Human Platelet Lipidomics: Variance, Visualization, Flux, and Fuel
Abstract
The cardioprotection afforded by low-dose aspirin reflects the biological importance of the platelet lipid thromboxane A2. In this issue of Cell Metabolism, Slatter et al. (2016) illuminate the breadth, complexity, and variability of the human platelet lipidome under conditions of thrombin activation and aspirin suppression, potentially facilitating the pursuit of precision medicine.
