When a blood vessel is injured, specialised blood cells called platelets get activated, and cluster together around the vessel to form protective blood clots. However, when these signals go haywire, oxidative stress and levels of toxic Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) increase, leading to over-activation of platelets
