Is platelet adhesion to dimeric beta-glycoprotein I under conditions of flow mediated by at least two receptors : glycoprotein Ibalpha and apolipoprotein E receptor 2 '?
We show that platelets adhere to dimeric beta2GPI under both arterial and venous shear stresses. Platelets adhere via two receptors: GPIbalpha and apoER2'. These receptors are present in a complex on the platelet surface.
Carbon nanotube electrodes may be ideal for neurosurgery.
