Rupture Forces among Human Blood Platelets at different Degrees of Activation [PDF]
, 2020 Little is known about mechanics underlying the interaction among platelets during activation and aggregation. Although the strength of a blood thrombus has likely major biological importance, no previous study has measured directly the adhesion forces of single platelet-platelet interaction at different activation states.

Immersed boundary simulations of cell-cell interactions in whole blood [PDF]
, 2021 We present a new method for the geometric reconstruction of elastic surfaces simulated by the immersed boundary method with the goal of simulating the motion and interactions of cells in whole blood. Our method uses parameter-free radial basis functions for high-order meshless parametric reconstruction of point clouds and the elastic force computations

Assessing the periprocedural magnitude of platelet count change in response to lusutrombopag
JHEP Reports, 2021 Background & Aims: Despite limitations, platelet transfusion has been used to minimise bleeding risk in patients with thrombocytopaenia. Lusutrombopag is an oral, thrombopoietin receptor agonist approved for treatment of thrombocytopaenia associated ...
