Schematic illustration of ChAdOx1 nCoV-19 and Ad26.COV2.S constructs and the potential association of tPA and thrombocytopenia. Both ChAdOx nCoV-19 and Ad26.COV2.S contain the tPA leader sequence and the full-length SARS-CoV-2 protein. Ad26.COV2.S additionally has a mutated furin site. The translation of only the tPA leader sequence is unlikely to cause thrombocytopenia as previously reported in ischemic stroke and acute myocardial infarction patients treated with recombinant tPA. Figure was created with Biorender.
