Title: In vitro enhancement of human platelet aggregation by somatostatin. Author: Gazzaniga PP, Di Macco G, La Mancusa R, Oddi A, Pappalardo G, Pulcinelli FM, Reggio D. Journal: Experientia; 1988 Oct 15; 44(10):892-4. PubMed ID: 2903069. Abstract: Very low concentrations of somatostatin (S-14) strongly potentiate the in vitro aggregation induced by collagen, ristocetin and arachidonic acid, but not that induced by ADP or epinephrine, in both human platelet rich plasmas and gel-filtered platelet preparations. Desensitization phenomena may be induced either by repeated addition of S-14 or long lasting contact between S-14 and platelets.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
