Platelets and Anti-platelet Therapy
Platelets play a central role in the hemostatic process and consequently are similarly involved in the pathological counterpart, thrombosis. They adhere to various subendothelial proteins, exposed either by injury or disease, and subsequently become activated by the thrombogenic surface or locally produced agonists.

Effects of exercise on platelet reactivity after myocardial infarction: a randomized clinical trial
Exercise training (ET) can lower platelet reactivity in patients with cardiovascular risk factors. However, the effects of ET on platelet reactivity in higher-risk patients is unknown.

Roles of non-coding RNA in megakaryocytopoiesis and thrombopoiesis: new target therapies in ITP
Noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs) are a group of RNA molecules that cannot encode proteins, and a better understanding of the complex interaction networks coordinated by ncRNAs will provide a theoretical basis for the development of therapeutics targeting the ...

Apoptosis is one cause of thrombocytopenia in patients with high-altitude polycythemia
High-altitude polycythemia (HAPC) can occur in individuals who are intolerant to high-altitude hypoxia. In patients with HAPC, erythrocytosis is often accompanied by a decrease in platelet count.

Circulating platelets maintain low cytosolic Ca2+ concentrations. At sites of vascular injury, agonist-induced Ca2+ release from platelet intracellular stores triggers influx of extracellular Ca2+, a process known as store-operated Ca2+ entry (SOCE ...

Evaluation of human platelet granules by structured illumination laser fluorescence microscopy
Many roles of human platelets in health and disease are linked to their ability to transport and secrete a variety of small molecules and proteins carried in dense (δ-) and α-granules.

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.
