The incredible journey: From megakaryocyte development to platelet formation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Circulating blood platelets are specialized cells that prevent bleeding and minimize blood vessel injury. Large progenitor cells in the bone marrow called megakaryocytes (MKs) are the source of platelets.

Platelet Function in Platelet Concentrates and in Whole Blood [PDF]

open access: yesAnaesthesia and Intensive Care, 1985
Platelet function was studied in CPD whole blood stored at 4°C for one and three days and in platelet concentrates stored at room temperature for the same periods of time. Comparisons were made of platelet shape, nucleotide content, β-thromboglobulin (βTG) liberated during storage, and platelet aggregation in response to ADP, collagen, sodium ...

Binding of adenosine diphosphate to human blood platelets and to isolated blood platelet membranes [PDF]

open access: yesBiochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - General Subjects, 1980
The equilibrium binding of 14C-labeled ADP to intact washed human blood platelets and to platelet membranes was investigated. With both intact platelets and platelet membranes a similar concentration dependence curve was found. It consisted of a curvilinear part below 20 microM and a rectilinear part above this concentration. At high ADP concentrations,
