Prothrombotic Activation of Platelet Pannexin 1 Channels in Antiphospholipid Syndrome
Background ATP is released from platelets through both degranulation and pannexin‐1 (PANX1) channels. ATP then activates P2X receptors to amplify platelet activation via calcium‐dependent signaling. Objective To evaluate the role of platelet PANX1 channels in the pathophysiology of antiphospholipid syndrome (APS), an acquired thrombo‐inflammatory ...
