  •  
    homocysteine contributes to atherogenesis and CVD via: increased ROS, induces endothelial dysfunction, increases platelete adhesion and thrombosis, increases smooth muscle cell proliferation, endothelial cell cytotoxicity, increases LDL oxidation, vasoconstriction, increased MCP-1 and IL-8, and induces endothelial HMG CoA reductase.

Differential regulation of endothelium behavior by progesterone and medroxyprogesterone... - 0 views

  •  
    No surprise that progesterone and the synthetic progestin medroxyprogesterone acetate (MPA) have different effects on the vascular endothelium. MPA inhibits NO production, whereas Progesterone maintains NO production.  MPA promoted platelet adhesion whereas Progesterone did not--significant implication in plaque formation.

High D-dimer levels are associated with poor prognosis in cancer patients - 0 views

  • a systemic activation of blood coagulation and procoagulant changes in the hemostatic system have frequently been observed in cancer patients, even in the absence of venous thromboembolism
  • Thrombin is a pivotal enzyme in the process of blood coagulation and leads to the conversion of fibrinogen to fibrin, which is the end product of blood coagulation and finally results in the formation of a fibrin clot
  • deposition of fibrin, which has an important role in the formation of tumor stroma and hematogenous spread of tumor cells.

  • The interaction of fibrin, platelets and tumor cells leads to the formation of platelet-fibrin-tumor-cell aggregates that promote endothelial adhesion and metastatic spread, as well as tumor cell growth and tumor cell survival
  • fibrin degradation products have been shown to display strong angiogenic properties
  • D-dimer is a biomarker that globally indicates the activation of hemostasis and fibrinolysis
  • It is a degradation product of fibrin
  • high D-dimer levels were reported to be predictive of the occurrence of VTE in cancer patients
  •  
    elevated D-Dimer associated with poor prognosis in cancer. Good review of cancer and ehmostasis.

Symptoms Of Aplastic Anemia | Your Health Our Priority - 0 views

  •  
    Aplastic Anemia is a rare but serious disease of the blood cells. It is diagnosed by the inability of the bone marrow to synthesize RBCs, WBCs and platelets. The spongy bone marrow contains stem cells that are actively involved in Hematopoiesis.
