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

Authors: Waltraud C. Schrottmaier, Julia B. Kral-Pointner, Marion Mussbacher, Manuel Salzmann, Bernhard Hochreiter, Anita Pirabe, Theresa Reiter, Sigrun Badrnya, Johannes A. Schmid, Ivo Volf, Alice Assinger
