Platelet activation in inbred mouse strains was studied using expression of P-selectin as a marker of activated platelets. P-selectin expression in response to no added stimulus (spontaneous activation) or in response to adenosine diphosphate (ADP) and epinephrine or thrombin, was assessed using a flow cytometric assay. Wide variation in the responsiveness of different strains was observed with strains SJL and AKR in particular showing very high levels of spontaneous activation. Genetic studies suggest that this phenomenon is under control of a small number of genes and that the same loci are probably responsible for the high activation of both SJL and AKR. Bone marrow transplant experiments show that the trait is expressed in the platelet itself. Screening of SWXJ and AKXD recombinant inbred lines suggests that one of the responsible genes is located on chromosome 3.
