Detection of platelet associated IgG in immune thrombocytopenia: a new assay employing protein A and peroxidase anti-peroxidase (PROA-PAP).

abstract：:We studied 15 patients with essential thrombocythemia (ET) before treatment and after normalization of platelet count by anagrelide. Significantly increased plasma levels of PDGF, TGFbeta, and bFGF were found. Patients with mild reticulin fibrosis in bone marrow had higher PDGF levels. During treatment, plasma TGFbeta...
