Download or read book The Immunological Role of Platelet Activation in the Pathophysiology of COVID 19 written by Theresa Marie Rossouw and published by Frontiers Media SA. This book was released on 2023-11-02 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Platelets are increasingly recognized for their role as mediators of immune response and inflammation. As major components of the hematological system, they form an important bridge between immunity and coagulation. In the context of viral infections, platelets may suppress viral dissemination but can also support viral persistence. When platelets become hyperactivated in response to an infection, patients can develop immuno-thrombosis and coagulopathy. These derangements of hemostasis are particularly relevant in the context of infection with the novel coronavirus, SARS-CoV-2, and the subsequent development of coronavirus disease, COVID-19, a disease in which thromboembolic events are an important cause of morbidity and mortality.

This book was released on 2023 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: Critically ill COVID-19 patients suffer from thromboembolic as well as bleeding events. Endothelial dysfunction, spiking of von Willebrand factor (vWF), and excessive cytokine signaling result in coagulopathy associated with substantial activation of plasmatic clotting factors. Thrombocytopenia secondary to extensive platelet activation is a frequent finding, but abnormal platelet dysfunction may also exist in patients with normal platelet counts. In this study, we performed analyses of platelet function and of von Willebrand factor in critically ill COVID-19 patients (n = 13). Platelet aggregometry was performed using ADP, collagen, epinephrin, and ristocetin. VWF and fibrinogen binding of platelets and CD62 and CD63 expression after thrombin stimulation were analyzed via flow cytometry. In addition, VWF antigen (VWF:Ag), collagen binding capacity (VWF:CB), and multimer analysis were performed next to routine coagulation parameters. All patients exhibited reduced platelet aggregation and decreased CD62 and CD63 expression. VWF binding of platelets was reduced in 12/13 patients. VWF:CB/VWF:Ag ratios were pathologically decreased in 2/13 patients and elevated in 2/13 patients. Critically ill COVID-19 patients exhibit platelet secretion defects independent of thrombocytopenia. Platelet exhaustion and VWF dysfunction may result in impaired primary hemostasis and should be considered when treating coagulopathy in these patients

Download or read book Autoimmunity COVID 19 Post COVID19 Syndrome and COVID 19 Vaccination written by Yehuda Shoenfeld and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2022-12-03 with total page 832 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Autoimmunity, COVID-19, Post-COVID-19 Syndrome and COVID-19 Vaccination covers all aspects of what is perhaps the most dramatic health crisis in the history of modern medicine. Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) raised major concerns about the association between the virus and various autoimmune manifestations. Over 15 distinct autoantibodies and above 10 different autoimmune diseases were found to develop in COVID-19 patients. Moreover, evidence about recovered COVID-19 patients demonstrates that persistent systemic symptoms, which are believed to have an autoimmune-related mechanism, do exist. As it is of great importance to recognize those autoimmune manifestations of COVID-19 and post-COVID-19 syndrome to properly cope with their outcomes in the ongoing pandemic and the long-term post-pandemic period, this book fulfills a vital need in the medical community. Describe the short and long impact of COVID-19 on autoimmunity Provides understanding to the acute and chronic impact of the SARS-CoV-2 Gives insights into the long-term effects of COVID-19 on recovered patients Provides conclusions on the novel terms "chronic post-COVID-19 syndrome", "post-acute COVID-19 syndrome", and "long COVID-19"

Download or read book Chronotherapeutics written by P. H. Redfern and published by Pharmaceutical Press. This book was released on 2003 with total page 456 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In nature, many physical processes are governed by the passage of time. The study of these processes - chronobiology - reveals rhythmic patterns which may be yearly, monthly, daily or more frequent. Novel drug delivery systems are currently being delivered that will release varying quantities of a drug at optimum times to coincide with these rhythmic patterns.Chronotherapeutics considers the pharmaceutical and therapeutic implications associated with biological clocks. The book presents a comprehensive discussion of specific diseases that are time dependent, and the drugs and new drug formulations that can be used as treatments.Written by leading international experts in the field, Chronotherapeutics provides up-to-date information on chronobiology for non-chronobiologists in pharmaceutical and medical sciences. Peter Redfern is Professor of Pharmacology at the University of Bath, UK.
