May-Hegglin anomaly (MHA) and Sebastian syndrome (SBS) are inherited macrothrombocytopenias with D hle-like bodies in leukocytes. MHA-SBS are due to mutations of the gene (MYH9) for the heavy chain of non-muscle myosin IIA (NMMHC-IIA), the only myosin II expressed in platelets. The bleeding tendency is often more severe than expected on the basis of platelet count, but no abnormality of platelet function has been identified. To characterize platelet abnormalities deriving from MYH9 mutations better, we studied surface glycoproteins (GPs) in platelets from MHA-SBS patients.
