Platelets are the first defenders of vascular integrity, responding to vascular injury in a regulated sequence of adhesion, activation, and aggregation that enables form [...]

Formation of a hemostatic clot is essential for minimizing blood loss upon injury and is mediated, in part, by tightly regulated activity of and crosstalk between platele [...]

The prevention of bleeding and protection of the vascular wall integrity is mediated by the blood cells platelets and enzymatic coagulation reactions in a process called [...]

Hemostasis is the process of sealing a vascular leak through concomitant activation of the blood coagulation cascade and blood platelet adhesion to and activation by the [...]

Platelets are the first responders to vascular injury, playing a critical role in the formation of a hemostatic plug to stop and prevent blood loss. This process requires [...]
