Eisenia bicyclis (brown alga) modulates platelet function and inhibits thrombus formation via impaired P2Y12 receptor signaling pathway

Conclusion E. bicyclis inhibits agonist-induced platelet activation and thrombus formation through modulation of the P2Y12 receptor downstream signaling pathway, suggesting its therapeutic potential in ethnomedicinal applications as an anti-platelet and anti-thrombotic compound to prevent cardiovascular diseases.
