Microfluidic flow chambers using reconstituted blood to model hemostasis and platelet transfusion in vitro [PDF]
Blood platelets prepared for transfusion gradually lose hemostatic function during storage. Platelet function can be investigated using a variety of (indirect) in vitro experiments, but none of these is as comprehensive as microfluidic flow chambers.

A comparison of haematopoietic stem cells from umbilical cord blood and peripheral blood for platelet production in a microfluidic device [PDF]
Background and objectives: Several sources of haematopoietic stem cells have been used for static culture of megakaryocytes to produce platelets in vitro.

Perbedaan Hitung Jumlah Trombosit Menggunakan Darah Vena dan Darah Kapiler
Background: Platelets play a role in hemostasis which is the body's mechanisms to prevent and stop the bleeding. Platelets participate in the effort to close the wound, so that the body does not experience a loss of blood and protected from foreign cells.

Assessment of neonatal, cord, and adult platelet granule trafficking and secretion
Despite the transient hyporeactivity of neonatal platelets, full-term neonates do not display a bleeding tendency, suggesting potential compensatory mechanisms which allow for balanced and efficient neonatal hemostasis.

Platelet kinetics in the pulmonary microcirculation in vivo assessed by intravital microscopy [PDF]
Growing evidence supports the substantial pathophysiological impact of platelets on the development of acute lung injury. Methods for studying these cellular mechanisms in vivo are not present yet.

Relationship between the Increased Haemostatic Properties of Blood Platelets and Oxidative Stress Level in Multiple Sclerosis Patients with the Secondary Progressive Stage [PDF]
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is the autoimmune disease of the central nervous system with complex pathogenesis, different clinical courses and recurrent neurological relapses and/or progression. Despite various scientific papers that focused on early stage of

Citrate is the recommended anticoagulant for studies on plasma extracellular vesicles (EVs). Because citrate incompletely blocks platelet activation and the release of platelet-derived EVs, we compared EDTA and citrate in that regard.

Adenosine and blood platelets [PDF]
Adenosine is an important regulatory metabolite and an inhibitor of platelet activation. Adenosine released from different cells or generated through the activity of cell-surface ectoenzymes exerts its effects through the binding of four different G-protein-coupled adenosine receptors.

Quantitative structural mechanobiology of platelet-driven blood clot contraction. [PDF]
Blood clot contraction plays an important role in prevention of bleeding and in thrombotic disorders. Here, we unveil and quantify the structural mechanisms of clot contraction at the level of single platelets.

Dose-dependent effect of canine lyophilized platelet on an in vitro hemodilution model
The transfusion of stored platelets has emerged as an efficient method for treating dogs with thrombocytopenia. However, the availability of fresh platelets is limited in veterinary medicine due to demanding storage conditions. Lyophilized platelets have
