Platelet activation and atherothrombosis
This review of the role of platelets in atherothrombosis illuminates the surprisingly numerous
activities of these tiny, anucleate cells and stresses their participation in the inflammatory
component of atherothrombosis. The information is presented in the context of the
prevention of atherothrombosis by antiplatelet agents now in clinical use.
