Biomechanical activation of blood platelets via adhesion to von Willebrand factor studied with mesoscopic simulations

Platelet adhesion and activation are essential initial processes of arterial and microvascular hemostasis, where high hydrodynamic forces from the bloodflow impede coagulation. The process relies on von Willebrand factor (VWF)—a linear multimeric protein of blood plasma plays a pivotal role in mecha...
