Extract from spent hop (Humulus lupulus L.) reduces blood platelet aggregation and improves anticoagulant activity of human endothelial cells in vitro

Spent hop extract (SHE) is hypothesized to possess multifaceted anticoagulant effect and to reduce platelet reactivity in a direct manner and to improve the antiplatelet action of endothelium. The results demonstrated that SHE, rich in flavanols (50% of total phenolic compounds), hydroxycinnamic aci...
