Activation of platelets by subendothelial collagen results in an increase of cytosolic Ca(2+) concentration ([Ca(2+)]i) and is followed by platelet activation and thrombus formation that may lead to vascular occlusion. The present study determined the role of phosphoinositide-dependent protein kinase 1 (PDK1) in collagen-dependent platelet Ca(2+) signaling and ischemic stroke in vivo.
