Outline of Final Research Achievements |
TMEM16F was found a Ca2+-dependent phospholipid scramblase and a point mutation of TMEM16F from patient with Scott syndrome, a mild bleeding disorder. We investigated TMEM16F-deficient mice. Here we describe the phenotypes of platelet-specific TMEM16F-null mice, which resemble those of Scott syndrome patients. Platelets from these mice exhibit defects in PS exposure, microparticle release, and tissue factor-induced thrombin generation in vitro and in vivo.
