Platelets assume a pivotal role in the pathogenesis of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), emphasizing their significance disease progression. Consequently, addressing CVDs necessitates targeted approach focused on mitigating platelet activation. Eugenol, predominantly derived from clove oil, is recognized for its antibacterial, anticancer, and anti-inflammatory properties, rendering it valuable medicinal agent. This investigation delves into intricate mechanisms through which eugenol influences...

Life-threatening thrombocytopenia and bleeding, common side effects of clinically available αIIbβ3 antagonists, are associated with the induction ligand-induced integrin conformational changes exposure binding sites (LIBSs). To address this issue, we examined intrinsic mechanisms structure–activity relationships purified disintegrins, from Protobothrops flavoviridis venom (i.e., Trimeresurus flavoviridis), TFV-1 TFV-3 distinctly different pro-hemorrhagic tendencies. a epitope that chimeric...

Polymer polyethylene glycol (PEG), or PEGylation of polypeptides improves protein drug stability by decrease degradation and reduces renal clearance. To produce a pharmaceutical disintegrin derivative, the N-terminal technique was used to modify derivative [KGDRR]trimucrin for favorable safety pharmacokinetic profiles antithrombotic efficacy. We compared intact (RR) PEGylated KGDRR (PEG-RR) in vitro vivo systems their activities. The activity platelet aggregation inhibition bleeding tendency...

Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor (IMT) is a rare type usually arising in the thoracic or abdominal cavity. Despite its rarity, IMT commonly harbors driver gene rearrangements involving anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK), ROS proto-oncogene 1 (ROS1), and neurotrophic tropomyosin-related kinase. We present case of parapharyngeal with convoluted diagnostic test results determining rearrangement. The immunohistochemical stains were ALK-negative ROS1 positive, but result fluorescence situ...

Current alphaIIbbeta3 antagonists are efficacious anti-thrombotics but have significant bleeding risk. The life-threatening thrombocytopenia and bleeding, common side effects of clinically available antagonists, associated with induction ligand-induced integrin conformational changes inhibition inside-out signaling. Emerging evidence suggests that selective outside-in signaling has potent antithrombotic without causing bleeding. To address this issue, we examined whether two purified...
