内容説明
Platelets are blood cells which play a central role in the clotting mechanism. Recent research has shown, however, that this is only one of many roles for the platelet. This book brings together research level reviews written by leading international experts on the role and clinical importance of platelets in a wide variety of organ systems and disease processes. After an initial section on structure and function, chapters follow on inflammation, the lung, the kidney, blood vessels, tumour metastases, embryogenesis, allergy and asthma.
