PPARγ ligands decrease hydrostatic pressure-induced platelet aggregation and proinflammatory activity.
Hypertension is known to be associated with platelet overactivity, but the direct effects of hydrostatic pressure on platelet function remain unclear. The present study sought to investigate whether elevated hydrostatic pressure is responsible for platelet activation and to address the potential rol...
