Abstract
Platelets are anucleate cells that are essential for hemostasis and wound healing. Upon activation of the cell surface receptors by their corresponding extracellular ligands, platelets undergo rapid shape change driven by the actin cytoskeleton; this shape change reaction is modulated by a diverse array of actin-binding proteins. One actin-binding protein, filamin A (FLNA), cross-links and stabilizes subcortical actin filaments thus providing stability to the cell membrane. In addition, FLNA binds the intracellular portion of multiple cell surface receptors and acts as a critical intracellular signaling scaffold that integrates signals between the platelet's plasma membrane and the actin cytoskeleton. This mini-review summarizes how FLNA transduces critical cell signals to the platelet cytoskeleton.

Abstract
Enhanced platelet activation and thrombosis are linked to various cardiovascular diseases (CVD). Among other mechanisms, oxidative stress seems to play a pivotal role in platelet hyperactivity. Indeed, upon stimulation by physiological agonists, human platelets generate and release several types of reactive oxygen species (ROS) such as O2 -, H2O2 or OH-, further amplifying the platelet activation response via various signalling pathways, including, formation of isoprostanes, Ca2+ mobilization and NO inactivation. Furthermore, excessive platelet ROS generation, incorporation of free radicals from environment and/or depletion of antioxidants induce pro-oxidant, pro-inflammatory and platelet hyperaggregability effects, leading to the incidence of cardiovascular events. Here, we review the current knowledge regarding the effect of oxidative stress on platelet signaling pathways and its implication in CVD such as type 2 diabetes mellitus. We also summarize the role of natural antioxidants included in vegetables, fruits and medicinal herbs in reducing platelet function via an oxidative stress-mediated mechanism.

Abstract
Among the Ca2+ entry mechanisms in platelets, store-operated Ca2+ entry (SOCE) plays a prominent role as it is necessary to achieve full activation of platelet functions and replenish intracellular Ca2+ stores. In platelets, as in other non-excitable cells, SOCE has been reported to involve the activation of plasma membrane channels by the ER Ca2+ sensor STIM1. Despite electrophysiological studies are not possible in human platelets, indirect analyses have revealed that the Ca2+-permeable channels involve Orai1 and, most likely, TRPC1 subunits. A relevant role for the latter has not been found in mouse platelets. There is a body of evidence revealing a number of abnormalities in SOCE or in its molecular regulators that result in qualitative platelet disorders and, as a consequence, altered platelet responsiveness upon stimulation with multiple physiological agonists. Platelet SOCE abnormalities include STIM1 and Orai1 mutations. This chapter summarizes the current knowledge in this field, as well as the disorders associated to platelet SOCE dysfunction.

Abstract
Changes in cytosolic Ca(2+) concentration ([Ca(2+)]c) regulate granule secretion in different cell types. Thrombin activates PAR1 and PAR4 receptors and promotes release of Ca(2+) from distinct intracellular stores, which, in turn, activates store-operated Ca(2+) entry (SOCE). A crucial step during platelet function is the release of physiological agonists stored in secretory granules to the extracellular compartment during activation. We aim to study the role of Ca(2+) mobilization from the extracellular compartment or from different intracellular stores in platelet granule secretion. By using flow cytometry, we have found that α- and δ-granules are secreted in thrombin-stimulated platelets in the absence of extracellular Ca(2+), and in a concentration-dependent manner. Our findings show that thrombin-stimulated granule secretion depends on Ca(2+) mobilization from intracellular stores. Analysis of the kinetics of granule secretion reveals that platelet stimulation with thrombin results in rapid release of α-granules which precedes the secretion of δ-granules. Incubation of platelets with a specific antibody, which recognizes the extracellular amino acid sequence 573-586 of TRPC6, inhibited thrombin-evoked δ-granule exocytosis. Our results indicate that the mechanisms underlying thrombin-induced α- and δ-granule secretion show differences in dependency on Ca(2+) mobilization.

Abstract
Background Melatonin regulates several physiological processes and its powerful action as antioxidant has been widely reported. Melatonin acts modulating the immune system, showing a protective effect on the cardiovascular system and improving vaccine administration as an adjuvant-like agent. Here, we have investigated the role of melatonin as an adjuvant of the Clostridium perfringens vaccine in prepartum sheep and whether melatonin modulates platelet physiology during peripartum. Results The experiments were carried out in peripartum sheep from a farm located in an area of Mediterranean-type ecosystem. Plasma melatonin levels were determined by ELISA and sheep platelet aggregation was monitored using an aggregometer. Here we demonstrated for the first time that plasma melatonin concentration were higher in pregnant (125 pg/mL) than in non-pregnant sheep (15 pg/mL; P < 0.05). Administration of melatonin prepartum did not significantly modify platelet function but significantly improved the immune response to vaccination against C. perfringens. Conclusion Administration of melatonin as an adjuvant provides a significant improvement in the immune response to vaccine administration prepartum against C. perfringens.

Abstract
Stromal interaction molecule 1 (STIM1) is a key element of the store-operated Ca(2+) entry mechanism (SOCE). Recently, regulation of STIM1 by glycosylation and phosphorylation on serine/threonine or proline residues has been described; however other modes of phosphorylation that are important for activating SOCE in platelets, such as tyrosine phosphorylation, have been poorly investigated. Here we investigate the latency of STIM1 phosphorylation on tyrosine residues during the first steps of SOCE activation. Human platelets were stimulated and fixed at desired times using rapid kinetic assays instruments, and immunoprecipitation and western blotting techniques were then used to investigate the pattern of STIM1 tyrosine phosphorylation during the first steps of SOCE activation. We have found that maximal STIM1 tyrosine phosphorylation occurred 2.5s after stimulation of human platelets with thapsigargin (Tg). STIM1 localized in the plasma membrane were also phosphorylated in platelets stimulated with Tg. By using chemical inhibitors that target different members of the Src family of tyrosine kinases (SKFs), two independent signaling pathways involved in STIM1 tyrosine phosphorylation during the first steps of SOCE activation were identified. We finally conclude that STIM1 tyrosine phosphorylation is a key event for the association of STIM1 with plasma membrane Ca(2+) channels such as Orai1, hence it is required for conducting SOCE activation.

Abstract
Synaptic transmission is a finely regulated mechanism of neuronal communication. The release of neurotransmitter at the synapse is not only the reflection of membrane depolarization events, but rather, is the summation of interactions between ion channels, G protein coupled receptors, second messengers, and the exocytotic machinery itself which exposes the components within a synaptic vesicle to the synaptic cleft. The focus of this review is to explore the role of G protein signaling as it relates to neurotransmission, as well as to discuss the recently determined inhibitory mechanism of Gβγ dimers acting directly on the exocytotic machinery proteins to inhibit neurotransmitter release.

Abstract
Bioactive peptides derived from milk proteins are of particular interest to the food industry due to the potential functional and physiological roles that they demonstrate, particularly in relation to cardiovascular disease (CVD). By 2020 it is estimated that heart disease and stroke will become the leading cause of death and disability worldwide. Acute and chronic cardiovascular events may result from alterations in the activity of the renin-angiotensin aldosterone system and activation of the coagulation cascade and of platelets. Medications that inhibit angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) are widely prescribed in the treatment and prevention of cardiovascular disease. ACE inhibitory peptides are of particular interest due to the presence of encrypted inhibitory peptide sequences. In particular, Ile-Pro-Pro and Val-Pro-Pro are fore runners in ACE inhibition, and have been incorporated into commercial products. Additionally, studies to identify additional novel peptides with similar bio-activity and the ability to withstand digestion during transit through the gastrointestinal tract are ongoing. The potential sources of such peptides in cheese and other dairy products are discussed. Challenges to the bio-availability of such peptides in the gastro intestinal tract are also reviewed. Activation of platelets and the coagulation cascade play a central role in the progression of cardiovascular disease. Platelets from such patients show spontaneous aggregation and an increased sensitivity to agonists which results in vascular damage and endothelial dysfunction associated with CVD. Peptide sequences exhibiting anti-thrombotic activity have been identified from fermented milk products. Studies on such peptides are reviewed and their effects on platelet function are discussed. Finally the ability of food derived peptides to decrease the formation of blood clots (thrombi) is reviewed. In conclusion, due to the widespread nature of cardiovascular disease, the identification of food derived compounds that exhibit a beneficial effect in such widespread areas of CVD regulation will have strong clinical potential. Due to the perception that food derived products have an acceptable risk profile they have the potential for widespread acceptance by the public. In this review, selected biological effects relating to CVD are discussed with a view to providing essential information to researchers.

Abstract
Polyphenols, such as rosmarinic acid, are widely distributed natural products with relevant antioxidant activity. Oxidative stress plays an important role in the pathogenesis of a number of disorders. Here, we report on the synthesis and biological effects of the polyphenolic esters hydroxytyrosyl gallate (1), hydroxytyrosyl protocatechuate (2) and hydroxytyrosyl caffeate (3), structurally related to rosmarinic acid. The three compounds showed a greater free radical scavenging activity than their precursors and also than rosmarinic acid. Esters 1 and 3 significantly reduced thrombin-evoked platelet aggregation, which is likely mediated to the attenuation of thrombin-stimulated Ca(2+) release and entry. The three compounds reduced the ability of platelets to accumulate Ca(2+) in the intracellular stores, probably by enhancing the Ca(2+) leakage rate and reduced store-operated Ca(2+) entry in these cells. These observations suggest that the structurally-simplified analogs to rosmarinic acid, compounds 1 and 3, might be the base of therapeutic strategies to prevent thrombotic complications associated to platelet hyperaggregability due to oxidative stress.

Abstract
Store-operated Ca(2+) entry (SOCE) is a major mechanism for Ca(2+) influx in platelets and other cells activated by a reduction in Ca(2+) concentration in the intracellular stores. SOCE has been reported to be regulated by extracellular Ca(2+), although the underlying mechanism remains unclear. Here we have examined the involvement of plasma membrane-located STIM1 (PM-STIM1) in the regulation of SOCE by extracellular Ca(2+). Treatment of platelets with the SERCA inhibitor thapsigargin (TG) induced Mn(2+) entry, which was inhibited by extracellular Ca(2+) in a concentration-dependent manner. Incubation of platelets with a specific antibody, which recognizes the extracellular amino acid sequence 25-139 of PM-STIM1 that contains the Ca(2+)-binding domain, prevented the inactivation of Ca(2+) entry induced by extracellular Ca(2+). TG induced translocation of STIM1 to the plasma membrane (PM), an event that was found to be Ca(2+)-dependent. In addition, TG stimulated association of PM-STIM1 with Orai1, an event that was not prevented by stabilization of the membrane cytoskeleton using jasplakinolide. These findings suggest that PM-STIM1 is important for the inactivation of SOCE by extracellular Ca(2+), an event that is likely to be mediated by interaction with Orai1.

Abstract
Melatonin exerts immunomodulatory actions that enhance the magnitude and quality of immune responses specific for certain antigens; this has raised the possibility of using melatonin to design novel vaccine adjuvant systems. The present study investigated the effect of subcutaneous slow-release melatonin implants and subcutaneous melatonin injections on the responsiveness of circulating platelets in sheep after vaccination against Dichelobacter nodosus (A1 and C serotypes), the bacterium that causes ovine footrot, a major cause of lameness in sheep. The experiments were carried out in sheep from a farm located in an area of Mediterranean-type ecosystem. Plasma melatonin levels were determined by radioimmunoassay, sheep platelet aggregation was monitored using an aggregometer and Ca2+ mobilization was determined by spectrofluorimetry using fura-2. Administration of melatonin either by implants or subcutaneous injections increased plasma melatonin concentrations, an effect that was found to be greater and more sustained when melatonin was administered via implants. Vaccination per se, as well as melatonin, increased the percentage and rate of platelet aggregation and reduced the lag-time in response to the physiological agonist thrombin, an effect that was found to be significantly greater when melatonin was administered to vaccinated animals. Melatonin enhanced thrombin-evoked Ca2+ release and entry and further increased Ca2+ mobilization observed in platelets from vaccinated sheep. These observations suggest that the use of melatonin, as a novel adjuvant, induces beneficial effects on platelet function and haemostasis, and opens new perspectives for therapeutic manipulation of immune responses to vaccination.

Abstract
Oleuropein and (+)-cycloolivil are natural polyphenolic compounds with a significant radical scavenging activity present in olive tree. We have investigated the antiaggregant effects of oleuropein and (+)-cycloolivil isolated from an ethyl acetate extract of olive tree wood. Oleuropein and (+)-cycloolivil reduced the ability of thrombin to stimulate platelet aggregation. Both compounds reduced thrombin-evoked Ca(2+) release and entry to a similar extent to hydroxytyrosol. This effect was greater in platelets from patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus than in controls. Thrombin-, thapsigargin- and 2,5-di-(tert-butyl)-1,4-hydroquinone (TBHQ)-evoked protein tyrosine phosphorylation, which is involved in Ca(2+) signalling and platelet aggregation, is inhibited by oleuropein and (+)-cycloolivil. oleuropein and (+)-cycloolivil are natural oxygen radical scavengers that reduce thrombin-induced protein tyrosine phosphorylation, Ca(2+) signalling and platelet aggregation. These observations suggest that oleuropein and (+)-cycloolivil may prevent thrombotic complications associated to platelet hyperaggregability and be the base for the development of antiaggregant therapeutic strategies.

Abstract
The hyperactivation of platelets is involved in the cardiovascular complications associated with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Altered platelet behavior contributes to the angiopathies associated with diabetes. A number of mechanisms involved in platelet activation are altered in diabetes. Platelets from type 2 diabetic patients show an enhanced endogenous reactive oxygen species production and a reduced antioxidant capability, which increase the activity of several tyrosine kinases, such as the Bruton's tyrosine kinase, MAP kinases or proteins of the SRC family. Oxidative stress is also involved in the abnormal intracellular calcium homeostasis observed in platelets from type 2 diabetics, including an enhanced resting cytosolic calcium concentration and calcium release and entry in response to agonists. Moreover, diabetes alters the bioavailability of nitric oxide in platelets. Basal nitric oxide synthase activity is reduced in homogenates of platelets obtained from patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. The study of these abnormalities might be helpful in the development of new pharmacological strategies to reduce platelet activation in type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Abstract
Cinnamtannin B-1 is a naturally occurring trimeric A-type proanthocyanidin, present in a limited number of plants, which exhibits a large number of cellular actions mostly derived from its antioxidant properties. Cinnamtannin B-1 modulates several biological processes such as changes in cytosolic free Ca(2+) concentration, endogenous reactive oxygen species generation, protein tyrosine phosphorylation and platelet aggregation. Proanthocyanidins, such as cinnamtannin B-1, have been reported to exert antitumoral activity mediated by a selective proapoptotic action in a number of tumoral cell lines associated with antiapoptotic activity in normal cells. The opposite effects of proanthocyanidins in normal and tumoral cells suggest that these compounds might be the base for therapeutic strategies directed selectively against tumoral cells. In addition, cinnamtannin B-1 shows antithrombotic actions through inhibition, in platelets, of endogenous ROS generation, Ca(2+) mobilization and, subsequently, aggregation. This has been reported to be especially relevant in platelets from diabetic patients, where cinnamtannin B-1 reverses both platelet hypersensitivity and hyperactivity. Considering the large number of cellular effects of cinnamtannin B-1 the development of therapeutic strategies for thrombotic disorders or certain types of cancer deserves further studies. This review summarizes the current knowledge on the actions and relevance of the signalling pathways modulated by cinnamtannin B-1.

Abstract
Phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2) is a versatile regulator of TRP channels. We report that inclusion of a PIP2 analogue, PIP2 1,2-dioctanoyl, does not induce non-capacitative Ca2+ entry per se but enhanced Ca2+ entry stimulated either by thrombin or by selective depletion of the Ca2+ stores in platelets, the dense tubular system, using 10 nM TG, and the acidic stores, using 20 microM 2,5-di-(tert-butyl)-1,4-hydroquinone (TBHQ). Reduction of PIP2 levels by blocking PIP2 resynthesis with Li+ or introducing a monoclonal anti-PIP2 antibody, or sequestering PIP2 using poly-lysine, attenuated Ca2+ entry induced by thrombin, TG and TBHQ, and reduced thrombin-evoked, but not TG- or TBHQ-induced, Ca2+ release from the stores. Incubation with the anti-hTRPC1 antibody did not alter the stimulation of Ca2+ entry by PIP2, whilst introduction of anti-hTRPC6 antibody directed towards the C-terminus of hTRPC6 reduced Ca2+ and Mn2+ entry induced by thrombin, TG or TBHQ, and abolished the stimulation of Ca2+ entry by PIP2. The anti-hTRPC6 antibody, but not the anti-hTRPC1 antibody or PIP2, reduced non-capacitative Ca2+ entry by the DAG analogue 1-oleoyl-2-acetyl-sn-glycerol. In summary, hTRPC6 plays a role both in store-operated and in non-capacitative Ca2+ entry. PIP2 enhances store-operated Ca2+ entry in human platelets, most probably by stimulation of hTRPC6 channels.
