Platelets act as multifunctional cells participating in immune response, inflammation, allergy,
tissue regeneration, and lymphoangiogenesis. Among the best-established aspects of a role …

Over the past few decades the central role that platelets play in cancer development and
progression, and especially in metastasis, has been elucidated. The molecular mechanisms …

Platelets are well-known for their major role in primary hemostasis and thrombosis. Cancer
patients frequently manifest thrombotic events and present abnormalities in blood …

Platelets are involved in the development and progression of cancer through several
mechanisms. Platelet activation at the site of tissue damage contributes to the initiation of a …

Introduction The association between thrombosis, cancer and inflammation is well-
established. Platelets play a major role in atherosclerosis, inflammation and immune …

Platelets are anucleated cells that circulate in the blood as sentinels of tissue integrity. In
fact, they are rich in a plethora of proteins and other factors stored in different granules which …

Traditionally viewed as major cellular components in hemostasis and thrombosis, the
contribution of platelets to the progression of cancer is an emerging area of research …

Cancer-related venous thromboembolism (VTE) is frequent and constitutes the second
leading cause of death in patients with cancer. High platelet count is one of independent …

Platelets are highly reactive components of the circulatory system, which exert not only
haemostatic activity but also contribute to the modulation of various pathological conditions …

The successful growth and dissemination of tumors are dependent on a multitude of cancer
cell intrinsic and extrinsic factors. A growing body of work, both observational and …
