Platelets are small, anucleate blood cells that play an essential role in hemostasis. Their primary task is to recognize vascular injury, become activated, and aggregate via their surface receptor ...

Platelets are tiny cell fragments in blood circulation in charge of the prevention of bleedings. However, in systemic lupus erythematosus (lupus), our studies and that of others demonstrate that ...

In a recent study published in Nature Communications, researchers from the United States of America investigated the association between platelet hyperreactivity and the risk of cardiovascular events.

In the mid-19th century, they were first observed as small spheres in the blood, and by the turn of the century, their function in blood clotting, known as haemostasis, and the development of ...

Platelets are small types of blood cells that prevent excessive bleeding. It’s possible to develop low or high platelet counts related to a number of health conditions. Platelets are one of the main ...

A simple blood test for platelet activity at middle age could one day help identify people at risk for Alzheimer's disease decades ahead of time, allowing for possible preventive therapy. The ...
