Cellular Mechanisms In Blood Vessel Repair And Hemostasis
Vessel repair and clotting require platelets, endothelial cells, and smooth muscle cells, which ensure hemostasis and maintain blood flow. Platelets form clots, endothelial cells line blood vessels, and smooth muscle cells regulate vessel diameter. Neutrophils, monocytes/macrophages, and fibroblasts also play crucial roles: neutrophils in infection fighting, monocytes in clearing debris, and fibroblasts in tissue repair….
