The effects of Lys-plasminoge on platelet α-granule secretion were studied. The level of P-selectin exposed on the surface of plasma membranes of washed human platelets was measured by flow cytometry as a market of α-granule secretion. It was shown that Lys-plasminogen facilitates partial release of α-granules, but impedes thrombin-induced platelet exocytosis.
