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 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 …

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 …

There is now a large body of evidence that platelets are central actors of inflammatory
reactions. Indeed, platelets play a significant role in a variety of inflammatory diseases …

Platelets actively participate in inflammatory processes and drive diseases such as
atherosclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis and cancer metastasis. However, platelets also have …

Platelets have classically been considered crucial effector cells in hemostasis, but now are
increasingly recognized as players during inflammatory responses in innate and adaptive …

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 are megakaryocyte-derived cellular fragments, which lack a nucleus and are the
smallest circulating cells and are classically known to have a major role in supporting …

In recent years, various studies have increasingly explained platelet functions not only in
their central role as a regulator in cellular hemostasis and coagulation. In fact, there is …
