A serious symptom of cattle affected with Chediak-Higashi syndrome (CHS) is a bleeding tendency. This diathesis is characterized by insufficient platelet aggregation as a result of depressed response to collagen. One possible cause for the depression is a decrease in contribution of endogenous agonists such as ADP or thromboxane A(2), which are released following collagen stimulation. However, these endogenous agonists play only a minor role in collagen-induced aggregation of bovine platelets. More importantly, activation of phospholipase C as a result of a direct action of collagen is depressed, leading to a depression of Ca(2+) mobilization, in platelets from CHS-affected cattle. Several types of collagen receptor are proposed to work in concert to induce aggregation. Among them, glycoprotein VI (GPVI) and GPIa/IIa (integrin alpha2 beta1) have been supposed to play dominant roles in collagen-induced aggregation. However, there are arguments about the role of each receptor, especially the role of GPIa/IIa, and the crosstalk between receptors. Recently, we reported that the Ca(2+) signaling produced by rhodocytin, which had been first reported to be an agonist for the collagen receptor GPIa/IIa, produced much less Ca(2+) signaling in CHS platelets than in normal ones, whereas that produced by GPVI activators was normal. These suggest that GPIa/IIa or the rhodocytin-associated pathway is impaired in CHS platelets. CHS platelets are valuable to reassess the mechanism of collagen-dependent signal transduction system and to delineate the inter-relationship among collagen receptors.  相似文献

Failure of aspirin to impair bovine platelet function   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  
The effect of aspirin on bovine platelet function and thromboxane A2 (TXA2) production in stimulated platelets was evaluated. A single dose of aspirin (100 mg/kg of body weight) was administered orally to Holstein cows, and blood samples were obtained before and at regular intervals for 7 days after treatment. The production of TXA2 was assessed by measuring the stable metabolite thromboxane B2, using a specific radioimmunoassay. Within 4 hours of aspirin administration, the production of TXA2 was significantly (P less than 0.05) decreased, irrespective of whether collagen, adenosine diphosphate, or platelet activating factor was used to initiate platelet aggregation. Despite the inhibition of TXA2 release from the stimulated platelets, platelet function, assessed by initial rate of aggregate formation and extent of aggregation, was unaffected by aspirin administration. The extent of aggregate formation in response to collagen, adenosine diphosphate, or platelet activating factor was independent of the amount of TXA2 released from platelets before and after aspirin treatment. The results suggested that TXA2 formation is not the primary biochemical pathway involved in the aggregation of stimulated bovine platelets.  相似文献

Antithrombotic actions of aspirin in the horse   总被引：4，自引：0，他引：4  
The antithrombotic effects of aspirin at two dose rates (4 mg/kg and 11 mg/kg bodyweight [bwt] were evaluated in normal, healthy ponies by measuring template bleeding time. Inhibition of platelet aggregation in response to adenosine diphosphate (ADP) and collagen was evaluated and cyclo-oxygenase activity was monitored by radioimmunoassay of thromboxane B2 (TXB2), the stable metabolite of thromboxane A2 (TXA2). TXB2 was measured in serum and platelet rich plasma. Bleeding time was prolonged significantly until 48 h after treatment at 12 mg/kg bwt and until 4 h at the lower dose rate. Synthesis of TXB2 and collagen induced aggregation were diminished for much greater periods with similar results at each of the dose rates. The prolonged effects of aspirin on platelet function occurred in spite of a very short plasma half-life of aspirin, because of its irreversible action on platelet cyclo-oxygenase. The results show that low dose aspirin has a potential role in antithrombotic therapy in horses although the relationship between skin bleeding time in normal horses and improvement of clinical conditions requires further research and evaluation in clinical trials. TXB2 measurement appears to overestimate the duration of antithrombotic effects of aspirin in vivo.  相似文献

In Japanese black cattle with large and long-existing hematomas, platelets was impaired in collagen aggregation function in vitro. There was no statistically significant difference from control animals in the tests of PT (prothrombin time) and PTT (partial thromboplastin time) for extrinsic and intrinsic blood coagulation system. Aside from impaired collagen aggregation function, platelets in the hematoma cattle showed the similar aggregation patterns as the normal cattle, when ADP, serotonin (5-HT), thrombin, arachidonic acid, epinephrine and ristocetin were used as agents for inducing aggregation. Decreased aggregation function as well as impaired collagen-induced release response in platelets suggested the hematoma cattle to be of storage pool disease (SPD). The impaired platelet was postulated to be a main cause of the large and long-existing hematomas. All of the hematoma cattle with impaired platelet functions had the eosinophils in peripheral blood of which granules were fewer and larger than normal ones. These large eosinophil granules were peroxidase positive and periodic acid Schiff (PAS) staining negative as typical eosinophil granules.  相似文献

A bleeding disorder due to abnormal platelet function occurs in Simmental cattle. Whole blood from these animals underwent good clot retraction. Platelet aggregation in response to adenosine diphosphate (ADP) and collagen in a whole blood aggregation system was markedly impaired. Normal bovine platelets in a whole blood aggregation system showed very little aggregation in response to epinephrine and arachidonic acid. Aggregation in platelet-rich plasma was negligible in response to ADP, collagen and thrombin. Dense granule release of radiolabelled serotonin from the platelets of one affected cow was similar to that of normal bovine platelets. Platelet membrane glycoprotein electrophoresis with the platelets of one affected cow revealed no quantitative abnormalities. These findings reveal similarities and differences in thrombopathic Simmental platelet function when compared to human Glanzmann's thrombasthenia and Basset Hound thrombopathia.  相似文献

It has been reported that antibiotics of the penicillin family impair the functional response of human, canine and lapine platelets to a broad range of agonists. In contrast, we have shown that the bovine platelet retained full functional responses to stimulation by adenosine diphosphate (ADP) or platelet activating factor (PAF) following administration of penicillin G to clinically normal cattle at 20,000 IU/kg for three days. The aggregation response to collagen was transiently reduced to approximately 50% of pretreatment values, but only while the drug was detectable in the circulation. When penicillin was added to platelet rich plasma suspensions, ADP-induced aggregation was similar to that of the control untreated platelets, while the PAF-induced aggregation response was reduced by not more than 25%. Only collagen-induced aggregation exhibited a modest dose-dependent inhibitory response in the presence of penicillin. It is postulated that the relative insensitivity of the bovine platelet to penicillin may be related to differences in postreceptor biochemical events compared to the human platelet.  相似文献

A four-year-old Standardbred gelding presented with a 3.5 year history of intermittent epistaxis and spontaneous submucosal petechiae and ecchymoses in the nares and the mouth. Routine haematological and biochemical examinations were unremarkable. A thrombocytopathy was suspected when activated partial thromboplastin time, one stage prothrombin time, plasma fibrinogen and the platelet count were all normal. The patient's platelets failed to aggregate with serotonin, adenosine diphosphate, collagen (at 20 micrograms/ml) or the endoperoxide analogue U46619. Very high levels of collagen (100 micrograms/ml) did cause aggregation. The response to the calcium ionophore A23187 was reduced and although complete degranulation occurred the resulting aggregates were unstable. Thromboxane generation in response to collagen and ADP was inferred from the concentration of its stable metabolite thromboxane B2 and was reduced. A diagnosis of a thrombasthenia-like syndrome possibly equivalent to Type II Glanzmann's thrombasthenia in people was made.  相似文献

Platelets are thought to play a role in equine diseases such as acute laminitis and verminous arteritis and may be involved in allergic disease. Mediators implicated in the pathophysiology of these conditions activate platelets and responses may be enhanced by interactions between mediators. The present study compared platelet aggregation, thromboxane production and release of radiolabelled [(3)H]5- HT in response to 5- HT, histamine, ADP and PAF alone and in combination in vitro.PAF caused concentration-related aggregation, [(3)H]5- HT release and thromboxane production. In contrast, ADP caused aggregation and 5- HT induced the release of [(3)H]5- HT with little effect on other platelet functions. Histamine had little or no effect on equine platelets. Addition of 5- HT (10 microM) prior to ADP significantly displaced the aggregation response curve to the left.The profile of responses to PAF, ADP and 5- HT suggests differential activation of intracellular signalling pathways regulating these events. The enhanced response to ADP in the presence of 5- HT may have implications in thromboembolic disease in the horse.  相似文献

The beige (bgJ/bgJ) mouse is a well-described murine model of Chediak-Higashi syndrome. Platelet function was examined in normal and beige mice to better characterize the defective aggregation response in platelets from mice with Chediak-Higashi syndrome. Platelet aggregation after collagen, thrombin, and phorbol-12-myristate 13-acetate stimulation was significantly (P less than 0.025) decreased in platelets from beige mice, relative to platelets from normal mice. Compared with beige and normal mice, those heterozygous for the bg trait had intermediate responses to collagen and thrombin, but not phorbol-12-myristate 13-acetate. The defect(s) in aggregation of platelets from beige mice was associated with a dense granule storage pool deficiency and decreased stores of serotonin and adenine nucleotides in platelets. Mice heterozygous for the bg trait had normal platelet serotonin and adenine nucleotide concentrations. Platelets from beige mice were approximately 10 times more sensitive to prostacyclin inhibition of collagen-induced aggregation than were platelets from control mice. However, a significant difference in platelet cyclic AMP concentration was not apparent between beige and normal mice after prostacyclin stimulation. Platelet endoperoxide synthesis measured by quantification of thromboxane B2, was normal in beige mice. Protein phosphorylation patterns in mouse platelets were similar to those seen in human platelets. Thrombin and collagen-induced [32P] phosphorylation of 40- and 20-kD proteins in platelets from normal and beige mice was similar. Results indicate that the biochemical defect(s) in platelet function in beige mice is partially attributable to storage pool deficiency and does not result in an absolute defect in phosphorylation of 40- and 20-kD proteins.  相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To determine whether viral involvement with platelets obtained from cattle persistently infected (PI) with bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV) is associated with altered platelet function or decreased platelet counts. SAMPLE POPULATION: Platelets obtained from 8 cattle PI with BVDV and 6 age-, sex-, and breed-matched uninfected control cattle. PROCEDURE: Manual platelet counts were determined, and platelet function was assessed through optical aggregometry by use of the aggregation agonists ADP and platelet-activating factor. Identification of BVDV in serum and preparations of purified platelets was determined by use of virus isolation tests. RESULTS: No significant difference in platelet counts was detected between cattle PI with BVDV and control cattle. In response to the aggregation agonists, maximum aggregation percentage and slope of the aggregation curve were not significantly different between cattle PI with BVDV and control cattle. We isolated BVDV from serum of all PI cattle and from purified platelets of 6 of 8 PI cattle, but BVDV was not isolated from serum or platelets of control cattle. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Isolation of BVDV from platelets in the peripheral circulation of cattle immunotolerant to BVDV does not result in altered platelet function or decreases in platelet counts.  相似文献

The effect of feline infectious peritonitis virus (FIPV) on platelet aggregation and 14C-serotonin release induced by threshold levels of four agonists (adenosine diphosphate [ADP], collagen, arachidonic acid, and epinephrine) was examined in vitro in ten specific-pathogen-free cats. Purified suspensions of FIPV added to stirred platelet suspensions (virus to platelet ratio equal to 1:320) 1 minute prior to the addition of agonist potentiated the ADP-induced aggregation response by greater than 100% in seven cats. Platelet 14C-serotonin release was increased by greater than 100% in four cats. Collagen-induced platelet aggregation was enhanced in ten cats while collagen-induced 14C-serotonin release was enhanced in eight cats. Potentiation of arachidonic acid-induced platelet aggregation was observed in three cats, two of which demonstrated enhanced platelet 14C-serotonin release. Although epinephrine-induced platelet aggregation was enhanced in five cats, the samples displayed only fine microaggregates. Enhanced 14C-serotonin release from platelets in response to epinephrine was not demonstrated. Interaction with the outer platelet membrane and internalization of viral particles within the surface-connected open canalicular system were demonstrated by electron microscopy within 5 minutes of the addition of virus to platelet suspensions with or without added agonists. Decreasing the virus concentration by ten- or one hundred-fold abolished the potentiating effect observed previously, while increasing the concentration tenfold resulted in direct platelet activation in the absence of agonist.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs impair platelet aggregation and secretion in man, pigs, and rabbits and inhibit platelet thromboxane/prostaglandin synthesis. The present investigation studied the effects of phenylbutazone on platelet aggregation and bleeding times in the horse. Aggregation responses to adenosine diphosphate and collagen were markedly impaired 15 minutes and 2 hours after treatment, but 4 hours after treatment, platelet responses approximated those prior to treatment. The in vivo effect of phenylbutazone correlated with its plasma concentrations. Phenylbutazone, like aspirin, appeared to exert its effect by inhibiting thromboxane/prostaglandin synthesis, because thrombin-induced malondialdehyde formation was inhibited. However, unlike aspirin, free arachidonate-induced malondialdehyde synthesis was reduced but not eliminated, which suggested that phenylbutazone may have more than one site of action. Although collagen-induced platelet aggregation was impaired, a response was still present, and bleeding times were not altered by phenylbutazone treatment. To account for these findings, it is proposed that equine platelets can respond to collagen by thromboxane/prostaglandin independent pathways. The physiologic and pathophysiologic importance of these findings is discussed.  相似文献

BACKGROUND: Clinical studies investigating platelet function in dogs have had conflicting results that may be caused by normal physiologic variation in platelet response to agonists. OBJECTIVES: The objective of this study was to investigate platelet function in clinically healthy dogs of 4 different breeds by whole-blood aggregometry and with a point-of-care platelet function analyzer (PFA-100), and to evaluate the effect of acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) administration on the results from both methods. METHODS: Forty-five clinically healthy dogs (12 Cavalier King Charles Spaniels [CKCS], 12 Cairn Terriers, 10 Boxers, and 11 Labrador Retrievers) were included in the study. Platelet function was assessed by whole-blood aggregation with ADP (1, 5, 10, and 20 microM) as agonist and by PFA-100 using collagen and epinephrine (Col + Epi) and Col + ADP as agonists. Plasma thromboxane B(2) concentration was determined by an enzyme immunoassay. To investigate the effect of ASA, 10 dogs were dosed daily (75 or 250 mg ASA orally) for 4 consecutive days. RESULTS: A higher platelet aggregation response was found in CKCS compared to the other breeds. Longer PFA-100 closure time (Col + Epi) was found in Cairn Terriers compared to Boxers. Plasma thromboxane B(2) concentration was not statistically different between groups. Administration of ASA prolonged the PFA-100 closure times, using Col + Epi (but not Col + ADP) as agonists. Furthermore, ASA resulted in a decrease in whole-blood platelet aggregation. CONCLUSIONS: Platelet function is influenced by breed, depending upon the methodology applied. However, the importance of these breed differences remains to be investigated. The PFA-100 method with Col + Epi as agonists, and ADP-induced platelet aggregation appear to be sensitive to ASA in dogs.  相似文献

Platelet aggregation and adenosine triphosphate (ATP) release were measured by use of the impedance method in blood samples obtained from 25 adult female Beagles before and after sedation with acepromazine (0.13 mg/kg of body weight) and atropine (0.05 mg/kg), and during general anesthesia. General anesthesia was induced by IV administration of thiamylal (average dosage, 2.1 mg/kg; range, 1.2 to 4.2 mg/kg) and was maintained with halothane in oxygen. Samples of jugular venous blood were obtained from each dog, using citrate as anticoagulant. Platelet count was done on each sample. Platelet aggregation and ATP released from the aggregating platelets were measured within 2.5 hours of sample collection, using a whole-blood aggregometer. Adenosine diphosphate (ADP) or collagen was used as aggregating agent. For each aggregating agent, platelet aggregation and ATP release were measured over 6 minutes. After sedation with acepromazine and atropine, significant (P < 0.01) reduction was observed in platelet count (from median values of 341,000 cells/microliters to 283,000 cells/microliters) and in the ability of platelets to aggregate in response to ADP (from 14.0 to 7.0 omega). During the same period, maximal release of ATP in response to collagen also was reduced (from 5.56 mumol to 4.57 mumol; P < 0.01); however, this difference ceased to be significant when ATP release was normalized for platelet count. During general anesthesia and surgery (200 minutes after sedation), platelet count and aggregation responses to ADP and collagen had returned to presedation values. None of the dogs in this study appeared to have hemostasis problems during surgery.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

Equine platelet aggregation responses to bovine collagen, adenosine diphosphate (ADP), serotonin, epinephrine, and arachidonate in a platelet aggregometer were recorded. Equine platelets exhibited irreversible aggregation when incubated with ADP at a final concentration of 10 microM and bovine collagen. A secondary aggregation wave was recorded from platelets from certain horses at final ADP concentrations of 1 to 5 microM. Serotonin and arachidonate induced a weak reversible aggregation response, but a response was not observed following epinephrine addition. Equine platelet aggregation was influenced by concentration of anticoagulant (sodium citrate). Platelet aggregation responses at 37 C were indistinguishable from those recorded at 39 C. Platelet aggregation responses also were altered if the aggregation tests were not performed within 4 hours of blood sample acquisition. An assessment of platelet aggregation from multiple blood samples from the same horse indicated that the procedures described provide a reliable method to assess equine platelet aggregation in vitro.  相似文献

Background: Limited information exists regarding hemostasis in camelids despite the importance of platelet function testing in the accurate identification of platelet disorders. As further importation of llamas to North America is restricted, variability in breeding stock will continue to decrease, potentially leading to an increase in heritable bleeding disorders. Objective: The objective of this study was to measure platelet aggregation responses in clinically healthy llamas and provide baseline data to which abnormal platelet function may be compared in the future. Methods: Blood samples were collected from 39 healthy adult llamas, citrated, and centrifuged to produce platelet‐rich plasma (PRP). Within 4 hours of the blood draw, 20 μL of each agonist reagent were added to 180 μL of PRP. Final concentrations of agonists were 2 × 10?5 M ADP, 0.19 mg collagen/mL PRP, 1 × 10?4 M epinephrine, and 500 μg arachidonic acid/mL PRP. Results: Llama platelets were most responsive to ADP and collagen, with a maximum percent aggregation (mean±SD) of 71.3±18.6% and 55.8±19% and aggregation rates of 9.5±3.9 and 6.7±3.7 cm/min, respectively. Llama platelet aggregation in response to epinephrine and arachidonic acid was minimal to absent. Conclusions: This study is the first of its kind to establish baseline values for platelet aggregation in healthy adult llamas.  相似文献

Background: Critically ill horses are susceptible to thrombotic disease, which might be related to increased platelet reactivity and activation. Objectives: To compare the effect of oral clopidogrel and aspirin (ASA) on equine platelet function. Animals: Six healthy adult horses. Methods: Horses received clopidogrel (2 mg/kg PO q24h) or ASA (5 mg/kg PO q24h) for 5 days in a prospective randomized cross‐over design. Platelet aggregation responses to adenosine diphosphate (ADP) and collagen via optical aggregometry, and platelet secretion of serotonin (5HT) and production of thromboxane B2 (TXB2) by ELISA were evaluated. In horses receiving clopidogrel, high‐performance liquid chromatography analysis for clopidogrel and its carboxylic‐acid metabolite SR 26334 was performed. Results: SR 26334 was identified in all clopidogrel‐treated horses, although the parent compound was not detected. Clopidogrel resulted in decreases in ADP‐induced platelet aggregation persisting for 120 hours after the final dose. ADP‐induced platelet aggregation decreased from a baseline of 70.2 ± 14.7% to a minimum of 15.9 ± 7.7% 24 hours after the final dose (P < .001). Collagen‐induced aggregation decreased from a baseline of 93 ± 9.5% to a minimum of 70.8 ± 16.9% 48 hours after the final dose (P < .001). ASA did not decrease platelet aggregation with either agonist. ASA decreased serum TXB2 from a baseline value of 1310 ± 1045 to 128 ± 64 pg/mL within 24 hours (P < .01). Conclusions and Clinical Importance: Clopidogrel effectively decreases ADP‐induced platelet aggregation in horses, and could have therapeutic applications for equine diseases associated with platelet activation.  相似文献

Platelet function was evaluated in six specific-pathogen-free cats prior to and following intraperitoneal inoculation with feline infectious peritonitis virus (FIPV). By 4 days post-inoculation, platelet samples from five of six cats responded with irreversible platelet aggregation to threshold concentrations of adenosine diphosphate (ADP). This was accompanied by enhanced platelet 14C-serotonin release (greater than 10%) in two cats. Compared to one of six baseline samples, five of five post-inoculation samples exhibited microaggregate formation in response to 20 microM epinephrine. Enhanced platelet 14C-serotonin release did not accompany these responses. Enhanced platelet responses to ADP and epinephrine were also observed on day 11 post-inoculation and day 16 (when one cat died) or 21 (the end of the study). Platelet 14C-serotonin release in response to 20 microM epinephrine increased markedly in three of five cats on day 21. Enhanced collagen-induced platelet responses were not demonstrated. Although the mechanism for the enhanced platelet responses observed on day 4 was unknown, a direct effect on the virus on platelets, mononuclear inflammatory cells, and endothelial cells must be considered.  相似文献

Platelet Aggregation in Feline Cardiomyopathy   总被引：2，自引：0，他引：2  
Platelet aggregation in response to adenosine diphosphate (ADP) was evaluated in 16 healthy cats and in 10 cats with cardiomyopathy. The minimum threshold concentration of ADP required to induce irreversible (2nd-phase) aggregation was determined in each cat. The minimum ADP concentration needed for 2nd-phase aggregation in platelets from healthy cats ranged from 1 microM to 100 microM ADP, with 56% (9/16) requiring 100 microM ADP. Of the remaining seven normal cats, three had platelets responding irreversibly to 10 microM ADP, and four had platelets responding to 1 microM ADP. In cats with cardiomyopathy, the threshold concentrations ranged from 0.01 microM ADP to 10 microM ADP. Two cats had platelets responding irreversibly to 0.01 microM ADP, whereas another cat had a threshold response at 0.1 microM ADP. Platelets from the remaining seven cats with cardiomyopathy exhibited 2nd-phase aggregation in response to 1 microM ADP (five cats) or 10 microM ADP (two cats). Platelet counts ranged from 210,000/mm3 to 630,000/mm3 in healthy cats and from 218,000/mm3 to 624,000/mm3 in cats with cardiomyopathy. There was no apparent correlation between the platelet count and the magnitude of the threshold aggregation response, as measured by lag phase and slope of the aggregation curves. The results indicate that some cats with cardiomyopathy have platelets that are hyperaggregable to ADP in vitro.  相似文献

Objective: To review the current understanding of the mechanisms responsible for primary hemostasis and to give an overview of primary hemostatic syndromes in small animal patients. Current and future therapeutic options for dysfunction of primary hemostasis are discussed. Data sources: A thorough search of the human and veterinary literature using the keywords platelets, primary hemostasis, von Willebrand factor (vWF), von Willebrand disease, aspirin, thromboxane, and aggregation, were performed. Databases searched included OVID Medline, Pubmed, and CAB abstracts. Conclusions: Primary hemostasis occurs when platelets adhere to an injured or disrupted endothelial surface. Adherence is followed by activation, or the release of platelet granule contents. The agonists released from platelet granules recruit additional platelets and induce their activation and aggregation. Adhesion, activation, and aggregation are mediated by different receptors and ligands depending on the local blood flow conditions. vWF and adenosine diphosphate are the primary mediators of adhesion, activation, and aggregation under high shear conditions. During low shear conditions collagen, fibronectin, and laminin mediate adhesion, thromboxane A2 promotes activation, while aggregation is mediated by glycoprotein Ib‐IX‐V (GP Ib–IX–V) and fibrinogen. Knowledge of the receptor interactions during different blood flow conditions is crucial to the understanding of the various inhibitors of primary hemostasis available to clinicians.  相似文献
