Circulating Activated Platelets in Children With Long Covid: A Case-Controlled Preliminary Observation.

Publication date: Jul 15, 2024

We investigated if children with Long Covid (n=14) have activated platelets compared with healthy controls (n=14). Platelet activation and secretion markers were investigated by flow cytometry using MoAbs directed against P-selectin, CD63, and PAC-1 in quiescent platelets and in platelets stimulated with 10-uM adenosine diphosphate and 25-uM protease activated receptor 1-activating peptide. Circulating platelets of patients with Long Covid had significantly increased expression of the activation marker cytometry using MoAbs directed against P-selectin (P = 0. 019).
