摘要: We have studied the mechanism of interaction between soluble von Willebrand factor (vWF), labeled with fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC), and platelets exposed to shear in a cone-and-plate viscometer. A flow cytometer calibrated fluorescent bead standards was used calculate number molecules associated each platelet suspension. To validate methods reagents used, binding same vWF assessed presence ristocetin or α-thrombin found be saturable, narrow symmetric distribution on >90% platelets. As expected, essentially all bound ligand interacted exclusively membrane glycoprotein (GP) Ibα GP IIb-IIIa after stimulation α-thrombin. In contrast, only minor proportion (
