Platelet functions were studied in 64 patients with various myeloproliferative diseases. The characteristic alterations were prolonged bleeding time, decreased platelet aggregation (but normal results induced by ristomycin), elevated level of BTG, high production of MDA, increased level of TXB2 with almost normal level of 6-keto-PGF1. However, considering the bleeding time and the amount of BTG in relation to the whole blood platelet count, no differences could be detected.
