Sitosterolemia induced in Abcg5- and Abcg8-deficient mice fed a high plant sterol diet resulted in accumulation of free sterols in platelet plasma membranes, leading to hyperactivatable platelets characterized by constitutive binding of fibrinogen to its αIIbβ3 integrin receptor, internalization of the αIIbβ3 complex, generation of platelet-derived microparticles, and changes in the quantity and subcellular localization of filamin.
