초록

To understand mechanism of benzoquinone-induced cytotoxicity, the roles of ATP and calcium in platelet toxicity and morphology changes was investigated. Using scanning electron microscopy, morphological changes to platelets following l,4-benzoquinone exposure consisted of membrane blebbing at 5 min which was significantly different from shape changes (pseudopod formation) observed in response to physiological agonists.(omitted)
