In vitro effects of ethanol on rabbit platelet aggregation, secretion of granule contents, and cyclic AMP levels in the presence of prostacyclin.
Abstract
Ethanol, at physiologically tolerable concentrations, inhibits platelet responses to low concentrations of collagen or thrombin, but does not inhibit responses of washed rabbit platelets stimulated with high concentrations of ADP, collagen, or thrombin. However, when platelet responses to high concentrations of collagen or thrombin had been partially inhibited by prostacyclin (PGI2), ethanol had additional inhibitory effects on aggregation and …
