The incubation of human platelets with methylglyoxal and glucose produces a rapid transformation of the ketoaldehyde to D-lactate by the glyoxalase system and a partial reduction in GSH. Glucose utilization is affected at the level of the glycolytic pathway. No effect of the ketoaldehyde on glycogen
## Platelet -rich plasma were treated with increasing concentrations of vitamin E (β£tocopherol). Washed platelets were exposed to oxidized low density lipoprotein (LDL) and examined by aggregometry and electron microscopy. The treatment of washed platelets by oxidized LDL induced morphological sig
