SARS-CoV-2 binds platelet ACE2 to enhance thrombosis in COVID-19

open access: yesJournal of Hematology & Oncology, 2020
Background Critically ill patients diagnosed with COVID-19 may develop a pro-thrombotic state that places them at a dramatically increased lethal risk. Although platelet activation is critical for thrombosis and is responsible for the thrombotic events ...

Platelet activation.

open access: yesArteriosclerosis, 2020
Platelets are discoidal cytoplasmic particles that respond to a variety of stimuli by developing filopodia and rounding up (shape change), developing the ability to bind fibrinogen from the medium, and, with strong stimuli such as thrombin and PAF ...

Platelet-rich plasma: Growth factor enhancement for bone grafts.

open access: yesOral surgery, oral medicine, oral pathology, oral radiology, and endodontics, 1998
Platelet-rich plasma is an autologous source of platelet-derived growth factor and transforming growth factor beta that is obtained by sequestering and concentrating platelets by gradient density centrifugation. This technique produced a concentration of
