ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a highly sensitive diagnostic/prediagnostic test to identify persons at risk of a thrombotic event. Thrombotic events include myocardial infarction, deep venous thrombosis, pulmonary embolism, thromboembolic stroke pulmonary embolism deep venous and cardiovascular disease. The test is based on the early detection of elevated levels of resting platelet surface thrombospondin. The present invention also includes methods of determining the presence of thrombospondin on the surface TSP receptors of resting platelets in a biological sample. An anti-thrombospondin monoclonal antibody which is specific for thrombospondin on resting platelets is also disclosed. A diagnostic test in the form of a test kit for the determination of thrombospondin levels in a patient sample, and also for the prediagnosis of persons at risk for thrombotic events, is also described.
