Abstract
We studied the influence of the occupancy of the fibrinogen receptor (GP IIb-IIIa complex) on two early aspects of agonist induced platelet activation: the increase of the intracellular Ca2+ concentration and the cytoskeleton reorganization. A monoclonal antibody, a peptide containing the RGD sequence and fibrinogen purified from human plasma were used as GP IIb-IIIa ligands. The obtained results demonstrated that fibrinogen receptor occupancy inhibits Ca2+ movement and cytoskeleton reorganization caused by low thrombin concentration and ADP.Entities:
