Platelet Function, Role in Thrombosis, Inflammation, and Consequences in Chronic Myeloproliferative Disorders
Platelets are conventionally defined as playing a vital role in homeostasis and thrombosis. This role has over the years transformed as knowledge regarding platelets has expanded to include inflammation, cancer progression, and metastasis. Upon platelet activation and subsequent aggregation, platele...
