Platelets are most often recognized for their crucial role in the control of acute hemorrhage.
However, current research has greatly expanded the appreciation of platelets beyond their …

Although the function of platelets in the maintenance of hemostasis has been studied in
great detail, more recent evidence has highlighted a central role for platelets in the host …

Platelets are among the most abundant cells in the mammalian circulation. Classical platelet
functions in hemostasis and wound healing have been intensively explored and are …

Platelets have long been known for their role in hemostasis. In this, platelet adhesion and
activation leads to the formation of a firm thrombus and thus the sealing of a damaged blood …

Systemic inflammatory responses are associated with high morbidity and mortality and
represent a diverse and clinically challenging group of diseases. Platelets are increasingly …

The paradigm of platelets as mere mediators of hemostasis has long since been replaced by
a dual role: hemostasis and inflammation. Now recognized as key players in innate and …

Although platelets are traditionally recognized for their central role in hemostasis, many lines
of research clearly demonstrate these rather ubiquitous blood components are potent …

Platelets are well characterized for their indispensable role in primary hemostasis to control
hemorrhage. Research over the past years has provided a substantial body of evidence …

Beyond their traditional role in haemostasis and thrombosis, platelets are increasingly
recognised as immune modulatory cells. Activated platelets and platelet-derived …

Platelets occupy a central role at the interface between thrombosis and inflammation. At
sites of vascular damage, adherent platelets physically and functionally interact with …
