A team from Würzburg has fundamentally changed our understanding of platelet biology. The researchers demonstrate that the ...

Scientists have discovered a hitherto unknown function of blood platelets in cancer. In mouse models, these platelets have proved to help preserve the vascular barrier which makes blood-vessel walls ...

Study of the bleeding tendency in uremia in 26 subjects, 10 of whom were bleeding, showed platelet counts and plasma coagulation factors to be normal. There was a significant inverse correlation ...

Platelets are small, anucleate blood cells that play an essential role in hemostasis. Their primary task is to recognize vascular injury, become activated, and aggregate via their surface receptor ...

No prospective trials have demonstrated improved outcomes associated with individually tailored therapy based on the results of platelet function or genetic testing, but some study data still indicate ...

WASHINGTON, DC—Additional evidence, this time from a phase IIb trial in healthy people ages 50 to 80, supports that bentracimab (PhaseBio) provides a near-immediate reversal of ticagrelor’s ...

Scientists at Uppsala University have discovered a hitherto unknown function of blood platelets in cancer. In mouse models, these platelets have proved to help preserve the vascular barrier which ...
