Inhibition of platelet adhesion, thrombus formation, and fibrin formation by a potent αIIbβ3 integrin inhibitor from ticks

BACKGROUND: Ticks puncture the skin of their hosts and secrete saliva, containing antiplatelet proteins, into the blood. Here, we studied disagregin, a potent platelet‐inhibiting protein derived from the salivary glands of Ornithodoros moubata, an African soft tick. Whereas conventional αIIbβ3 antag...
