- PAR1 activation initiates integrin engagement and outside-in signalling in megakaryoblastic CHRF-288 cells.
- More pieces of the platelet activation puzzle slide into place.
- CXCR4 on human endothelial cells can serve as both a mediator of biological responses and as a receptor for HIV-2.
- Thrombin responses in human endothelial cells. Contributions from receptors other than PAR1 include the transactivation of PAR2 by thrombin-cleaved PAR1.
- The alpha subunits of Gz and Gi interact with the eyes absent transcription cofactor Eya2, preventing its interaction with the six class of homeodomain-containing proteins.
- Loss of signaling through the G protein, Gz, results in abnormal platelet activation and altered responses to psychoactive drugs.
- Neutrophil proteases can inactivate human PAR3 and abolish the co-receptor function of PAR3 on murine platelets.
