text: When platelets come across the injured endothelium cells, they change shape, release granules and ultimately become ‘sticky’.
text: When activated by an injury, the platelets will change shape and develop branches to spread over the injured tissue to help stop the bleeding in a process called aggregation, and then release growth factors, primarily from the alpha granules.
text: Also platelets contain proteins similar to muscle proteins that allow them to change shape when they become sticky.
text: Upon activation, platelets change shape and in the presence of fibrinogen aggregate to form the platelet plug of the thrombus.
