Assessment of neonatal, cord, and adult platelet granule trafficking and secretion
Despite the transient hyporeactivity of neonatal platelets, full-term neonates do not display a bleeding tendency, suggesting potential compensatory mechanisms which allow for balanced and efficient neonatal hemostasis.

Platelet-mediated metabolism of the common dietary flavonoid, quercetin. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Flavonoid metabolites remain in blood for periods of time potentially long enough to allow interactions with cellular components of this tissue.

Analysis of adenoviral attachment to human platelets
Background Systemic adenoviral (Ad) vector administration is associated with thrombocytopenia. Recently, Ad interaction with mouse platelets emerged as a key player determining liver uptake and platelet clearance.

Platelets are recognized to be physiologically and functionally heterogeneous. An example of the diversity in reactivity is the formation of a distinct subpopulation of procoagulant phosphatidylserine (PS)-exposing platelets upon activation. Platelet age

The trans-sialidase from Trypanosoma cruzi induces thrombocytopenia during acute Chagas' disease by reducing the platelet sialic acid contents [PDF]
Strong thrombocytopenia is observed during acute infection with Trypanosoma cruzi, the parasitic protozoan agent of American trypanosomiasis or Chagas' disease.

Humanized mouse models for inherited thrombocytopenia studies
Inherited thrombocytopenia (IT) is a group of hereditary disorders characterized by a reduced platelet count as the main clinical manifestation, and often with abnormal platelet function, which can subsequently lead to impaired hemostasis.

MYH9-related disorder (MYH9-RD) is autosomal dominant thrombocytopenia caused by mutations in the MYH9 gene, which codes for the non-muscle myosin-IIA heavy chain. We present a case of a 24-year-old Chinese man with MYH9-RD who was initially misdiagnosed

Differential expression of exosomal microRNAs in fresh and senescent apheresis platelet concentrates
Patients have a high risk of suffering adverse reactions after receiving platelet products stored for 5 days. Bioactive exosomes in platelet products can be accumulated during storage, which is associated with adverse reactions.

Platelets play an essential role in maintaining vascular integrity after injury. In addition, platelets contribute to the immune response to pathogens. For instance, they express receptors that mediate binding of viruses, and toll-like receptors that activate the cell in response to pathogen-associated molecular patterns.

While several small studies have found that selenium deficiency is associated with low platelet counts, they lack generalizability. We used data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Surveys collected over a 12-year period.
