Depletion of pFn enhanced thrombus formation in Cre⁺ TKO mice in a FeCl₃-injury mesenteric arteriole thrombosis model. (A) No significant difference was observed in early platelet deposition (shown at 4 minutes), but thrombus growth (shown at 15 minutes) and vessel occlusion (27 minutes) were accelerated. The arrow in the Cre⁻ panel (27 minutes) shows blood flow from right to left in the arteriole. (B) Quantitative analysis of thrombus formation in Cre⁺ TKO mice () and Cre⁻ control (■) mice. Cre⁺ TKO mice, n = 9; Cre⁻ control mice, n = 10.
