Stimulation of human haemopoietic cells by colony stimulating factors: sensitivity of leukaemia cells.

abstract：:We report three cases of platelet dysfunction characterized by defective Ca2+ ionophore-induced platelet aggregation without impaired production of thromboxane A2 (TXA2). The patients had mild to moderate bleeding tendencies, and their platelet aggregation and secretion induced by ADP, collagen, arachidonic acid, stab...
