Platelet function testing is widely used to diagnose disorders of the cellular link of hemostasis. The study of platelet aggregation activity is relevant for the prevention of thromboembolic complications in atrial fibrillation and monitoring the effectiveness and safety of therapy. In this study, a comparative analysis of spontaneous and stimulated platelet aggregation in groups of patients with two types of atrial fibrillation was performed - paroxysmal and persistent. The effect of β-adrenoblocker therapy on platelet aggregation activity in patients with atrial fibrillation was also studied. Platelet aggregation activity was studied using the method of G. Born in the modification of Z.A. Gabbasov on a two-channel laser analyzer “Biola”. Collagen at a concentration of 2 mg / ml and adrenaline in a concentration range of 2.5-10 μg / ml were used as aggregation-promoting agents. It has been established that spontaneous aggregation potential and collagen-induced platelet aggregation depend on the type of atrial fibrillation, as well as on the presence or absence of β-blockers in therapy. The response of platelets to stimulation with adrenaline depends, first of all, on the type of atrial fibrillation and the concentration of adrenaline in the reaction medium. The most significant changes were noted in the group of patients with a paroxysmal form atrial fibrillation, taking β-blockers in therapy.

SummaryThe platelet aggregating activity of extracts of different layers of the arterial wall was compared to that of Achilles tendon. Arterial media and tendon extracts, adjusted to equivalent protein content as an index of concentration, aggregated platelets to the same extent but an arterial intima extract did not aggregate platelets. Platelet aggregation induced by collagen could be inhibited by mixing with intima extract, but only to a maximum of about 80%. Pre-mixing adenosine diphosphate (ADP) with intima extracts diminished the platelet aggregation activity of the ADP. Depending on the relationship between ADP and intima extract concentrations aggregating activity could either be completely inhibited or inhibition abolished. Incubation of ADP with intima extract and subsequent separation of degradation products by paper chromatography, demonstrated a time-dependent breakdown of ADP with AMP, adenosine, inosine and hypoxanthine as metabolic products; ADP removal was complete. Collagen, thrombin and adrenaline aggregate platelets mainly by endogenous ADP of the release reaction. Results of experiments comparing inhibition of aggregation caused by premixing aggregating agent with intima extract, before exposure to platelets, and the sequential addition of first the intima extract and then aggregating agent to platelets, suggest that the inhibitory effect of intima extract results from ADP breakdown. It is suggested that this ADP degradation by intima extract may play a protective role in vivo by limiting the size of platelet aggregates forming at the site of minimal “wear and tear” vascular trauma.

SummaryPlatelet function defects observed in chronic alcoholics are not wholly explained by the inhibitory action of ethanol on platelet aggregation; they are not completely reproduced either in vivo by short-term ethanol perfusion into volunteers or in vitro by the addition of ethanol to platelet-rich plasma. As acetaldehyde (AcH) binds to many proteins and impairs cellular activities, we investigated the effect of this early degradation product of ethanol on platelets. AcH formed adducts with human platelets at neutral pH at 37° C which were stable to extensive washing, trichloracetic acid hydrolysis and heating at 100° C, and were not reduced by sodium borohydride. The amount of platelet adducts formed was a function of the incubation time and of the concentration of AcH in the reaction medium. At low AcH concentrations (<0.2 mM), platelet bound AcH was directly proportional to the concentration of AcH in the reaction medium. At higher concentrations (≥0.2 mM), AcH uptake by platelets tended to reach a plateau. The amount of adducts was also proportional to the number of exposures of platelets to pulses of 20 pM AcH.AcH adducts formation severely impaired platelet aggregation and shape change induced by ADP, collagen and thrombin. A positive correlation was established between platelet-bound AcH and inhibition of aggregation.SDS-PAGE analysis of AcH adducts at neutral pH demonstrated the binding of [14C]acetaldehyde to many platelet proteins. AcH adduct formation with membrane glycoproteins, cytoskeleton and enzymes might interfere with several steps of platelet activation and impair platelet aggregation.This in vitro study shows that AcH has a major inhibitory action on platelet aggregation and may account for the prolonged ex vivo inhibition of aggregation observed in chronic alcoholics even in the absence of alcoholemia.

Growing environmental problems and increasing requirements of green jobs force universities around the world not only to transform their curricula but also to enrich existing ones with contents related to the promotion of sustainable development. This paper aims to show the importance of measuring and monitoring the share of green contents in all university activities, as only in that way it is possible to monitor trends and give realistic assessments of their effect and importance. The paper presents a comparative analysis of different types of methodologies for assessing sustainable activities at universities as well as research conducted at the University of Novi Sad in Serbia and its comparison with the University of Gothenburg (Sweden). This research aims to point out the importance of increasing competitiveness in higher education through assessment of green content in a curriculum and its promotion. In this way, through eco-labeling methodology, it would be easier to identify those contents that, in a certain share, contribute to the promotion of sustainable development. Furthermore, this methodology can easily be extended across the country and the region, which would bring positive effects to all stakeholders in higher education.

Platelet aggregation mechanisms are studied using standard methods without taking turbulence into account. However, in cardiovascular diseases, the blood rheology changes, and the parameters of the turbulent flow acquire strong prothrombotic effects. The adhesion of several platelets creates a "snowball" effect with platelet hyperaggregation, leading to rapid vessel occlusion. Thus, the study of platelet aggregation in patients with cardiovascular diseases in conditions of creating a "vortex" flow in platelet-rich plasma is very relevant. Objective to study the effect of "vortex" flow in platelet-rich plasma on spontaneous and epinephrine-induced platelet aggregation in patients with CHF. Material and method. We studied 15 patients (75% of them men) with CHD, having CHF I-III FC. Platelet aggregation activity was studied using a turbidimetric method using a laser analyzer (220 LA "NPF Biola", Russia). Platelet aggregation activity in platelet-rich plasma (BTP) was estimated by light transmission curves in % and average aggregate size in relative units (Rel. units), with the inducer epinephrine in concentrations of 2 and 10 mg/ml, with constant stirring at 800 rpm. The same parameters were evaluated byour ownproposed approach with a creation ofa "vortex" plasma flow, which were achieved by changing the mixing rate of BTP from 0 to 800 rpm. Aggregation data is presented as a median with an interquartile range (Me (Q1; Q3)). Statistical data processing was performed using SPSS packages (version 19). The differences were considered significant at a significance level of p &lt; 0.05. Results. In patients with CHF, the indicators of spontaneous aggregation measured by the standard method were 3.1 (1.5; 4.0) % and 1.7 (1.1; 2.0) Rel. units. Under the conditions of a"vortex" flow, the aggregate size increased to 5.4 (3.2; 6.1) Rel. units(p = 0.04). The indicators of standard epinephrine-induced aggregation at a concentration of 2 mg/ml were 46.7 (35.8; 66.2) % and 15.0(11.4; 18.9) Rel. units, and when the mixing speed was changed from 0 to 800 rpm, the indicators increased to 52.7 (41.3; 76.5) % (p = 0.003) and 19.4 (17.3; 20.6) Rel. units(p = 0.04). In conditions of increased epinephrine concentration of 10 mg/ml, the indicators were 52.5 (41.9; 74.5) % (p = 0.03) and 15.8 (12.2; 18.4) Rel. units. Under the conditions of"vortex" flow, aggregation indicators were 75.4 (62.0; 80.5)% (p = 0.04), and the size of aggregates increased to 356.0 (230.5; 462.5) Rel. units. Conclusion. Standard methods for studying of platelet aggregation are not always sufficient to detect an increased pro-aggregative potential of platelets. The proposed method for creationof "vortex" flow conditions showed an increase in the size of platelet aggregates and the degree of aggregation against the background of increased epinephrine concentration in patients with chronic heart failure, which proves its effectiveness in detecting platelet hyperaggregation.
