Extended Data Fig. 6

Panel A ADP-stimulated and Thrombin receptor-activating peptide (TRAP)6-stimulated platelet aggregometry responses in human platelet-rich plasma incubated with 1,5-AHG (green) versus vehicle (saline, blue). Two-sided P values were calculated by Mann Whitney Test. For ADP and TRAP6 stimulated platelet-rich plasma n = 7. Panel B shows thrombin-induced (0.02 U ml−1) changes in intracellular calcium concentration in Fura 2-filled washed human platelets incubated with 1,5-AHG (green) or vehicle (saline, blue). Data represent mean (±s.d.). Two-sided P values were calculated by Wilcoxon matched-pairs signed rank test. Numbers of independent biological replicates (n) are indicated.
