Studies investigating atherothrombotic risk in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), in particular platelet function and carotid intima-media wall thickness (cIMT), have been confounded by not adequately accounting for obesity. Liraglutide is... Read More about GLP-1R, a novel receptor in platelets; and the use of liraglutide in the treatment of obesity in women with PCOS.

cAMP signaling regulates platelet myosin light chain (MLC) phosphorylation and shape change through targeting the RhoA-Rho kinase-MLC phosphatase signaling pathway (2013)

Cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP)-dependent signaling modulates platelet shape change through unknown mechanisms. We examined the effects of cAMP signaling on platelet contractile machinery. Prostaglandin E1 (PGE1)-mediated inhibition of thrombin...

Oxidized low-density lipoproteins induce rapid platelet activation and shape change through tyrosine kinase and Rho kinase–signaling pathways (2013)
Journal Article
Wraith, K. S., Magwenzi, S., Aburima, A., Wen, Y., Leake, D., & Naseem, K. (2013). Oxidized low-density lipoproteins induce rapid platelet activation and shape change through tyrosine kinase and Rho kinase–signaling pathways. Blood, 122(4), 580-589. https://doi.org/10.1182/blood-2013-04-491688

Oxidized low-density lipoproteins (oxLDL) generated in the hyperlipidemic state may contribute to unregulated platelet activation during thrombosis. Although the ability of oxLDL to activate platelets is established, the underlying signaling mechanis...

The oxidation of low density lipoproteins (LDL) may contribute to platelet hyperactivity and thrombotic events in cardiovascular diseases. Although these pathological particles are known to stimulate platelet activation, the exact signalling mechanis...

Regulation of blood platelet function by nitric oxide (2013)
Thesis
Wake, J. D. (2013). Regulation of blood platelet function by nitric oxide. (Thesis). University of Hull. Retrieved from https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4214507

Upon vascular injury, platelets instantly adhere to the exposed extracellular matrix resulting in platelet activation and aggregation to form a haemostatic plug. This self-amplifying mechanism requires a tight control to prevent uncontrolled platelet... Read More about Regulation of blood platelet function by nitric oxide.
