hematopoietic system
• platelets fail to spread on fibrinogen to the extent wild-type platelets do
• platelets exhibit fewer, blunted filopodia even with MnCl2-treatment, ADP-treatment, or sub-saturating amounts of PAR4 agonist
|
• less fibrinogen binding and decreased phosphorylation of downstream signaling mediators after MnCl2 or ADP treatment indicates decreased "outside-in" signaling
|
• platelets exhibit reduced alpha-granule secretion in response to ADP and epinephrine
|

• FeCl3 injury to the carotid artery fails to induce occlusive thrombus within 30 minutes for 7 out of 11 mice
• two mice have partial occlusion that quickly embolizes and two mice have delayed occlusion of 16.4 minutes compared to 9.4 minutes in wild-type
|
• median bleeding time is significantly greater than controls despite having normal numbers of platelets
