Apolipoprotein C3 as A Paradoxical Inhibitor of Platelet Aggregation and Thrombosis – JTH
Journal of Thrombosis and Haemostasis (JTH) shared on LinkedIn about a recent article by Waltraud C. Schrottmaier et al, adding:
”Elevated Levels of Apolipoprotein C3 Impair Platelet Function and Reduce Thrombosis
ApoC3, a known cardiovascular risk factor, paradoxically acts as a lipoprotein-derived inhibitor of platelet aggregation and thrombosis by modulating AKT and VASP signaling and disrupting actin cytoskeleton remodeling, potentially counterbalancing its proatherogenic effects in hyperlipidemia.”
Title: Elevated levels of apolipoprotein C3 impair platelet function and reduce thrombosis
