Abstract

Platelets are the second most abundant blood cell type in the circulation and are key players in hemostasis and thrombosis. Activation of platelets by soluble ligands or subendothelial exposure of collagen, von Willebrand factor (vWF) or tissue factor (TF) results in upregulation of membrane-bound glycoproteins/integrins and granule release. Integrins or soluble glycoproteins
