Platelet releasate normalises the compromised muscle regeneration in a mouse model of hyperlipidaemia (2021)
Journal Article
Barlow, J., Sfyri, P. P., Mitchell, R., Verpoorten, S., Scully, D., Andreou, C., …Matsakas, A. (2021). Platelet releasate normalises the compromised muscle regeneration in a mouse model of hyperlipidaemia. Experimental Physiology, 106(3), 700-713. https://doi.org/10.1113/ep088937

Muscle satellite cells are important stem cells for skeletal muscle regeneration and repair after injury. ApoE‐deficient mice, an established mouse model of hyperlipidaemia and atherosclerosis, show evidence of oxidative stress‐induced lesions and fa...

The impact on high-fat diet on skeletal muscle stem cell recruitment in CD36 deficient mice (2019)
Thesis
Verpoorten, S. (2019). The impact on high-fat diet on skeletal muscle stem cell recruitment in CD36 deficient mice. (Thesis). Hull York Medical School, the University of Hull and the University of York. Retrieved from https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4222387

The prevalence of obesity is a major risk factor for cardiovascular and metabolic diseases including impaired skeletal muscle regeneration. Given the importance of skeletal muscle function in the context of obesity, it is paramount to understand the...

Optimising platelet secretomes to deliver robust tissue-specific regeneration (2019)
Journal Article
Scully, D., Sfyri, P., Wilkinson, H. N., Acebes‐Huerta, A., Verpoorten, S., Muñoz‐Turrillas, M. C., …Matsakas, A. (2020). Optimising platelet secretomes to deliver robust tissue-specific regeneration. Journal of tissue engineering and regenerative medicine, 14(1), 82-98. https://doi.org/10.1002/term.2965

Promoting cell proliferation is the cornerstone of most tissue regeneration therapies. As platelet-based applications promote cell division and can be customised for tissue-specific efficacy, this makes them strong candidates for developing novel reg...

Loss of CD36 protects against diet-induced obesity but results in impaired muscle stem cell function, delayed muscle regeneration and hepatic steatosis (2019)
Journal Article
Verpoorten, S., Sfyri, P., Scully, D., Mitchell, R., Tzimou, A., Mougios, V., …Matsakas, A. (2020). Loss of CD36 protects against diet-induced obesity but results in impaired muscle stem cell function, delayed muscle regeneration and hepatic steatosis. Acta Physiologica, 228(3), https://doi.org/10.1111/apha.13395

Aim: The prevalence of obesity is a major risk factor for cardiovascular and metabolic diseases including impaired skeletal muscle regeneration. Since skeletal muscle regenerative capacity is regulated by satellite cells, we aimed to investigate whet...

Platelet releasate promotes skeletal myogenesis by increasing muscle stem cell commitment to differentiation and accelerates muscle regeneration following acute injury (2018)
Journal Article
Scully, D., Sfyri, P., Verpoorten, S., Papadopoulos, P., Muñoz-Turrillas, M. C., Mitchell, R., …Matsakas, A. (2019). Platelet releasate promotes skeletal myogenesis by increasing muscle stem cell commitment to differentiation and accelerates muscle regeneration following acute injury. Acta Physiologica, 225(3), Article e13207. https://doi.org/10.1111/apha.13207

Aim The use of platelets as biomaterials has gained intense research interest. However, the mechanisms regarding platelet‐mediated skeletal myogenesis remain to be established. The aim of this study was to determine the role of platelet releasate in...
