B-thromboglobulin content of human blood platelets. 1980

A E Bolton, and J A Amess, and C P Lekhwani, and P Elliott

There was a reduction in the B-thromboglobulin content of human blood platelets in patients with leukaemia after chemotherapy which inhibited platelet production. Thus, in these patients, as the circulating platelet population ages, B-thromboglobulin leaks out of, or is actively secreted by, platelets which remain in the circulation.
