Calcium-dependent proteolysis of actin during storage of platelet concentrates.
In an ongoing study of the changes that occur in platelet concentrates during storage, we investigated two 28-26-Kd proteins designated SP-1 and SP-2, respectively, which increase markedly during blood-bank storage of platelet concentrates at room temperature. Formation of SP-1 and SP-2 was inhibited by storage at 4 degrees C as well as by treatment of the concentrates with leupeptin, N-ethylma...
متن کاملCalcium-dependent synergistic interaction of platelet activating factor and epinephrine in human platelet aggregation.
AIM To investigate the mechanism (s) involved in the synergistic interaction of platelet activating factor (PAF) and epinephrine. METHODS Blood was obtained from healthy human subjects reported to be free of medications for at least two weeks before sampling. Aggregation was monitored at 37 oC using Dual-channel Lumi-aggregometer. The resulting aggregation was recorded for 5 min by the measur...
متن کاملProteolysis of myosin during platelet storage.
Physical properties of actomyosin from either fresh or stored platelets have been compared. Actomyosin obtained from platelets after 3 days of storage contained myosin that was 60-80% degraded to myosin rod. No myosin rod was detected in fresh platelets. The platelet myosin rod is similar to the rod produced by limited proteolysis of skeletal muscle myosin.
متن کاملHuman platelet activation in the absence of aggregation: a calcium-dependent phenomenon independent of thromboxane formation.
In response to ionophore A 23187, thrombasthenic and EDTA-treated control platelet-rich plasmas (PRP) undergo a change in light transmission (LT) accompanied by a normal 14C-serotonin (5HT) release and thromboxane (TX) synthesis in the absence of aggregation. Ultrastructural qualitative electron microscopy revealed central apposition of organelles and loosely packed platelets in both models, wh...
متن کاملPlatelet aggregation studies during transient hypoglycaemia
The effect of acute hypoglycaemia on platelet function was examined in patients undergoing an insulin stress test. Enhanced platelet aggregation was observed in all cases but platelet count, platelet adenine nucleotides, and the plasma level of von Willebrand factor were unchanged overall. The onset of the hypoglycaemia-induced increase in platelet aggregation coincided with the lowest blood gl...
