SummaryTreatment of washed rabbit platelets with 1 u/ml of thrombin at 37° C resulted in a disappearance from platelets of a protein with 250,000 dalton molecular weight which was shown to be originated from plasma membrane. Parallel loss of adenyl cyclase was noted, and both reactions were complete within 30 sec. From the patterns of disc electrophoretograms, the importance of quick suppression of thrombin action in demonstrating the primary event was stressed.Thrombin induced an apparent activation of membrane bound phosphodiesterase. This reaction was also complete within 30 sec. The cellular component which contained the enzyme activity was distinct from plasma membrane. Soluble phosphodiesterase was not influenced by thrombin at all.These reactions required intact platelet cells to react with thrombin, and no reaction was detected when subcellular preparations were treated with thrombin.Possibility of collaboration of changes in externally located synthetic enzyme with those in internally located degrading enzyme in the early phase of thrombin action on platelets was suggested.

Fine structural localization of adenosine triphosphatase activity was studied in human platelets briefly fixed in cold formol calcium and then incubated in lead medium with added dinitrophenol. Under these conditions, the Mg++-dependent dinitrophenol-stimulated adenosine triphosphatase of platelet mitochondria was demonstrated, but neither granules nor plasma membrane showed enzyme activity.

Gastric ulcer (GU), a prevalent digestive disease, has a high incidence and is seriously harmful to human health. Finding a natural drug with a gastroprotective effect is needed. Ocotillol, the derivate of ocotillol-type saponins in the Panax genus, possesses good anti-inflammatory activity. The study aimed to investigate the gastroprotective effect of ocotillol on acetic acid-induced GU rats. The serum levels of endothelin-1 (ET-1) and nitric oxide (NO), the gastric mucosa levels of epidermal growth factor, superoxide dismutase and NO were assessed. Hematoxylin and eosin staining of gastric mucosa for pathological changes and immunohistochemical staining of ET-1, epidermal growth factor receptors and inducible nitric oxide synthase were evaluated. A UPLC-QTOF-MS-based serum metabolomics approach was applied to explore the latent mechanism. A total of 21 potential metabolites involved in 7 metabolic pathways were identified. The study helps us to understand the pathogenesis of GU and to provide a potential natural anti-ulcer agent.
