Are platelets important in inflammation?

F B Ubatuba et al. Agents Actions. 1975 Feb.

Abstract

The participation of platelets in acute inflammation was tested by three different traumas in rats rendered thrombocytopenic with anti-platelet serum. Thrombocytopenic rats showed normal oedema response to carrageenin, anti-platelet serum and passive cutaneous anaphylaxis.
