Human platelet IgG Fc receptor FcγRIIA in immunity and thrombosis (2015)
Journal Article
Arman, M., & Krauel, K. (2015). Human platelet IgG Fc receptor FcγRIIA in immunity and thrombosis. Journal of thrombosis and haemostasis : JTH, 13(6), 893-908. https://doi.org/10.1111/jth.12905

© 2015 International Society on Thrombosis and Haemostasis. Beyond their prominent role in hemostasis and thrombosis, platelets are increasingly recognized as having immunologic functions. Supporting this, human platelets express FcγRIIA (CD32a), a l... Read More about Human platelet IgG Fc receptor FcγRIIA in immunity and thrombosis.
