Platelet releasates promote the proliferation of hepatocellular carcinoma cells by suppressing the expression of KLF6
Abstract Platelets in the primary tumor microenvironment play crucial roles in the regulation of tumor progression, but the mechanisms underlying are poorly understood. Here, we report that platelet releasates exerted a proliferative effect on hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cells both in vitro and i...

Abstract Platelets in the primary tumor microenvironment play crucial roles in the regulation of tumor progression, but the mechanisms underlying are poorly understood.

This effect depended on a reduction of KLF6 expression in HCC cells. After incubation with either platelets or platelet granule contents, SMMC.7721 and HepG2 cells exhibited significant increases in proliferation and decreases in apoptosis.
