The Stimulatory Effect of Platelets and Platelet Membranes on the Procoagulant Activity of Leukocytes
AUTOR(ES)
Niemetz, Julian
RESUMO
Leukocytes can generate procoagulant (tissue factor) activity when incubated with endotoxin. These studies were undertaken to determine whether platelets could influence the procoagulant activity generated by leukocytes. Intact or disrupted platelets (rabbit or human) enhanced the clot-promoting properties of rabbit leukocytes.
