Platelet-derived exosomes and microparticles interact with neutrophils dengue virus binds to platelet surface protein CLEC2 resulting in the release of microparticles and exosomes. The platelet releases microbodies then binds with neutrophil and macrophages resulting in the release of pro-inflammatory cytokines and components of neutrophil extracellular trap (NET) from these cells. Exosomes released from dengue virus-activated platelets also protect the bleeding in virus-infected patients.
