They also play a central role in the development of innate and adaptive immune responses. Little information exists about the immunostimulatory role of platelet-derived microparticles (Plt-MPs). To further elucidate this issue, we conducted this study using the B-lymphoblast cell line ¡®Daudi¡¯ as an available surrogate cell line for peripheral blood B lymphocytes. This cell line does not produce immunoglobulins (Igs) and has low expression of activation markers %K Platelet microparticles %K Daudi %K CD27 %K CD86 %K IgG %U https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5836167/
