Blood Platelet (N/A)

Target: N/A
Molecular classification: Cell fragment

Overview

Blood platelets, also known as thrombocytes, are small, colorless cell fragments circulating in the blood. They are not true cells but rather fragments derived from large bone marrow cells called megakaryocytes. Platelets play a crucial role in hemostasis—the process that stops bleeding by forming clots at sites of blood vessel injury. They also participate in immune responses and wound healing.
