High levels of PF4, VEGF-A, and classical monocytes correlate with the platelets count and inflammation during active tuberculosis

High levels of PF4, VEGF-A, and classical monocytes correlate with the platelets count and inflammation during active tuberculosis

Platelets play a major role in coagulation and hemostasis; evidence supports the hypothesis that they also contribute to immunological processes. Increased platelet counts have been associated with poor prognosis in tuberculosis (TB). Platelet–monocyte aggregates have been reported in patients with...
