title: Effects of dietary linoleic acid on rat platelet ADP-induced aggregation and binding of 125I-fibrinogen.
abstract: Platelets from rats fed a diet high in linoleic acid (6%) bound increased amounts of fibrinogen on stimulation with ADP, compared to those from rats fed diets with low (2%) or no linoleic acid. However, this increased fibrinogen binding was associated with a decrease in platelet aggregation induced by ADP. Changes in the linoleic acid concentration in platelet membranes may cause changes in this relationship.
