hematopoietic system
• in the reverse passive Arthus reaction to induce in vivo inflammation, mice show a 4-fold increase in hemoglobin content, revealing blood leakage in the surrounding tissues
• platelet count is decreased by 55% and remains decreased for up to 16 months of age
• platelet volume is increased by 44%
• blood smears show presence of larger platelets
• platelet adhesion to VWF strings is increased, with FeCl3 treated mesenteric venules showing a 45% increase in the number of platelets per string and 134% prolonged sting lifetime
• blood smears show presence of platelet aggregates, with mice presenting with increased low- and intermediate-molecular weight multimers and reduced high molecular weight multimers
• platelets are irresponsive to either thrombin or collagen at low concentrations and show impaired aggregation at high concentrations

homeostasis/metabolism
• platelet adhesion to VWF strings is increased, with FeCl3 treated mesenteric venules showing a 45% increase in the number of platelets per string and 134% prolonged sting lifetime
• blood smears show presence of platelet aggregates, with mice presenting with increased low- and intermediate-molecular weight multimers and reduced high molecular weight multimers
• platelets are irresponsive to either thrombin or collagen at low concentrations and show impaired aggregation at high concentrations
• in FeCl3-induced vessel injury, mice show no occlusion of venules or arterioles within 60 min, indicating defective thrombosis
• severe bleeding is seen in a tail clip-bleeding assay, with no mutant mice stopping bleeding within a 10 minute period
• in the reverse passive Arthus reaction to induce in vivo inflammation, myeloperoxidase activity is 25% higher, indicating an increase in leukocyte recruitment at injury site
• in the reverse passive Arthus reaction to induce in vivo inflammation, mice show a 4-fold increase in hemoglobin content, revealing blood leakage in the surrounding tissues

immune system
• in the reverse passive Arthus reaction to induce in vivo inflammation, myeloperoxidase activity is 25% higher, indicating an increase in leukocyte recruitment at injury site

hematopoietic system
• in the reverse passive Arthus reaction to induced in vivo inflammation, mice show a 1.7-fold increase in hemoglobin content, revealing blood leakage in the surrounding tissues
• platelet counts are modestly, but significantly, reduced
• platelet volumes are slightly increased
• platelet adhesion to VWF strings is increased, with FeCl3 treated mesenteric venules showing a 40% increase in the number of platelets per string and 47% prolonged sting lifetime
• blood smears show presence of platelet aggregates, with mice presenting with increased low- and intermediate-molecular weight multimers and reduced high molecular weight multimers
• platelet aggregation is reduced at low thrombin and collagen concentrations

homeostasis/metabolism

• blood smears show presence of platelet aggregates, with mice presenting with increased low- and intermediate-molecular weight multimers and reduced high molecular weight multimers
• platelet aggregation is reduced at low thrombin and collagen concentrations
• 14 of 31 mice do not stop bleeding within 10 minutes in the tail clip-bleeding assay and the remaining mice show prolonged bleeding times compared to wild-type mice
• however, in FeCl3-induced vessel injury, mice show normal occlusion times in venules and arterioles
• in the reverse passive Arthus reaction to induced in vivo inflammation, mice show a 1.7-fold increase in hemoglobin content, revealing blood leakage in the surrounding tissues
• in the reverse passive Arthus reaction to induce in vivo inflammation, myeloperoxidase activity is 23% higher, indicating an increase in leukocyte recruitment at injury site
