Oxygen Concentration Plays a Critical Role in Fibrinogen-Mediated Platelet Activation via Inactivation of α_IIbβ₃ and Modulation of Fibrinogen

Biomolecules
In the vascular system, pathological conditions that cause hypoxia are associated with increased platelet activity and thrombosis. Using a platelet spreading assay, we show that severe hypoxia (i.e., 1%), venous (i.e., 5%), and, surprisingly, arterial (i.
