Other mechanisms include platelet activation with shortening of survival, splenic platelet sequestration and impaired platelet production in the bone marrow. Virus-induced platelet activation and ...

Researchers explore the role of a high-fat diet in promoting the formation of premetastatic niches and platelet activation.

Dr. Woulfe's research interests focus primarily on the intracellular signaling mechanisms of platelet activation and how signaling in platelets contributes to thrombosis in vivo. Agonists that extend ...

different signaling molecules were activated depending on the endpoint. Using human platelet-rich plasma, the researchers found that when certain signaling molecules were inhibited, spreading was ...

CNIO researchers found that in mice on high-fat diets, cancer cells in the bloodstream use platelets as a protective shield, aiding their spread. This fatty diet also makes it easier for tumor cells ...

[97–99] There are two main causes for the bacteria-induced thrombocytopenia: Bacteria induce platelet activation. Activated platelets show shortened survival and are targets of phagocytic ...
