Abstract
At the end of 2019, the novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) became prevalent worldwide, which brought a heavy medical burden and tremendous economic losses to the world population. In addition to the common clinical respiratory symptoms such as fever, cough and headache, patients with COVID-19 often have hematological diseases, especially platelet dysfunction. Platelet dysfunction usually leads to multiple organ dysfunction, which is closely related to patient severity or mortality. In addition, studies have confirmed significant changes in the gene expression profile of circulating platelets under SARS-CoV-2 infection, which will further lead to changes in platelet function. At the same time, studies have shown that platelets may absorb SARS-COV-2 mRNA independently of ACE2, which further emphasizes the importance of the stability of platelet function in defense against SARS-CoV-2 infection. This study reviewed the relationship between COVID-19 and platelet and SARS-CoV-2 damage to the circulatory system, and further analyzed the significantly differentially expressed mRNA in platelets after infection with SARS-CoV-2 on the basis of previous studies. The top eight hub genes were identified as NLRP3, MT-CO1, CD86, ICAM1, MT-CYB, CASP8, CXCL8 and CXCR4. Subsequently, the effects of SARS-CoV-2 infection on platelet transcript abnormalities and platelet dysfunction were further explored on the basis of 8 hub genes. Finally, the treatment measures of complications caused by platelet dysfunction in patients with COVID-19 were discussed in detail, so as to provide reference for the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of COVID-19.

Abstract
Platelets are crucial for thrombosis and hemostasis. Importantly, they contain mitochondria that are responsible for energy generation and therefore vital for platelet survival and activation. Activated platelets can release mitochondria that may be free or encapsulated in platelet extracellular vesicles (EVs). Extruded mitochondria are a well-known source of mitochondrial DNA, and mitochondrial antigens that can be targeted by autoantibodies forming immune complexes (IC). Interaction of IC with the platelet cell surface FcγRIIA receptor results in platelet activation and release of platelet granule components. In this review, we summarize how platelets and mitochondria may contribute to the pathogenesis of different autoimmune and musculoskeletal diseases. Targeting key drivers of mitochondrial extrusion may ultimately lead to urgently needed targeted pharmacological interventions for treating inflammation and thrombotic diathesis, and halting organ damage in some of these rheumatological conditions.

Abstract
Thrombosis is associated with various fatal arteriovenous syndromes including ischemic stroke, myocardial infarction, and pulmonary embolism. However, current clinical thrombolytic treatment strategies still have many problems in targeting and safety to meet the thrombolytic therapy needs. Understanding the molecular mechanism that underlies thrombosis is critical in developing effective thrombolytic strategies. It is well known that platelets play a central role in thrombosis and the binding of fibrinogen to activated platelets is a common pathway in the process of clot formation. Based on this, a concept of biomimetic thrombus-targeted thrombolytic strategy inspired from fibrinogen binding to activated platelets in thrombosis was proposed, which could selectively bind to activated platelets at a thrombus site, thus enabling targeted delivery and local release of thrombolytic agents for effective thrombolysis. In this review, we first summarized the main characteristics of platelets and fibrinogen, and then introduced the classical molecular mechanisms of thrombosis, including platelet adhesion, platelet activation and platelet aggregation through the interactions of activated platelets with fibrinogen. In addition, we highlighted the recent advances in biomimetic thrombus-targeted thrombolytic strategies which inspired from fibrinogen binding to activated platelets in thrombosis. The possible future directions and perspectives in this emerging area are briefly discussed.

Abstract
The study aimed to evaluate the antithrombotic action of Acrocomia aculeata pulp oil (AAPO) in natura, in an in vitro experimental model. AAPO was obtained by solvent extraction, and its chemical characterization was performed by gas chromatography coupled to a mass spectrometer (GC-MS). In vitro toxicity was evaluated with the Trypan Blue exclusion test and in vivo by the Galleria mellonella model. ADP/epinephrine-induced platelet aggregation after treatment with AAPO (50, 100, 200, 400, and 800 μg/mL) was evaluated by turbidimetry, and coagulation was determined by prothrombin activity time (PT) and activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT). Platelet activation was measured by expression of P-selectin on the platelet surface by flow cytometry and intraplatelet content of reactive oxygen species (ROS) by fluorimetry. The results showed that AAPO has as major components such as oleic acid, palmitic acid, lauric acid, caprylic acid, and squalene. AAPO showed no toxicity in vitro or in vivo. Platelet aggregation decreased against agonists using treatment with different concentrations of AAPO. Oil did not interfere in PT and aPTT. Moreover, it expressively decreased ROS-induced platelet activation and P-selectin expression. Therefore, AAPO showed antiplatelet action since it decreased platelet activation verified by the decrease in P-selectin expression as well as in ROS production.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Systemic immune-inflammatory index (SII) has been recognized as a novel inflammatory indicator in numerous diseases. It remains unknown how SII affects all-cause mortality among patients with osteoarthritis (OA). In this prospective cohort study, we intended to examine the relationship of SII with all-cause mortality among OA populations and assess the interaction between depression and SII. METHODS Data was collected from National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) in 2005-2018. The National Death Index (NDI) provided vital status records. Multivariable Cox regression analyses with cubic spines were applied to estimate the association between SII and all-cause and CVD mortality. Stratified analysis and interaction tests assessed the interaction of SII and depression on all-cause mortality. RESULTS In total 3174 OA adults were included. The lowest quartile Q1 (HR:1.44, 95%CI:1.02-2.04) and highest quartile Q4 (HR:1.44, 95%CI:1.02-2.04) of SII presented a higher risk of death compared with those in second quartile Q2 (Ref.) and third quartile Q3 (HR:1.23, 95%CI:0.89-1.68. Restricted cubic splines analysis revealed a U-shaped association of SII with all-cause mortality, the inflection points were 412.93 × 109/L. The interaction test observed a more significant relationship of SII with all-cause mortality in depression patients than in non-depression patients, indicating that depression can modify this association. LIMITATIONS First, the observational study design failed to make causal inferences. Second, the baseline SII cannot reflect the long-term level of inflammation. Finally, there may be potential bias. CONCLUSION SII was U-shaped associated with all-cause mortality in OA patients, and this association was significantly heightened by depression.

Abstract
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a predominant neuromotor disorder characterized by the selective death of dopaminergic neurons in the midbrain. The majority of PD cases are sporadic or idiopathic, with environmental toxins and pollutants potentially contributing to its development or exacerbation. However, clinical PD patients are often associated with a reduced stroke frequency, where circulating blood platelets are indispensable. Although platelet structural impairment is evident in PD, the platelet functional alterations and their underlying molecular mechanisms are still obscure. Therefore, we investigated rotenone (ROT), an environmental neurotoxin that selectively destroys dopaminergic neurons mimicking PD, on human blood platelets to explore its impact on platelet functions, thus replicating PD conditions in vitro. Our study deciphered that ROT decreased thrombin-induced platelet functions, including adhesion, activation, secretion, and aggregation in human blood platelets. As ROT is primarily responsible for generating intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS), and ROS is a key player regulating the platelet functional parameters, we went on to check the effect of ROT on platelet ROS production. In our investigation, it became evident that ROT treatment resulted in the stimulation of ROS production in human blood platelets. Additionally, we discovered that ROT induced ROS production by augmenting Ca2+ mobilization from inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor. Apart from this, the treatment of ROT triggers protein kinase C associated NADPH oxidase-mediated ROS production in platelets. In summary, this research, for the first time, highlights ROT-induced abnormal platelet functions and may provide a mechanistic insight into the altered platelet activities observed in PD patients.

Abstract
Platelets are well-known players in several cardiovascular diseases such as atherosclerosis and venous thrombosis. There is increasing evidence demonstrating that reactive oxygen species (ROS) are generated within activated platelets. Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate oxidase (NOX) is a major source of ROS generation in platelets. Ligand binding to platelet receptor glycoprotein (GP) VI stimulates intracellular ROS generation consisting of a spleen tyrosine kinase-independent production involving NOX activation and a following spleen tyrosine kinase-dependent generation. In addition to GPVI, stimulation of platelet thrombin receptors (protease-activated receptors [PARs]) can also trigger NOX-derived ROS production. Our recent study found that mitochondria-derived ROS production can be induced by engagement of thrombin receptors but not by GPVI, indicating that mitochondria are another source of PAR-dependent ROS generation apart from NOX. However, mitochondria are not involved in GPVI-dependent ROS generation. Once generated, the intracellular ROS are also involved in modulating platelet function and thrombus formation; therefore, the site-specific targeting of ROS production or clearance of excess ROS within platelets is a potential intervention and treatment option for thrombotic events. In this review, we will summarize the signaling pathways involving regulation of platelet ROS production and their role in platelet function and thrombosis, with a focus on GPVI- and PAR-dependent platelet responses.

Abstract
The inflammatory damage caused by thrombus formation and dissolution can increase the risk of thrombotic complications on top of cell death and organ dysfunction caused by thrombus itself. Therefore, a rapid and precise thrombolytic therapy strategy is in urgent need to effectively dissolve thrombus and resist oxidation simultaneously. In this study, Ce-UiO-66, a cerium-based metal-organic framework (Ce-MOF) with reactive oxygen species (ROS) scavenging properties, encapsulated by low-immunogenic mesenchymal stem cell membrane with inflammation-targeting properties, is used to construct a targeted nanomedicine Ce-UiO-CM. Ce-UiO-CM is applied in combination with external ultrasound stimulation for thrombolytic therapy in rat femoral artery. Ce-UiO-66 has abundant Ce (III)/Ce (IV) coupling sites that react with hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) to produce oxygen, exhibiting catalase (CAT) activity. The multi-cavity structure of Ce-UiO-66 can generate electron holes, and its pore channels can act as micro-reactors to further enhance its ROS scavenging capacity. Additionally, the porous structure of Ce-UiO-66 and the oxygen produced by its reaction with H2O2 may enhance the cavitation effects of ultrasound, thereby improving thrombolysis efficacy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Platelet storage lesion (PSL) adversely affects the quality of platelet concentrates (PCs). Platelets are prone to activation during storage. Moreover, elevated free mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) levels in PCs are associated with a higher risk of adverse transfusion reactions. Therefore, we aimed to evaluate the correlation between platelet activation markers and mtDNA release during PC storage. MATERIALS AND METHODS Six PCs prepared by the platelet-rich plasma method were assessed for free mtDNA copy number using quantitative real-time PCR and CD62P (P-selectin) expression by flow cytometry on days 0 (PC collection day), 3, 5 and 7 of storage. Lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) activity, pH, platelet count, mean platelet volume (MPV) and platelet distribution width (PDW) were measured as well. The correlation between free mtDNA and other PSL parameters, and the correlation between all parameters, was determined. RESULTS Significant increases in free mtDNA, MPV and PDW, and a significant decrease in platelet count and pH were observed. CD62P expression and LDH activity elevated significantly, particularly on storage days 5-7 and 0-3, respectively. Moreover, a moderate positive correlation (r = 0.61) was observed between free mtDNA and CD62P expression. The r values between free mtDNA and LDH, pH, platelet count, MPV and PDW were 0.81, -0.72, -0.49, 0.81 and 0.77, respectively. CONCLUSION The interplay between platelet activation and mtDNA release in promoting PSL in PCs may serve as a promising target for future research on applying additive solutions and evaluating the quality of PCs to improve transfusion and clinical outcomes.

[PMID: 38566213 PMCID: PMC10988797 DOI: 10.1186/s12951-024-02446-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/02/2023] [Accepted: 03/28/2024] [Indexed: 04/04/2024] Open
Abstract
Thrombotic diseases impose a significant global health burden, and conventional drug-based thrombolytic therapies are encumbered by the risk of bleeding complications. In this study, we introduce a novel drug-free nanomedicine founded on tea polyphenols nanoparticles (TPNs), which exhibits multifaceted capabilities for localized photothermal thrombolysis. TPNs were synthesized through a one-pot process under mild conditions, deriving from the monomeric epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG). Within this process, indocyanine green (ICG) was effectively encapsulated, exploiting multiple intermolecular interactions between EGCG and ICG. While both TPNs and ICG inherently possessed photothermal potential, their synergy significantly enhanced photothermal conversion and stability. Furthermore, the nanomedicine was functionalized with cRGD for targeted delivery to activated platelets within thrombus sites, eliciting robust thrombolysis upon laser irradiation across diverse thrombus types. Importantly, the nanomedicine's potent free radical scavenging abilities concurrently mitigated vascular inflammation, thus diminishing the risk of disease recurrence. In summary, this highly biocompatible multifunctional nanomaterial holds promise as a comprehensive approach that combines thrombolysis with anti-inflammatory actions, offering precision in thrombosis treatment.

Abstract
CD36 is a transmembrane glycoprotein, located on surface of numerous cell types. This review is aimed to explore regulatory role of CD36 in hematopoiesis beyond fatty acid uptake. CD36 acts as a pattern recognition receptor, regulates cellular fatty acid homeostasis, and negatively monitors angiogenesis. CD36 also mediates free fatty acid transportation to hematopoietic stem cells in response to infections. During normal physiology and pathophysiology, CD36 significantly participates in the activation and metabolic needs of platelets, macrophages, monocytes, T cells, B cells, and dendritic cells. CD36 has shown a unique relationship with Plasmodium falciparum-infected erythrocytes (PfIEs) as a beneficiary for both parasite and host. CD36 actively participates in pathogenesis of various hematological cancers as a significant prognostic biomarker including AML, HL, and NHL. CD36-targeting antibodies, CD36 antagonists (small molecules), and CD36 expression inhibitors/modulators are used to target CD36, depicting its therapeutic potential. Many preclinical studies or clinical trials were performed to assess CD36 as a therapeutic target; some are still under investigation. This review reflects the role of CD36 in hematopoiesis which requires more consideration in future research.

TAT-W61 peptide attenuates neuronal injury through blocking the binding of S100b to the V-domain of Rage during ischemic stroke. J Mol Med (Berl) 2024; 102:231-245. [PMID: 38051341 DOI: 10.1007/s00109-023-02402-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/20/2022] [Revised: 05/17/2023] [Accepted: 05/22/2023] [Indexed: 12/07/2023]
Abstract
Ischemic stroke is a devastative nervous system disease associated with high mortality and morbidity rates. Unfortunately, no clinically effective neuroprotective drugs are available now. In ischemic stroke, S100 calcium-binding protein b (S100b) binds to receptor for advanced glycation end products (Rage), leading to the neurological injury. Therefore, disruption of the interaction between S100B and Rage can rescue neuronal cells. Here, we designed a peptide, termed TAT-W61, derived from the V domain of Rage which can recognize S100b. Intriguingly, TAT-W61 can reduce the inflammatory caused by ischemic stroke through the direct binding to S100b. The further investigation demonstrated that TAT-W61 can improve pathological infarct volume and reduce the apoptotic rate. Particularly, TAT-W61 significantly improved the learning ability, memory, and motor dysfunction of the mouse in the ischemic stroke model. Our study provides a mechanistic insight into the abnormal expression of S100b and Rage in ischemic stroke and yields an invaluable candidate for the development of drugs in tackling ischemic stroke. KEY MESSAGES: S100b expression is higher in ischemic stroke, in association with a high expression of many genes, especially of Rage. S100b is directly bound to the V-domain of Rage. Blocking the binding of S100b to Rage improves the injury after ischemic stroke.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Celastrol is an active pentacyclic triterpenoid extracted from Tripterygium wilfordii and has anti-inflammatory and anti-tumor properties. Whether Celastrol modulates platelet function remains unknown. Our study investigated its role in platelet function and thrombosis. METHODS Human platelets were isolated and incubated with Celastrol (0, 1, 3 and 5 μM) at 37 °C for 1 h to measure platelet aggregation, granules release, spreading, thrombin-induced clot retraction and intracellular calcium mobilization. Additionally, Celastrol (2 mg/kg) was intraperitoneally administrated into mice to evaluate hemostasis and thrombosis in vivo. RESULTS Celastrol treatment significantly decreased platelet aggregation and secretion of dense or alpha granules induced by collagen-related peptide (CRP) or thrombin in a dose-dependent manner. Additionally, Celastrol-treated platelets showed a dramatically reduced spreading activity and decreased clot retraction. Moreover, Celastrol administration prolonged tail bleeding time and inhibited formation of arterial/venous thrombosis. Furthermore, Celastrol significantly reduced calcium mobilization. CONCLUSION Celastrol inhibits platelet function and venous/arterial thrombosis, implying that it might be utilized for treating thrombotic diseases.

Abstract
Astrocytic dysfunction is central to age-related neurodegenerative diseases. However, the mechanisms leading to astrocytic dysfunction are not well understood. We identify that among the diverse cellular constituents of the brain, murine and human astrocytes are enriched in the expression of CBS. Depleting CBS in astrocytes causes mitochondrial dysfunction, increases the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and decreases cellular bioenergetics that can be partially rescued by exogenous H2S supplementation or by re-expressing CBS. Conversely, the CBS/H2S axis, associated protein persulfidation and proliferation are decreased in astrocytes upon oxidative stress which can be rescued by exogenous H2S supplementation. Here we reveal that in the aging brain, the CBS/H2S axis is downregulated leading to decreased protein persulfidation, together augmenting oxidative stress. Our findings uncover an important protective role of the CBS/H2S axis in astrocytes that may be disrupted in the aged brain.

Abstract
In our previous study, target drug delivery and treatment of malignant tumors have been achieved by using platelets as carriers loading nano-chemotherapeutic agents (ND-DOX). However, drug release from ND-DOX-loaded platelets is dependent on negative platelet activation by tumor cells, whose activation is not significant enough for the resulting drug release to take an effective anti-tumor effect. Exploring strategies to proactively manipulate the controlled release of drug-laden platelets is imperative. The present study innovatively revealed that photodynamic action can activate platelets in a spatiotemporally controlled manner. Consequently, based on the previous study, platelets were used to load iron oxide-polyglycerol-doxorubicin-chlorin e6 composites (IO-PG-DOX-Ce6), wherein the laser-triggered drug release ability and anti-tumor capability were demonstrated. The findings suggested that IO-PG-DOX-Ce6 could be stably loaded by platelets in high volume without any decrease in viability. Importantly and interestingly, drug-loaded platelets were significantly activated by laser irradiation, characterized by intracellular ROS accumulation and up-regulation of CD62p. Additionally, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and hydrated particle size results also showed a significant aggregation response of laser irradiated-drug-loaded platelets. Further transmission electron microscopy (TEM) measurements indicated that the activated platelets released extracellularly their cargo drug after laser exposure, which could be taken up by co-cultured tumor cells. Finally, the co-culture model of drug-loaded platelets and tumor cells proved that laser-triggered delivery system of platelets could effectively damage the DNA and promote apoptosis of tumor cells. Overall, the present study discovers a drug-loaded platelets delivery using photodynamic effect, enabling laser-controlled intelligent drug delivery and anti-tumor therapy, which provides a novel and feasible approach for clinical application of cytopharmaceuticals.

Abstract
Current antithrombotic therapies used in clinical settings target either the coagulation pathways or platelet activation receptors (P2Y12 or GPIIb/IIIa), as well as the cyclooxygenase (COX) enzyme through aspirin. However, they are associated with bleeding risk and are not suitable for long-term use. Thus, novel strategies which provide broad protection against platelet activation with minimal bleeding risks are required. Regardless of the nature of agonist stimulation, platelet activation is an energy-intensive and ATP-driven process characterized by metabolic switching toward a high rate of aerobic glycolysis, relative to oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS). Consequently, there has been considerable interest in recent years in investigating whether targeting metabolic pathways in platelets, especially aerobic glycolysis and OXPHOS, can modulate their activation, thereby preventing thrombosis. This review briefly discusses the choices of metabolic substrates available to platelets that drive their metabolic flexibility. We have comprehensively elucidated the relevance of aerobic glycolysis in facilitating platelet activation and the underlying molecular mechanisms that trigger this switch from OXPHOS. We have provided a detailed account of the antiplatelet effects of targeting vital metabolic checkpoints such as pyruvate dehydrogenase kinases (PDKs) and pyruvate kinase M2 (PKM2) that preferentially drive the pyruvate flux to aerobic glycolysis. Furthermore, we discuss the role of fatty acids and glutamine oxidation in mitochondria and their subsequent role in driving OXPHOS and platelet activation. While the approach of targeting metabolic regulatory mechanisms in platelets to prevent their activation is still in a nascent stage, accumulating evidence highlights its beneficial effects as a potentially novel antithrombotic strategy.

Methods: Washed human platelets were used for aggregation, membrane protein expression, ATP, Ca2+, and LDH release, platelet adhesion/spreading, and clot retraction experiments. Washed human platelets were used to detect collagen and convulxin-induced reactive oxygen species production and endogenous antioxidant effects. C57BL/6 male mice were used for ferric chloride-induced mesenteric thrombosis, collagen-epinephrine induced acute pulmonary embolism, tail bleeding, coagulation function, and luteolin toxicity experiments. The interaction between luteolin and GPVI was analyzed using solid phase binding assay and surface plasmon resonance (SPR). Results: Luteolin inhibited collagen- and convulxin-mediated platelet aggregation, adhesion, and release. Luteolin inhibited collagen- and convulxin-induced platelet ROS production and increased platelet endogenous antioxidant capacity. Luteolin reduced convulxin-induced activation of ITAM and MAPK signaling molecules. Molecular docking simulation showed that luteolin forms hydrogen bonds with GPVI. The solid phase binding assay showed that luteolin inhibited the interaction between collagen and GPVI. Surface plasmon resonance showed that luteolin bonded GPVI. Luteolin inhibited integrin αIIbβ3-mediated platelet activation. Luteolin inhibited mesenteric artery thrombosis and collagen- adrenergic-induced pulmonary thrombosis in mice. Luteolin decreased oxidative stress in vivo. Luteolin did not affect coagulation, hemostasis, or platelet production in mice. Discussion: Luteolin may be an effective and safe antiplatelet agent target for GPVI. A new mechanism (decreased oxidative stress) for the anti-platelet activity of luteolin has been identified.

[PMID: 37833648 PMCID: PMC10571315 DOI: 10.1186/s12885-023-11060-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/13/2022] [Accepted: 06/12/2023] [Indexed: 10/15/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Current treatment of acute leukemia is based on anthracycline chemotherapy. Anthracyclines, despite improving patient survival, have serious cardiotoxicity and therefore cardiac monitoring should be a priority. The purpose of this study is to explore the possible early predictors of anthracycline-induced subclinical cardiotoxicity(AISC)in acute leukemia patients. METHODS We conducted a prospective observational study involving 51 patients with acute leukemia treated with anthracycline. Demographic data, clinical variables, echocardiography variables and biochemical variables were collected at baseline and after 3 cycles of chemotherapy. Patients were divided into the AISC and No-AISC groups according to changes of global longitudinal peak systolic strain. Regression models and receiver operating characteristic curve analysis were used to explore the relationship between the variables and AISC. RESULT 17 of the patients suffered subclinical cardiotoxicity after 3 cycles of anthracycline treatment. Multiple logistic regression analysis showed a significant association of DBil (OR 0.612, 95% CI 0.409-0.916, p = 0.017), TBil (OR 0.841, 95% CI 0.717-0.986, p = 0.033), PLT (OR 1.012, 95% CI 1.002-1.021, p = 0.016) and Glu (OR 1.873, 95% CI 1.009-3.475, p = 0.047) with the development of AISC. After 3 cycles of chemotherapy, there was a significant difference in PLT between the AISC and NO-AISC groups. Moreover, the dynamic changes in PLT from baseline to after 3 cycles of chemotherapy were each statistically significant in the AISC and NO-AISC groups. The combination of PLT and N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) had the highest area under curves (AUC) for the diagnosis of AISC than PLT and NT-proBNP alone (AUC = 0.713, 95%CI: 0.56-0.87, P = 0.017). CONCLUSION Total bilirubin (TBil), direct bilirubin (DBil), platelets (PLT) and blood glucose (Glu) are independent influencing factors for AISC in acute leukemia patients receiving anthracycline therapy. Bilirubin may be a protective factor and PLT may be a contributing factor for AISC. The combination of baseline PLT and baseline NT-proBNP shows satisfactory predictive ability for AISC in acute leukemia cases treated with 3 cycles of chemotherapy.

Abstract
Abnormal lipid profile, increased glucose level, and elevated body weight are traditional cardiometabolic risk factors; however, the role of platelets in the development of cardiovascular disease (CVD) is increasingly being highlighted. The aim of this study was to select platelet-related parameters (non-genetic molecular and routine laboratory measurements) that may be associated with increased cardiovascular risk among healthy populations. We evaluated the level of platelet indices, platelet-based inflammatory markers, platelet reactivity parameters, and platelet reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation in relation to selected cardiometabolic risk factors. We noted the association between total cholesterol and LDL cholesterol with platelet aggregation and platelet ROS generation. We found the relationship between triglycerides, glucose, and body mass index with the relatively new multi-inflammatory indices (MII-1 and MII-3). Moreover, we noticed that the mean platelet volume-to-lymphocyte ratio in healthy subjects is not a good source of information about platelets and inflammation. We also highlighted that platelet-to-HDL-cholesterol ratio may be a promising prognostic cardiometabolic indicator. The association between platelet-related (especially molecular) and cardiometabolic parameters requires further research. However, the goal of this study was to shed light on the consideration of platelets as a non-traditional cardiovascular risk factor and a crucial element in identifying individuals at high-risk of developing CVD in the future.

Abstract
Platelet adhesion and activation is fundamental to the formation of a hemostatic response to limit loss of blood and instigate wound repair to seal a site of vascular injury. The process of platelet aggregate formation is supported by the coagulation system driving injury-proximal formation of thrombin, which converts fibrinogen to insoluble fibrin. This highly coordinated series of molecular and membranous events must be routinely achieved in flowing blood, at vascular fluid shear rates that place significant strain on molecular and cellular interactions. Platelets have long been recognized to be able to slow down and adhere to sites of vascular injury and then activate and recruit more platelets that forge and strengthen adhesive ties with the vascular wall under these conditions. It has been a major challenge for the Platelet Research Community to construct experimental conditions that allow precise definition of the molecular steps occurring under flow. This brief review will discuss work to date from our group, as well as others that has furthered our understanding of platelet function in flowing blood.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Platelet mitochondrial dysfunction is both caused by, as well as a source of oxidative stress. Oxidative stress is a key hallmark of metabolic disorders such as dyslipidemia and diabetes, which are known to have higher risks for thrombotic complications. RECENT FINDINGS Increasing evidence supports a critical role for platelet mitochondria beyond energy production and apoptosis. Mitochondria are key regulators of reactive oxygen species and procoagulant platelets, which both contribute to pathological thrombosis. Studies targeting platelet mitochondrial pathways have reported promising results suggesting antithrombotic effects with limited impact on hemostasis in animal models. SUMMARY Targeting platelet mitochondria holds promise for the reduction of thrombotic complications in patients with metabolic disorders. Future studies should aim at validating these preclinical findings and translate them to the clinic.

Abstract
Severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome (SFTS) is an emerging tick-borne infectious disease caused by the SFTS virus (SFTSV) and with a high fatality rate. Thrombocytopenia is a major clinical manifestation observed in SFTS patients, but the underlying mechanism remains largely unclear. Here, we explored the effects of SFTSV infection on platelet function in vivo in severely infected SFTSV IFNar-/- mice and on mouse and human platelet function in vitro. Results showed that SFTSV-induced platelet clearance acceleration may be the main reason for thrombocytopenia. SFTSV-potentiated platelet activation and apoptosis were also observed in infected mice. Further investigation showed that SFTSV infection induced platelet reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and mitochondrial dysfunction. In vitro experiments revealed that administration of SFTSV or SFTSV glycoprotein (Gn) increased activation, apoptosis, ROS production, and mitochondrial dysfunction in separated mouse platelets, which could be effectively ameliorated by the application of antioxidants (NAC (N-acetyl-l-cysteine), SKQ1 (10-(6'-plastoquinonyl) decyltriphenylphosphonium) and resveratrol). In vivo experiments showed that the antioxidants partially rescued SFTSV infection-induced thrombocytopenia by improving excessive ROS production and mitochondrial dysfunction and down-regulating platelet apoptosis and activation. Furthermore, while SFTSV and Gn directly potentiated human platelet activation, it was completely abolished by antioxidants. This study revealed that SFTSV and Gn can directly trigger platelet activation and apoptosis in an ROS-MAPK-dependent manner, which may contribute to thrombocytopenia and hemorrhage during infection, but can be abolished by antioxidants.

Abstract
In the present study, we tested the effect of small-molecular-weight redox molecules on collagen-induced platelet aggregation. We used N-acetylcysteine amide (AD4/NACA), the amide form of N-acetylcysteine (NAC), a thiol antioxidant with improved lipophilicity and bioavailability compared to NAC, and the thioredoxin-mimetic (TXM) peptides, TXM-CB3, TXM-CB13, and TXM-CB30. All compounds significantly inhibited platelet aggregation induced by collagen, with TXM-peptides and AD4 being more effective than NAC. The levels of TxB2 and 12-HETE, the main metabolites derived from the cyclooxygenase and lipoxygenase pathways following platelet activation, were significantly reduced in the presence of AD4, TXM peptides, or NAC, when tested at the highest concentration (0.6 mM). The effects of AD4, TXM-peptides, and NAC were also tested on the clotting time (CT) of whole blood. TXM-CB3 and TXM-CB30 showed the greatest increase in CT. Furthermore, two representative compounds, TXM-CB3 and NAC, showed an increase in the anti-oxidant free sulfhydryl groups of plasma detected via Ellman's method, suggesting a contribution of plasma factors to the antiaggregating effects. Our results suggest that these small-molecular-weight redox peptides might become useful for the prevention and/or treatment of oxidative stress conditions associated with platelet activation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Dimethyl fumarate (DMF) is a methyl ester of fumaric acid and has been approved for treating multiple sclerosis (MS) and psoriasis due to anti-inflammatory effect. There is a close association between platelets and the pathogenesis of MS. Whether DMF affects platelet function remains unclear. Our study intends to evaluate DMF's effect on platelet function. METHODS Washed human platelets were treated with different concentrations of DMF (0, 50, 100 and 200 μM) at 37 °C for 1 h followed by analysis of platelet aggregation, granules release, receptors expression, spreading and clot retraction. In addition, mice received intraperitoneal injection of DMF (15 mg/kg) to assess tail bleeding time, arterial and venous thrombosis. RESULTS DMF significantly inhibited platelet aggregation and the release of dense/alpha granules in response to collagen-related peptide (CRP) or thrombin stimulation dose-dependently without altering the expression of platelet receptors αIIbβ3, GPIbα, and GPVI. In addition, DMF-treated platelets presented significantly reduced spreading on collagen or fibrinogen and thrombin-mediated clot retraction along with the decreased phosphorylation of c-Src and PLCγ2. Moreover, administration of DMF into mice significantly prolonged the tail bleeding time and impaired arterial and venous thrombus formation. Furthermore, DMF reduced the generation of intracellular reactive oxygen species and calcium mobilization, and inhibited NF-κB activation and the phosphorylation of ERK1/2, p38 and AKT. CONCLUSION DMF inhibits platelet function and arterial/venous thrombus formation. Considering the presence of thrombotic events in MS, our study indicates that DMF treatment for patients with MS might obtain both anti-inflammatory and anti-thrombotic benefits.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Parkinson's disease (PD) is a progressive neuronal illness often linked to increased cardiovascular complications, such as myocardial infarction, cardiomyopathy, congestive heart failure, and coronary heart disease. Platelets, which are the essential components of circulating blood, are considered potential players in regulating these complications, as platelet dysfunction is evident in PD. These tiny blood cell fragments are supposed to play a crucial role in these complications, but the underlying molecular processes are still obscure. METHODS To gain a better understanding of platelet dysfunction in PD, we investigated the impact of 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA), an analog of dopamine that simulates PD by destroying dopaminergic neurons, on human blood platelets. The levels of intraplatelet reactive oxygen species (ROS) were assessed using H2DCF-DA (20 μM), while mitochondrial ROS was evaluated using MitoSOX™ Red (5 μM), and intracellular Ca2+ was measured with Fluo-4-AM (5 μM). The data were acquired through the use of both a multimode plate reader and a laser-scanning confocal microscope. RESULTS Our findings showed that 6-OHDA treatment increased the production of ROS in human blood platelets. The increase in ROS was confirmed by the ROS scavenger, NAC, and was also reduced by inhibiting the NOX enzyme with apocynin. Additionally, 6-OHDA potentiated mitochondrial ROS production in platelets. Furthermore, 6-OHDA triggered the intraplatelet Ca2+ elevation. This effect was mitigated by the Ca2+ chelator BAPTA, which decreased the ROS production triggered by 6-OHDA in human blood platelets, while the IP3 receptor blocker, 2-APB, reduced the formation of ROS induced by 6-OHDA. CONCLUSION Our findings suggest that the 6-OHDA-induced ROS production is regulated by the IP3 receptor-Ca2+-NOX signaling axis in human blood platelets, where the platelet mitochondria also play a significant role. This observation provides a crucial mechanistic understanding of the altered platelet activities that are commonly observed in PD patients.

Abstract
Oxidative stress participates at the baseline of different non-communicable pathologies such as cardiovascular diseases. Excessive formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), above the signaling levels necessary for the correct function of organelles and cells, may contribute to the non-desired effects of oxidative stress. Platelets play a relevant role in arterial thrombosis, by aggregation triggered by different agonists, where excessive ROS formation induces mitochondrial dysfunction and stimulate platelet activation and aggregation. Platelet is both a source and a target of ROS, thus we aim to analyze both the platelet enzymes responsible for ROS generation and their involvement in intracellular signal transduction pathways. Among the proteins involved in these processes are Protein Disulphide Isomerase (PDI) and NADPH oxidase (NOX) isoforms. By using bioinformatic tools and information from available databases, a complete bioinformatic analysis of the role and interactions of PDI and NOX in platelets, as well as the signal transduction pathways involved in their effects was performed. We focused the study on analyzing whether these proteins collaborate to control platelet function. The data presented in the current manuscript support the role that PDI and NOX play on activation pathways necessary for platelet activation and aggregation, as well as on the platelet signaling imbalance produced by ROS production. Our data could be used to design specific enzyme inhibitors or a dual inhibition for these enzymes with an antiplatelet effect to design promising treatments for diseases involving platelet dysfunction.

Adaptive changes in redox response and decreased platelet aggregation in lead-exposed workers. ENVIRONMENTAL TOXICOLOGY AND PHARMACOLOGY 2023; 100:104134. [PMID: 37116628 DOI: 10.1016/j.etap.2023.104134] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/17/2022] [Revised: 03/11/2023] [Accepted: 04/24/2023] [Indexed: 05/06/2023]
Abstract
Chronic lead exposure can generate pro-oxidative and pro-inflammatory conditions in the blood, related to high platelet activation and aggregation, altering cell functions. We studied ADP-stimulated aggregation and the oxidant/antioxidant system of platelets from chronically lead-exposed workers and non-exposed workers. Platelet aggregation was low in lead-exposed workers (62 vs. 97%), who had normal platelet counts and showed no clinical manifestations of hemostatic failure. ADP-activated platelets from lead-exposed workers failed to increase superoxide release (3.3 vs. 6.6 µmol/g protein), had low NADPH concentration (60 vs. 92 nmol/mg protein), high concentration of hydrogen peroxide (224 vs. 129 nmol/mg protein) and high plasma PGE2 concentration (287 vs. 79 pg/mL). Altogether, those conditions, on the one hand, could account for the low platelet aggregation and, on the other, indicate an adaptive mechanism for the oxidative status of platelets and anti-aggregating molecules to prevent thrombotic problems in the pro-oxidant and pro-inflammatory environment of chronic lead exposure.

Low Grade Endotoxemia and Oxidative Stress in Offspring of Patients with Early Myocardial Infarction. Antioxidants (Basel) 2023; 12:antiox12040958. [PMID: 37107333 PMCID: PMC10135978 DOI: 10.3390/antiox12040958] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/05/2023] [Revised: 04/14/2023] [Accepted: 04/18/2023] [Indexed: 04/29/2023] Open
Abstract
Background and aims: Offspring of patients with early myocardial infarction are at higher cardiovascular risk, but the underlying physio-pathological mechanism is unclear. NADPH oxidase-type 2 (NOX-2) plays a pivotal role as mediator of oxidative stress and could be involved in activating platelets in these patients. Furthermore, altered intestinal permeability and serum lipopolysaccharide (LPS) could be a trigger to promote NOX-2 activation and platelet aggregation. This study aims to evaluate the behavior of low grade endotoxemia, oxidative stress and platelet activation in offspring of patients with early myocardial infarction. Methods: We enrolled, in a cross-sectional study, 46 offspring of patients with early myocardial infarction and 86 healthy subjects (HS). LPS levels and gut permeability (assessed by zonulin), oxidative stress (assessed by serum NOX-2-derived peptide (sNOX2-dp) release, hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) production and isoprostanes), serum nitric oxide (NO) bioavailability and platelet activation (by serum thromboxane B2 (TXB2) and soluble P-Selectin (sP-Selectin)) were analyzed. Results: Compared to HS, offspring of patients with early myocardial infarction had higher values of LPS, zonulin, serum isoprostanes, sNOX2-dp H2O2, TXB2, p-selectin and lower NO bioavailability. Logistic regression analysis showed that the variables associated with offspring of patients with early myocardial infarction were LPS, TXB2 and isoprostanes. The multiple linear regression analysis confirmed that serum NOX-2, isoprostanes, p-selectin and H2O2 levels were significantly associated to LPS. Furthermore, serum LPS, isoprostanes and TXB2 levels were significantly associated with sNOX-2-dp. Conclusions: Offspring of patients with early myocardial infarction have a low grade endotoxemia that could generate oxidative stress and platelet activation increasing their cardiovascular risk. Future studies are needed to understand the role of dysbiosis in this population.

Abstract
Oxidative stress (OS) is a chemical imbalance between an oxidant and an antioxidant, causing damage to redox signaling and control or causing molecular damage. Unbalanced oxidative metabolism can produce excessive reactive oxygen species (ROS). These excess ROS can cause drastic changes in platelet metabolism and further affect platelet function. It will also lead to an increase in platelet procoagulant phenotype and cell apoptosis, which will increase the risk of thrombosis. The creation of ROS and subsequent platelet activation, adhesion, and recruitment are then further encouraged in an auto-amplifying loop by ROS produced from platelets. Meanwhile, cancer cells produce a higher concentration of ROS due to their fast metabolism and high proliferation rate. However, excessive ROS can result in damage to and modification of cellular macromolecules. The formation of cancer and its progression is strongly associated with oxidative stress and the resulting oxidative damage. In addition, platelets are an important part of the tumor microenvironment, and there is a significant cross-communication between platelets and cancer cells. Cancer cells alter the activation status of platelets, their RNA spectrum, proteome, and other properties. The "cloaking" of cancer cells by platelets providing physical protection,avoiding destruction from shear stress and the attack of immune cells, promoting tumor cell invasion.We explored the vicious circle interaction between ROS, platelets, and cancer in this review, and we believe that ROS can play a stimulative role in tumor growth and metastasis through platelets.

Abstract
Background Abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs) are a relatively common vascular pathology of the elderly with high morbidity potential. Irreversible degeneration of the aortic wall leads to lethal rupture if left untreated. Nearly all AAAs contain intraluminal thrombus (ILT) to a varying degree, yet the mechanisms explaining how thrombosis is disturbed in AAA are relatively unknown. This review examined the thrombotic complications associated with AAA, the impact of thrombosis on AAA surgical outcomes and AAA pathogenesis, and the use of antithrombotic therapy in the management of this disease. Methods A literature search of the PubMed database was conducted using relevant keywords related to thrombosis and AAAs. Results Thrombotic complications are relatively infrequent in AAA yet carry significant morbidity risks. The ILT can impact endovascular aneurysm repair by limiting anatomic suitability and influence the risk of endoleaks. Many of the pathologic mechanisms involved in AAA development, including hemodynamics, inflammation, oxidative stress, and aortic wall remodeling, contain pathways that interact with thrombosis. Conversely, the ILT can also be a source of biochemical stress and exacerbate these aneurysmal processes. In animal AAA models, antithrombotic therapies have shown favorable results in preventing and stabilizing AAA. Antiplatelet agents may be beneficial for reducing risks of major adverse cardiovascular events in AAA patients; however, neither antiplatelet nor anticoagulation is currently used solely for the management of AAA. Conclusions Thrombosis and ILT may have detrimental effects on AAA growth, rupture risk, and patient outcomes, yet there is limited understanding of the pathologic thrombotic mechanisms in aneurysmal disease at the molecular level. Preventing ILT using platelet and coagulation inhibitors may be a reasonable theoretical target for aneurysm progression and stability; however, the practical benefits of current antithrombotic therapies in AAA are unclear. Further research is needed to demonstrate the extent to which thrombosis impacts AAA pathogenesis and to develop novel pharmacologic strategies for the medical management of this disease.

Abstract
Platelet mitochondrial dysfunction is crucial for platelet activation, atherosclerosis and thrombosis. Sulforaphane (SFN) is a dietary isothiocyanate enriched in cruciferous vegetables and possesses multiple health benefits including cardiovascular protection. This study aims to investigate whether and how SFN modulates platelet mitochondrial dysfunction and hyperactivity in vitro and in vivo. Using a series of platelet functional assays in human platelets in vitro, we found that SFN at physiological concentrations attenuated oxidative stress-dependent platelet mitochondrial dysfunction (loss of mitochondrial membrane potential), apoptosis (cytochrome c release, caspase 3 activation and phosphatidylserine exposure) and activation induced by glycoprotein VI (GPVI) agonists (e.g., collagen and convulxin). Moreover, 12-week supplementation of SFN-enriched broccoli sprout extract (BSE, 0.06% diet) in C57BL/6J mice also attenuated GPVI-induced platelet mitochondrial dysfunction, apoptosis and hyperreactivity in vivo. Mechanistically, these inhibitory effects of SFN treatment and BSE supplementation were mainly mediated by up-regulating the cAMP/PKA pathway though decreasing phosphodiesterase 3A (PDE3A) activity. Thus, through modulating the PDE3A/cAMP/PKA signaling pathway, and attenuating platelet mitochondrial dysfunction and hyperreactivity, SFN may be a potent cardioprotective agent.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION RSUME (RWD domain-containing protein SUMO Enhancer), RWD domain containing 3 (RWDD3) gene product, is upregulated by hypoxia and expressed in organs prone to develop von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) syndrome tumors. MATERIALS AND METHODS We evaluated RSUME prognostic value in clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) based mainly on the dataset (KIRC) from patients in The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA). Wilcoxon signed-rank test and one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) followed by Tukey's test were used to evaluate relationships between clinicopathological features and RSUME expression and univariate and multivariate Cox regression analysis methods were used to evaluate prognostic factors. The biological function of RSUME was assessed by gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA). For validation, total amount of ROS was detected in ccRCC cell lines using dichlorofluorescin diacetate. RESULTS RSUME is highly expressed in tumor tissues compared with normal tissues (P = .006, P = .039, P = .002, P = .036, P < .001) and associates with tumor T (P = .018) and tumor M (P = .036) advanced stages and higher extent cysts (P = .005). RSUME expression appears to be an independent risk factor for overall survival (OS) (P = .002) and disease-specific survival (DSS) (P = .026) in ccRCC patients. GSEA showed enrichment of relevant glycerophospholipid- and ROS-related pathways in RSUME high-expression phenotype. ROS diminished levels in RSUME-silenced ccRCC cell lines validated RSUME relevance in ROS-related pathways. CONCLUSION RSUME high expression may predict poor prognosis in ccRCC and impact through its action on metabolism and ROS related pathways.

Abstract
A thrombus is a blood clot that forms in the lumen of an artery or vein, restricting blood flow and causing clinical symptoms. Thrombosis is associated with many life-threatening cardiovascular diseases. However, current clinical therapeutic technologies still have many problems in targeting, enrichment, penetration, and safety to meet the thrombosis treatment needs. Therefore, researchers devote themselves to developing nanosystems loaded with antithrombotic drugs to address this paradox in recent years. Herein, the existing thrombosis treatment technologies are first reviewed; and then, their advantages and disadvantages are outlined based on a brief discussion of thrombosis's definition and formation mechanism. Furthermore, the need and application cases for introducing nanotechnology are discussed, focusing on thrombus-specific targeted ligand modification technology and microenvironment-triggered responsive drug release technology. Then, nanomaterials that can be used to design antithrombotic nanotherapeutic systems are summarized. Moreover, a variety of drug delivery technologies driven by nanomotors in thrombosis therapy is also introduced. Last of all, a prospective discussion on the future development of nanotechnology for thrombosis therapy is highlighted.

Abstract
Evidences suggest that inflammation is increased in a subgroup of patients with depression. Moreover, increased peripheral inflammatory markers (cells and proteins) are associated with some, but not all depressive symptoms. On the other hand, similar studies on bipolar disorders mainly focused on blood cytokines. Here, we analysed data from a large (N = 3440), well-characterized cohort of individuals with bipolar disorder using Kendall partial rank correlation, multivariate linear regression, and network analyses to determine whether peripheral blood cell counts are associated with depression severity, its symptoms, and dimensions. Based on the self-reported 16-Item Quick Inventory of Depressive Symptomatology questionnaire scores, we preselected symptom dimensions based on literature and data-driven principal component analysis. We found that the counts of all blood cell types were only marginally associated with depression severity. Conversely, white blood cell count was significantly associated with the sickness dimension and its four components (anhedonia, slowing down, fatigue, and appetite loss). Platelet count was associated with the insomnia/restlessness dimension and its components (initial, middle, late insomnia and restlessness). Principal component analyses corroborated these results. Platelet count was also associated with suicidal ideation. In analyses stratified by sex, the white blood cell count-sickness dimension association remained significant only in men, and the platelet count-insomnia/restlessness dimension association only in women. Without implying causation, these results suggest that peripheral blood cell counts might be associated with different depressive symptoms in individuals with bipolar disorder, and that white blood cells might be implicated in sickness symptoms and platelets in insomnia/agitation and suicidal ideation.

Abstract
Adiponectin, an adipokine secreted by adipocytes, has anti-atherosclerotic and antithrombotic activities. AdipoRon is synthetic small molecule adiponectin receptor agonist. In this study, we investigated the effect of AdipoRon on platelet activation and thrombus formation. Washed human platelets were prepared from the peripheral blood of healthy donors. In a series of in vitro platelet functional assays, pre-treatment with AdipoRon (10, 20, 40 µg/mL) dose-dependently inhibited the aggregation, granule secretion and spreading of washed human platelets. We showed that AdipoRon (20, 40 µg/mL) significantly inhibited AMPK, Syk, PLCγ2, PI3K, Akt, p38-MAPK and ERK1/2 signalling pathways in washed human platelets. In addition, we demonstrated that the phosphorylation of CKII at Tyr255 was an important mechanism of the integrin αIIbβ3-mediated platelet activation. Meanwhile, AdipoR1 deficiency impaired the inhibitory effect of AdipoRon on mouse platelets. In ferric chloride-induced carotid injury model, injection of AdipoRon (5 or 12.5 mg/kg, iv) significantly attenuated arterial thrombosis. In conclusion, AdipoRon attenuates platelet function via the AdipoR1/AMPK/CKII/PI3K/AKT signalling pathways, while exerting a protective effect against arterial thrombosis. This study offers new insights into the fields of cardiovascular disease and antiplatelet drug discovery.Schematic model of AdipoRon regulating platelet activation. (BioRender.com).

Antioxidant and Antithrombotic Activities of Kenaf Seed (Hibiscus cannabinus) Coat Ethanol Extract in Sprague Dawley Rats. Appl Biochem Biotechnol 2023; 195:772-800. [PMID: 36173546 DOI: 10.1007/s12010-022-04144-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Accepted: 08/28/2022] [Indexed: 01/24/2023]
Abstract
Oxidative stress has been implicated in deadly lifestyle diseases, and antioxidants from plant sources are the primary option in the treatment regime. Kenaf seeds are the storehouse of potential natural antioxidant phytoconstituents. Perhaps, none of the studies documented the phytoconstituents and their antioxidant potential from Kenaf seed coat so far. Thus, the current study focuses on exploring the protective effect of Kenaf Seed Coat Ethanol Extract (KSCEE) against sodium nitrite and diclofenac-induced oxidative stress in vitro (red blood cell and platelets model) and in vivo (female Sprague Dawely rat's model) along with the antithrombotic activity. The infrared spectrophotometry data showed the heterogeneous functional groups (CH, OH, C = C, C = C-C) and aromatic rings. Reverse phase high-performance liquid chromatography and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry chromatogram of KSCEE also evidenced the presence of several phytochemicals. KSCEE displayed about 76% of DPPH scavenging activity with an IC50 value of 34.94 µg/ml. KSCEE significantly (***p < 0.001) normalized the stress markers such as lipid peroxidation, protein carbonyl content, superoxide dismutase, and catalase in sodium nitrite and diclofenac-induced oxidative stress in RBC, platelets, liver, kidney, and small intestine, respectively. Furthermore, KSCEE was found to protect the diclofenac-induced tissue destruction of the liver, kidney, and small intestine obtained from seven groups of female Sprague Dawely rats. KSCEE delayed the clotting time of platelet-rich plasma and platelet-poor plasma and activated partial thromboplastin time, suggesting its anticoagulant property. In addition, KSCEE also exhibited antiplatelet activity by inhibiting both adenosine diphosphate and epinephrine-induced platelet aggregation. In conclusion, KSCEE ameliorates the sodium nitrite and diclofenac-induced oxidative stress in red blood cells, platelets, and experimental animals along with antithrombotic properties.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are highly reactive chemical molecules containing oxygen. ROS play an important role in signaling and cell homeostasis at low and moderate concentrations. ROS could be a cause of damage to proteins, nucleic acids, lipids, membranes and organelles at high concentrations. There are a lot of cells that can produce ROS to maintain functional activity. It is known that metal nanoparticles can increase production of ROS in cells. However, the effect of cucurbiturils on ROS production is still unknown. In our study, we evaluated production of ROS by the immune (T-, B-lymphocytes, NK-cells) and non-immune cells (red blood cells, platelets), as well as tumor cells line (1301, K562) after treatment with cucurbiturils in vitro. Assessment of reactive oxide species (ROS) were provided by using dihydrorhodamine 123 (DHR 123). Fluorescence intensity and percentage DHR123 were measured by flow cytometry. Platelets, erythrocytes and activated T-helpers were changed the level of ROS production in response to stimulation with cucurbiturils. It was found that the percentage of these ROS-producing cells was reduced by cucurbiturils. Thus, cucurbiturils may affect the production of ROS by cells, but further research is needed in this area.

Abstract
Background: Neutrophil extracellular trap (NET) production has been implicated in the pathogenesis of thromboinflammatory conditions such as Sickle Cell Disease (SCD), contributing to heightened risk for ischemic stroke. NETs are catalyzed by the enzyme Peptidyl Arginine Deiminase 4 (PAD4) and neutrophil derived reactive oxygen species (ROS), especially NADPH oxidase (NOX) which interacts with PAD4 and is therefore critical for neutrophil function. However, the role that NOX-dependent ROS and NETs play in the accelerated cerebral microvascular thrombosis associated with thromboinflammatory conditions, such as SCD, has not been fully elucidated and is the aim of this study. Methods: The in-vitro effects of targeting PAD4 and NOX were examined using physiologically relevant NET assays with neutrophils isolated from healthy volunteers (control) and SCD patients. In addition, in-vivo intravascular effects of targeting PAD4 and NOX in the cerebral microcirculation of C57BL/6 and sickle transgenic mice (STM) were assessed using a photoactivation thrombosis model (light/dye) coupled with real-time fluorescence intravital microscopy. Results: We found that targeting PAD4 and NOX in human neutrophils significantly inhibited ionomycin dependent H3cit+ neutrophils. Targeting PAD4 and NOX in-vivo resulted in prolonged blood flow cessation in cerebrovascular arterioles as well as venules. Moreover, we were able to replicate the effects of PAD4 and NOX targeting in a clinical model of accelerated thromboinflammation by increasing blood flow cessation times in cerebral microvessels in STM. These findings concurred with the clinical setting i.e. neutrophils isolated from SCD patients, which possessed an attenuation of H3cit+ neutrophil production on targeting PAD4 and NOX. Conclusions: Taken together, our compelling data suggests that PAD4 and NOX play a significant role in neutrophil driven thromboinflammation. Targeting PAD4 and NOX limits pathological H3cit+ neutrophils, which may further explain attenuation of cerebral thrombosis. Overall, this study presents a viable pre-clinical model of prevention and management of thromboinflammatory complications such as ischemic stroke.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are known to regulate platelet activation. Since endocannabinoids behave as platelet agonists, we investigated the effect of two endocannabinoids, 2-arachidonoylglycerol (2AG) and anandamide (AEA) on the oxidative status of human platelets. We have demonstrated that 2AG and AEA stimulate ROS production, superoxide anion formation and lipid peroxidation. The effect is dose and time dependent and mainly occurs through the involvement of cannabinoid receptor 1 (CB1) since all tested parameters are greatly reduced by SR141716, the CB1 specific inhibitor. The specific inhibitor of cannabinoid receptor 2 (CB2) SR144528 produces a very small inhibition. The involvement of syk/PI3K/AKT/mTor pathway in oxidative stress induced by endocannabinoids is shown. Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate oxidase seems to be poorly involved in the endocannabinoids effect. Concerning the aerobic metabolism, it has been demonstrated that endocannabinoids reduce the oxygen consumption and adenosine triphosphate synthesis, both in the presence of pyruvate + malate or succinate. In addition, endocannabinoids inhibit the activity of respiratory complexes II, III and IV and increase the activity of respiratory complex I. The endocannabinoids effect on aerobic metabolism seems to be also a CB1 mediated mechanism. Thus, in human platelets oxidative stress induced by endocannabinoids, mainly generated in the respiratory chain through the activation of complex I and the inhibition of complex II, III and IV, may lead to thrombotic events, contributing to cardiovascular diseases.

Abstract
Donated platelets are critical components of hemostasis management. Extending platelet storage beyond the recommended guidelines (5 days, 22 °C) is of clinical significance. Platelet coagulation function can be prolonged with resveratrol (Res) or cytochrome c (Cyt c) at 4 °C. We hypothesized that storage under these conditions is associated with maintained aggregation function, decreased reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, increased mitochondrial respiratory function, and preserved morphology. Donated platelets were stored at 22 °C or 4 °C supplemented with 50 μM Res or 100 μM Cyt c and assayed on days 0 (baseline), 5, 7 and 10 for platelet aggregation, morphology, intracellular ROS, and mitochondrial function. Declining platelet function and increased intracellular ROS were maintained by Res and Cyt c. Platelet respiratory control ratio declined during storage using complex I + II (CI + CII) or CIV substrates. No temperature-dependent differences (4 °C versus 22 °C) in respiratory function were observed. Altered platelet morphology was observed after 7 days at 22 °C, effects that were blunted at 4 °C independent of exposure to Res or Cyt c. Storage of platelets at 4 °C with Res and Cyt c modulates ROS generation and platelet structural integrity.

Abstract
Current technologies for the real-time analysis of biomarkers in vivo, such as needle-type microelectrodes and molecular imaging methods based on exogenous contrast agents, are still facing great challenges in either invasive detection or lack of active control of the imaging probes. In this study, by combining the design concepts of needle-type microelectrodes and the fluorescence imaging method, a new technique is developed for detecting biomarkers in vivo, named as "optically controlled virtual microsensor" (OCViM). OCViM is established by the organic integration of a specially shaped laser beam and fluorescent nanoprobe, which serve as the virtual handle and sensor tip, respectively. The laser beam can trap and manipulate the nanoprobe in a programmable manner, and meanwhile excite it to generate fluorescence emission for biosensing. On this basis, fully active control of the nanoprobe is achieved noninvasively in vivo, and multipoint detection can be realized at sub-micrometer resolution by shifting a nanoprobe among multiple positions. By using OCViM, the overexpression and heterogenous distribution of biomarkers in the thrombus is studied in living zebrafish, which is further utilized for the evaluation of antithrombotic drugs. OCViM may provide a powerful tool for the mechanism study of thrombus progression and the evaluation of antithrombotic drugs.

Abstract
Background Oxidized low‐density lipoprotein (oxLDL) and hs‐CRP (high‐sensitivity C‐reactive protein) plays an important role in cardiovascular diseases though inflammation and oxidative stress, etc. However, evidence on their combined effects on stroke prognosis is still limited. We aimed to explore the joint association of oxLDL and hs‐CRP with outcomes of minor stroke or transient ischemic attack. Methods and Results A subgroup of 3019 patients from the CHANCE trial (Clopidogrel in High‐Risk Patients With Acute Nondisabling Cerebrovascular Events) were analyzed. Baseline oxLDL and hs‐CRP levels were measured. The primary outcome was any stroke within 90 days. The secondary outcomes included any stroke within 1 year, and ischemic stroke, combined vascular events, and poor functional outcomes (modified Rankin Scale 2–6 or 3–6) at 90 days and 1 year. Vascular events outcomes were analyzed with Cox proportional hazards and poor functional outcomes with logistic models. Elevated oxLDL (>28.81 μg/dL) and hs‐CRP (>4.20 mg/L) was observed in 624 (20.67%) of the 3019 patients. Patients with oxLDL >28.81 μg/dL and hs‐CRP >4.20 mg/L had a higher risk of recurrent stroke within 90 days (adjusted hazard ratio, 1.52; 95% CI, 1.17–1.97), compared with those with oxLDL ≤28.81 μg/dL and hs‐CRP ≤4.20 mg/L, after adjusting relevant confounding factors (P=0.002). Similar results were observed for secondary outcomes (P<0.05 for all). Conclusions In patients with minor stroke or transient ischemic attack, joint high levels of oxLDL and hs‐CRP was associated with increased risk of recurrent stroke, combined vascular events, and poor functional outcome.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Unfolded protein response (UPR) is a multifaceted signaling cascade that alleviates protein misfolding. Although well studied in nucleated cells, UPR in absence of transcriptional regulation has not been described. Intricately associated with cardiovascular diseases, platelets, despite being anucleate, respond rapidly to stressors in blood. We investigate the UPR in anucleate platelets and explore its role, if any, on platelet physiology and function. METHODS Human and mouse platelets were studied using a combination of ex vivo and in vivo experiments. Platelet lineage-specific knockout mice were generated independently for each of the 3 UPR pathways, PERK (protein kinase RNA [PKR]-like endoplasmic reticulum kinase), XBP1 (X-binding protein), and ATF6 (activating transcription factor 6). Diabetes patients were prospectively recruited, and platelets were evaluated for activation of UPR under chronic pathophysiological disease conditions. RESULTS Tunicamycin induced the IRE1α (inositol-requiring enzyme-1alpha)-XBP1 pathway in human and mouse platelets, while oxidative stress predominantly activated the PERK pathway. PERK deletion significantly increased platelet aggregation and apoptosis and phosphorylation of PLCγ2, PLCβ3, and p38 MAPK. Deficiency of XBP1 increased platelet aggregation, with higher PLCβ3 and PKCδ activation. ATF6 deletion mediated a relatively modest effect on platelet phenotype with increased PKA (protein kinase A). Platelets from diabetes patients exhibited a positive correlation between disease severity, platelet activation, and protein aggregation, with only IRE1α-XBP1 activation. Moreover, IRE1α inhibition increased platelet aggregation, while clinically approved chemical chaperone, sodium 4-phenylbutyrate reduced the platelet hyperactivation. CONCLUSIONS We show for the first time, that UPR activation occurs in platelets and can be independent of genomic regulation, with selective induction being specific to the source and severity of stress. Each UPR pathway plays a key role and can differentially modulate the platelet activation pathways and phenotype. Targeting the specific arms of UPR may provide a new antiplatelet strategy to mitigate thrombotic risk in diabetes and other cardiovascular diseases.

Abstract
Evodia rutaecarpa has multiple pharmacological effects and is widely used in the prevention and treatment of migraine, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, cancer, and other chronic diseases; however, the pharmacological effects of its active compound evodiamine (Evo) have not been thoroughly investigated. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of Evo on antiplatelet activation and thrombosis. We discovered that Evo effectively inhibited collagen-induced platelet activation but had no effect on platelet aggregation caused by activators such as thrombin, ADP, and U46619. Second, we found that Evo effectively inhibited the release of platelet granules induced by collagen. Finally, evodiamine inhibits the transduction of the SFKs/Syk/Akt/PLCγ2 activation pathway in platelets. According to in vivo studies, Evo significantly prolonged the mesenteric thromboembolism induced by ferric chloride and had no discernible effect on the coagulation function of mice. In conclusion, the antiplatelet and thrombotic effects of Evo discovered in this study provide an experimental basis for the investigation of the pharmacological mechanisms of Evo and the development of antiplatelet drugs.

[PMID: 35631239 PMCID: PMC9143840 DOI: 10.3390/nu14102098] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/07/2022] [Revised: 05/10/2022] [Accepted: 05/13/2022] [Indexed: 01/25/2023] Open
Abstract
Background: This study assessed the effects of Baru (Dipteryx alata Vog.) almond oil supplementation on vascular function, platelet aggregation, and thrombus formation in aorta arteries of Wistar rats. Methods: Male Wistar rats were allocated into three groups. The control group (n = 6), a Baru group receiving Baru almond oil at 7.2 mL/kg/day (BG 7.2 mL/kg, n = 6), and (iii) a Baru group receiving Baru almond oil at 14.4 mL/kg/day (BG 14.4 mL/kg, n = 6). Baru oil was administered for ten days. Platelet aggregation, thrombus formation, vascular function, and reactive oxygen species production were evaluated at the end of treatment. Results: Baru oil supplementation reduced platelet aggregation (p < 0.05) and the production of the superoxide anion radical in platelets (p < 0.05). Additionally, Baru oil supplementation exerted an antithrombotic effect (p < 0.05) and improved the vascular function of aorta arteries (p < 0.05). Conclusion: The findings showed that Baru oil reduced platelet aggregation, reactive oxygen species production, and improved vascular function, suggesting it to be a functional oil with great potential to act as a novel product for preventing and treating cardiovascular disease.

Accumulated oxidative stress risk in HUVECs by chronic exposure to non-observable acute effect levels of PM 2.5. Toxicol In Vitro 2022; 82:105376. [PMID: 35550414 DOI: 10.1016/j.tiv.2022.105376] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/27/2021] [Revised: 02/26/2022] [Accepted: 05/05/2022] [Indexed: 11/23/2022]
Abstract
Few studies have reported the accumulation of non-observable acute effect (NOAE) of PM2.5, especially exposure to the NOAE doses (NOAEDs) of PM2.5 in chronic way. To address this issue, HUVECs were cultured from the 1st to 30th generations (G1 to G30) and treated by the NOAED PM2.5 once every three passages. The generational changes of oxidative damage markers, inflammatory factors, and cell adhesion molecules (CAMs) were monitored in HUVECs at G6, G12, G18, G24, and G30, and proteomes at G18 and G30, respectively. The oxidative damages monotonically accumulated with exposure time elongation and PM2.5 dose increases. Similar to the oxidative trends, VCAM1 and ICAM1 significantly and dose-dependently increased at G30. However, many inflammatory factors altered with complex patterns to respond the NOAEDs' PM2.5. Proteomic results demonstrated most proteins expressed stably, and the generational proteome alterations were more apparent than the NOAEDs' PM2.5 induced ones. The PM2.5-related proteins varied much, but only few can cross the doses and generations. These observations suggested that the proteins changed holistically rather than individually. In summary, SOD1, SUMO2, and H3F3A may initiate HUVESs responses to PM2.5, and then broadcast and accumulate the NOAE via DNA repair, immune response, and glycolysis.

Abstract
Hypoxia-inducible factors-1α (HIF-1α) involves in redox reaction. Considering the role of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in platelet function, whether it regulates platelet function remains unclear. Using an inhibitor of HIF prolyl hydroxylase IOX-2, we intend to investigate its effect on platelet function. Human platelets were treated with IOX-2 (0, 10, 25, and 50 M) followed by analysis of platelet aggregation, granule secretion, receptor expression, platelet spreading or clot retraction. Additionally, IOX-2 (10 mg/kg) was injected intraperitoneally into mice to measure tail bleeding time and arterial thrombosis. IOX-2 significantly inhibited collagen-related peptide (CRP, 0.25 μg/ml) or thrombin (0.03 U/ml)-induced platelet aggregation and ATP release dose dependently without affecting P-selectin expression and the surface levels of glycoprotein (GP)Ib, GPVI or IIb3. In addition, IOX-2-treated platelets presented significantly decreased spreading on fibrinogen or collagen and clot retraction. Moreover, IOX-2 administration into mice significantly impaired the in vivo hemostatic function of platelets and arterial thrombus formation without affecting the number of circulating platelets and coagulation factor (FVIII and FIX). Further, IOX-2 significantly upregulated HIF-1 in platelets, decreased ROS generation and downregulated NOX1 expression. Finally, IOX-2 increased the phosphorylation level of VASP (Ser157/239), and inhibited the phosphorylation of p38 (Thr180/Tyr182), ERK1/2 (Thr202/Tyr204), AKT (Thr308/Ser473) and PKC (Thr505) in CRP- or thrombin-stimulated platelets. In conclusion, inhibition of HIF prolyl hydroxylase modulates platelet function and arterial thrombus formation, possibly through upregulation of HIF-1α expression and subsequent inhibition of ROS generation, indicating that HIF-1α might be a novel target for the treatment of thrombotic disorders.
