Protective Mechanisms of S. lycopersicum Aqueous Fraction (Nucleosides and Flavonoids) on Platelet Activation and Thrombus Formation: In Vitro, Ex Vivo and In Vivo Studies

Figure 3

Aqueous fraction inhibited platelet activation. Platelet activation was measured by percentage of annexin V binding (flow cytometry). PRP was incubated with saline or aqueous fraction (1 mg/mL) for 10 min, prior to measuring human platelet activation induced by agonist (collagen/ADP). The graph depicts the mean ± SEM of experiments. * . PRP: platelet-rich plasma.
