homeostasis/metabolism
• mice have a defect in platelet accumulation at sites of laser-induced cremaster arteriole injury
• thrombin- and convulxin-induced aggregation of platelets is decreased, however higher doses of thrombin or convulxin overcome the aggregation defect
|
• ATP secretion from dense granules of platelets is about 50% of the normal platelets
|
• the time to complete occlusion after FeCl3-induced injury of the carotid artery is doubled
• incorporation of platelets into a thrombus in a FeCL3-induced mesenteric artery thrombosis model is decreased
• however, platelets do not have a defect in fibrin deposition at sites of injury
|
• tail bleeding times are approximately doubled
