From: In vitro norepinephrine significantly activates isolated platelets from healthy volunteers and critically ill patients following severe traumatic brain injury

Figure 2

Significant concentration-dependent influence of norepinephrine and thrombin receptor-activating peptide (TRAP) on platelet microparticles isolated from healthy controls. This effect was significant only at norepinephrine concentrations of greater than or equal to 10 μM with a maximal increase induced with TRAP. +P <0.001 TRAP versus norepinephrine; * P <0.001 norepinephrine of 10 and 100 μM versus norepinephrine of less than 10 μM; analysis of variance on ranks.
