TYLER, Texas (KLTV) - A recent Tyler ISD graduate has created a 3-D animation to help students better understand a complicated biological process. To make a particular biology topic easier to digest, ...

The glycoprotein V of the blood platelets is an important switch point for haemostasis and thrombus formation. This new finding could have great clinical potential. When our blood vessels are injured ...

Disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) is a condition that affects your blood’s clotting abilities. It can either set in slowly or happen very suddenly under particular conditions. It’s also ...

When an injury occurs, coagulation proteins are integral to forming clots (thrombosis) and stopping bleeding (hemostasis). Dr. Clay Cohen, assistant professor of pediatric hematology and oncology at ...

Brown scientists have described a previously unknown but critical blood-clotting role for Arp2/3, a complex of seven proteins found in animal and plant cells. Reporting in the June 15 issue of Blood, ...

Scientists have identified the specific structural element of von Willebrand Factor that allows it to bind with platelets and initiate blood clotting. The team says that the specific unit, which they ...

Heart attacks and strokes - the leading causes of death in human beings - are fundamentally blood clots of the heart and brain. Better understanding how the blood-clotting process works and how to ...

Extending anti-clotting drugs beyond the initial treatment period of at least 90 days after a first blood clot is linked to lower rates of new clots developing compared with stopping treatment, finds ...

Von Willebrand factor (VWF) is a protein crucial to the blood clotting process. If you don’t have enough of this protein, or if it doesn’t work as it’s supposed to, you may have von Willebrand disease ...

The low-calorie sweetener erythritol makes blood more prone to clotting. This may explain why it has been linked to a greater risk of heart attack and stroke in previous research in people. Erythritol ...
