Protein Kinase C and Granule Release in Human Platelets

  • Chapter

Part of the book series: Advances in Experimental Medicine and Biology ((AEMB,volume 192))

Abstract

Upon activation at sites of vascular injury or in response to physiological stimuli, platelets undergo a number of biochemical changes associated with aggregation and release of various secretory granules by exocytosis. A number of proteins and biologically active substances such as thrombospondin, serotonin, ADP and PDGF are secreted.
