  • Title: [Blood platelets: biochemistry and physiology].
    Author: Kehrel BE.
    Journal: Hamostaseologie; 2003 Nov; 23(4):149-58. PubMed ID: 14603379.
    Abstract:
    This article reviews the roles of blood platelets in different physiologic and pathologic processes in the human body. Besides the basic processes in primary haemostasis, platelet adhesion, platelet secretion, platelet aggregation, clot retraction, the new model of thrombin formation on the platelet surface is presented. The different signal transduction pathways in platelets are a main focus of this review.
