title: Epinephrine potentiates activation of human platelets by low density lipoproteins.
abstract: Low density lipoproteins activate phosphoinositide turnover, increase free cytoplasmic calcium concentration and stimulate phosphorylation of 20- and 47-kDa proteins in blood platelets. All these effects are substantially potentiated by epinephrine.
