Oral platelet gel supernatant plus supportive medical treatment versus supportive medical treatment in the management of radiation-induced oral mucositis: a matched explorative active control trial by propensity analysis [PDF]
OBJECTIVES:: In this active control trial, the rate of radio-induced WHO grade 3/4 oral mucositis and the change in quality of life, assessed by OMWQ-HN, were measured in subjects with head and neck cancer treated by platelet gel supernatant (PGS) and ...

Platelet monoamine oxidase activity in alcoholics with and without a family history of alcoholism [PDF]
A number of studies point at platelet monoamine oxidase (MAO) activity being reduced in alcoholics with a family history of drinking, this being a possible vulnerability marker for alcoholism.

Serotonin reuptake inhibitors and cardiovascular disease [PDF]
Selective serotonin re-uptake inhibiting drugs (SSRIs) are widely used for endogenous depression. In addition to depleting the nerve terminals of serotonin they also lower blood platelet serotonin levels.

A megakaryocyte with no platelets: Anti-platelet antibodies, apoptosis, and platelet production
Primary immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) and drug-induced thrombocytopenia (DITP) are disorders caused primarily by the presence of anti-platelet auto-antibodies (Abs). Hematologists have traditionally seen thrombocytopenia as the result of increased destruction of Ab-coated platelets by the reticuloendothelial system.
