Endothelial nitric oxide synthase plays a minor role in inhibition of arterial thrombus formation.

Endothelial NO synthase (eNOS) expressed in the vascular endothelium or formed within platelets was postulated to inhibit platelet activation and aggregation. We have assessed the role of eNOS in platelet aggregation in vitro and in vivo by comparison of WT and eNOS-/- mice. Aggregometer studies revealed that collagen over a concentration range of 0.
