we have studied the platelet activation indices beta-thromboglobulin ( beta-tg and platelet factor 4 ( pf4 ) , triglycerides ( tg ) , total cholesterol ( tc ) , high-density lipoprotein ( hdl ) , low-density lipoprotein ( ldl ) , very-low-density lipoprotein ( vldl ) and apolipoprotein ( a1 , a2 , b , c2 , c3 , e ) profiles of 22 untreated essential hypertensive subjects ( who stages 1 and 2 ) and 22 controls , to see if there might be some causal relationship between lipoprotein abnormalities and greater platelet activation .
