DOI: 10.1002/hep.31101
Abstract: Recent studies have identified several pleiotropic effects of platelets on liver homeostasis and disease distinct from their long-recognized roles in hemostasis and coagulation. Concerns for bleeding have traditionally limited the use of anti-platelet agents in… read more here.

DOI: 10.1160/th16-12-0921
Abstract: Platelets actively participate in inflammatory processes and drive diseases such as atherosclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis and cancer metastasis. However, platelets also have anti-inflammatory and anti-infective properties, which have received less consideration in the past. In this… read more here.
