Abstract
There is now a large body of evidence that platelets are central actors of inflammatory reactions. Indeed, platelets play a significant role in a variety of inflammatory diseases. These diseases include conditions as varied as atherosclerosis, arthritis, dermatitis, glomerulonephritis, or acute lung injury. In this context, one can note that inflammation is a convenient but imprecise catch-all term that is used to cover a wide range of situations. Therefore, when discussing the role of platelets in inflammation, it is important to clearly define the pathophysiological context and the exact stage of the reaction. Inflammatory reactions are indeed multistep processes that can be either acute or chronic, and their sequence can vary greatly depending on the situation and organ concerned. Here, we focus on how platelets contribute to inflammatory reactions involving recruitment of neutrophils and/or macrophages. Specifically, we review past and recent data showing that platelets intervene at various stages of these reactions to regulate parameters such as endothelial permeability, the recruitment of neutrophils and macrophages and their effector functions, as well as inflammatory bleeding. The mechanisms underlying these various modulating effect of platelets are also discussed.
