuously drive the development of atherosclerotic lesions. Monocytes, as cells of the innate immunity, are particularly involved in this process. In the last decade, heterogeneity of circulating monocytes has widely been acknowledged, and a recent consensus nomenclature…
