“…10 Similarly, increased platelet aggregation in response to endothelin could contribute to thrombosis. 11 As a result of activation, platelets change from the normal disc shape to a sphere with long, dendritic extensions that facilitate adhesion.…”

“…One of the fi rst reports by Wu et al [1] suggested that enhanced platelet aggregation in platelet aggregometry might be an important risk factor for recurrent venous thrombosis. Breddin et al [2] demonstrated a positive correlation between spontaneously enhanced platelet aggregation and vascular occlusions. Similar fi ndings were observed for idiopathic thrombosis in childhood [3] .…”

“…Spontaneous platelet aggregation, defined as formation of small aggregates under constant stirring in the absence of any agonists, is rare in healthy individuals but seen in some cases of von Willebrand disease [132], in some patients with diabetes [133] and in some lipid disorders [134], and may be an indicator of an ongoing active atherosclerotic process [135]. platelets and megakaryocytes is given by Woulfe et al [173].…”
