Abstract
Provided is a method for assisting in grasping the status of platelet activation, by developing a biomarker that more accurately reflects platelet activation in vivo, said method being usable in testing for thrombotic hemostatic diseases. The method for assisting in grasping the status of platelet activation comprises (1) measuring the concentration of soluble CLEC-2 and a platelet count in a sample obtained from a subject, and (2) calculating a value of [soluble CLEC-2 concentration]/[platelet count] by dividing the soluble CLEC-2 concentration by the platelet count. If desired, the method may further comprise (3) comparing the value with a value of [soluble CLEC-2 concentration]/[platelet count] obtained by using samples from healthy persons.
