Over time, a growing amount of clinical evidence has emerged, offering a robust basis for its applications.However, in certain clinical scenarios, TXA appears to be less effective, highlighting the need for further research into its mechanisms of action beyond its well-known antifibrinolytic effects. One area of particular interest is the interaction between TXA and blood cells, especially red blood cells (RBCs). This interaction has garnered significant attention due to intriguing findings from large clinical trials, such as the WOMAN-1 and -2 studies, which evaluated the efficacy of TXA in preventing bleeding in postpartum hemorrhage, a major childbirth complication. These trials revealed that TXA was less effective in anemic patients, raising important questions about its broader mechanisms of action.Emerging evidence suggests that the relationship between TXA and blood cells plays a crucial role at various stages of hemostasis, expanding its established role in fibrinolysis inhibition. Recent investigations into the interactions between TXA and RBCs have been particularly compelling and may provide valuable insights for improving clinical outcomes.This review provides a fresh look at the interplay between RBCs, TXA, and the hemostatic system, focusing on basic molecular mechanisms and their potential implications for clinical practice.</p>","PeriodicalId":21673,"journal":{"name":"Seminars in thrombosis and hemostasis","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.6,"publicationDate":"2025-06-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144216764","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In particular, the findings from numerous prospective cohort studies indicate that stress and hemostatic factors of a hypercoagulable state are associated with increased incident risk and poor prognosis for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease and venous thromboembolism. Mendelian randomization studies suggest that these associations are partially causal. The review synthesizes extensive research on the link between acute and chronic stress and hypercoagulability, outlining a potential pathway from stress to thrombosis risk. Consistent with the allostatic load concept, acute stress-induced hypercoagulability, initially adaptive, can turn maladaptive under chronic stress or excessive acute stress, leading to arterial or venous thrombotic events. Individuals with predisposing factors, including atherosclerosis, thrombophilia, or immobilization, may exhibit an increased risk of thrombotic disease during stress. Contextual sociodemographic characteristics, the stress experience, and coping resources additionally modulate the extent of stress-induced hypercoagulability. Research into the neuroendocrine, cellular, and molecular bases reveals how stress influences platelet activation coagulation and fibrinolysis. The activation of the sympathetic nervous system and the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis, along with vagal withdrawal, and the effects of catecholamines, cortisol, and vasopressin, are the central mechanisms involved. Hemoconcentration, inflammation, endothelial dysfunction, and thrombopoiesis additionally contribute to stress-induced hypercoagulability. Further research is needed to prove a causal link between chronic stress and hypercoagulability. This includes exploring its implications for the prevention and management of thrombotic diseases in stressed individuals, with a focus on developing effective psychosocial and pharmacological interventions.</p>","PeriodicalId":21673,"journal":{"name":"Seminars in thrombosis and hemostasis","volume":" ","pages":"381-400"},"PeriodicalIF":3.6,"publicationDate":"2025-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141446982","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Although the concept of sepsis caused by bacteria has been well investigated, the fungal impact in the complexity of sepsis-related hemostatic derangement is not yet fully unraveled. In addition, sepsis occurs in patients across all age groups, with a particular concern for neonates, whose immature and vulnerable systems amplify the challenges. Notably, despite the high incidence of fungal septicemia in neonatal intensive care units (NICUs), along with its significant morbidity, mortality, and adverse neonatal outcomes, the impact of fungal sepsis on the neonatal hemostatic system-an essential determinant of prognosis-remains largely unexplored. The present review delves into the pathophysiologic mechanisms of sepsis-induced coagulopathy attributed to fungal infection, the mechanisms of fungal involvement in the hemostatic derangement, and attempts to contextualize this knowledge within the unique neonatal population.

Assays to diagnose and monitor these disorders, such as von Willebrand factor activity assays and light transmission aggregometry, are performed in specialized hemostasis laboratories but are commonly not available in local hospitals. Due to the complexity and relative scarcity of these conventional assays, point-of-care tests (POCT) might be an attractive alternative in patients with hereditary bleeding disorders. POCTs, such as thromboelastography, are increasingly used to assess hemostasis in patients with acquired hemostatic defects, aiding clinical decision-making in critical situations, such as during surgery or childbirth. In comparison, the use of these assays in patients with hereditary hemostasis defects remains relatively unexplored. This review aims to give an overview of point-of-care hemostasis tests in patients with hereditary disorders of primary hemostasis. A summary of the literature reporting on the performance of currently available and experimental POCTs in these disorders is given, and the potential utility of the assays in various use scenarios is discussed. Altogether, the studies included in this review reveal that several POCTs are capable of identifying and monitoring severe defects in the primary hemostasis, while a POCT that can reliably detect milder defects of primary hemostasis is currently lacking. A better understanding of the strengths and limitations of POCTs in assessing hereditary defects of primary hemostasis is needed, after which these tests may become available for clinical practice, potentially targeting a large group of patients with milder defects of primary hemostasis.</p>","PeriodicalId":21673,"journal":{"name":"Seminars in thrombosis and hemostasis","volume":" ","pages":"541-559"},"PeriodicalIF":3.6,"publicationDate":"2025-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12165736/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141477389","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Recent research highlights the essential role of PDGF in the modulation of hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells (HSPCs), megakaryocytes/platelets, and thrombopoietin (TPO) synthesis within the bone marrow microenvironment. PDGF directly stimulates the proliferation and differentiation of HSPCs while also inhibiting apoptosis. In addition, PDGF indirectly enhances the production of other growth factors, including granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factors. Further, PDGF regulates TPO production and influences the bone marrow milieu, thus impacting hematopoiesis and platelet formation. Mechanistically, PDGF binds to its receptor, PDGF receptor (PDGFR), thus activating the PDGF/PDGFR signaling pathway. This pathway subsequently activates phosphoinositide 3-kinase/protein kinase B, leading to the activation of downstream cytokines, including c-Fos and NF-E2, while inhibiting caspase-3 activation. Collectively, these actions have prodifferentiation and antiapoptotic effects on megakaryocytes, thereby regulating platelet production.
