SummaryIt has been postulated that the high phenol and phenolic acids plasmatic levels found in patients with chronic renal failure are contributory factors in the abnormal platelet function described in these patients. This hypothesis was corroborated by “in vitro” studies showing the deleterious effect of these compounds on certain platelet function after pre-incubation of PRP with phenol and phenolic compounds. The present studies were conducted to determine the influence of phenolic compounds on platelet release reaction. It was found that phenol inhibited from 62.5 to 100% the effect of the aggregating agents thrombin, adrenaline and ADP on platelet 5-HT-14C release. The phenolic acids p-, m-, and o-HPAA inhibited from 36.35 to 94.8% adrenaline and ADP-induced platelet 5-HT-14C release. Adrenaline-induced platelet ADP release was inhibited from 27.45 to 38.10% by the phenolic compounds. These findings confirm the hypothesis that phenolic compounds interfere with platelet function through the inhibition of the release reaction.

SummaryThrombelastograms of both native blood and re-calcified platelet-rich plasma samples taken from subjects given a single oral dose of aspirin (1 gram) were not significantly different from the pretreatment recordings. Aspirin also did not modify the thrombelastogram when preincubated in vitro with platelet-rich plasma at concentrations inhibiting the platelet “release reaction” by collagen. Thrombelastography therefore cannot evaluate the effect of aspirin on platelet function.

SummaryThe effect of lidoflazine and of cinnarizine on human platelet function in vitro was compared to that of dipyridamole.Pre-incubation for 30 min at 37° C of platelet rich plasma with lidoflazine or with dipyridamole 5 ×10–4 M resulted in an appreciable inhibition of collagen aggregation in particular and to a lesser extent of ADP aggregation; cinnarizine was marginally active only.Clot retraction was inhibited by lidoflazine and by dipyridamole. Experiments on biphasic ADP aggregation and C14-serotonin release during aggregation show that lidoflazine reduces the platelet release reaction.The possible mode of action of the compound is discussed.Plasma coagulation and PF – 3 availability were not affected.

Abstract The effects of sodium nitroprusside (N.P.), a pure smooth muscle inhibitor, on platelet function were studied. Platelet-rich plasmas (PRP) from normal controls and from patients receiving N.P. were studied in vitro for aggregation in response to adenosine diphosphate (ADP), epinephrine, and collagen. Platelet ADP release (release reaction) was also investigated. Normal platelets demonstrated marked inhibition of aggregation when incubated with N.P. for 3 min. Prolonging the incubation was without additional effect. ADP and ATP release from platelets in response to collagen was also inhibited. PRP from patients receiving nitroprusside at concentrations between 25 mug/min an 165 mug/min showed inhibition of aggregation when compared to findings prior to the administration of N.P. N.P. acts by inhibiting contractile proteins and thus platelet ADP release and aggregation may depend on contraction of platelet smooth muscle-like protein, thrombosthenin.

SummaryIn the course of studying the effects on platelets of the oxidant species superoxide (O- 2), Of was generated by the interaction of xanthine oxidase plus xanthine. Surprisingly, gel-filtered platelets, when exposed to xanthine oxidase in the absence of xanthine substrate, were found to generate superoxide (O- 2), as determined by the reduction of added cytochrome c and by the inhibition of this reduction in the presence of superoxide dismutase.In addition to generating Of, the xanthine oxidase-treated platelets display both aggregation and evidence of the release reaction. This xanthine oxidase induced aggreagtion is not inhibited by the addition of either superoxide dismutase or cytochrome c, suggesting that it is due to either a further metabolite of O- 2, or that O- 2 itself exerts no important direct effect on platelet function under these experimental conditions. The ability of Of to modulate platelet reactions in vivo or in vitro remains in doubt, and xanthine oxidase is an unsuitable source of O- 2 in platelet studies because of its own effects on platelets.

The aim of the present study was the full characterization, quantification, and determination of the digestive stability and bioaccessibility of individual betalain and phenolic compounds of Opuntia stricta, var. Dillenii fresh fruits (peel, pulp, and whole fruit) and of the products of the industrialization to obtain jam (raw pressed juice (product used for jam formulation), by-product (bagasse), and frozen whole fruit (starting material for jam production)). Opuntia stricta var. Dillenii fruits and products profile showed 60 betalain and phenolic compounds that were identified and quantified by HPLC-DAD-ESI/MS and HPLC-DAD-MS/QTOF, being 25 phenolic acids (including isomers and derivatives), 12 flavonoids (including glycosides), 3 ellagic acids (including glycosides and derivative), and 20 betanins (including degradation compounds). In vitro gastrointestinal digestion was performed by INFOGEST® protocol. Fruit pulp showed the greater content of total betalains (444.77 mg/100 g f.w.), and jam only showed very low amounts of two betanin degradation compounds, Cyclo-dopa-5-O-β-glucoside (and its isomer) (0.63 mg/100 f.w.), and two Phyllocactin derivatives (1.04 mg/100 g f.w.). Meanwhile, fruit peel was the richer tissue in total phenolic acids (273.42 mg/100 g f.w.), mainly in piscidic acid content and total flavonoids (7.39 mg/100 g f.w.), isorhamnetin glucoxyl-rhamnosyl-pentoside (IG2) being the most abundant of these compounds. The stability of betalains and phenolic compounds during in vitro gastrointestinal digestion is reported in the present study. In Opuntia stricta var. Dillenii pulp (the edible fraction of the fresh fruit), the betanin bioaccessibility was only 22.9%, and the flavonoid bioaccessibility ranged from 53.7% to 30.6%, depending on the compound. In non-edible samples, such as peel sample (PE), the betanin bioaccessibility was 42.5% and the greater bioaccessibility in flavonoids was observed for quercetin glycoside (QG1) 53.7%, the fruit peel being the most interesting material to obtain antioxidant extracts, attending to its composition on antioxidant compounds and their bioaccessibilities.

Schisandra rubriflora is a dioecious, underestimated medicinal plant species known from traditional Chinese medicine. The present study was aimed at characterising the polyphenolic profile composition and the related antioxidant capacity of S. rubriflora fruit, stem and leaf and in vitro microshoot culture extracts. Separate analyses of material from female and male specimens were carried out. This study was specifically aimed at detailed characterisation of the contribution of phenolic compounds to overall antioxidant activity using ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography with a photodiode array detector coupled to electrospray ionization ion trap mass spectrometry (UHPLC-DAD-ESI-MS3) and a high-performance liquid chromatography-diode array detector (HPLC-DAD). Using UHPLC-DAD-ESI-MS3, twenty-seven phenolic compounds from among phenolic acids and flavonoids were identified. Concentrations of three phenolic acids (neochlorogenic, chlorogenic and cryptochlorogenic acids) and eight flavonoids (hyperoside, rutoside, isoquercitrin, guaijaverin, trifolin, quercetin, kaempferol, and isorhamnetin) were determined using HPLC-DAD using reference standards. The highest total phenolic content was confirmed for the stem and leaf extracts collected in spring. The contents of phenolic compounds of in vitro biomasses were comparable to that in the fruit extracts. The methanolic extracts from the studied plant materials were evaluated for their antioxidant properties using various in vitro assays, namely free radicals scavenging estimation using 2,2-diphenyl-1-picryl-hydrazyl-hydrate (DPPH), ferric-reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) and cupric-reducing antioxidant capacity (CUPRAC) as well as QUick, Easy, New, CHEap, and Reproducible CUPRAC (QUENCHER-CUPRAC) assays. A close relationship between the content of polyphenolic compounds in S. rubriflora and their antioxidant potential has been documented.

Abstract We studied the mechanism by which complement activated by anti-P1A1 antibody elicits the platelet release reaction. Anti-P1A1 antibody mediates its action through the classic complement pathway, and its effect depends on the concentration of IgG antibody on the platelet surface. At relatively high concentrations of anti-P1A1 antibody the release reaction was mediated by a mechanism in part independent of extracellular ADP and metabolic energy and inhibited by only high concentrations of PGE1. However, at lower concentrations of anti-P1A1 antibody the release reaction was dependent on metabolic energy and ADP, and the concentration of PGE1 required to inhibit platelet release was similar to that required to inhibit ADP-induced release. The cyclooxygenase inhibitor acetylsalicylic acid inhibited the release reaction at all nonlytic antibody levels studied. None of the agents studied inhibited the induction of platelet lysis by very high concentrations of anti-P1A1 antibody, and no effect of antibody on platelet 14C-serotonin uptake was observed at antibody concentrations that did not mediate direct in vitro alteration. These studies suggest the possible use of pharmacologic agents in modifying some complement- mediated platelet alterations.

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.
