Shaymaa Alhabib on Piezo1 Mutation and Platelet Preactivation State

Shaymaa Alhabib, Student at Bicêtre Hospital, shared on LinkedIn:

”I’m happy to share a study I participated in, now published in the Journal of Thrombosis and Haemostasis

This study shows that Piezo1 gain-of-function mutations prolong channel opening, leading to sustained calcium entry into platelets.

This primes platelets into a preactivated state, helping explain the thrombotic risk in hereditary xerocytosis patients.

A huge thanks to my supervisor Régis Bobe, for the opportunity to be part of this work, and of course to the group headed by Dr. Chrislla Bachelot-Loza for their excellent work!”
