Rachel Lamerton and Colleagues on Activation of Platelets in Flow Cytometry
RPTH Journal shared on LinkedIn:
”Multivalent nanobodies targeting GPVI and CLEC-2 drive potent platelet activation.
Using classical and multispectral flow cytometry, tetravalent nanobodies produced stronger, more consistent activation than trivalent forms—while PEAR1 responses were more variable.
