Course of Platelet Activation Markers After Ischemic Stroke

The aim of this study was to evaluate the time course of platelet activation after ischemic stroke and to investigate whether platelet activation and inflammation are correlated with each other.We serially determined expression of p-selectin (CD62p) and lysosome-associated membrane protein (CD63) by platelets using flow cytometry at 10 time points between days 1 and 90 in patients after ischemic stroke (n=50), in healthy subjects (n=30), and in...
