Fig. 2From: Levels of activated platelet-derived microvesicles in patients with soft tissue sarcoma correlate with an increased risk of venous thromboembolismMicrovesicle counts of healthy controls, patients with localized soft tissue sarcoma (G1, G2 and G3) and patients with metastasized soft tissue sarcoma (M1). Data are presented as mean value ± standard deviation (SD). p-values were determined using Student’s t-tests for independent samples. a. Annexin V = total amount of microvesicles as detected using FACS. b. CD45 (leukocyte common antigen) = leukocyte-derived microvesicles. c. CD61 (Integrin β3) = platelet-derived microvesicles. d. CD62P (P-selectin) = activated platelet-derived microvesicles. e. CD63 (gp55) = activated platelet-derived microvesicles. f. CD62E (E-selectin) = endothelium-derived microvesicles. g. CD142 (Tissue Factor) = microvesicles carrying tissue factorBack to article page
