Figure 1. Platelets apoptosis of 16 uremic patients. ΔΨm depolarization, as monitored by flow cytometry analysis with decreased fluorescence intensity in TMRE-stained platelets, was significantly obvious in uremic patients. HD, PD and ND groups had significant differences from controls. (A). Uremic platelets had enhanced FITC fluorescence intensity which represented PS exposure. HD, PD and ND groups had significant differences from controls. (B) For Western-Blot assay, a 17 kD fragment which exhibited caspase-3 activation was emerged in uremic platelets. (C) The expression changes of Bcl-2 protein family showed obviously decreased levels of Bcl-xL and Bcl-2, and enhanced level of Bax. (D) *p < 0.05, **p < 0.001.
