Signaling mechanisms of the platelet glycoprotein Ib-IX complex
The glycoprotein Ib–IX (GPIb-IX) complex mediates initial platelet adhesion to von Willebrand factor (VWF) immobilized on subendothelial matrix and endothelial surfaces, and transmits VWF binding-induced signals to stimulate platelet activation. GPIb-IX also functions as part of a mechanosensor to c...
