Endocannabinoids control platelet activation and limit aggregate formation under flow.
BACKGROUND:The endocannabinoid system has previously been implicated in the regulation of neurons and inflammatory cells. Additionally, it has been reported that endocannabinoid receptors are present on circulating platelets, but there has been conflicting evidence on their contribution to platelet...
