Surface expressions of P-selectin, GPVI, CD9, phosphatidylserine and microparticle counts were determined by flow cytometry. Microparticles are defined as particles smaller than platelets that are double positive for GPIX and GPIIb. Results are shown as mean ± SEM. Microparticles released per 1000 platelets, n = 6.

MAPK indicates p38 mitogen-activated kinase; and PRP, platelet-rich plasma.
