Guide to Signal Pathways in Immune Cells

  • 990 Accesses

Abstract

Platelet aggregation exemplifies various cellular activation processes. Adhesion of platelets to collagen is by means of an integrin and a signal transduction pathway. Nitric oxide helps to control platelets and other cells of the immune system. It is produced by nitric oxide synthases.
