Abstract
Heparin was found to inhibit the interaction between human factor VIII and platelets. This was noted in two different systems, namely, platelet aggregation induced by neuraminidase-treated human cryoprecipitate and platelet aggregration induced by ristocetin-human factor VIII complex. Heparin appeared to have an inhibitory effect on the above systems similar to that reported on bovine factor VIII-induced platelet aggregation.
