[HTML][HTML] Protein synthesis by platelets: historical and new perspectives
AS Weyrich, H Schwertz, LW Kraiss… - Journal of thrombosis …, 2009 - Elsevier
In the late 1960s, numerous investigators independently demonstrated that platelets are
capable of synthesizing proteins. Studies continued at a steady pace over the next 30 years
and into the 21st century. Collectively, these investigations confirmed that platelets
synthesize proteins and that the pattern of protein synthesis changes in response to cellular
activation. More recent studies have characterized the mechanisms by which platelets
synthesize proteins and have shown that protein synthesis alters the phenotype and …
