Abstract

The role of CD146 and its soluble form have been intensely reviewed in the processes of cancer and inflammation. However, how CD146 is linked to coagulation and thrombotic events remains unclear. The aim of this paper is to shed light on this topic and clarify the contribution of CD146 as a procoagulant factor.
