Background/Aims: End-stage renal disease (ESRD) is associated with a prothrombotic phenotype and substantial activation of platelets can occur in the course of hemodialysis. However, the underlying mechanisms for increased platelet reactivity remain unclear. Increased levels of oxidized albumin, termed “advanced oxidation protein products (AOPPs)” accumulate in subjects with renal disease. Methods: Platelet aggregation was assessed with platelet aggregometry. Platelet activation, formation of reactive oxygen species and tissue factor expression on the surface of platelets and endothelial cells was measured by flow cytometry. Platelet adherence was assessed under flow using the Cellix system. The oxidative status of albumin isolated from ESRD patients was determined by photometric analysis. Tissue factor levels in serum samples were determined using a commercially available ELISA kit. Results: Albumin isolated from hemodialysis patients as well as in vitro generated AOPP-albumin promoted platelet activation via CD36, dependent on the AOPP-content of albumin. AOPP-albumin mediated platelet activation was prevented by scavenging superoxide anions and inhibitors of phospholipase C and protein kinase C. Furthermore, AOPP and serum tissue factor levels were considerably increased in ESRD patients on hemodialysis and a significant correlation of AOPP and serum tissue factor was found. Conclusion: Interaction of platelet CD36 with endogenous oxidized albumin may link oxidative stress with a prothrombotic phenotype in ESRD.

Abstract Gas6 (growth-arrest specific gene 6) plays a role in thrombus stabilization. Gas6 null (−/−) mice are protected from lethal venous and arterial thromboembolism through platelet signaling defects induced only by 5μM ADP and 10μM of the thromboxane analog, U46619. This subtle platelet defect, despite a dramatic clinical phenotype, raises the possibility that Gas6 from a source other than platelets contributes to thrombus formation. Thus, we hypothesize that Gas6 derived from the vascular wall plays a role in venous thrombus formation. Bone marrow transplantation and platelet depletion/reconstitution experiments generating mice with selective ablations of Gas6 from either the hematopoietic or nonhematopoietic compartments demonstrate an approximately equal contribution by Gas6 from both compartments to thrombus formation. Tissue factor expression was significantly reduced in the vascular wall of Gas6−/− mice compared with WT. In vitro, thrombin-induced tissue factor expression was reduced in Gas6−/− endothelial cells compared with wild-type endothelium. Taken together, these results demonstrate that vascular Gas6 contributes to thrombus formation in vivo and can be explained by the ability of Gas6 to promote tissue factor expression and activity. These findings support the notion that vascular wall-derived Gas6 may play a pathophysiologic role in venous thromboembolism.
