SummaryHaemostatic impairments are studied in vivo using one of several murine bleeding models. However it is not known whether these models are equally appropriate for assessing coagulation or platelet function defects. It was our study objective to assess the performance of arterial, venous and combined arterial and venous murine bleeding models towards impaired coagulation or platelet function. Unfractionated heparin (UFH) or αIIbβ3 inhibitory antibody (Leo.H4) were administered to mice, and their effects on bleeding in saphenous vein, artery, and tail tip transection models were quantified and correlated with their effects on plasma clotting and ADP-induced platelet aggregation, respectively. All models exhibited similar sensitivity with UFH (EC50 dose = 0.19, 0.13 and 0.07 U/g, respectively) (95% CI = 0.14 – 0.27, 0.08 – 0.20, and 0.03 – 0.16 U/g, respectively). Maximal inhibition of ex vivo plasma clotting could be achieved with UFH doses as low as 0.03 U/g. In contrast, the saphenous vein bleeding model was less sensitive to αIIbβ3 inhibition (EC50 = 6.9 µg/ml) than tail transection or saphenous artery bleeding models (EC50 = 0.12 and 0.37 µg/ml, respectively) (95% CI = 2.4 – 20, 0.05 – 0.33, and 0.06 – 2.2 µg/ml, respectively). The EC50 of Leo.H4 for ADP-induced platelet aggregation in vitro (8.0 µg/ml) was at least 20-fold higher than that of the tail and arterial, but not the venous bleeding model. In conclusion, venous, arterial and tail bleeding models are similarly affected by impaired coagulation, while platelet function defects have a greater influence in models incorporating arterial injury.

Abstract Background: Adequate platelet reactivity is required for platelet adhesion and aggregation at the site of vascular injury to maintain hemostasis. However, excessive platelet reactivity can also lead to the formation of occlusive thrombi, the predominate underlying cause of myocardial infarction and stroke. While current anti-platelet treatments limit platelet function, they often result in an increased risk of bleeding. 12-lipoxygenase (12-LOX), an oxygenase highly expressed in the platelet, has been demonstrated by our lab and others to regulate PAR4 and GPVI-mediated platelet reactivity suggesting a role of 12-LOX in regulation of vivo thrombosis. However, the ability to pharmacologically target 12-LOX in vivo has not been established to date. Aims: To determine how 12-LOX regulates thrombus formation in vivo and whether platelet 12-LOX is an effective target for anti-platelet therapeutics, wild-type (WT) or 12-LOX deficient (12-LOX-/-) mice were treated with or without the 12-LOX inhibitor, ML355, and were assessed for inhibitory effects on platelet activation in vitro, ex-vivo and in vivo. Methods: The effect of the novel 12-LOX inhibitor ML355 on human platelet function was assessed in vitro by platelet aggregometry, ex vivo by perfusion chamber. In vivo thrombus formation and vessel occlusion in small and large vessels were studied in 12-LOX-/-, WT mice and mice treated with ML355 using intravital microscopy using the FeCl3 injury models. Results: Using in vitro platelet aggregation assays, ML355 dose dependently inhibited thrombin, PAR1-AP, and PAR4-AP-induced aggregation in washed human platelets. Interestingly, the negative regulatory effects of ML355 inhibition of 12-LOX can be overcome by high concentration of thrombin. Additionally, ML355 was able to attenuate ADP-induced platelet aggregation both in platelet-rich-plasma and whole blood. In ex vivo flow chamber assays, platelet adhesion and thrombus formation on collagen-coated surfaces at high shear was attenuated in both mouse and human whole blood after incubation with ML355. Further, platelet aggregation and thrombus growth in 12-LOX-/- mice was impaired in FeCl3-induced mesenteric or carotid artery thrombosis models. Thrombi in 12-LOX-/- mice were unstable and frequently form emboli, which resulted in impaired vessel occlusion or reopening. Additionally, thrombus formation and vessel occlusion was impaired in ML355 treated WT mice. Conclusions: The highly selective 12-LOX inhibitor ML355 inhibits platelets aggregation induced by various platelet agonists and ML355 inhibition of platelet function is not agonist specific. Platelet function at high shear in ex vivo conditions in both mice and human was attenuated in the presence of ML355. Thrombus growth, stability, and vessel occlusion was impaired in mice deficient for 12-LOX. Finally, the highly selective 12-LOX inhibitor ML355 attenuates thrombus formation and prevents vessel occlusion in vivo. Our data strongly indicates 12- LOX is an important determinant of platelet reactivity and inhibition of platelet 12-LOX may represent a new target for anti-platelet therapeutics.

Platelets play a substantial role in cardiovascular disease, and for many years there has been a search for dietary components that are able to inhibit platelet function and therefore decrease the risk of cardiovascular disease. Platelets can be inhibited by alcohol, dietary fats and some antioxidants, including a group of compounds, the polyphenols, found in fruits and vegetables. A number of these compounds have been shown to inhibit platelet function both in vitro and in vivo. In the present study the effects of the hydroxycinnamates and the flavonoid quercetin on platelet activation and cell signalling in vitro were investigated. The hydroxycinnamates inhibited platelet function, although not at levels that can be achieved in human plasma by dietary intervention. However, quercetin inhibited platelet aggregation at levels lower than those previously reported. Quercetin was also found to inhibit intracellular Ca mobilisation and whole-cell tyrosine protein phosphorylation in platelets, which are both processes essential for platelet activation. The effect of polyphenols on platelet aggregation in vivo was also investigated. Twenty subjects followed a low-polyphenol diet for 3 d before and also during supplementation. All subjects were supplemented with a polyphenol-rich meal every lunchtime for 5 d. Platelet aggregation and plasma flavonols were measured at baseline and after 5 d of dietary supplementation. Total plasma flavonoids increased significantly after the dietary intervention period (P=0·001). However, no significant changes in ex vivo platelet aggregation were observed. Further investigation of the effects of individual polyphenolic compounds on platelet function, both in vitro and in vivo, is required in order to elucidate their role in the relationship between diet and the risk of cardiovascular disease.

SummaryNaturally-occurring fibrinogen receptor antagonists and platelet aggregation inhibitors that are found in snake venom (disintegrins) and leeches share many common features, including an RGD sequence, high cysteine content, and low molecular weight. There are, however, significant selectivity and potency differences. We compared the effect of three proteins on platelet function: albolabrin, a 7.5 kDa disintegrin, eristostatin, a 5.4 kDa disintegrin in which part of the disintegrin domain is deleted, and decorsin, a 4.5 kDa non-disintegrin derived from the leech Macrobdella decora, which has very little sequence similarity with either disintegrin. Decorsin was about two times less potent than albolabrin and six times less potent than eristostatin in inhibiting ADP- induced human platelet aggregation. It had a different pattern of interaction with glycoprotein IIb/IIIa as compared to the two disintegrins. Decorsin bound with a low affinity to resting platelets (409 nM) and to ADP-activated platelets (270 nM), and with high affinity to thrombin- activated platelets (74 nM). At concentrations up to 685 nM, it did not cause expression of a ligand-induced binding site epitope on the (β3 subunit of the GPIIb/IIIa complex. It did not significantly inhibit isolated GPIIb/IIIa binding to immobilized von Willebrand Factor. At low doses (1.5-3.0 μg/mouse), decorsin protected mice against death from pulmonary thromboembolism, showing an effect similar to eristostatin. This suggested that decorsin is a much more potent inhibitor of platelet aggregation in vivo than in vitro, and it may have potential as an antiplatelet drug.

Barbituric Acid Derivatives

SummarySodium pentobarbital (SPB) and three other barbituric acid derivatives were found to inhibit platelet function in vitro. SPB had no effect on the primary response to ADP of platelets in platelet-rich plasma (PRP) or washed platelets but inhibited secondary aggregation induced by ADP in human PRP. The drug inhibited both phases of aggregation induced by epinephrine. SPB suppressed aggregation and the release reaction induced by collagen or low concentrations of thrombin, and platelet adherence to collagen-coated glass tubes. The inhibition by SPB of platelet aggregation was readily reversible and isotopically labeled SPB did not become firmly bound to platelets. No inhibitory effect on platelet aggregation induced by ADP, collagen, or thrombin could be detected in PRP obtained from rabbits after induction of SPB-anesthesia.

Objective: Although recent advances in the treatment of congestive heart disease, mortality among patients’ remains a questionable remark. Therefore, we evaluated the role of capsaicin on in vitro and ex vivo platelet aggregation induced by Adenosine Di-Phosphate (ADP) as well as in in vivo thrombosis models and role of NO, KATP was also identified in the capsaicin-induced anti-platelet animal model as well as in vivo model of arterial thrombosis.Methods: According to body weight wistar rats were divided into five groups. Group I and Group II was treated with saline and capsaicin (3 mg/kg, i. v), while animals from Group III were treated with N(ω)-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME) (30 mg/kg, i. v) 30 min before administration of capsaicin (3 mg/kg, i. v). Group IV animals were treated with glibenclamide (10 mg/kg,i. v) 30 min before administration of capsaicin (3 mg/kg, i. v). Group V was considered as a positive control and administered clopidogrel (30 mg/kg, p. o). Animals were subjected for in vitro, ex-vivo platelet aggregation assay. ADP (30µM) was utilized as an aggregating agent in these experiments. After these assays; animals of each group were subjected for subaqueous tail bleeding time in a rat model and FeCl3-induced arterial thrombosis model in rats.Results: In ADP-induced in vitro platelet aggregation, a significant reduction in % platelet aggregation was observed at 50µM (64.35±4.641) and 100µM (52.72±4.192) concentration of capsaicin as compared to vehicle control (85.82±3.716). Capsaicin (3 mg/kg, i. v) also showed a significant reduction (49.53±4.075) in ex-vivo ADP-induced platelet aggregation as compared to vehicle control (89.38±2.057). In FeCl3 induced arterial thrombosis model, Capsaicin (3 mg/kg, i. v) exhibited an increase in time to occlusion in this rodent model and presence of the L-NAME and glibenclamide had inhibited the activity of capsaicin.Conclusion: In our study, capsaicin (50 µM, 100µM) exhibited potent anti-platelet activity in ADP-induced platelet aggregation, similarly capsaicin exhibited significant anti-platelet action in the ex-vivo study. Moreover, the presence of L-NAME and glibenclamide inhibited the anti-thrombotic and anti-platelet action of capsaicin. Therefore, it was concluded that NO and KATP may be involved in the anti-thrombotic action of capsaicin.

Stenosed Artery

Over many years, laboratory testing of platelet aggregability have been carried out in attempts to develop drugs that would prevent thrombosis in arteries. The problems encountered included the question of methodology. Blood samples have to be anticoagulated in order to study the platelets. Anti-coagulation with citrate and tests on derived platelet rich plasma did not correlate at all well with thrombus growth in the stenosed coronary arteries of experimental animals and citrate removes the calcium ions which are vital for platelet function. Anticoagulation with heparin also interfered with platelet function, so that now, hirudins are the preferred anticoagulant. However it was observed that if, instead of stimulating platelet aggregation with adrenaline or ADP, serotonin was applied to the preparation, very little aggregation took place in spite of serotonin 5HT2A antagonists being the most potent inhibitors of thrombus growth in experimental animals. Another indicator that primary platelet agggregation is not a predictor of in vivo efficacy was the finding that 5HT2A antagonism inhibited aggregate growth. In a stenosed artery the platelets are activated by increased shear stress and blood turbulence with release of platelet serotonin causing positive feedback activation of more platelets. At present, there does not seem to be a bench in vitro test that accurately predicts in vivo efficacy in stenosed artery occlusive thrombosis.

Abstract Studies of mice with genetic deficiencies have provided important insights on the functions of many proteins in thrombosis and hemostasis. Recently, a strain of mice (C57BL/6JOlaHsd, an inbred strain of C57BL/6J) has been identified to have a spontaneous, tandem deletion of the multimerin 1 and α-synuclein genes, which are also adjacent genes on human chromosome 4q22. Multimerin 1 is an adhesive protein found in platelets and endothelial cells while α-synuclein is a protein found in the brain and in blood that is implicated in neurodegenerative diseases and exocytosis. In vitro, multimerin 1 supports platelet adhesion while α-synuclein inhibits α-granule release. We postulated that the loss of multimerin 1 and α-synuclein would alter platelet function and that recombinant human multimerin 1 might correct some of these abnormalities. We compared platelet adhesion, aggregation and thrombus formation in vitro and in vivo in C57BL/6JOlaHsd and C57BL/6 mice. Thrombus formation was studied by using the ferric-chloride injured mesenteric arteriole thrombosis model under intravital microscopy. We found that platelet adhesion, aggregation and thrombus formation in C57BL/6JOlaHsd were significantly impaired in comparison to control, C57BL/6 mice. The number of single platelets, deposited 3–5 minutes after injury, was significantly decreased in C57BL/6JOlaHsd mice (P <0.05, platelets/min: C57BL/6 = 157 ± 15, n=16; C57BL/6JOlaHsd = 77 ± 13, n=17). Moreover, thrombus formation in these mice was significantly delayed. Thrombi in C57BL/6JOlaHsd were unstable and easily dissolved, which resulted in significant delays (P<0.001) in vessel occlusion (mean occlusion times: C57BL/6 = 15.6 ± 1.2 min, n=16; C57BL/6JOlaHsd = 31.9 ± 2.1 min, n=17). We further tested platelet function in these mice by ADP and thrombin induced platelet aggregation using platelet rich plasma and gel-filtered platelets, respectively. Although no significant differences were seen with ADP aggregation, thrombin-induced platelet aggregation was significantly impaired in C57BL/6JOlaHsd mice. Platelet adhesion to type I collagen (evaluated using microcapillary chambers, perfused at 1500 s−1 with whole blood) was also impaired in C57BL/6JOlaHsd mice. However, platelets from C57BL/6JOlaHsd mice showed a normal pattern of agonist-induced release of α-granule P-selectin. Multimerin 1 corrected the in vitro aggregation and adhesion defects of C57BL/6JOlaHsd platelets. Furthermore, the transfusion of multimerin 1 into C57BL/6JOlaHsd mice corrected the impaired platelet deposition and thrombus formation in vivo. No significant difference was found in tail bleeding time between the two groups of mice. As α-synuclein knockout mice have a shortened time to thrombus formation (Circulation2007;116:II_76), the effects of multimerin 1 on impaired platelet function in C57BL/6JOlaHsd mice provide supportive evidence that multimerin 1 contributes to platelet adhesion and thrombus formation at the site of vessel injury. The findings suggest multimerin 1 knockout mice will be useful to explore platelet function. The first two authors and participating laboratories contributed equally to this study.

Atherosclerosis is the major cause of cardiovascular disease (CVD), the leading cause of death worldwide. Despite much focus on lipid abnormalities in atherosclerosis, it is clear that the immune system also has important pro- and antiatherogenic functions. The enzyme indoleamine-2,3-dioxygenase (IDO) catalyses degradation of the essential amino acid tryptophan into immunomodulatory metabolites. How IDO deficiency affects immune responses during atherogenesis is unknown and we explored potential mechanisms in models of murine and human atherosclerosis. IDO deficiency in hypercholesterolemic ApoE−/− mice caused a significant increase in lesion size and surrogate markers of plaque vulnerability. No significant changes in cholesterol levels were observed but decreases in IL-10 production were found in the peripheral blood, spleen and lymph node B cells of IDO-deficient compared with IDO-competent ApoE−/− mice. 3,4,-Dimethoxycinnamoyl anthranilic acid (3,4-DAA), an orally active synthetic derivative of the tryptophan metabolite anthranilic acid, but not l-kynurenine, enhanced production of IL-10 in cultured splenic B cells. Finally, 3,4-DAA treatment reduced lesion formation and inflammation after collar-induced arterial injury in ApoE−/− mice, and reduced cytokine and chemokine production in ex vivo human atheroma cell cultures. Our data demonstrate that endogenous production of tryptophan metabolites via IDO is an essential feedback loop that controls atherogenesis and athero-inflammation. We show that the IDO pathway induces production of IL-10 in B cells in vivo and in vitro, suggesting that IDO may induce immunoregulatory functions of B cells in atherosclerosis. The favorable effects of anthranilic acid derivatives in atherosclerosis indicate a novel approach toward therapy of CVD.

L-670,596 ((−)6,8-difluoro-9-p-methylsulfonyl benzyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydrocarbazol-1-yl-acetic acid) has been shown to be a potent receptor antagonist as evidenced by the inhibition of the binding of 125I-labeled PTA-OH to human platelets (IC50, 5.5 × 10−9 M), inhibition of U-44069 induced aggregation of human platelet rich plasma (IC50, 1.1 × 10−7 M), and competitive inhibition of contractions of the guinea pig tracheal chain induced by U-44069 (pA2,9.0). The compound was also active in vivo as shown by inhibition of arachidonic acid and U-44069 induced bronchoconstriction in the guinea pig (ED50 values, 0.04 and 0.03 mg/kg i.v., respectively), U-44069 induced renal vasoconstriction in the pig (ED50, 0.02 mg/kg i.v.), and inhibition of ex vivo aggregation of rhesus monkey platelets to U-44069 (active 1–5 mg/kg p.o.). The selectivity of the compound was indicated by the failure to inhibit, first, ADP-induced human or primate platelet aggregation and, second, bronchoconstriction in the guinea pig in vivo and contraction of the guinea pig tracheal chain in vitro to a variety of agonists. It is concluded that L-670,596 is a potent, selective, orally active thromboxane A2/prostaglandin endoperoxide receptor antagonist.Key words: thromboxane A2, thromboxane antagonist, prostaglandin endoperoxides, platelet aggregation.

Pharmacological Targets

Thrombin (factor IIa) and factor Xa (FXa) are key enzymes at the junction of the intrinsic and extrinsic coagulation pathways and are the most attractive pharmacological targets for the development of novel anticoagulants. Twenty non-amidino N2-thiophencarbonyl- and N2-tosyl anthranilamides 1-20 and six amidino N2-thiophencarbonyl- and N2-tosylanthranilamides 21-26 were synthesized and evaluated prothrombin time (PT) and activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT) using human plasma at concentration 30 &mu;g/mL in vitro. From these results, compounds 5, 9, and 21-23 were selected to study the further antithrombotic activity. The anticoagulant properties of 5, 9, and 21-23 significantly exhibited a concentration-dependent prolongation of in vitro PT and aPTT, in vivo bleeding time, and ex vivo clotting time. These compounds concentration-dependently inhibited the activities of thrombin and FXa and inhibited the generation of thrombin and FXa in human endothelial cells. In addition, data showed that 5, 9, and 21-23 significantly inhibited thrombin catalyzed fibrin polymerization and mouse platelet aggregation and inhibited platelet aggregation induced U46619 in vitro and ex vivo. N-(3'-Amidinophenyl)-2-((thiophen-2''-yl)carbonyl amino)benzamide (21) was most active.
