Platelet Glycoprotein Ⅵ: A Novel Target for Antithrombotic Therapy in Cardiovascular Disease

Abstract. Platelets play an important role in thrombosis caused by acute coronary syndrome and stroke. As the main platelet collagen receptor, platelet glycoprotein Ⅵ (GPⅥ) is an important modulator in the activation and aggregation of platelets at vascular injury sites. Recently, GPⅥ has been ident...

description Abstract. Platelets play an important role in thrombosis caused by acute coronary syndrome and stroke. As the main platelet collagen receptor, platelet glycoprotein Ⅵ (GPⅥ) is an important modulator in the activation and aggregation of platelets at vascular injury sites. Recently, GPⅥ has been identified as a potent antithrombotic target. The structure, properties, functions, and downstream signaling of GPⅥ are reviewed; its relationship with bleeding, thrombosis, and other diseases are discussed; and potential of GPⅥ as a future antiplatelet therapeutic target is summarized in this article.
