Molecular mapping of platelet hyperreactivity in diabetes: the stress proteins complex HSPA8/Hsp90/CSK2α and platelet aggregation in diabetic and normal platelets. Transl Res 2021; 235:1-14. [PMID: 33887528 DOI: 10.1016/j.trsl.2021.04.003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/01/2020] [Revised: 04/09/2021] [Accepted: 04/12/2021] [Indexed: 11/15/2022]
Abstract
The molecular understanding of the pathophysiological changes elicited by diabetes in platelets may help in further elucidating the involvement of this pseudo-cell in the increased risk of developing cardiovascular disease and thrombosis in diabetic subjects. We aimed to investigate the differential characteristics of platelets from diabetic patients and nondiabetic controls to unveil the molecular mechanisms behind the increased platelet reactivity in diabetes. We compared platelets from diabetic and control subjects by 2 dimensional-electrophoresis followed by mass spectrometry. Changes in selected differential proteins were validated by immunoprecipitation assays and western blot. Platelet aggregation was measured by light transmittance aggregometry induced by collagen and ADP, and dynamic coagulation analysis of whole blood was measured by thromboelastometry. We observed significant differences in proteins related to platelet aggregation, cell migration, and cell homeostasis. Subjects with diabetes showed higher platelet aggregation and thrombogenicity and higher contents of the stress-related protein complex HSPA8/Hsp90/CSK2α than nondiabetic subjects. Changes in the chaperones HSPA8 and Hsp90, and in CSK2α protein contents correlated with changes in platelet aggregation and blood coagulation activity. In conclusion, the complex HSPA8/Hsp90/CSK2α is involved in diabetes-related platelet hyperreactivity. The role of the HSPA8/Hsp90/CSK2α complex may become a molecular target for the development of future preventive and therapeutic strategies for platelet dysfunction associated with diabetes and its complications.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Acetylsalicylic acid (ASA), or aspirin, plus clopidogrel is becoming the standard antithrombotic treatment in people with coronary disease. Novel approaches such as the use of platelet-selective nitric oxide (NO) donors may provide additional protection against thrombosis. We evaluated the antithrombotic properties of a novel platelet-selective NO donor (LA816) administered alone and in combination with ASA, clopidogrel, or ASA+clopidogrel. METHODS AND RESULTS Thrombogenicity was measured in the porcine experimental model and assessed as platelet-thrombus formation in the ex vivo Badimon perfusion chamber. Pigs were randomly divided into 4 groups: (1) placebo control, (2) clopidogrel, (3) ASA, and (4) ASA+clopidogrel (ASA and clopidogrel were given orally, 10 mg x kg(-1) x d(-1) for 3 d). The animals were anesthetized, heparinized, and catheterized, and the Badimon perfusion chamber was placed in an extracorporeal shunt. After baseline perfusions, all animal groups received the intravenous infusion of LA816 for 2 hours. Platelet aggregation, blood pressure, and heart rate also were evaluated during the experiments. LA816, clopidogrel, and ASA+clopidogrel produced a reduction of approximately 45% on thrombus mass versus placebo control perfusions (P<0.05). Combined treatment of oral ASA+clopidogrel and intravenous LA816 produced a significant further reduction of 25% in platelet deposition (70% from placebo controls; P<0.0001). LA816 intravenous treatment did not modify blood pressure or heart rate. CONCLUSIONS Acute NO donation with LA816, without modifying hemodynamic parameters, provides the same inhibitory effect as that obtained with chronic treatment with clopidogrel+ASA. Moreover, LA816 provides platelet inhibitory effects in addition to those of the combined blockade of cyclooxygenase and P2y(12) receptor.

Abstract
Background—
Moderate consumption of red wine has been epidemiologically associated with a reduction in cardiovascular disease, but its mechanism of action is not fully understood. The objective was to study whether the protective effects of a daily intake of red wine (Tempranillo, 12.8% alcohol vol/vol) could be related to inhibition of thrombosis in an experimental model of diet-induced hyperlipemia.
Methods and Results—
For 100 days, animals were fed a western-type proatherogenic diet containing 2% cholesterol and 20% saturated fat. Three doses of red wine were studied (20, 30, and 40 g wine-ethanol/d) and compared with placebo-control animals not taking any wine. Thrombosis under flow conditions was evaluated by radioisotopic quantification of deposited platelets on damaged arteries. Changes in RhoA translocation in platelets and monocyte tissue factor expression were also analyzed. Mural platelet deposition was significantly reduced in animals ingesting red wine with their food. Expression of RhoA in the platelet cytoplasm (inactive form) was increased in wine-fed animals. Tissue factor mRNA expression in lipopolysaccharide-stimulated monocytes was reduced in wine-fed animals. Total cholesterol levels were not significantly different among groups.
Conclusions—
Moderate red wine intake significantly reduces platelet deposition triggered by damaged vessel wall, partially explained by inhibition of RhoA translocation to the platelet membrane. Hence, a daily moderate intake of wine seems to inhibit different pathways that converge in a reduced thrombotic risk on vessel wall injury.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Tissue factor (TF) is the main initiator of the arterial blood coagulation system, and aggregated LDL (agLDL) are found in the arterial intima. Our hypothesis is that agLDL internalization by vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) may trigger TF-procoagulant activity. METHODS AND RESULTS Cultured human VSMCs were obtained from human coronary arteries of explanted hearts during transplant operations. VSMCs were incubated with native LDL (nLDL) or agLDL. TF mRNA was analyzed by real-time polymerase chain reaction, and cellular and released TF protein antigen were analyzed by Western blot. TF microparticle (MP) content was analyzed by flow cytometry and TF activity by a factor Xa generation test. Both nLDL and agLDL strongly and equally increased TF mRNA and cell membrane protein expression, by approximately 5- and 9-fold, respectively. A sustained TF procoagulant activity was induced by agLDL but not by nLDL (agLDL 2.46+/-0.22 versus nLDL 0.72+/-0.12 mU/mg protein at 12 hours). AgLDL increased TF antigen release (agLDL 5.64+/-0.4 versus nLDL 3.28+/-0.22 AU) and TF MP release (agLDL 89.85+/-8.51 versus nLDL 19.69+/-4.59 TF MP/10(3) cells). TF activation and release induced by agLDL is not related to apoptosis. Blockade of LDL receptor-related protein, a receptor for agLDL, prevented the agLDL-induced release of TF protein and TF MP. CONCLUSIONS VSMC-TF expression is upregulated by both nLDL and agLDL. However, only agLDL engagement to LDL receptor-related protein induced cellular TF procoagulant activity and TF release by human VSMCs.

Abstract
We have identified a new cyclic-nucleotide phosphodiesterase isoform, PDE3A, and cloned its cDNA from cultured aortic myocytes. The nucleotide sequence of its coding region is similar to that of the previously cloned myocardial isoform except for the absence of the initial 300-400 nt that are present in the latter, as confirmed by reverse-transcriptase-mediated PCR, 5' rapid amplification of cDNA ends and a ribonuclease protection assay. Expression in Spodoptera frugiperda (Sf9) cells yields a protein with catalytic activity and inhibitor sensitivity typical of the PDE3 family. The recombinant protein's molecular mass of approx. 131 kDa is compatible with translation from an ATG sequence corresponding to nt 436-438 of the myocardial PDE3A coding region. Antibodies against residues 424-460 (nt 1270-1380) and 1125-1141 (nt 3373-3423) of the myocardial isoform react with an approx. 118 kDa band in Western blots of homogenates of human aortic myocytes, whereas antibodies against residues 29-42 (nt 85-126) do not react with any bands in these homogenates. Our results suggest that a vascular smooth-muscle isoform ('PDE3A2') is a product of the same gene as the longer myocardial ('PDE3A1') and the shorter placental ('PDE3A3') isoforms and is generated pre-translationally in a manner that results in the absence of the 145 N-terminal amino acids of PDE3A1.

Abstract
The effects of cilostamide, a cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase 3 (PDE3) selective inhibitor, on vascular intimal hyperplasia were evaluated using a single-balloon injury model and a double-injury model in which the rat common carotid artery was subjected to a second injury at a site injured 14 days previously. In the double-injury model, the second balloon injury caused more severe intimal hyperplasia (intima/media (IM) ratio, 1.88+/-0.10) than in the single-injury model (1.09+/-0.08). Histopathological study revealed that vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC) were the predominant cell-type in the affected neointimal area. Oral administration of cilostamide for 2 weeks after the second injury suppressed intimal hyperplasia in the double-injury model (30 mg kg(-1) bid, 83% inhibition in terms of the IM ratio, P<0.05; 100 mg kg(-1) bid, 69% inhibition, P<0.05). Similar effects were also observed in the single-injury model with oral administration of cilostamide for 2 weeks (100 mg kg(-1) bid, 36% inhibition, P<0.01). Cilostamide inhibited DNA synthesis of cultured VSMC stimulated by foetal calf serum or different kinds of growth factors, but did not affect their migration stimulated by platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF)-BB. Cilostamide significantly increased the cyclic AMP concentration of VSMC dose-dependently. These results indicate that cilostamide suppresses intimal hyperplasia both in the single- and double-injury models of rat, presumably by inhibiting proliferation rather than migration of VSMC. It is suggested that PDE3 inhibitors might find application in preventing intimal hyperplasia following angioplasty such as percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) or stent.

Abstract
67% of total cAMP phosphodiesterase activity (PDE) in cultured rat hepatocytes could be detected in the cytosol, 15% in plasma membrane, 15% in 'dense vesicle,' and 3% in endoplasmatic reticulum fractions. Up to 84% of the PDE activity of the cytosol is represented by the rolipram-sensitive PDE 4. ICI 118233-inhibited PDE 3 was found predominantly in membranes. We were able to show that dexamethasone acts on the PDE 4 in cytosolic and plasma membrane fractions whereas glucagon effected the PDE 4 of the cytosol and the PDE 3 in 'dense vesicle' membranes. Primary culture of hepatocytes was used to study long-term effects of dexamethasone and glucagon on PDE 4 activity. Addition of dexamethasone (0.1 microM) at the beginning of cultivation leads to a decrease of total PDE 4 activity whereas after 24 h precultivation no dexamethasone effect could be observed. Glucagon effects on PDE 4 were investigated in 20 h precultured hepatocytes. Maximal stimulation was achieved after 2 h of exposure. PDE 4 subtypes A, B , D and, to a lesser degree, subtype C could be detected by RT-PCR analysis. The results of semiquantitative RT-PCR show that the presence of dexamethasone during the first 24 h of cultivation reduced selectively the transcription of PDE 4D, whereas glucagon was without any effect. Also the translation of PDE 4D was reduced as shown in the Western blot. We would like to discuss the way that dexamethasone influences PDE 4D expression-most likely in combination with other factors such as cytokines--during the time of cell plating, whereas glucagon actions are part of metabolic regulations via phosphorylation reactions.

Abstract
Experiments were conducted to determine how selective inhibitors of certain cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase (PDE) families, namely CI-930 (PDE3 inhibitor; 3-(2H)-pyridazinone-4,5-dihydro-6-[4-(1H-imidazolyl) phenyl]-5-methyl monohydro chloride) and rolipram (PDE4 inhibitor), may affect human coronary artery smooth muscle cell (HCASMC) proliferation. CI-930- and rolipram-inhibitable PDEs accounted for most of the cyclic AMP hydrolyzing activity in HCASMC. Twenty micromolar CI-930 and 20 microM rolipram used individually attenuated proliferation of HCASMC from some, but not all donors, as measured by flow cytometry. The simultaneous addition of 10 microM CI-930 plus 10 microM rolipram caused greater attenuation. This attenuation represented a reduction of the number of cells entering the S phase of the cell cycle and not merely a delay in cell cycle traverse. No statistically significant elevation of cyclic AMP was detected following the addition of either PDE inhibitor individually, but the combination produced significant elevations. It is concluded that CI-930- and rolipram-inhibitable PDE isozymes are expressed in HCASMC and that selective inhibitors of these isozymes can attenuate HCASMC proliferation. The data suggest that selective PDE inhibitors may prevent restenosis in patients following percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty because of their effect on HCASMC proliferation, and they may also be useful in retarding the progression of atherosclerosis in individuals at risk. PDE3 and PDE4 inhibitors in combination are more effective than the inhibitors used individually.

Abstract
In response to intravenous administration of dipyridamole, the quantitative and temporal changes in plasma adenosine and cyclic AMP (cAMP) levels in relation to the changes in cerebral blood flow (CBF) and mean arterial blood pressure (MABP) have not been studied. Therefore, we investigated simultaneously the changes in CBF (hydrogen and thermal clearance methods), MABP, plasma adenosine (HPLC) and cAMP (radioimmunoassay) levels for 1 h after intravenous injection of 0.7 and 1.4 mg/kg dipyridamole in rabbits. In separate experiments, only plasma adenosine concentrations were measured to determine how and for how long intravenous administration of 0.7 mg/kg dipyridamole is able to inhibit the removal of plasma adenosine. Dipyridamole decreased MABP, increased plasma adenosine and cAMP levels in a dose-dependent manner. The dose-dependency of increases in CBF could not be demonstrated owing to the marked hypotension. The increase in plasma adenosine concentrations was biphasic. The first peak could be detected at the end of the dipyridamole injection. The second peak occurred 20 min after drug administration, simultaneously with the maximal increases in plasma cAMP level and CBF, whereas the maximal fall in MABP developed earlier. Intravenous administration of 0.7 mg/kg dipyridamole inhibited adenosine uptake only by 25%, which lasted less than 10 min. We concluded that intravenously given dipyridamole is responsible only for the initial short-lasting elevation of plasma adenosine concentration, and is able to induce vasodilation without either dipyridamole itself or adenosine necessarily gaining access to the muscular layer.
