title: [Dynamic changes in the platelet granule membrane glycoprotein level in patients with acute myocardial infarction].
abstract: Platelet granule membrane glycoprotein (GMP-140) level was measured by using 125I labelled monoclonal antibody (SZ-51) in 20 patients with acute myocardial infarction in the first three days and at the first three weekends. The correlation of severe arrhythmia and administration of aspirin with platelet GMP-140 in AMI were studied respectively. It is shown that platelet GMP-140 increased significantly in the first three days after AMI, then it dropped quickly, but remained at high level as compared with the controlled group till the third weekend (P < 0.01). Platelet GMP-140 level was higher in the first three days than at the first three weekends (P < 0.01). The changes of platelet GMP-140 have not been shown to be related with severe arrhythmia or administration of aspirin (P > 0.05). The results indicated that the platelets in AMI are activated continuously in the first three weeks after infarction; it might be thought as an important index of coronary artery thrombus formation.
