Response by Liu and Hu to Letter Regarding Article, “Class III PI3K Positively Regulates Platelet Activation and Thrombosis via PI(3)P-Directed Function of NADPH Oxidase”
Abstract:In Response:We welcome the letter commenting on our recent study, which raised a question on whether the defective reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation and the impaired platelet activation associated with VPS34 (vacuolar protein sorting 34) deficiency are bona fide function of NADPH oxidase (NOX), as suggested by our study.1 Our conclusion that platelet VPS34 functions through NOX (likely the isoform NOX2) and the generation of ROS thereof is based on the observations as follows: (1) VPS34 deficiency impai… Show more
