S1P induces PP shedding in vitro. 10 µM S1P caused immediate PP shedding from their MK stems, whereas no PP shedding was observed in MKs treated with vehicle within 1 h. The arrow shows MK stems disappeared during PP shedding. The arrowheads indicate platelet-like particles separated from the MK stems. Time is in minutes. This video is shown at 25 frames/s. Bar, 20 µm.
