Abstract
Incubation of freshly prepared human platelets results in an increased rate of platelet breakdown. In all cases studied the effects of the inhibitors can be decreased in extent by suitable concentrations of SH- containing substances such as cysteine or reduced glutathione. The results obtained suggest a direct relationship between platelet sulfhydryl groups and platelet structure. The possible link of this relationship to platelet metabolism is briefly discussed.Keywords
