Abstract
Platelets, anucleate blood cells derive from megakaryocytes, are involved in cardiovascular diseases and tumors. FcγRIIA, the only FcγR expressed on human platelets, is known for its role in immune-related diseases. A growing body of evidence reveals that platelet FcγRIIA is a potential target for the prevention and control of cardiovascular disease and cancer, and is an advantageous biomarker. In this review, we describe the structure and physiological function of platelet FcγRIIA, its regulatory role in cardiovascular disease and cancer, and its potential clinical application.
