Phosphodiesterases are a diverse family of enzymes that hydrolyse cyclic nucleotides and
thus play a key role in regulating intracellular levels of the second messengers cAMP and …

Platelets are necessary for lung leukocyte recruitment in a murine model of allergic
inflammation, and platelet–leukocyte aggregates are formed in circulating blood of patients with …

Background: The role of platelets in inflammation is recognized but poorly characterized, and
little is known of their interaction with leukocytes. However, platelet-leukocyte interactions …

Objective To investigate the involvement of transient receptor potential ankyrin 1 (TRPA1) in

Phosphodiesterases (PDEs) are a family of enzymes which catalyse the metabolism of the
intracellular cyclic nucleotides, c-AMP and c-GMP that are expressed in a variety of cell types …

Asthma is associated with airway remodeling. Evidence of platelet recruitment to the lungs
of asthmatics after allergen exposure suggests platelets participate in various aspects of …

Advances in manufacturing process technology are key ensembles for the production of
integrated circuits in the sub-micrometer region. It is of paramount importance to assess the …
