<unk>  are a functional subgroup of<unk>  with distinct properties in physiological haemostasis. Following strong activation,<unk>  express phosphatidylserine on their surface and become highly efficient in sustaining thrombin generation and parallelly gain pro-haemostatic function by retaining α-granule proteins on their membranes. While a low level of<unk>  is associated with impaired<unk> function and bleeding diathesis high levels have been shown to worsen thrombotic events.
