Granulocyte-colony-stimulatory factor: a strong inhibitor of natural killer cell function.

abstract：BACKGROUND:The proposal to assess the viability capabilities of platelets (PLTs) collected, treated, or stored in a developmental system against "fresh" PLTs from the same subject poses several important methodologic issues pertaining to the timing and manner of the collecting and separating the fresh PLTs. This study ...
