Platelet activation and blood extracellular vesicles: The influence of venepuncture and short blood storage
CONCLUSIONS: Preanalytical factors like needle thickness and storage time can affect the MVs' properties. Activation of platelets during blood collection or blood storage occurs; however, it is difficult to determine its effect on the physiological properties of EVs since the mechanisms of EVs` biogenesis and especially clearness are not precisely known.PMID:38492545 | DOI:10.1016/j.bcmd.2024.102842
