Fig 1. Platelet count in C57BL/6J and FVB/NJ mice at 12, 16, 20 and 24 weeks.
Platelet count at different times points: W12, W16 and W20, that is significantly increased in pooled FVB compared to C57BL/6J at W16 and W20 (p = 0.0028 and p = 0.0031 respectively). Major blood clotting occurred in FVB mice at W24. Taking into account that platelet count was therefore underestimated due to platelet consumption, results are not presented.
