The coagulation cascade is a finely balanced system essential for maintaining haemostasis, yet its disruption can lead to either a propensity for bleeding or an increased risk of clot formation.

A recent study provides new insights into the mechanisms of coagulation in persons with haemophilia A, the most common form of haemophilia. The research team was able to show that saliva contains ...

Disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) is a severe systemic disorder characterised by paradoxical clotting and bleeding, commonly triggered by sepsis – the body’s dysregulated response to ...

The discovery solves a decades long puzzle about what sets off blood clotting. (Nanowerk News) If you’ve ever accidentally sliced yourself on a broken glass or a piece of paper, you may have noticed ...

Megakaryocytes, which are derived from hematopoietic stem cell precursors in bone marrow, form and release platelets; these circulate in the blood for 8 to 10 days before they are removed by hepatic ...

Researchers at the Indian Institute of Science (IISc) have developed an artificial metal-based nanozyme that can potentially be used to clamp down on abnormal blood clotting caused by conditions like ...

Hemophilia C, also known as factor XI deficiency, is a type of bleeding disorder. It occurs due to a deficiency in factor XI, which is a protein that plays an important role in the formation of blood ...

A recent study led by MedUni Vienna provides new insights into the mechanisms of coagulation in persons with hemophilia A, the most common form of hemophilia. The research team was able to show that ...
