Staphylococcus aureus Lipoteichoic Acid Inhibits Platelet Activation and Thrombus Formation via the Paf Receptor

Impaired healing is common in wounds infected with the major human pathogen Staphylococcus aureus, although the underlying mechanisms are poorly understood. Here, we show that S. aureus lipoteichoic acid (LTA) inhibits platelet aggregation caused by physiological agonists and S. aureus and reduced p...
