New biologic activities of platelets continue to be discovered, indicating that concepts of
platelet function in hemostasis, thrombosis, and inflammation require reconsideration as …

Preclinical studies have suggested that platelets influence the host response during sepsis.
We sought to assess the association of admission thrombocytopenia with the presentation …

Platelets have a crucial role in the maintenance of hemostasis as well as in thrombosis and
vessel occlusion, which underlie stroke and acute coronary syndromes. Anucleate platelets …

IFN-α exercises multiple immune modulatory and antiviral activities and has been suggested
to play a critical role in the pathogenesis of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) …

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) regulate cell physiology by altering protein expression, but the biology
of platelet miRNAs is largely unexplored. We tested whether platelet miRNA levels were …

Previous studies have suggested that plasminogen activator inhibitor 1 (PAI-1) released
from platelets convey resistance of platelet-rich blood clots to thrombolysis. However, the …

The source and significance of bloodborne tissue factor (TF) are controversial. TF mRNA,
