Abstract
Background Therapeutic success of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) may vary based on the composition and preparation method. The objective of this study was to evaluate the cellular components of platelet concentrates produced by a leucocyte-rich (LR-PRP) and a leucocyte-poor PRP systems (LP-PRP). Methods Parameters evaluated included platelet recovery, platelet concentration, red blood cell (RBC) and white blood cell (WBC) composition, platelet growth factor release and stimulation of human tendon cell proliferation in vitro. Results Platelet recoveries were 52% for LP-PRP and 89% for LR-PRP. LR-PRP demonstrated greater reproducibility with a 4.2% coefficient of variation (CV) compared with 19.4% for LP-PRP (p<0.001). LR-PRP demonstrated a greater increase in platelet concentration (7.9-fold) than LP-PRP (2.2-fold; p<0.001). LP-PRP showed 5.0-fold reductions in WBCs, while LR-PRP showed a 4.0-fold increase (p<0.001). LP-PRP reduced RBCs to a haematocrit of 0.25, while LR-PRP reduced haematocrit to 11.8. LP-PRP did not coagulate robustly on reactivation with CaCl2, and released significantly lower levels of epidermal growth factor (EGF) and transforming growth factor β1 (TGF-β1) than whole blood (p<0.03). LP-PRP also did not stimulate tendon cell proliferation greater than whole blood. In contrast, LR-PRP showed increases in each growth factor on activation with CaCl2 (p<0.01) and stimulated greater proliferation (p<0.05) compared with whole blood. Forced activation of LP-PRP with exogenous thrombin rescued the coagulation deficiency and induced greater growth factor release than comparable whole blood (p<0.03). Conclusions These data suggest that non-platelet cellular components in platelet concentrates are important for proper platelet function, including thrombin generation, growth factor release and clot retraction.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Cardiac pump function and coronary regulation can be impaired after short-term ischemia. Recent studies with platelets (P) and neutrophils (PMN) yielded contradicting results about the "cellular" contribution to reperfusion injury. METHODS Isolated guinea pig hearts performing pressure-volume work were employed, external heart work (EHW), aortic flow (AF), coronary flow (CF) and heart rate (HR) serving as parameters of cardiac function. After global ischemia, human blood cells were given as bolus (1 min) during reperfusion (intracoronary hematocrit 7%). Expression of specific adhesion molecules (P: CD62P, CD41; PMN: integrin CD11b) was measured on cells before and after coronary passage (FACS analysis). RESULTS Postischemic recovery of pump function was significantly reduced in hearts with blood cell application (EHW: -cells 54 +/- 14%, +cells 41 +/-12%, p <0.05). Coronary response to bradykinin and reactive hyperemia were not effected. The blood-cell dependent functional loss was partly reduced by blocking CD18 (anti-CD 18) and completely abrogated by blockage of CD41 (lamifiban). The expression of CD11b on PMN and monocytes (M) and CD62P on platelets was significantly reduced in the coronary effluent and a significant decrease of CD41 on leukocytes occurred during coronary passage after ischemia. Increases in CD41 on PMN in the presence of lamifiban demasked intracoronary formation of micro aggregates (P/PMN). These micro aggregates were visualized by light microscopy. Electron microscopy revealed no significant microvascular plugging. CONCLUSION 1) A specifically blood-cell induced loss of myocardial pump function has been demonstrated after short-term ischemia. 2) CD41 (= GpIIbIIIa) on P is responsible for this cardiac reperfusion damage. 3) The effect is causally linked to the formation of micro aggregates between PMN and P, but seems attenuated in the presence of erythrocytes as compared to effects reported from experiments in which PMN and P were applied singly or co-perfused. 4) Intracoronary retention of PMN, M and platelet-leukocyte micro aggregates seems to be transient, as adherence was not confirmed by electron microscopy.

Abstract
Our failure to produce truly non-thrombogenic materials may reflect a failure to fully understand the mechanisms of biomaterial-associated thrombosis. The community has focused on minimizing coagulation or minimizing platelet adhesion and activation. We have infrequently considered the interactions between the two although we are generally familiar with these interactions. However, we have rarely considered in the context of biomaterial-associated thrombosis the other major players in blood: complement and leukocytes. Biomaterials are known agonists of complement and leukocyte activation, but this is frequently studied only in the context of inflammation. For us, thrombosis is a special case of inflammation. Here we summarize current perspectives on all four of these components in thrombosis and with biomaterials and cardiovascular devices. We also briefly highlight a few features of biomaterial-associated thrombosis that are not often considered in the biomaterials literature: The importance of tissue factor and the extrinsic coagulation system. Complement activation as a prelude to platelet activation and its role in thrombosis. The role of leukocytes in thrombin formation. The differing time scales of these contributions.

Abstract
Apoptosis of polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMN) is currently discussed as a key event in the control of inflammation. This study determined PMN apoptosis and its underlying mechanisms in controls (C), patients with stable (SAP) or unstable angina (UAP), and with acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Blood was drawn from 15 subjects of each C, SAP, UAP, and AMI. Apoptosis was measured by flow cytometry in isolated PMN (propidium iodide staining) and PMN from whole blood (CD16, FcgammaRIII). Serum cytokines were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Apoptosis of isolated PMN was delayed significantly in acute coronary syndromes (ACS) as compared with SAP or C (C, 51.2+/-12.6%; SAP, 44.9+/-13.6%; UAP, 28.4+/-10.1%; AMI, 20.3+/-8.5%; AMI or UAP vs. SAP or C, P<0.001). These results were confirmed by measurement of PMN apoptosis in cultured whole blood from patients and controls. Moreover, serum of patients with ACS markedly reduced apoptosis of PMN from healthy donors. Analysis of patients' sera revealed significantly elevated concentrations of tumor necrosis factor alpha, interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma), granulocyte macrophage-colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF), and interleukin (IL)-1beta in ACS (vs. C and SAP). IFN-gamma, GM-CSF, and IL-1beta significantly delayed PMN apoptosis in vitro. Furthermore, coincubation of PMN with adenosine 5'-diphosphate-activated platelets significantly inhibited PMN apoptosis as compared with coculture with unstimulated platelets. This study demonstrates a pronounced delay of PMN apoptosis in UAP and AMI, which may result from increased serum levels of IFN-gamma, GM-CSF, and IL-1beta and from enhanced platelet activation. Therapeutical modulation of these determinants of PMN lifespan may provide a new concept for the control of inflammation in ACS.

Abstract
The mechanism of cerebral infarction, in which thrombus formation and platelet-endothelium interaction play an important part, have not yet been clearly elucidated in vivo. The aim of this study was to observe rolling and adherent platelets and to analyze adherent leukocytes and vessel diameter change in vivo using a photothrombotic vessel occlusion model.A photothrombosis, which is mediated by free radicals, was induced in male Wistar rats in the presence of a photosensitizing dye (Photofrin II) and exposure to a filtered light. Rhodamine 6G-labeled platelets and leukocytes were visualized with intravital fluorescence videomicroscopy through a closed cranial or spinal window. The vessel diameter, photothrombosis and leukocyte adhesion were analyzed. Rolling and adherent platelets were observed during irradiation through the cerebral and spinal window. Before the platelets were recognized, the irradiated arteriole dilated significantly. After the photochemical occlusion of an arteriole, other arterioles also dilated and the adherent leukocytes increased in the venules. The photothrombosis were almost completely composed of platelets according to electron microscopic analysis. The arteriolar dilation rate and the number of adherent leukocytes in the cerebrum were greater than those in the spinal cord. By combining the photochemical thrombus formation and the fluorescence microscope techniques, we were able for the first time to observe rolling and adherent platelets and microvascular responses during photothrombosis in the cerebral and spinal microvasculature. It is suggested that free radicals, which can lead to platelet aggregation, play an important role as a cerebral vasodilator. This model is useful for cerebral and spinal microcirculatory analysis to investigate the platelet-endothelium interaction, the platelet aggregation and the effect of free radicals on cerebral and spinal microcirculation.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Platelet function may be influenced by cigarette smoking. We therefore examined the effect of smoking on platelet hemostasis capacity (PHC) with an in vitro analyzer (PFA-100). METHODS AND RESULTS Healthy blood donors (n=54) were included in the study and divided into four groups: nonsmoking males (n=14), nonsmoking females (n=14), smoking males (n=12) and smoking females (n=14). For in vitro analyses, in each participant citrated blood (3.2% buffered) was tested for PHC by two cartridges coated with collagen, and additionally with epinephrine (Col/Epi) or ADP (Col/ADP). Analyses were performed within 4 h after sample taking. PHC was expressed as the time in seconds to occlude the cartridge (closure time, CT). The average CT was significantly prolonged in female smokers compared to the female nonsmoking group for both types of cartridges (Col/Epi: P=.02; Col/ADP: P=.03). No significant differences were detected comparing the CT of smoking and nonsmoking males. After pooling male and female smokers and nonsmokers, no significant differences could be found, neither for the Col/Epi cartridges nor the Col/ADP cartridges. Plaletet aggregation assays performed in parallel showed no significant differences, except a reduced aggregability in male smokers compared to male nonsmokers using epinephrine 8.0 microM/ml as activating agent (P=.01). Furthermore, smoking volunteers presented with a significantly increased fibrinogen level compared to nonsmoking volunteers (P<.01). CONCLUSIONS The results of our study show that in habitual smokers PHC (PFA-100) and the capability of platelets to react upon agonist stimulation in aggregation assays is not significantly influenced or increased compared to healthy nonsmokers. However, an immediate effect of cigarette smoking cannot be excluded.

Abstract
Respiratory disease is a serious and significant health problem for the bovine industry. Classically, the clinical and research focus has been on the putative causative agents and conditions, and their interactions with host inflammatory cells, particularly alveolar macrophages and blood neutrophils. There is, currently, growing acceptance of the concept that blood platelets play a primary role in the inflammatory process. This review explores the implications of such pro-inflammatory activity, especially in the context of neutrophil-platelet interactions, and the species specificity of cellular responses. The relevance of these issues for the treatment and prevention of bovine respiratory disease is also discussed.

Abstract
Coronary artery stents can induce platelet activation by shear forces, contact to the biomaterial, and release of metal ions. This activation is one important trigger for thrombosis. Coating of stents is a possible approach to prevent this side effect. The purpose of this study was to evaluate in vitro the biocompatibility of stents coated with diamond-like carbon (DLC). Semiquantitative energy-dispersive X-ray microanalyses showed a complete coverage of the DLC stents. Flow cytometric analyses revealed a significantly higher increase of mean channel fluorescence intensity for the activation-dependent antigens CD62p and CD63 in non-coated compared to DLC-coated stents (p<0.05). Atomic adsorption spectrophotometry analyses revealed a significant release of nickel and chromium metal ions by non-coated stents over a storage period of 96 hours in human plasma (p<0.05). In contrast, only minimal concentrations of released ions could be detected in the case of DLC-coated stents. Similar observations were made with inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry analyses. Here, high concentrations of molybdenum and manganese ions were released from non-coated stents (p<0.05), while release of these ions from DLC-coated stents was virtually undetectable (p=0.1 for molybdenum and p=0.4 for manganese). Coating of intracoronary stents with diamond-like carbon significantly improves biocompatibility. This biocompatible coating may therefore contribute to a reduction in thrombogenicity.

Abstract
Background: Leumedins inhibit cell adhesion to endothelium via blockage of integrin binding. We tested a hypothesis that the novel leucine derivate NPC 15669 will affect in vitro platelet aggregability (PA) in both human and swine plasma. Methods and Results: Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) was incubated with 200 µ g and 400 µ g of NPC 15669. Then PA was induced by ADP, collagen, thrombin, and ristocetin in the PRP without NPC 15669 and in NPC 15669-treated samples. We have found that PRP incubation with 200 µ g of NPC 15669 significantly decreases PA compared to baseline in all three experimental groups in response to all agonists tested. When PRP was treated with 400 µ g of NPC 15669, dose-dependent reduction of PA was observed only in the human control and swine groups, but not in patients with coronary atherosclerosis. Conclusions: Leumedins, known for their antiinflammatory properties, may have clinical applications related to their effect on platelet function. The mechanism of these effects is unknown, but may be related to the inhibition of platelet-endothelial binding.

Abstract
In the present paper, we characterize an antibody, mAb BV13, directed to mouse vascular endothelial (VE)-cadherin, a major adhesive protein of interendothelial adherens junctions. When added to cultured endothelial cells, BV13 induces a redistribution of VE-cadherin from intercellular junctions. VE-cadherin redistribution did not change the localization of platelet endothelial cell adhesion molecule or tight junction markers such as zonula occludens 1, cingulin, and junctional adhesion molecule. Intravenous administration of mAb BV13 induced a concentration- and time-dependent increase in vascular permeability in heart and lungs. By electron microscopy, interstitial edema and accumulation of mixed types of inflammatory cells in heart and lungs were observed. Injection of (rhodamine-labeled) Ricinus communis I lectin showed focal spots of exposed basement membrane in the alveolar capillaries and in some larger pulmonary vessels. These data indicate that VE-cadherin is required for vascular integrity and normal organ functions.

Abstract
The integrin heterodimer CDllb/CD18 (alphaMbeta2, Mac-1, CR3) expressed on monocytes or polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN) is a receptor for iC3b, fibrinogen, heparin, and for intercellular adhesion molecule (ICAM)-1 on endothelium, crucially contributing to vascular cell interactions in inflammation and atherosclerosis. In this report, we summarize our findings on the effects of lipid mediators and lipid-lowering drugs. Exposure of endothelial cells to oxidized low density lipoprotein (oxLDL) induces upregulation of ICAM-1 and increases adhesion of monocytic cells expressing Mac-1. Inhibition experiments show that monocytes use distinct ligands, i.e. ICAM-1 and heparan sulfate proteoglycans for adhesion to oxLDL-treated endothelium. An albumin-transferable oxLDL activity is inhibited by the antioxidant pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate (PDTC), while 8-epi-prostaglandin F2alpha (8-epi-PGF2alpha) or lysophosphatidylcholine had no effect, implicating yet unidentified radicals. Sequential adhesive and signaling events lead to the firm adhesion of rolling PMN on activated and adherent platelets, which may occupy areas of endothelial denudation. Shear-resistant arrest of PMN on thrombin-stimulated platelets in flow conditions requires distinct regions of Mac-1, involving its interactions with fibrinogen bound to platelet alphallbbeta3, and with other platelet ligands. Both arrest and adhesion strengthening under flow are stimulated by platelet-activating factor and leukotriene B4, but not by the chemokine receptor CXCR2. We tested whether Mac-1-dependent monocyte adhesiveness is affected by inhibitors of hydroxy-methylglutaryl-Coenzyme A reductase (statins) which improve morbidity and survival of patients with coronary heart disease. As compared to controls, adhesion of isolated monocytes to endothelium ex vivo was increased in patients with hypercholesterolemia. Treatment with statins decreased total and low density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol plasma levels, surface expression of Mac-1, and resulted in a dramatic reduction of Mac-1-mediated monocyte adhesion to endothelium. The inhibition of monocyte adhesion was reversed by mevalonate but not LDL in vitro, indicating that isoprenoid precursors are crucial for adhesiveness of Mac-1. Such effects may crucially contribute to the clinical benefit of statins, independent of cholesterol-lowering, and may represent a paradigm for novel, anti-inflammatory mechanisms of action by this class of drugs.

Abstract
AIMS Aspirin has proven clinical efficacy in limiting the thrombotic complications of atherosclerotic vascular disease but its mechanism of action remains unclear. Recent evidence suggests the anti-platelet action of aspirin may be partly mediated by neutrophil derived nitric oxide (NO). The aim of the study was to determine the effects of aspirin on thrombin-induced platelet expression of the alpha-granule membrane protein, P-selectin, and the platelet surface glycoprotein required for aggregation, GPIIb-IIIa, and to assess whether this was enhanced by the presence of neutrophils. METHODS Platelet P-selectin and GPIIb-IIIa receptor expression were assessed by flow cytometric analysis of washed platelets stimulated with thrombin (0.025 iu ml(-1), sub aggregatory concentration) alone or after pre-incubation with aspirin (0.05, 0.1, 0.5, 1.0 mg m1(-1) either in the presence or absence of neutrophils (100 platelets per neutrophil). NO release was determined by assay of nitrite in the supernatants from parallel samples. RESULTS In preliminary aggregation studies, aspirin at all concentrations inhibited arachidonic acid but not thrombin-induced platelet aggregation. Similarly, aspirin at all concentrations failed to inhibit thrombin-induced platelet P-selectin or GPIIb-IIIa expression and this was not influenced by the presence of neutrophils. A reduction in P-selectin and GPIIb-IIIa receptor density on non-activated platelets co-incubated with unstimulated neutrophils was associated with NO release from neutrophils, but this was not enhanced by the addition of aspirin. CONCLUSIONS These results confirm that thrombin-induced platelet alpha-granule release, with consequent P-selectin expression, and platelet GPIIb-IIIa expression, are not affected by aspirin inhibition of cyclo-oxygenase and suggest that the anti-thrombotic efficacy of aspirin in vivo may partly depend on other mechanisms. This study did not demonstrate an effect of neutrophils or neutrophil derived NO on aspirin inhibition of platelet adhesion receptor expression.

Abstract
We have studied the pathways that lead to arrest and firm adhesion of rolling PMN on activated, surface-adherent platelets. Stable arrest and adhesion strengthening of PMN on thrombin-stimulated, surface-adherent platelets in flow required distinct Ca2+- and Mg2+-dependent regions of Mac-1 (alphaMbeta2), and involved interactions of Mac-1 with fibrinogen, which was bound to platelets via alphaIIbbeta3. Mac-1 also bound to other unidentified ligands on platelets, which were not intracellular adhesion molecule-2 (ICAM-2), heparin, or heparan-sulfate proteoglycans. This was shown by inhibition with mAbs or peptides, by treatment of platelets with heparitinase, and by using platelets with defective alphaIIbbeta3 from a patient with Glanzmann thrombasthenia. Tethering of PMN on platelet ICAM-2 via LFA-1 (alphaLbeta2) was observed, which may facilitate the transition between rolling on selectins and Mac-1-dependent arrest. Arrest and adhesion strengthening was pertussis toxin sensitive and in flow was mainly induced by platelet-activating factor but not through activation of the chemokine receptor CXCR2. In stasis, spreading occurred and the CXCR2 contributed to firm adhesion.

Abstract
Neutrophil elastase (NE) and cathepsin G are two serine proteinases released concomitantly by stimulated polymorphonuclear neutrophils. We previously demonstrated that while NE by itself does not activate human platelets, it strongly enhances the weak aggregation induced by a threshold concentration of cathepsin G (threshold of cathepsin G) (Renesto, P., and Chignard, M. (1993) Blood 82, 139-144). The aim of this study was to delineate the molecular mechanisms involved in this potentiation process. Two main pieces of data prompted us to focus on the activation of the platelet fibrinogen receptor, the alphaIIbbeta3 integrin. First, previous studies have shown this integrin to be particularly prone to proteolytic regulation of its function. Second, we found that the potentiating activity of NE on the threshold of cathepsin G-induced platelet aggregation was strictly dependent on the presence of exogenous fibrinogen. Using flow cytometry analysis, NE was shown to trigger a time-dependent binding of PAC-1 and AP-5, two monoclonal antibodies specific for the activated and ligand-occupied conformers of alphaIIbbeta3. Furthermore, the potentiated aggregation was shown to result from an increased capacity of platelets to bind fibrinogen. Indeed, the combination of NE and threshold of cathepsin G increased the binding of PAC-1 approximately 5.5-fold over basal values measured on nontreated platelets, whereas this binding raised only by approximately 3-fold in threshold of cathepsin G-stimulated platelets (p < 0.05). By contrast, phosphatidic acid accumulation, pleckstrin phosphorylation, and calcium mobilization produced by the combination of NE and threshold of cathepsin G were not significantly different from those measured with threshold of cathepsin G alone (p > 0.05), indicating that the phospholipase C/protein kinase C pathway is not involved in the potentiation of aggregation. The foregoing data, as well as the requirement of catalytically active NE to trigger alphaIIbbeta3 activation and potentiate threshold of cathepsin G-initiated platelet aggregation, led us to examine whether the structure of this integrin was affected by NE. Immunoblot and flow cytometry analysis revealed a limited proteolysis of the carboxyl terminus of the alphaIIb subunit heavy chain (alphaIIbH), as judged by the disappearance of the epitope for the monoclonal antibody PMI-1. Mass spectrometry studies performed on a synthetic peptide mapping over the cleavage domain of alphaIIbH predicted the site of proteolysis as located between Val837 and Asp838. Treatment by NE of ATP-depleted platelets or Chinese hamster ovary cells expressing human recombinant alphaIIbbeta3 clearly established that activation of the integrin was independent of signal transduction events and was concomitant with the proteolysis of alphaIIbH. In support of this latter observation, a close correlation was observed between the kinetics of proteolysis of alphaIIbH on platelets and that of expression of the ligand binding activity of alphaIIbbeta3 (r2 = 0.902, p </= 0. 005). However, only a subpopulation ( approximately 25%) of the proteolyzed alphaIIbbeta3 appeared to fully express the ligand binding capacity. Altogether, these results demonstrate that NE up-regulates the fibrinogen binding activity of alphaIIbbeta3 through a restricted proteolysis of the alphaIIb subunit, and that this process is relevant for the potentiation of platelet aggregation.

Abstract
One of the limitations of coronary stenting is the subacute thrombotic occlusion. In an in vitro model, we examined the effects of tantalum wire stents (n = 12) on platelet antigens. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) was circulated in PVC tubing systems. At fixed intervals over a 10-min time course, aliquots of PRP were drawn, stained with monoclonal antibodies (CD41a, CD42b, CD62p, and CD63), and analyzed by flow cytometry. Within 2 minutes of the onset of circulation, expression of the activation-dependent antigens CD62p and CD63 increased in all tubing systems with stents. This early increase was followed by a progressive rise in fluorescence intensity of these neoantigens over the course of 10 minutes (p < 0.05 vs.. control system without stent). Antigens CD41a and CD42b did not show significant changes in either system. The artificial surfaces and shear forces of stent meshes induce alterations in platelet antigens. Flow cytometry provides a sensitive technique for in vitro testing of the thrombogenicity of coronary stents, and may be useful in further improving stent biocompatibility.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Activation of platelets and expression of adhesion molecules (e.g. CD62P and CD63) which mediate interactions between platelets and other cells may be important in the pathogenesis of aspirin-sensitive asthma. OBJECTIVE To determine the expression of CD62P and CD63 on platelets from aspirin-sensitive asthmatic (ASA+), aspirin-tolerant asthmatic (ASA-) and normal subjects and to assess the modulatory effect of aspirin on platelet CD62P and CD63 expression following stimulation with either platelet-activating factor (PAF), arachidonic acid (AA) or collagen (COL). METHODS Platelet-rich plasma was obtained from 10 ASA+, 10 ASA- and 10 normal control subjects, and expression of CD62P and CD63 was measured by flow cytometry. Platelets were stimulated with PAF (10, 80 nM), AA (0.1, 1 mM) or COL (80, 800 micrograms/mL) with or without aspirin (concentration range 0.4-4 mg/mL). RESULTS In the absence of aspirin, CD62P expression induced by AA and COL was greater in ASA+ patients compared with control subjects (P < 0.001) while CD62P expression with PAF, AA and COL was reduced in ASA- when compared with ASA+ and control subjects (P < 0.001). CD63 expression with PAF and AA was reduced in both ASA+ and ASA- patients compared with control subjects (P < 0.001). Aspirin inhibited the expression of both CD62P and CD63 after agonist stimulation. Greater inhibition of CD62P expression was observed in ASA+ compared with ASA- patients (P < 0.001) and normal subjects (P < 0.05) while greater inhibition of CD63 expression was observed in normal subjects compared with both ASA+ and ASA- patients (P < 0.05). In ASA+ patients and normal subjects, stimulation with PAF and COL resulted in only one platelet population while in contrast with 1 mM AA two populations were observed. CONCLUSIONS Enhanced AA- and collagen-induced platelet CD62P expression in ASA+ patients compared with normal subjects and greater inhibition by aspirin of CD62P expression in ASA+ may be relevant to the pathogenesis of this syndrome. Reduced expression of CD62P and CD63 in platelets of ASA- patients following stimulation with PAF and AA may also have implications for the role of platelets and these mediators in the pathogenesis of other forms of asthma.

Abstract
1. Neutrophils and platelets interact in vitro through multiple biochemical pathways in both directions, resulting in an inhibition or a potentiation of their reactivity, depending on the experimental conditions. 2. Under some conditions, a full stimulation of platelets (aggregation and degranulation) can be induced by neutrophils. The present review is focused on this aspect for which serine proteinases released from the azurophilic granules of neutrophils activate surrounding platelets. 3. The different facets of this process at the cellular and molecular levels, are presently depicted and their relevance to the in vivo situation suggested.

Abstract
Upon activation, human polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMN) release two serine proteinases, cathepsin G (Cat.G) and elastase (HLE), which in turn synergize to activate nearby platelets. We looked for the inhibitory effect of plasma and the involvement of alpha 1 antichymotrypsin (alpha 1 ACT) and alpha 1 antitrypsin (alpha 1 AT), on this cell-to-cell cooperation. It was observed that inhibition by plasma of PMN-mediated platelet activation was rather correlated with an effect on HLE (r = 0.95) than on Cat.G (r = 0.65) enzymatic activity. Purified alpha 1 AT suppressed in a concentration-dependent manner HLE activity present in the supernatant of activated PMN. When HLE was fully blocked, alpha 1 AT started to inhibit Cat.G activity. By contrast and as expected, purified alpha 1 ACT inhibited only Cat.G activity. Using specific blocking polyclonal antibodies against alpha 1 AT and alpha 1 ACT, it was demonstrated that the inhibitory effect of plasma vs. HLE was entirely mediated by alpha 1 AT. By contrast, blockade of Cat.G activity was only partly due to plasma alpha 1 ACT and around 50% was attributable to alpha 1 AT. When plasma from patients with an acute inflammatory state was used in place of plasma from normal subjects, the inhibitory effect was more pronounced, while plasma depleted in alpha 1 AT and alpha 1 ACT was less effective. These data indicate a predominant role of alpha 1 AT in the inhibition by plasma of the PMN-mediated platelet activation.

Abstract
When polymorphonuclear neutrophil-platelet suspensions were stimulated by 0.5 microM N-formyl-Met-Leu-Phe in the presence of 40 U/mL of superoxide dismutase, a significant reduction of platelet secretion was observed (51.4 +/- 6.3% vs 62.4 +/- 4.6% for control; mean +/- SEM; N = 6; P < 0.01). This was due to the superoxide anion scavenging property of superoxide dismutase since neutrophil degranulation, cathepsin G and elastase enzymatic activities (the two main mediators of this cell-to-cell interaction) and platelet reactivity were not affected. Involvement of superoxide anions was confirmed using leukotriene B4, a neutrophil agonist which induces degranulation with minimal superoxide anion production. Indeed, serotonin release induced by this agonist was unchanged whether superoxide dismutase was added or not.
