Platelet exposure to ASOs leads to decrease in platelet numbers ex vivo. A. Platelet concentration of healthy donor platelets (n = 10, line connects the same donor across experiments) before and after exposure to PS-ASO (16 μM or 24 μM) (upper panel) or to or ME/PS-ASO (16 μM or 24 μM) (lower panel). A significant decrease in the number of platelets was observed after the addition of an ASO-type molecules. **p = 0.004, **p = ***p < 0.001 B. Platelet concentrations in patients with prostate cancer (n = 9) before and after exposure to PS-ASO (24 μM) (upper panel), or ME/PS-ASO (24 μM) (lower panel). A significant decrease in the number of platelets was observed after the addition of ASO-type molecules; PS-ASO *p = 0.041, ME/PS-ASO *p = 0.015.
