AIM:To investigate the antiplatelet aggregation of naringenin and its possible mechanism.METHODS:The effects of naringenin at different concentrations on adenosine diphosphate(ADP)-induced platelet aggregation and platelet spreading on immobilized fibrinogen were detected by aggregational detector and observed under fluorescence microscope,respectively.The expression of phosphoinositide 3-kinase(PI3K) and the phosphorylation of Akt were analyzed by Western blot.RESULTS:Naringenin significantly inhibited ADP...
