Calcium-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 کاملDefective platelet aggregation to the calcium ionophore A23187 in a patient with a lifelong bleeding disorder.
A patient with a lifelong bleeding disorder is presented with a prolonged bleeding time and abnormal aggregation and secretion responses to arachidonic acid, thromboxane A2, PAF-acether and the divalent calcium ionophore A23187. Platelet alpha and dense granule contents and morphology appear normal. The proposed defect is due to an abnormality of a platelet intracellular calcium dependent process.
متن کاملPlatelets and microtubules. Effect of colchicine and D2O on platelet aggregation and release induced by calcium ionophore A23187.
We examined the role of microtubules in platelet aggregation and secretion (release reaction) induced by the calcium ionophore A23187 (0.8-5 muM). At these concentrations, platelet aggregation was preceded by a lag period of approximately 1 min. Colchicine (an agent that disrupts microtubule assembly-disassembly) was shown to bind to platelet microtubules by employing [(3)H]colchicine at a conc...
متن کاملRegulation of acetylcholinesterase expression by calcium signaling during calcium ionophore A23187- and thapsigargin-induced apoptosis.
We have recently reported that acetylcholinesterase expression was induced during apoptosis in various cell types. In the current study we provide evidence to suggest that the induction of acetylcholinesterase expression during apoptosis is regulated by the mobilization of intracellular Ca(2+). During apoptosis, treatment of HeLa and MDA-MB-435s cells with the calcium ionophore A23187 resulted ...
متن کاملPlatelet activating factor raises intracellular calcium ion concentration in macrophages
Peritoneal cells from thioglycollate-stimulated mice were allowed to adhere to coverglasses for 2 h to give a dense monolayer of adherent cells greater than 95% of which were macrophages. After incubation with the tetra-acetoxymethyl ester of quin2, coverglasses were rinsed with Ca2+-free saline, oriented at a 45 degree angle in square cuvettes containing a magnetically driven stir bar, and ana...
