Platelet activation initiates a series of events, such as shape change, degranulation and aggregation, which results in the formation of a haemostatic plug and arrest of blood loss at the sites of vascular damage. Shape change is accompanied by remod... Read More about A novel interaction of the myosin light chain phosphatase with the regulatory subunits of protein kinase A in platelets.
