Glycoprotein IIb/IIIa (αIIb/β₃) is the most abundant integrin on platelet surfaces, which is involved in interaction between platelets, and triggers an intracellular signaling cascade, platelet shape changes, granule secretion, and clot retraction. In this study, we evaluated the effect of ginsenoside Ro (G-Ro) on the binding of fibronectin and fibrinogen to αIIb/β₃ and clot retraction. We found that G-Ro inhibited thrombin-induced platelet aggregation dose-dependently and attenuated the fibronectin-, and fibrinogen-binding to αIIb/β3 through the dephosphorylation of phosphoinositide 3-kinase p85 and Akt, which influence clot retraction, reflecting the intensification of thrombus. We observed that G-Ro is involved in αIIb/β₃ in human platelets. These results suggest that G-Ro is beneficial, inhibiting fibronectin adhesion, fibrinogen binding, and clot retraction. Therefore, G-Ro in Panax ginseng may prevent platelet aggregation-mediated thrombotic disease.
