question:
Integrin-mediated platelet adhesion and aggregation are essential for sealing injured blood vessels and preventing blood loss, and excessive platelet aggregation can initiate arterial thrombosis, causing heart attacks and stroke. To ensure that platelets aggregate only at injury sites, integrins on circulating platelets exist in a low-affinity state and shift to a high-affinity state (in a process known as integrin activation or priming) after contacting a wounded vessel. The shift is mediated through binding of the cytoskeletal protein Talin to the subunit cytoplasmic tail. Here we show that platelets lacking the adhesion plaque protein Kindlin-3 cannot activate integrins despite normal Talin expression. As a direct consequence, Kindlin-3 deficiency results in severe bleeding and resistance to arterial thrombosis. Mechanistically, Kindlin-3 can directly bind to regions of -integrin tails distinct from those of Talin and trigger integrin activation. We have therefore identified Kindlin-3 as a novel and essential element for platelet integrin activation in hemostasis and thrombosis.
answer:
Kindlin-3 is essential for integrin activation and platelet aggregation

question:
The localization and synthesis of basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) in the rat carotid artery were investigated at times of chronic smooth muscle cell proliferation. Immunocytochemical staining showed the presence of bFGF in the uninjured arterial wall, and after balloon injury, this cellular staining was decreased. Western and northern blot analyses likewise showed that the amount of bFGF protein and mRNA decreased after injury. A neutralizing antibody to bFGF was administered 4 and 5 days after injury and was found to have no effect on intimal smooth muscle cell proliferation. These data suggest that an increase in the expression of bFGF is not necessary for chronic smooth muscle cell proliferation observed after balloon catheter injury and that bFGF is not the major mitogen responsible for intimal smooth muscle cell proliferation.
answer:
Intimal smooth muscle cell proliferation after balloon catheter injury. The role of basic fibroblast growth factor.

question:
Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) are webs of DNA covered with antimicrobial molecules that constitute a newly described killing mechanism in innate immune defense. Previous publications reported that NETs take up to 3-4 h to form via an oxidant-dependent event that requires lytic death of neutrophils. In this study, we describe neutrophils responding uniquely to Staphylococcus aureus via a novel process of NET formation that did not require neutrophil lysis or even breach of the plasma membrane. The multilobular nucleus rapidly became rounded and condensed. During this process, we observed the separation of the inner and outer nuclear membranes and budding of vesicles, and the separated membranes and vesicles were filled with nuclear DNA. The vesicles were extruded intact into the extracellular space where they ruptured, and the chromatin was released. This entire process occurred via a unique, very rapid (5-60 min), oxidant-independent mechanism. Mitochondrial DNA constituted very little if any of these NETs. They did have a limited amount of proteolytic activity and were able to kill S. aureus. With time, the nuclear envelope ruptured, and DNA filled the cytoplasm presumably for later lytic NET production, but this was distinct from the vesicular release mechanism. Panton-Valentine leukocidin, autolysin, and a lipase were identified in supernatants with NET-inducing activity, but Panton-Valentine leukocidin was the dominant NET inducer. We describe a new mechanism of NET release that is very rapid and contributes to trapping and killing of S. aureus.
answer:
A novel mechanism of rapid nuclear neutrophil extracellular trap formation in response to Staphylococcus aureus.
