Immersed boundary simulations of cell-cell interactions in whole blood [PDF]
, 2021 We present a new method for the geometric reconstruction of elastic surfaces simulated by the immersed boundary method with the goal of simulating the motion and interactions of cells in whole blood. Our method uses parameter-free radial basis functions for high-order meshless parametric reconstruction of point clouds and the elastic force computations

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021 Although platelets and the coagulation factors are components of the blood system, they become part of and contribute to the tumor microenvironment (TME) not only within a solid tumor mass, but also within a hematogenous micrometastasis on its way ...

Presence and activity of Fibrinogen like protein 2 in platelets.
PLoS ONE, 2023 BackgroundFibrinogen-like protein 2 (FGL2) is a serine protease capable of converting prothrombin into thrombin (i.e., prothrombinase-like activity) while bypassing the classic coagulation cascade.

Microfluidic flow chambers using reconstituted blood to model hemostasis and platelet transfusion in vitro [PDF]
, 2016 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.

Platelet kinetics in the pulmonary microcirculation in vivo assessed by intravital microscopy [PDF]
, 2002 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.

BLOOD-PLATELETS AND TUBERCULOSIS [PDF]
Archives of Internal Medicine, 1914 So little is known concerning blood-platelets, and so little interest has been taken in them, that their description by Adami and Nichols 1 is almost fully quoted. If only because they play so important a part in the process of thrombosis it is necessary to have a clear understanding regarding the blood-platelets, or, more accurately, regarding what ...

Journal of Health (JOH), 2016 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
Platelets, 2020 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.
