Abstract
Procoagulant collagen-and-thrombin (COAT)-activated platelets represent a subpopulation of activated platelets, which retain a coat of prohemostatic proteins and express phosphatidylserine on their surface. Dichotomous intracellular signaling generating procoagulant platelet activity instead of traditional aggregating endpoints is still not fully elucidated. It has been demonstrated that secondary messengers such as calcium and sodium play a critical role in platelet activation. Therefore, we developed a flow cytometric analysis to investigate intracellular ion fluxes simultaneously during generation of aggregating and procoagulant platelets. Human platelets were activated by convulxin-plus-thrombin. Cytosolic calcium, sodium, and potassium ion fluxes were visualized by specific ion probes and analyzed by flow cytometry. We observed high and prolonged intracellular calcium concentration, transient sodium increase, and fast potassium efflux in COAT platelets, whereas aggregating non-COAT platelets rapidly decreased their calcium content, maintaining higher cytosolic sodium, and experiencing lower and slower potassium depletion. Considering these antithetical patterns, we investigated the role of the sodium-calcium exchanger (NCX) during convulxin-plus-thrombin activation. NCX inhibitors, CBDMB and ORM-10103, dose-dependently reduced the global calcium mobilization induced by convulxin-plus-thrombin activation and dose-dependently prevented formation of procoagulant COAT platelets. Our data demonstrate that both NCX modes are used after convulxin-plus-thrombin-induced platelet activation. Non-COAT platelets use forward-mode NCX, thus pumping calcium out and moving sodium in, while COAT platelets rely on reverse NCX function, which pumps additional calcium into the cytosol, by extruding sodium. In conclusion, we described for the first time the critical and dichotomous role of NCX function during convulxin-plus-thrombin-induced platelet activation.

Abstract
Antiplatelet agents have considerable benefits in the treatment of thromboembolic diseases; however, these agents still have substantial limitations due to their severe side-effects. In this study, the antiplatelet activity of three newly synthesized saccharide based benzimidazole derivatives, M3BIM, Malto-BIM and Melibio-BIM, in collagen and thrombin-stimulated human platelets in vitro was examined. Among the compounds tested, only compound M3BIM exerted concentration (20-60 µM)-dependent inhibitory effects against collagen (1 µg/ml) and thrombin (0.01 U/ml)-induced washed human platelet aggregation. Moreover, at a concentration of 60 µM, M3BIM distinctly abolished collagen-induced adenosine triphosphate (ATP) release and intracellular Ca2+ mobilization. Additionally, this compound attenuated the collagen-induced phosphorylation of p47, a marker of the activation of protein kinase C (PKC) and p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK). However, Malto-BIM and Melibio-BIM were not effective in this regard. Moreover, the toxic effects of these compounds were evaluated using zebrafish embryo toxicity (ZET) assay, and the results revealed that all three compounds had no comparative cytotoxicity within the range of 25-200 µM. Overall, the results of this study provide evidence for the inhibitory effects of M3BIM on collagen-induced platelet aggregation in vitro compared to other imidazole derivatives. The presence of 1-imidazolyl moiety at one end with a longer chain length (three sugar moieties) may be mainly responsible for the observed effects of M3BIM. These results suggest that compound M3BIM may be used as a potential candidate for the treatment of aberrant platelet activation-related diseases as it inhibits the activation of p47 and p38 MAPK, and reduces ATP release and Ca2+ mobilization.

Abstract
Ca(2+)influx might occur through K(+)-dependent Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchanger operating in reverse mode (rNCKX). In a cellular model different from platelets, an interaction between canonical transient receptor potential cation (TRPC) channels and NCX has been found. The aim of this study was to verify whether the TRPC/NCKX interaction operates in human platelets. Our results showed that the diacylglycerol (DAG) analogue, 1-oleoyl-2-acetyl-sn-glycerol (OAG) induced rNCKX-mediated Ca(2+) influx through TRPC-mediated Na(+) influx. DAG-induced activation of TRPC/NCKX occurs independently of protein kinase C (PKC) activation, as PKC inhibitor did not modify OAG-mediated Ca(2+) influx. Moreover, as both rNCKX and TRPC inhibitors reduced OAG-induced platelet aggregation which, conversely, was increased by flufenamic acid, known to develop TRPC activity, it could be suggested that the TRPC/NCKX interaction has a role in OAG-dependent platelet aggregation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The Na(+) /Ca(2+) exchanger is a bi-directional transporter that plays an important role in maintaining the concentration of cytosolic Ca(2+) ([Ca(2+) ](i) ) of quiescent platelets and increasing it during activation with some, but not all, agonists. There are two classes of Na(+) /Ca(2+) exchangers: K(+) -independent Na(+) /Ca(2+) exchanger (NCX) and K(+) -dependent Na(+) /Ca(2+) exchanger (NCKX). Platelets have previously been shown to express NCKX1. However, initial studies from our laboratory suggest that NCX may also play a role in platelet activation. The objective of this study was to determine if the human platelet expresses functional NCXs. EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH RT-PCR, DNA sequencing and Western blot analysis were utilized to characterize the human platelet Na(+) /Ca(2+) exchangers. Their function during quiescence and collagen-induced activation was determined by measuring [Ca(2+) ](i) with calcium-green/fura-red in response to: changes in the Na(+) and K(+) gradient, NCX pharmacological inhibitors (CBDMB, KB-R7943 and SEA0400) and antibodies specific to extracellular epitopes of the exchangers. KEY RESULTS Human platelets express NCX1.3, NCX3.2 and NCX3.4. The NCXs operate in the Ca(2+) efflux mode in resting platelets and also during their activation with thrombin but not collagen. Collagen-induced increase in [Ca(2+) ](i) was reduced with the pharmacological inhibitors of NCX (CBDMB, KB-R7943 or SEA0400), anti-NCX1 and anti-NCX3. In contrast, anti-NCKX1 enhanced the collagen-induced increase in [Ca(2+) ](i) . CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS Human platelets express K(+) -independent Na(+) /Ca(2+) exchangers NCX1.3, NCX3.2 and NCX3.4. During collagen activation, NCX1 and NCX3 transiently reverse to promote Ca(2+) influx, whereas NCKX1 continues to operate in the Ca(2+) efflux mode to reduce [Ca(2+) ](i) .

Abstract
The caterpillar Lonomia obliqua is a venomous animal that causes numerous accidents, especially in southern Brazil, where it is considered a public health problem. The clinical manifestations include several haemostatic disturbances that lead to a hemorrhagic syndrome. Considering that platelets play a central role in hemostasis, in this work we investigate the effects of L. obliqua venomous secretion upon blood platelets responses in vitro. Results obtained shows that L. obliqua venom directly induces aggregation and ATP secretion in human washed platelets in a dose-dependent manner. Electron microscopy studies clearly showed that the venomous bristle extract was also able to produce direct platelets shape change and adhesion as well as activation and formation of platelet aggregates. Differently from other enzyme inhibitors, the venom-induced platelet aggregation was significatively inhibited by p-bromophenacyl bromide, a specific inhibitor of phospholipases A2. Additional experiments with different pharmacological antagonists indicate that the aggregation response triggered by the venom active components occurs through a calcium-dependent mechanism involving arachidonic acid metabolite(s) of the cyclooxygenase pathway and activation of phosphodiesterase 3A, an enzyme that leads to the consumption of intracellular cAMP content. It was additionally found that L. obliqua-induced platelet aggregation was independent of ADP release. Altogether, these findings are in line with the need for a better understanding of the complex hemorrhagic syndrome resulting from the envenomation caused by L. obliqua caterpillars, and can also give new insights into the management of its clinical profile.

Abstract
Recent work has demonstrated a role for Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchange in potentiation of the Ca(2+) entry elicited through the human platelet store-operated channel by controlling a Mn(2+)-impermeable Ca(2+) entry pathway. Here we demonstrate that this involves control over the secretion of dense granules by a Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchanger (NCX) and so autocrine signalling between platelets. NCX inhibition reduced dense granule secretion. The reduction in SOCE elicited by NCX inhibition could be reversed by the addition of uninhibited donor cells, their releasate alone, or exogenous ADP and 5-HT. The use of specific receptor antagonists indicated that ATP, ADP and 5-HT all played a role in NCX-dependent autocrine signalling between platelets following thapsigargin stimulation, by activating Mn(2+)-impermeable Ca(2+) entry pathways. These data provide further insight into the mechanisms underlying the known interrelationship between platelet Ca(2+) signalling and dense granule secretion, and suggest an important role for the NCX in potentiation of platelet activation via dense granule secretion and so autocrine signalling. Our results caution the interpretation of platelet Ca(2+) signalling studies involving pharmacological or other manipulations that do not assess possible effects on NCX activity and dense granule secretion.

Abstract
Glutamate is an excitatory neurotransmitter that binds to the kainate receptor, the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor, and the α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid (AMPA) receptor (AMPAR). Each receptor was first characterized and cloned in the central nervous system (CNS). Glutamate is also present in the periphery, and glutamate receptors have been identified in nonneuronal tissues, including bone, heart, kidney, pancreas, and platelets. Platelets play a central role in normal thrombosis and hemostasis, as well as contributing greatly to diseases such as stroke and myocardial infarction. Despite the presence of glutamate in platelet granules, the role of glutamate during hemostasis is unknown. We now show that activated platelets release glutamate, that platelets express AMPAR subunits, and that glutamate increases agonist-induced platelet activation. Furthermore, we demonstrate that glutamate binding to the AMPAR increases intracellular sodium concentration and depolarizes platelets, which are important steps in platelet activation. In contrast, platelets treated with the AMPAR antagonist CNQX or platelets derived from GluR1 knockout mice are resistant to AMPA effects. Importantly, mice lacking GluR1 have a prolonged time to thrombosis in vivo. Our data identify glutamate as a regulator of platelet activation, and suggest that the AMPA receptor is a novel antithrombotic target.

Abstract
Ion channels formed by canonical transient receptor potential (TRPC) proteins are considered to be key players in cellular Ca(2+) homeostasis. As permeation of Ca(2+) through TRPC homo- and/or heteromeric channels has been repeatedly demonstrated, analysis of the physiological role of TRPC proteins was so far based on the concept that these proteins form regulated Ca(2+) entry channels. The well-recognized lack of cation selectivity of TRPC channels and the ability to generate substantial monovalent conductances that govern membrane potential and cation gradients were barely appreciated as a physiologically relevant issue. Nonetheless, recent studies suggest monovalent, specifically Na(+) permeation through TRPC cation channels as an important event in TRPC signaling. TRPC-mediated Na(+) entry may be converted into a distinct pattern of cellular Ca(2+) signals by interaction with Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchanger proteins. This review discusses current concepts regarding the link between Na(+) entry through TRPC channels and cellular Ca(2+) signaling.

Abstract
The mechanism of collagen-induced human platelet activation was examined using Ca2+, Na+, and the pH-sensitive fluorescent dyes calcium green/fura red, sodium-binding benzofuran isophthalate, and 2',7'-bis(2-carboxyethyl)-5(6)-carboxyfluorescein. Administration of a moderate dose of collagen (10 microg/ml) to human platelets resulted in an increase in [Ca2+](i) and platelet aggregation. The majority of this increase in [Ca2+](i) resulted from the influx of calcium from the extracellular milieu via the Na+/Ca2+ exchanger (NCX) functioning in the reverse mode and was reduced in a dose-dependent manner by the NCX inhibitors 5-(4-chlorobenzyl)-2',4'-dimethylbenzamil (KD(50) = 4.7 +/- 1.1 microm) and KB-R7943 (KD(50) = 35.1 +/- 4.8 microm). Collagen-induced platelet aggregation was dependent on an increase in [Ca2+](i) and could be inhibited by chelation of intra- and extracellular calcium through the administration of 1,2-bis(2-aminophenoxy)ethane-N,N,N',N'-tetraacetic acid tetrakis(acetoxymethyl ester) (BAPTA-AM) and EGTA, respectively, or via the administration of BAPTA-AM to platelets suspended in no-Na+/HEPES buffer. Collagen induced an increase in [Ca2+](i) (23.2 +/- 7.6 mm) via the actions of thromboxane A(2) and, to a lesser extent, of the Na+/H+ exchanger. This study demonstrates that the collagen-induced increase in [Ca2+](i) is dependent on the concentration of Na+ in the extracellular milieu, indicating that the collagen-induced increase in [Ca2+](i) causes the reversal of the NCX, ultimately resulting in an increase in [Ca2+](i) and platelet aggregation.
