    Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is multi-causal disease associated to high morbidity and mortality due to complications, especially from pulmonary embolism. New factors of relevance on the DVT pathophysiology enhance our understanding of disease mechanisms and can be translated into improved management of patients, prevention of recurrence and development of new therapies. In this context, the precise role of platelets in the pathogenesis of DVT is not completely understood. Our objectives were to acquire and to analyze the whole platelet protein profile of samples from 3 DVT patients and to compare them to results obtained from 1 sibling and 1 neighbor from each patient (in order to minimize genetic and environmental interferences). These patients presented unprovoked and recurrent episodes of proximal DVT as well as a family history of DVT. Platelets were washed, lysed, and the proteins .. View More»
