Journal masthead yields no data; leaves open whether endotoxin alters platelet PAR1 expression or responsiveness.
Does endotoxin-induced systemic inflammation alter PAR1 expression and platelet responsiveness to TRAP in healthy men?
Systemic inflammation induced by endotoxin down-regulates PAR1 expression on platelets, leading to decreased responsiveness to subsequent PAR1 stimulation.
Reiter et al. (2003) studied this question. This document is a journal masthead and does not contain clinical study data.
