Aggregation of platelets by collagen [PDF]
In studying some of the properties of collagen responsible for the ability to aggregate platelets it was found that thermal treatment at pH 2.5 of acid-soluble human collagen resulted in a sharp reduction in relative viscosity and platelet aggregating activity at about 35 degrees C.

Correlation Between P-Selectin Level and Platelet Aggregation in Cerebral Venous Sinus Thrombosis Patients [PDF]
One of the causes of cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST) is platelet hyperactivity. Adhesion and secretion are the beginning of platelet activation, which is indicated by a change in the Platelet-selectin (P-selectin) level.
