| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Podoplanin/CLEC-2 is a platelet aggregation factor. In this study, the role of Podoplanin/CLEC-2 system in the pathogenesis of atherothrombosis was investigated. Using directional atherectomy(DCA) samples of angina pectoris patients(n=220), aspirated thrombi from coronary arteries of acute myocardial infarction(AMI) patients(n=100) and coronary arteries(n=60) from autopsy samples, we demonstrated that Podoplanin/CLEC-2 was overexpressed in the atherosclerotic lesions, and involved in the pathogenesis of atherothrombosis/acute coronary syndromes.
