SummaryPlatelets were found to aggregate spontaneously when exposed to ultrasound generated by a commercial therapeutic device. At a given frequency, aggregation was found to be a dose-related phenomenon, increasing intensities of ultrasound inducing more extensive and more rapid aggregation. At any single intensity, the extent aggregation was increased as the frequency of the applied ultrasound was decreased (from 3.0 to 0.75 MHz).Ultrasound-induced platelet aggregation was found to be related to overall platelet sensitivity to adenosine diphosphate. More sensitive platelets were found to aggregate spontaneously at lower intensities of sound, and also the maximum extent of aggregation was found to be greater. Examination of ultrasound-induced platelet aggregates by electron microscopy demonstrated that the platelets had undergone the release reaction.The observation that haemoglobin was released from erythrocytes in whole blood irradiated under identical physical conditions suggests that the platelets are being distrupted by ultrasonic cavitation (violent gas/bubble oscillation).It is postulated that overall platelet aggregation is the result of two distinct effects. Firstly, the direct action of ultrasonic cavitation disrupts a small proportion of the platelet population, resulting in the liberation of active substances. These substances produce aggregation, both directly and indirectly by inducing the physiological release reaction in adjacent undamaged platelets.

SummaryVarious cardiovascular drugs such as nitrates and propranolol, used in the treatment of coronary artery disease have been shown to have an antiplatelet effect. We have studied the in vitro effects of two antiarrhythmic drugs, verapamil and disopyramide, and have shown their inhibitory effect on platelet function. Verapamil, a calcium channel blocker, inhibited the second phase of platelet aggregation induced by adenosine diphosphate (ADP) and inhibited aggregation induced by collagen. Disopyramide similarly inhibited the second phase of platelet aggregation caused by ADP and aggregation induced by collagen. Either drug in synergism with propranolol inhibited ADP or collagen-induced platelet aggregation. Disopyramide at high concentrations inhibited arachidonic add whereas verapamil was without effect. Verapamil, but not disopyramide, inhibited aggregation induced by the ionophore A23187.

Platelet Adherence

Endothelial cells (EC) can actively influence the hemostatic response at sites of vascular injury through multiple mechanisms. For example, EC can degrade adenosine diphosphate, release plasminogen activator, and synthesize prostacyclin (PGI2), a potent inhibitor of platelet aggregation. We have examined whether PGI2 also might account for the normal lack of platelet adherence to the uninjured EC surface. In a monolayer adherence assay, radiolabeled human platelets in citrated plasma showed minimal interaction with primary cultures of human EC (<1 platelet adhering per cell). Platelets from aspirin-treated and untreated donors behaved similarly. However, aspirin pretreatment of EC consistently resulted in ~2-fold increases in platelet adherence which could be completely abolished by exogenous PGI2 (0.5–1.0 μg/ml). SV40-transformed human EC (SVHEC), which are deficient in PGI2 production compared to primary EC, showed 10-30 times more platelet adherence. Exogenous PGI2 produced a dose - related (.001-1.0 μg/ml) decrease in platelet adherence to SVHEC but did not result in the basal levels observed with normal EC monolayers. These data suggest that : 1) In addition to its effects on platelet aggregation, PGI2 can influence platelet endothelial cell interactions; 2) The increased platelet reactivity of transformed EC is associated with, but not completely attributable, to decreased PGI2 production; and 3) Factors other than PGI2 may play a role in the thromboresistance of normal vascular endothelium.

SummaryPlatelet aggregation and fibrinogen binding were studied in 15 individuals before and 7 days after the oral administration of ticlopidine (250 mg b.i.d.). Ticlopidine significantly inhibited platelet aggregation induced by adenosine diphosphate (ADP), the endoperoxide analogue U46619, collagen or low concentrations of thrombin, but did not inhibit platelet aggregation induced by epinephrine or high concentrations of thrombin. Ticlopidine inhibited 125I-fibrinogen binding induced by ADP, U46619 or thrombin (1 U/ml). The ADP scavengers apyrase or CP/CPK, added in vitro to platelet suspensions obtained before ticlopidine, caused the same pattern of aggregation and 125I-fibrihogen binding inhibition as did ticlopidine. Ticlopidine did not inhibit further platelet aggregation and 125I-fibrinogen binding induced in the presence of ADP scavengers. After ticlopidine administration, thrombin or U46619, but not ADP, increased the binding rate of the anti-GPIIb/IIIa monoclonal antibody 7E3 to platelets. Ticlopidine inhibited clot retraction induced by reptilase plus ADP, but not that induced by thrombin or by reptilase plus epinephrine, and prevented the inhibitory effect of ADP, but not that of epinephrine, on the PGE1-induced increase in platelet cyclic AMP. The number of high- and low-affinity binding sites for 3H-ADP on formalin-fixed platelets and their K d were not modified by ticlopidine. These findings indicate that ticlopidine selectively inhibits platelet responses to ADP.

Abstract Functional, biochemical, and morphologic platelet abnormalities are reported in four children with the syndrome of albinism, mild bleeding tendency, prolonged bleeding time, and normal platelet count. In these children, primary platelet aggregation with adenosine diphosphate occurred normally, but secondary aggregation was impaired. Collagen and norepinephrine produced almost no platelet aggregation. Platelet content of serotonin (5-HT) was markedly reduced, and uptake and retention of 5-HT by the platelets in vivo and in vitro was poor. In one child who was given a tryptophan load, urinary tryptophan metabolites were normal, suggesting that there was no evidence of a block in the 5-HT synthetic pathway in the gastrointestinal tract. Electron microscopy revealed an absence of densely osmophilic granules in 5-HT poor platelets. Platelets from other albinos with no history of bleeding contained normal amounts of 5-HT and densely osmophilic granules.

Abstract Platelet activation, including platelet adhesion, platelet aggregation and platelet release reaction, played an important role in thrombogenesis. We all knew that Platelet glycoprotein IIb/IIIa antagonist was the most effective drug for anti-aggregation, while we don’t know clearly its effect on platelet release reaction and the relations between its effects on platelet aggregation and release reaction. Platelet release reactions included α-granules and dense granules releasing. When α-granules were released, its membrane glycoprotein CD62p was expressed in the platelet membrane. We used the CD62p expression as the index of platelet release reaction. In the current study, the 4-peptides RGDS (Arg-Gly-Asp-Ser) was used as glycoprotein IIb/IIIa antagonist. We detected the effects of RGDS on platelet aggregation and CD62p expression induced by adenosine diphosphate (ADP) (finial concentration, 5μmol/L) in vitro. 50, 100, 200, 400 and 800μmol/L RGDS were used separately in the test. RGDS of each concentration could significantly inhibited maximal platelet aggregation (PAG(M)) induced by ADP, the 50% inhibiting concentration was approximately 200μmol/L. 800μmol/L RGDS could inhibited PAG(M) by 80.48±8.18%. Only ≥200μmol/L RGDS could significantly inhibited platelet CD62p expression. 800μmol/L RGDS could inhibit platelet CD62p expression by 27.31±9.74%. The inhibiting effect of RGDS on PAG(M) and platelet CD62p expression had significantly correlation (r =0.976, P<0.05). These results indicated that RGDS in low concentration (<200μmol) had little negative effect on platelet release reaction induced by ATP, while in relatively high concentration (≥200μmol) RGDS could inhibit platelet release reaction. When RGDS concentrations were same its effect on platelet release reaction was much less than that on platelet aggregation, which indicated that platelet glycoprotein IIb/IIIa compound could only partly participated in the platelet release reaction but fully participated in platelet aggregation induced by ADP.
