Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Platelet sialyltransferase activity was determined in four patients with primary platelet release disorder. Basal enzyme activity was significantly reduced in all. Moreover, enzyme activity in response to stimulation by collagen or sodium arachidonate was also reduced. Platelet total and surface sialic-acid content was normal. The results indicate that defective membrane sialytransferase may be involved in the pathogenesis of primary platelet release disorder.
