Genetically determined platelet traits impact stroke risk through multiple mechanisms and cell types
2025-08-05
Abstract excerpt
Stroke remains a leading cause of death and disability worldwide. Current antiplatelet and anticoagulant treatments are prone to failure. Heritable blood and platelet traits contribute to stroke risk, but related mechanisms are not fully understood. Platelets bind to damaged endothelial walls to initiate thrombosis, but erythrocyte and leukocyte recruitment are involved in stroke pathogenesis. We aimed to identify...
