Blood Clotting Discovery Heralds A “New Era In Vascular Biology”

Image Credits: PixabayScientists have uncovered a previously unrecognized biological process responsible for tissue and organ damage in low-oxygen conditions like heart attacks and strokes. The findings indicate that rupturing red blood cells, rather than blood clots, are to blame.The microvasculature—a network of tiny blood vessels—is essential for supplying oxygen and nutrients to body tissues....
