Effects of glycoprotein Ⅱ b/Ⅲ a antagonists and chloride channel blockers on platelet cytoplasmic free calcium

Platelet activation plays an important role in thrombosis. Platelet glycoprotein Ⅱ b/Ⅲ a （ GPⅡ b/Ⅲ a ） is the receptor of fibrinogen. Platelet cross-linking with fibrinogen through GP Ⅱ b/Ⅲ a is the process of thrombosis. Ca^2＋ is an important intracellular second messenger in platelet activation. It has been reported that GP Ⅱ b/Ⅲ a receptors were involved in the calcium influx of activated platelet, and GP Ⅱ b/Ⅲ a receptor had characteristics of calcium channel or an adjacent calcium channel.
