Septic shock down-regulates L -arginine /NOS /NO pathway of platelet and aortic intima in rats     

CUI Yu-ying  TANG Chao-shu  GENG Bin  FENG Hao-lou 《园艺学报》2008,24(3):470-475

AIM: To investigate alteration and cross link of the aortic and platelet endogenous L -arginine/NOS/NO pathway induced by septic shock.METHODS: The septic shock model was made in rats by caecal ligation and puncture. NO^-₂/NO^-₃ production released from aortic and platelet was measured with Greiss assay. NOS activity and L-arginine transport activity were detected by isotope tracer method. RESULTS: Both in early and late stage of septic shock, NO^-₂/NO^-₃ production, NOS activity, and the L-arginine transport from the aorta intima and platelets were obviously decreased, while those of the aorta media and adventitia were obviously increased (P<0.01), but high-affinity L-arginine transport activity from the aorta intima and platelets was increased in early stage of septic shock (P>0.05 and P<0.05), as compared with the sham group, respectively. The inhibitory effects of NO^-₂/NO^-₃, NOS activity and the L-arginine transport showed a positive correlation between platelet and aortic intima (P<0.01). CONCLUSION: Septic shock down-regulates endogenous L-arginine/NOS/NO pathway in aortic intima and platelet, up-regulates L-arginine/NOS/NO pathway of aortic media and adventitia. Detection of the alteration of endogenous L-arginine/NOS/NO pathway in platelet might act as an indirect method to assess the endothelial dysfunction involving the pathogensis of septic shock.  相似文献   

Platelet function in the racing thoroughbred: implication for exercise-induced pulmonary hemorrhage     

Weiss DJ  McClay CB  Smith CM  Rao GH  White JG 《Veterinary clinical pathology / American Society for Veterinary Clinical Pathology》1990,19(2):35-39

Platelet function was evaluated in horses with exercise-induced pulmonary hemorrhage (bleeder) and in control horses (nonbleeder). Platelet aggregation, secretion, and adhesion to rabbit aortic subendothelium were similar for bleeders and nonbleeders. Platelets readily aggregated in response to ADP, thrombin, collagen, and arachidonic acid, but platelet secretion occurred only with high concentrations of thrombin. Platelets readily adhered to rabbit aortic subendothelium and tended to form large thrombi rather than platelet monolayers or aggregates. These data suggest that horses may be predisposed to thrombus formation and subsequent microvascular obstruction.  相似文献   

Correlation of spurious potassium elevation and platelet count in dogs     

Degen MA 《Veterinary clinical pathology / American Society for Veterinary Clinical Pathology》1986,15(3):20-22

Paired serum and plasma electrolyte determinations were measured on 26 dogs. The difference between plasma and serum electrolyte concentrations was compared to the platelet and leukocyte counts. An increase in serum potassium concentration over plasma potassium concentration was found which correlated linearly with the platelet count. No correlation with white cell count was found. A statistically significant increase in serum sodium concentration over plasma sodium concentration was also noted, however, this change did not correlate with the number of platelets or white cells. It is concluded that thrombocytosis, previously known to cause spurious elevation in serum potassium concentration in humans, can also do so in dogs and, presumably, other species.  相似文献   

Epidemiologic survey of thrombocytopenia in dogs: a report on 987 cases     

Grindem CB  Breitschwerdt EB  Corbett WT  Jans HE 《Veterinary clinical pathology / American Society for Veterinary Clinical Pathology》1991,20(2):38-43

Thrombocytopenia was documented in 987 of 18,910 (5.2%) dogs admitted to North Carolina State University, College of Veterinary Medicine, Veterinary Teaching Hospital, between 1983 and 1989. Classifying thrombocytopenic dogs by etiologic groups revealed the following proportionate ratios: 5% (48/987) immune-mediated thrombocytopenia; 13% (130/987) neoplasia-associated thrombocytopenia; 23% (224/987) inflammatory/infectious thrombocytopenia; and 59% (585/987) miscellaneous thrombocytopenia. Dogs with immune-mediated thrombocytopenia had significantly (P < 0.05) lower platelet counts (mean 36,760 +/- 50,288 microliter) than dogs in the other three groups, and Doberman Pinschers were overrepresented in all groups except the immune-mediated thrombocytopenic group. We conclude that thrombocytopenia is a prevalent and potentially important diagnostic finding in a variety of disease states.  相似文献   

Comparison of flow cytometry with the Sysmex XT2000iV automated analyzer for the detection of reticulated platelets in dogs     

Alexander Pankraz  Natali Bauer  Andreas Moritz 《Veterinary clinical pathology / American Society for Veterinary Clinical Pathology》2009,38(1):30-38

Background: Immature (reticulated) platelets (r‐PLT) are not routinely assessed by hematology analyzers, but may be useful in the evaluation of the bone marrow response to thrombocytopenia. Objective: The aim of this study was to compare the Sysmex XT2000iV hematology analyzer with standard flow cytometry for the determination of r‐PLT percentage in dogs. Methods: Blood samples were obtained from 40 healthy dogs, 12 thrombocytopenic dogs, and 6 dogs with normal platelet counts but with disorders associated with increased thrombopoiesis. The percentage of r‐PLT was determined with a FACscan flow cytometer (r‐PLT[F]) using CD61‐phycoerythrin antibody and thiazole orange, and with the PLT‐O channel of the Sysmex analyzer (r‐PLT[S]). Mean platelet volume, platelet distribution width, and platelet large cell ratio were also determined on the Sysmex. Repeatability (intra‐assay precision) and effect of storage were tested for the automated analyzer. Results: The reference interval (mean±1.96 X SD) for r‐PLT(F) was 1.91±1.29% (range 0.78–3.68%) and for r‐PLT(S) was 0.56±0.82% (range 0.11–2.16%). For both flow cytometry and the Sysmex, the patient group had a significantly higher mean percentage of r‐PLT compared with the control group (P<.0001, unpaired Student's t‐tests). Fair correlation (r=0.71; Spearman's regression analysis) was found for r‐PLT results between the 2 methods, and a negative proportional systematic bias of ?6.26 was found for the Sysmex (Bland–Altman analysis). Based on receiver operating characteristic curves and a cut‐off of ≥0.975%, a sensitivity of 94.7% and a specificity of 85.7% were obtained for detecting r‐PLT on the Sysmex, using flow cytometry as the reference method. Blood samples stored at 4 °C and 25 °C had a significant increase in the percentage of r‐PLT after 24 and 48 hours, respectively. Conclusions: The PLT‐O channel of the Sysmex XT2000iV is capable of detecting immature platelets in healthy, thrombocytopenic, and nonthrombocytopenic ill dogs.  相似文献   

Effect of polymorphonuclear leukocytes on washed platelet aggregation     

SHEN Zhi-qiang  WU Lan-ou  DUAN Li  CHEN Zhi-he  LEI Wei-ya  LIU Ji-kai 《园艺学报》2002,18(7):801-803

AIM:To investigate the effect of non-activated or activated polymorphonuclear leukocytes(PMN) on washed platelet aggregation. METHODS:Born's method was used to determine platelet aggregation.RESULTS:non-activated PMN (5×10⁹ cells/L) significantly suppressed washed platelet aggregation induced by ADP or arachidonic acid. Aspirin enhanced this inhibition. N-formyl-methiongl-leucy-phenylalanine (fMLP)-or platelet-activating factor (PAF)-stimulated PMN strongly induced platelet aggregation, and the induction effect of PMN suspension was more active than that of PMN supernatant. Aspirin had no significant inhibitory effect on platelet aggregation induced by fMLP-or PAF-activated PMN. CONCLUSIONS:Different conditions of PMN (activated or non-activated) had the nearly opposite action on normal platelet reactivity. Briefly, non-activated-PMN inhibited platelet reactivity, whereas activated PMN stimulated it.  相似文献   

The influence of oral simvastatin and vitamine-E on serum LDL oxidation and platelet activation in coronary artery disease patients     

YANG Zhi-ming  GAO Yu-zhen  XIAO Chuan-shi  BIAN Yun-fei  LIANG Shu-fen  WANG Feng-zi 《园艺学报》2000,16(6):495-497

AIM: Using simvastatin and vitamine E (Vit-E) treatment to coronary artery disease (CAD) patients with low HDL, to investigate the relationship between Ox-LDL, platelet activation and HDL. METHODS: 40 CAD patients with low HDL were divided into two groups (A and B): A group oral simvastatin, B group oral simvastatin and Vit-E. The level of serum Ox-LDL, TXB₂ and GMP-140 were measured before and after treatment. The relationship between Ox-LDL, TXB₂, GMP-140 and HDL were analysed. RESULTS:The level of serum HDL was significantly increased in A and B group after treatment and attained normal level. The level of serum Ox-LDL, TXB₂ and GMP-140 were decreased significantly after simvastatin and Vit-E treatment and neared normal. CONCLUSIONS:This study confirmed that HDL can effectively refrain LDL oxidation. It also revealed that Vit-E and simvastatin treatment were more effectively refrained platelet activation by increasement of HDL and decreasement of Ox-LDL.  相似文献

AIM: To investigate the biological activity of thrombopoietin Ⅱ(TPOⅡ) in vivo, which consists of two new kinds of ligand binding with thrombopoietin receptor. METHODS: Purified ligandⅠof TPOⅡ, artificial compound ligandⅡ of TPOⅡand rhTPO were injected into purebred Babl/c mice respectively in 7 days by intraperitoneal injection once for a day. Then the biological activity of TPOⅡ was analyzed by measuring peripheral platelet counts by the end of the seventh day. RESULTS: On the seventh day, the platelet counts of mice treated by ligandⅠof TPOⅡ were higher than that in the negative control group(P＜0.05), while not significantly different from the platelet counts of mice treated by rhTPO(P＞0.05). On the fourteenth day, the platelet counts increased in two all experimental groups of TPOⅡcompared with negative control group(P＜0.01), while not significantly different from the platelet counts of mice treated by rhTPO too(P＞0.05). Moreover the platelet counts of mice in two experimental groups of TPOⅡ and the positive group showed increase with experimental days. CONCLUSION: The purified ligandⅠof TPOⅡ had obvious activity in increasing platelet production, which is not different from the effect of rhTPO.  相似文献
