DOI: 10.1016/j.bbi.2016.09.021
Abstract: Studies have demonstrated separately that hypertension is associated with platelet activation in the periphery (resulting in accumulation and localized inflammatory response) and glial activation in the brain. We investigated the contribution of platelets in brain… read more here.
