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

Journal 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.

Arteriosclerosis, 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 ...

Myricetin, the main flavonoid in Syzygium cumini leaf, is a novel inhibitor of platelet thiol isomerases PDI and ERp5 [PDF]

, 2020
Background: Flavonoids have been characterized as a prominent class of compounds to treat thrombotic diseases through the inhibition of thiol isomerases. Syzygium cumini is a flavonoid-rich medicinal plant that contains myricetin and gallic acid.
