The plasma concentration of beta-thromboglobulin (BTG), a platelet-specific protein released during platelet aggregation, is considered a sensitive marker of in vivo platelet activity. The mean plasma level in 133 asymptomatic individuals was 32.3 +/- 1.1 ng/ml, and there was no

The effect of highly purified human beta-thromboglobulin (beta TG), a glycoprotein present in platelet alpha granules, was tested on human bone marrow in vitro megakaryocyte (MK) colony formation. A concentration of 5 micrograms/ml of beta TG induced a 50% reduction
