Fig. 3. Inhibitory effect of PAR3 IgG on α-thrombin–induced calcium mobilization in mouse platelets. Mouse platelets were loaded with fura-2 and cytosolic free Ca2+ concentration [Ca2+]i (nmol/L) was measured fluorometrically.14 Extracellular calcium was chelated to prevent platelet aggregation. Platelets were preincubated with the indicated IgG preparations for 5 minutes at 37°C and then transferred to a fluorometer at room temperature. α-Thrombin (0.5 nmol/L) or U46619 (3 μmol/L) was added at approximately 100 seconds. The data shown are representative of three experiments with thrombin and two experiments with U46619.
