Increased thrombogenesis and embolus formation in mice lacking glycoprotein V
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The glycoprotein (GP) Ib-V-IX complex plays a critical role in initiating platelet adhesion to von Willebrand factor (vWF) at the site of vascular injury. The complex also forms a high-affinity binding site for thrombin. Using an intravital microscopy mouse model, it was previously established that vWF plays a critical role in mediating platelet adhesion and thrombus formation following mesenteric arteriolar injury induced by ferric chloride. Further characterization of this model showed that these thrombotic events were also thrombin dependent. Using this vWF- and thrombin-dependent model, this study shows that GP V gene deficiency significantly accelerates both platelet adhesion and thrombus formation in mice following arteriolar injury. The time required for vessel occlusion in GP V-deficient (GP V(-/-)) mice was significantly shorter than that in wild-type mice. Interestingly, large emboli were also produced in GP V(-/-) mice, but not in wild-type mice, causing frequent downstream occlusion. However, when the 2 genotypes were compared in the in vitro perfusion chamber where thrombin was inhibited by heparin, no significant differences were found in either initial single-platelet adhesion or thrombus volume. These results demonstrate that GP V(-/-) mice have accelerated thrombus growth in response to vascular injury and suggest that this is caused by enhanced thrombin-induced platelet activation rather than enhanced binding of GPIb-V-IX to vWF. Absence of GP V also compromises thrombus stability.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
