Relation of platelet phospholipids to diabetic control
Abstract:
In the present study we investigated platelet phospholipid concentration in diabetic patients in various conditions of metabolic control. We found an increase in total phospholipid concentration as well as in phosphatidylserine and phosphatidylethanolamine, the most pronounced changes being observed in poorly controlled patients. We discuss our findings in relation to the metabolic control of the disease and the high incidence of atherosclerotic lesions in these patients.
