    Product Description

    PAR4 (1-6) is a peptide agonist of proteinase-activated receptor 4 (PAR4) that corresponds to residues 1-6 of the amino terminal tethered ligand sequence of human PAR4 and residues 48-53 of the full-length sequence.1 It activates PAR4 and the cleavage site mutant PAR4R47A when used at a concentration of 500 µM.2 PAR4 (1-6) induces platelet aggregation of isolated washed human platelets when used at a concentration of 1 mM but does not affect clotting time induced by factor VIIa, soluble tissue factor, and collagen in an ex vivo coagulation assay.3

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
