Flow cytometric analysis of Human CD41a expression on human peripheral blood platelets. Human peripheral blood platelets were stained with either Alexa Fluor® 488 Mouse IgG1, κ Isotype Control (Black line histogram) or SDT Alexa Fluor® 488 Mouse Anti-Human CD61 Antibody (Red line histogram) at 5 μl/test. Flow cytometry and data analysis were performed using BD FACSymphony™ A1 and FlowJo™ software.

Background
CD61, also known as integrin beta-3 (ITGB3) or glycoprotein IIIa (gpIIIa), is a transmembrane protein encoded by the ITGB3 gene in humans. It is predominantly expressed on the surface of platelets and megakaryocytes. CD61 forms a crucial complex with CD41 (alphaIIb) to create the heterodimeric receptor gpIIb/IIIa, which is essential for platelet aggregation and thrombus formation. This receptor binds to fibrinogen, von Willebrand factor, and other extracellular matrix proteins, facilitating platelet adhesion and aggregation. In addition to its role in hemostasis, CD61 is also involved in various cellular processes, including cell adhesion, migration, and proliferation. It has been implicated in tumor progression, where it can influence tumor metabolism, immune microenvironment, and epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition.
