Notch signaling functions in noncanonical juxtacrine manner in platelets to amplify thrombogenicity
Background: Notch signaling dictates cell fate decisions in mammalian cells including megakaryocytes. Existence of functional Notch signaling in enucleate platelets remains elusive.

SARS-CoV-2 binds platelet ACE2 to enhance thrombosis in COVID-19
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-rich plasma: Growth factor enhancement for bone grafts.
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
