homeostasis/metabolism
• unlike platelet-rich plasma (PRP) from wild-type controls which complete the retraction of opaque thrombin-induced clots within a 2-hr period, heterozygous PRP shows both a delayed and incomplete clot retraction during this period
|
• heterozygous platelets display a specific fibrinogen binding capacity of 57% relative to 100% in wild-type platelets
|
• although heterozygous platelets exhibit substantial aggregation in response to ADP or collagen, the collagen response is significantly delayed relative to that in wild-type controls
