Abstract
Since the late 1970s, there has been an alarming increase in the incidence of asthma and its morbidity and mortality. Acute obstruction and inflammation of allergic asthmatic airways are frequently caused by inhalation of exogenous substances such as allergens cross-linking IgE receptors expressed on the surface of the human lung mast cells (HLMC). The degree of constriction of human airways produced by identical amounts of inhaled allergens may vary from day to day and even hour to hour. Endogenous factors in the human mast cell (HMC)'s microenvironment during allergen exposure may markedly modulate the degranulation response. An increase in allergic responsiveness may significantly enhance bronchoconstriction and breathlessness. This review focuses on the role that the ubiquitous endogenous purine nucleotide, extracellular adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP), which is a component of the damage-associated molecular patterns, plays in mast cells' physiology. ATP activates P2 purinergic cell-surface receptors (P2R) to trigger signaling cascades resulting in heightened inflammatory responses. ATP is the most potent enhancer of IgE-mediated HLMC degranulation described to date. Current knowledge of ATP as it relates to targeted receptor(s) on HMC along with most recent studies exploring HMC post-receptor activation pathways are discussed. In addition, the reviewed studies may explain why brief, minimal exposures to allergens (e.g., dust, cat, mouse, and grass) can unpredictably lead to intense clinical reactions. Furthermore, potential therapeutic approaches targeting ATP-related enhancement of allergic reactions are presented.

Pharmaceuticals (Basel) 2023; 16:1047. [PMID: 37513958 PMCID: PMC10386017 DOI: 10.3390/ph16071047] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/28/2023] [Revised: 07/18/2023] [Accepted: 07/20/2023] [Indexed: 07/30/2023] Open
Abstract
Amitriptyline was first introduced as a medication to treat depression. Over time, this substance has been used to treat other conditions, such as gastrointestinal disorders, fibromyalgia, neuropathic pain, and analgesia, among others. However, there are no published studies that provide a broad view of the possible motivations that have led to changes in the use of amitriptyline. In this study, we have identified the landscape of use for amitriptyline based on knowledge mapping of the 100 most-cited articles about this drug. We searched Web of Science Core Collection without time and language restrictions. We obtained 14,446 results, but we only used the 100 most-cited articles that had amitriptyline as the object of study. We collected the following information from each article: authors, country of the corresponding authors, year of publication, citation count, citation density (number of citations per year), and keywords. In addition, we seek to map in the chosen articles study design and research findings. We found that since 1980, the use of amitriptyline has expanded beyond depression, moving to off-label use to treat a variety of diseases and conditions, including post-herpetic neuralgia, neuropathic pain, primary fibrosis, fibromyalgia, and migraine, can be considered a drug with more clinical applicability than its original clinical indication.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Thrombin (via PAR [protease-activated receptor]-1 and PAR-4) and ADP (via P2Y12 receptors) are potent endogenous platelet activators implicated in the development of cardiovascular disease. We aimed to assess whether platelet pathways alter with aging. METHODS We characterized platelet activity in community-dwelling volunteers (n=174) in the following age groups: (1) 20 to 30 (young); (2) 40 to 55 (middle-aged); (3) ≥70 years (elderly). Platelet activity was assessed by aggregometry; flow cytometry (surface markers [P-selectin: alpha granule release, CD63: dense granule release, PAC-1 (measure of conformationally active GPIIb/IIIa at the fibrinogen binding site): GPIIb/IIIa conformational activation] measured under basal conditions and after agonist stimulation [ADP, thrombin, PAR-1 agonist or PAR-4 agonist]); receptor cleavage and quantification; fluorometry; calcium flux; ELISA. RESULTS The elderly had higher basal platelet activation than the young, evidenced by increased expression of P-selectin, CD63, and PAC-1, which correlated with increasing inflammation (IL [interleukin]-1β/IL-6). The elderly demonstrated higher P2Y12 receptor density, with greater ADP-induced platelet aggregation (P<0.05). However, elderly subjects were resistant to thrombin, achieving less activation in response to thrombin (higher EC50) and to selective stimulation of both PAR-1 and PAR-4, with higher basal PAR-1/PAR-4 cleavage and less inducible PAR-1/PAR-4 cleavage (all P<0.05). Thrombin resistance was attributable to a combination of reduced thrombin orienting receptor GPIbα, reduced secondary ADP contribution to thrombin-mediated activation, and blunted calcium flux. D-Dimer, a marker of in situ thrombin generation, correlated with platelet activation in the circulation, ex vivo thrombin resistance, and circulating inflammatory mediators (TNF [tumor necrosis factor]-α/IL-6). CONCLUSIONS Aging is associated with a distinctive platelet phenotype of increased basal activation, ADP hyperreactivity, and thrombin resistance. In situ thrombin generation associated with systemic inflammation may be novel target to prevent cardiovascular disease in the elderly.

Abstract
Numerous studies have explored the suitability of biocompatible materials in regenerative medicine. Platelet concentrates are derived from centrifuged blood and are named according to their biological characteristics, such as platelet-rich plasma, platelet-rich fibrin and concentrated growth factor. Platelet concentrates have gained considerable attention in soft and hard tissue engineering. Indeed, multiple components of autologous platelet concentrates, such as growth factors, fibrin matrix and platelets, serve essential roles in wound healing. Current studies are focused on cutting-edge strategies to meet the requirements for tissue restoration by improving the properties of autologous platelet concentrates. In the present review, applications of platelet concentrates for tissue engineering are discussed, presenting a selection of recent advances and novel protocols. In addition, several aspects of these strategies, such as the advantages of lyophilized platelet concentrates and the combination of platelet concentrates with biomaterials, stem cells or drugs are discussed. The present review aims to summarize novel strategies using platelet concentrates to improve the outcomes of wound healing.

Abstract
ATP is a major energy source in the mammalian cells, but it is an extracellular chemical messenger acting on P2 purinergic receptors. A line of evidence has shown that ATP is released from many different types of cells including neurons, endothelial cells, and muscle cells. In this review, we described the distribution of P2 receptor subtypes in the cardiac cells and their physiological and pathological roles in the heart. So far, the effects of external application of ATP or its analogues, and those of UTP on cardiac contractility and rhythm have been reported. In addition, specific genetic alterations and pharmacological agonists and antagonists have been adopted to discover specific roles of P2 receptor subtypes including P2X4-, P2X7-, P2Y2- and P2Y6-receptors in cardiac cells under physiological and pathological conditions. Accumulated data suggest that P2X4 receptors may play a beneficial role in cardiac muscle function, and that P2Y2- and P2Y6-receptors can induce cardiac fibrosis. Recent evidence further demonstrates P2Y1 receptor and P2X4 receptor as important mechanical signaling molecules to alter membrane potential and Ca2+ signaling in atrial myocytes and their uneven expression profile between right and left atrium.

Abstract
Adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP) is found in every cell of the human body where it plays a critical role in cellular energetics and metabolism. ATP is released from cells under physiologic and pathophysiologic condition; extracellular ATP is rapidly degraded to adenosine 5'-diphosphate (ADP) and adenosine by ecto-enzymes (mainly, CD39 and CD73). Before its degradation, ATP acts as an autocrine and paracrine agent exerting its effects on targeted cells by activating cell surface receptors named P2 Purinergic receptors. The latter are expressed by different cell types in the lungs, the activation of which is involved in multiple pulmonary disorders. This succinct review summarizes the role of ATP in inflammation processes associated with these disorders including bronchoconstriction, cough, mechanical ventilation-induced lung injury and idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. All of these disorders still constitute unmet clinical needs. Therefore, the various ATP-signaling pathways in pulmonary inflammation constitute attractive targets for novel drug-candidates that would improve the management of patients with multiple pulmonary diseases.

Abstract
In 1960, Gustav Born was appointed to head the Department of Pharmacology at the Royal College of Surgeons in London. The next 13 years would prove to be the most productive in his scientific career and the most important in the development of the Department into an internationally respected research center. The advances in platelet biology were made possible by the evolution of the platelet aggregometer, brilliantly conceived and developed by Born and his team, into a robust and reliable scientific instrument, with which they, quite literally, revolutionized the study of platelet function. For the first time, the actions of agonists and antagonists could be quantified pharmacologically, and the biochemistry of aggregation analyzed, identifying two systems, cyclic nucleotides and phospholipid metabolism, as crucial to the understanding of the pathophysiology of human platelets. Recognizing the critical importance of the interplay between platelets, leucocytes and the vascular endothelium, in the formation and in the rupture of atheromatous plaques, his group also investigated aggregation in the microvasculature in vivo. Born's never-ending flow of ideas and enthusiasm for their exploration created an atmosphere of discovery in his group that matched that of his colleague, John Vane. It was a collaboration between these two teams that elucidated the mechanism of action of the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and established the prophylactic use of aspirin as an anti-thrombotic therapy - indeed, two of the most significant pharmacological discoveries of the twentieth century.

Abstract
Adenosine 5′-triphiosphate (ATP) is released from cells under physiologic and pathophysiologic conditions. Extracellular ATP acts as an autocrine and paracrine agent affecting various cell types by activating cell surface P2 receptors (P2R), which include trans-cell membrane cationic channels, P2XR, and G protein coupled receptors, P2YR. We have previously shown that ATP stimulates vagal afferent nerve terminals in the lungs by activating P2X2/3R. This action could lead to bronchoconstriction, cough and the local release of pro-inflammatory neuropeptides. In addition, ATP markedly enhances the IgE-dependent histamine release from human lung mast cells. Thus, we have proposed for the first time that extracellular ATP plays a mechanistic role in pulmonary pathophysiology in general and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and acute bronchoconstriction in asthma in particular. The present review examines whether ATP could also play a role in bradycardia and syncope in a subset of patients with pulmonary embolism.

Abstract
Inherited platelet function disorders (IPFD) have been assessed for more than 50 years by aggregation- and secretion-based tests. Several decision trees are available intending to standardize the investigation of IPFD. A large variability of approaches is still in use among the laboratories across the world. In spite of costly and lengthy laboratory evaluation, the results have been found inconclusive or negative in a significant part of patients having bleeding manifestations. Molecular investigation of newly identified IPFD has recently contributed to a better understanding of the complexity of platelet function. Once considered "classic" IPFDs, Glanzmann thrombasthenia and Bernard-Soulier syndrome have each had their pathophysiology reassessed and their diagnosis made more precise and informative. Megakaryopoiesis, platelet formation, and function have been found tightly interlinked, with several genes being involved in both inherited thrombocytopenias and impaired platelet function. Moreover, genetic approaches have moved from being used as confirmatory diagnostic tests to being tools for identification of genetic variants associated with bleeding disorders, even in the absence of a clear phenotype in functional testing. In this study, we aim to address some limits of the conventional tests used for the diagnosis of IPFD, and to highlight the potential contribution of recent molecular tools and opportunities to rethink the way we should approach the investigation of IPFD.

Abstract
There is abundant evidence that ATP (adenosine 5′-triphosphate) is released from a variety of cultured cells in response to mechanical stimulation. The release mechanism involved appears to be a combination of vesicular exocytosis and connexin and pannexin hemichannels. Purinergic receptors on cultured cells mediate both short-term purinergic signalling of secretion and long-term (trophic) signalling such as proliferation, migration, differentiation and apoptosis. We aim in this review to bring to the attention of non-purinergic researchers using tissue culture that the release of ATP in response to mechanical stress evoked by the unavoidable movement of the cells acting on functional purinergic receptors on the culture cells is likely to complicate the interpretation of their data.

Abstract
The clinical use of tissue engineering associated with cell therapy is considered a new alternative therapy for the repair of chronic lesions with potential application in different medical areas, mostly in orthopedic and dermatological diseases. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is a rich source of growth factors and cytokines important for wound healing. Adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ADSCs) have shown potential to accelerate the resolution of ulcers, to stimulate cell proliferation, and to benefit the quality of skin repair. This study aims to determine the effect of PRP and conditioned medium (CM) from ADSC on fibroblast and keratinocyte proliferation in vitro. Migration and proliferation assays were performed to evaluate the growth of fibroblasts and keratinocytes in the presence of PRP, CM, and CM + PRP. Significant proliferative stimulation was observed after 48 h of culture (p < 0.05) on mean absorbance of fibroblasts cultured with 10 and 25 % PRP, 100 % CM, and 25 % PRP + 25 % CM, if compared with control. Keratinocyte proliferation was stimulated after 48 h in cultures with 25, 50, and 100 % CM, and growth was compared with controls. The migration assay detected a significant migratory stimulus in fibroblasts cultured with 10 % PRP + 10 % CM after 48 h. These in vitro results suggest that PRP and ADSC have therapeutic potential for healing and re-epithelialization of chronic wounds in vivo.

Abstract
Ligand-gated ion channels on the cell surface are directly activated by the binding of an agonist to their extracellular domain and often referred to as ionotropic receptors. P2X receptors are ligand-gated non-selective cation channels with significant permeability to Ca(2+) whose principal physiological agonist is ATP. This chapter focuses on the mechanisms by which P2X1 receptors, a ubiquitously expressed member of the family of ATP-gated channels, can contribute to cellular responses in non-excitable cells. Much of the detailed information on the contribution of P2X1 to Ca(2+) signalling and downstream functional events has been derived from the platelet. The underlying primary P2X1-generated signalling event in non-excitable cells is principally due to Ca(2+) influx, although Na(+) entry will also occur along with membrane depolarization. P2X1 receptor stimulation can lead to additional Ca(2+) mobilization via a range of routes such as amplification of G-protein-coupled receptor-dependent Ca(2+) responses. This chapter also considers the mechanism by which cells generate extracellular ATP for autocrine or paracrine activation of P2X1 receptors. For example cytosolic ATP efflux can result from opening of pannexin anion-permeable channels or following damage to the cell membrane. Alternatively, ATP stored in specialised secretory vesicles can undergo quantal release via the process of exocytosis. Examples of physiological or pathophysiological roles of P2X1-dependent signalling in non-excitable cells are also discussed, such as thrombosis and immune responses.

Abstract
Design of biological signal-responsive biomaterials is essential for controlling cell-cell and cell-matrix interactions. Herein, we developed a dynamic hydrogel to control cell adhesion with biological signals in a cellular microenvironment. The basic principle was based on using nucleic acid aptamer to recognize cell signalling and control the display of bioligands on the hydrogel. Not only exogenous signalling but also endogenous signalling secreted by surrounding cells could activate the dynamic scaffold and tune the cell adhesion state. Since diverse aptamers have been developed, our design can be extended to multiple biological inputs. The biochemical signal-responsive system will greatly enhance the understanding of complex biological processes as well as the ability to manipulate cellular behaviors.

Strategies for quantitation of endogenous adenine nucleotides in human plasma using novel ion-pair hydrophilic interaction chromatography coupled with tandem mass spectrometry. J Chromatogr A 2013; 1325:129-36. [PMID: 24377733 DOI: 10.1016/j.chroma.2013.12.017] [Citation(s) in RCA: 35] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/30/2013] [Revised: 12/03/2013] [Accepted: 12/04/2013] [Indexed: 11/25/2022]
Abstract
We present here a novel and highly sensitive ion-pair hydrophilic interaction chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (IP-HILIC-MS/MS) method for quantitation of highly polar acid metabolites like adenine nucleotides. A mobile phase based on diethylamine (DEA) and hexafluoro-2-isopropanol (HFIP) and an aminopropyl (NH2) column were applied for a novel chromatographic separation for the determination of AMP, ADP and ATP in biological matrices. This novel IP-HILIC mechanism could be hypothesized by the ion-pairing reagent (DEA) in the mobile phase forming neutral and hydrophilic complexes with the analytes of polar organic acids. The IP-HILIC-MS/MS assay for adenine nucleotides was successfully validated with satisfactory linearity, sensitivity, accuracy, reproducibility and matrix effects. The lower limit of quantitation (LLOQ) at 2.00ng/mL obtained for ATP showed a least 10-fold higher sensitivity than previous LC-MS/MS assays except nano-LC-MS/MS assay. In summary, this novel IP-HILIC-MS/MS assay provides a sensitive method for nucleotides bioanalysis and shows great potential to determine a number of organic acids in biological matrices.

Abstract
Cytolysins inflict cell damage by forming pores in the plasma membrane. The Na(+) conductivity of these pores results in an ion influx that exceeds the capacity of the Na(+) /K(+) -pump to extrude Na(+) . This net load of intracellular osmolytes results in swelling and eventual lysis of the attacked cell. Many nucleated cells have the capacity to reduce the potential damage of pore-forming proteins, whereas erythrocytes have been regarded as essentially defenceless against cytolysin-induced cell damage. This review addresses how autocrine/paracrine signalling and the cells intrinsic volume regulation markedly influence the fate of the cell after membrane insertion of cytolysins. Moreover, it regards the various steps that may explain the relative large degree of diversity between cell types and species as well as highlights some of the current gaps in the mechanistic understanding of cytolysin-induced cell injury.

Abstract
ADP plays critical signaling roles in the vascular endothelium. ADP receptors are targeted by several cardiovascular drugs, yet the intracellular pathways modulated by ADP are incompletely understood. These studies have identified important roles for the phosphatase PTEN in ADP-dependent modulation of the endothelial isoform of nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) as well as of lipid and protein kinase pathways in endothelial cells. We find that ADP-promoted eNOS activation as well as phosphorylation of p38 MAPK are enhanced by siRNA-mediated PTEN knockdown. However, the increase in ADP-dependent eNOS activation promoted by PTEN knockdown is abrogated by siRNA-mediated knockdown of p38 MAPK. These findings indicate that PTEN tonically suppresses both p38 phosphorylation as well as ADP-stimulated eNOS activity. A key enzymatic activity of PTEN is its role as a lipid phosphatase, catalyzing the dephosphorylation of phosphoinositol-3,4,5-trisphosphate (PIP3) to phosphoinositol-4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2). We performed biochemical analyses of cellular phospholipids in endothelial cells to show that siRNA-mediated PTEN knockdown leads to a marked increase in PIP3. Because these complex lipids activate the small GTPase Rac1, we explored the role of PTEN in ADP-modulated Rac1 activation. We used a FRET biosensor for Rac1 to show that ADP-dependent Rac1 activation is blocked by siRNA-mediated PTEN knockdown. We then exploited a FRET biosensor for PIP3 to show that the striking ADP-dependent increase in intracellular PIP3 is entirely blocked by PTEN knockdown. These studies identify a key role for PTEN in the modulation of lipid mediators involved in ADP receptor-regulated endothelial signaling pathways involving eNOS activation in vascular endothelial cells.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In sepsis, extracellular ATP, secreted by activated platelets and leukocytes, may contribute to the crosstalk between hemostasis and inflammation. Previously, we showed that, in addition to their role in platelet activation, ATP-gated P2X(1) ion channels are involved in promoting neutrophil chemotaxis. OBJECTIVES To elucidate the contribution of P2X(1) ion channels to sepsis and the associated disturbance of hemostasis. METHODS We used P2X(1) (-/-) mice in a model of lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced sepsis. Hemostasis and inflammation parameters were analyzed together with outcome. Mechanisms were further studied ex vivo with mouse and human blood or isolated neutrophils and monocytes. RESULTS P2X(1) (-/-) mice were more susceptible to LPS-induced shock than wild-type mice, despite normal cytokine production. Plasma levels of thrombin-antithrombin complexes were higher, thrombocytopenia was worsened, and whole blood coagulation time was markedly reduced, pointing to aggravated hemostasis disturbance in the absence of P2X(1). However, whole blood platelet aggregation occurred normally, and P2X(1) (-/-) macrophages displayed normal levels of total tissue factor activity. We found that P2X(1) (-/-) neutrophils produced higher amounts of reactive oxygen species. Increased amounts of myeloperoxidase were released in the blood of LPS-treated P2X(1) (-/-) mice, and circulating neutrophils and monocytes expressed higher levels of CD11b. Neutrophil accumulation in the lungs was also significantly augmented, as was lipid peroxidation in the liver. Desensitization of P2X(1) ion channels led to increased activation of human neutrophils and enhanced formation of platelet-leukocyte aggregates. CONCLUSIONS P2X(1) ion channels play a protective role in endotoxemia by negatively regulating systemic neutrophil activation, thereby limiting the oxidative response, coagulation, and organ damage.

Abstract
The purinergic 1 receptor (P2RY1) has been implicated in development of heart disease and in individual pharmacodynamic response to anticoagulant therapies. However, the association of polymorphisms in the P2RY1 gene with myocardial infarction (MI), and its associated conditions, has yet to be reported in the literature. We evaluated seven known SNPs in P2RY1 for association with MI in a Latvian population. Seven independent parameters that are related to MI [body mass index (BMI), type 2 diabetes (T2D), angina pectoris, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, atrial fibrillation and heart failure] were investigated. No significant association with MI was observed for any of the polymorphisms. Those SNPs for which the P value was close to significance were located in coding or promoter regions. Intriguingly, carriers of the minor allele in the P2RY1 gene locus showed a tendency towards higher onset age for MI, suggesting a possible protective effect of these SNPs against MI or their contribution in progression as opposed to onset. Finally, a linkage disequilibrium (LD) plot was generated for these polymorphisms in the Latvian population. The results of this study suggest that the role of P2RY1 in individuals from Latvian population is likely to be principally involved in platelet aggregation and thromboembolic diseases, and not as a significant contributing factor to the global metabolic syndrome.

Abstract
ADP responses underlie therapeutic approaches to many cardiovascular diseases, and ADP receptor antagonists are in widespread clinical use. The role of ADP in platelet biology has been extensively studied, yet ADP signaling pathways in endothelial cells remain incompletely understood. We found that ADP promoted phosphorylation of the endothelial isoform of nitric-oxide synthase (eNOS) at Ser(1179) and Ser(635) and dephosphorylation at Ser(116) in cultured endothelial cells. Although eNOS activity was stimulated by both ADP and ATP, only ADP signaling was significantly inhibited by the P2Y(1) receptor antagonist MRS 2179 or by knockdown of P2Y(1) using small interfering RNA (siRNA). ADP activated the small GTPase Rac1 and promoted endothelial cell migration. siRNA-mediated knockdown of Rac1 blocked ADP-dependent eNOS Ser(1179) and Ser(635) phosphorylation, as well as eNOS activation. We analyzed pathways known to regulate eNOS, including phosphoinositide 3-kinase/Akt, ERK1/2, Src, and calcium/calmodulin-dependent kinase kinase-beta (CaMKKbeta) using the inhibitors wortmannin, PD98059, PP2, and STO-609, respectively. None of these inhibitors altered ADP-modulated eNOS phosphorylation. In contrast, siRNA-mediated knockdown of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) inhibited ADP-dependent eNOS Ser(635) phosphorylation and eNOS activity but did not affect eNOS Ser(1179) phosphorylation. Importantly, the AMPK enzyme inhibitor compound C had no effect on ADP-stimulated eNOS activity, despite completely blocking AMPK activity. CaMKKbeta knockdown suppressed ADP-stimulated eNOS activity, yet inhibition of CaMKKbeta kinase activity using STO-609 failed to affect eNOS activation by ADP. These data suggest that the expression, but not the kinase activity, of AMPK and CaMKKbeta is necessary for ADP signaling to eNOS.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Earlier studies have suggested that platelet-rich plasma (PRP) enhances oral wound healing because of its concentrated growth factors. Few studies have investigated whether negative regulators exist in the PRP and influence its biological effects on human wound healing. The aim of this study was to investigate whether PRP contains an angiogenesis inhibitor, thrombospondin-1 (TSP-1), and whether this factor negatively affects human cells associated with oral healing in vitro. STUDY DESIGN Using centrifugation, platelet-poor plasma (PPP) and PRP were obtained sequentially from 20 volunteers. We used an Alamar Blue assay to compare the proliferation rates of various oral cells, cocultured for 6 days with different concentrations of PRP and PPP. The levels of TSP-1 in PRP were estimated using ELISA. Finally, we tested the antiproliferative effect of purified TSP-1 protein on oral cell cultures. RESULTS After 6 days of incubation, there were significantly more cells in the low-PRP-concentration group (<5%) and fewer cells in the high-PRP-concentration group (15%-30%). The ELISA showed that the quantities of TSP-1 were approximately 183.3 +/- 21.6 microg/mL in PRP lysate and 9.7 +/- 1.6 microg/mL in the supernatant of the 30% PRP gel. Serial concentrations of exogenous TSP-1, corresponding to those of the 30% PRP gel, dose-dependently inhibited oral cell proliferation. CONCLUSION Within the limits of this study, the proliferation of oral cells significantly decreased when treated with high concentrations of PRP. Abundant secretion of TSP-1 from concentrated PRP may contribute to the antiproliferative effect.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Human plasma ATP concentration is reported in many studies as roughly 1000 nmol/L. The present study tested the hypothesis that the measured plasma ATP concentration is lower if ATP release from formed blood elements is inhibited during blood sample processing. A second hypothesis was that pretreatment with aspirin to inhibit platelets would reduce the measured plasma concentration of ATP. METHODS Blood was sampled from the antecubital vein in 20 healthy individuals 30 and 60 min after ingestion of aspirin (325 mg) or placebo. Aliquots of each blood sample were added to the usual EDTA/saline solution to inhibit ATP catabolism, or to a new stabilizing solution designed to both stop ATP catabolism and inhibit ATP release from blood elements. The stabilizing solution contained NaCl, EDTA, tricine buffer, KCl, nitrobenzylthioinosine, forskolin, and isobutylmethylxanthine. Plasma ATP was measured with the luciferin-luciferase assay with standard additions in each sample to determine ATP content. Hemoglobin concentration was used as an index of sample hemolysis, and the plasma ATP concentration was corrected for the hemolysis component. RESULTS Aspirin pretreatment had no effect on plasma ATP concentrations. However, use of the stabilizing solution resulted in mean (SD) ATP concentrations 8-fold lower than the use of EDTA alone [28 (16) vs 236 (201) nmol/L; P <0.001]. CONCLUSION When precautions are taken to inhibit ATP release from blood elements during sample preparation, human venous plasma ATP concentration is much lower than previously reported.

Abstract
The immunosuppressive agents, cyclosporin (CsA) and tacrolimus (FK506), display cardioprotective activities. The mechanism would consist on the inhibition of the enzyme, adenosine kinase (AK), leading to an increase in adenosine (ADO) levels. ADO, inosine (INO) and nucleotide plasma levels were measured in kidney transplant recipients before and 1, 2, 4, 6 and 8 h after the administration of CsA or FK506. After CsA and FK506 administration, ADO plasma levels significantly increased, reaching a peak level after 2 h (483 +/- 124 and 429 +/- 96 nm, respectively), and then progressively declined. Calculated peak values (t(max)) of ADO were slightly delayed with respect to those of CsA and FK506. Treatment with rapamycin did not influence the phenomenon. The dynamic profile of plasma changes of ADO, nucleotides and INO were consistent with the inhibition of the enzyme, AK. ADO increase may be clinically relevant in terms of anti-ischaemic, tissue protecting, and immunosuppressive activities as well as in terms of nephrotoxicity.

Abstract
Endothelial as well as mesangial cells show enhanced activity of ecto-apyrase following pro-inflammatory stimulation in vitro. Since this ecto-enzyme appears to be able to regulate plasma hemopexin, which latter molecule plays a role in the pathogenesis of corticosteroid responsive nephrotic syndrome, the question was raised whether glucocorticoids are potentially able to downregulate ecto-apyrase activity of these cells. Therefore, cell cultures of endothelial or mesangial were stimulated with or without lipopolysaccharide (10 ng/ml). Parallel cultures were supplemented with prednisolone with or without the glucocorticoid receptor antagonist mifepristone in various concentrations. After 24 h, cytospins were prepared and cytochemically stained for ecto-apyrase activity. mRNA for apyrase of these cells was detected using reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). Apyrase activity of either cells or soluble apyrase (0.16 U/ml buffer) with or without supplementation of prednisolone were biochemically assayed for their phosphatase activity. The results show significantly decreased ecto-apyrase activity of lipopolysaccharide-stimulated cells after treatment with prednisolone as compared to non-prednisolone-treated cells. Preincubation with mifepristone did not inhibit the effect of prednisolone. Identical mRNA signals for apyrase were found in prednisolone and non-prednisolone-treated cells. Interestingly, soluble apyrase also showed a significant decrease of activity following preincubation with prednisolone. It is concluded that prednisolone is able to downregulate ecto-apyrase of stimulated endothelial or mesangial cells, which may potentially inhibit the conversion of hemopexin to its pro-inflammatory isoform. As blocking of the cytosolic glucocorticoid receptor showed no effect upon the prednisolone action, whereas prednisolone is able to affect soluble apyrase per se, it is felt that this particular action of prednisolone may (at least partly) be mediated through a non-genomic pathway.

Abstract
The platelet surface membrane possesses three P2 receptors activated by extracellular adenosine nucleotides; one member of the ionotropic receptor family (P2X(1)) and two members of the G-protein-coupled receptor family (P2Y(1) and P2Y(12)). P2Y(1) and P2Y(12) receptors have firmly established roles in platelet activation during thrombosis and haemostasis, whereas the importance of the P2X(1) receptor has been more controversial. However, recent studies have demonstrated that P2X(1) receptors can generate significant functional platelet responses alone and in synergy with other receptor pathways. In addition, studies in transgenic animals indicate an important role for P2X(1) receptors in platelet activation, particularly under conditions of shear stress and thus during arterial thrombosis. This review discusses the background behind discovery of P2X(1) receptors in platelets and their precursor cell, the megakaryocyte, and how signalling via these ion channels may participate in platelet activation.

Abstract
The role of P1 receptors and P2Y1 receptors in coronary vasodilator responses to adenine nucleotides was examined in the isolated guinea pig heart. Bolus arterial injections of nucleotides were made in hearts perfused at constant pressure. Peak increase in flow was measured before and after addition of purinoceptor antagonists. Both the P1 receptor antagonist 8-(p-sulfophenyl)theophylline and adenosine deaminase inhibited adenosine vasodilation. AMP-induced vasodilation was inhibited by P1 receptor blockade but not by adenosine deaminase or by the selective P2Y1 antagonist N6-methyl-2'-deoxyadenosine 3',5'-bisphosphate (MRS 2179). ADP-induced vasodilation was moderately inhibited by P1 receptor blockade and greatly inhibited by combined P1 and P2Y1 blockade. ATP-induced vasodilation was antagonized by P1 blockade but not by adenosine deaminase. Addition of P2Y1 blockade to P1 blockade shifted the ATP dose-response curve further rightward. It is concluded that in this preparation ATP-induced vasodilation results primarily from AMP stimulation of P1 receptors, with a smaller component from ATP or ADP acting on P2Y1 receptors. ADP-induced vasodilation is largely due to P2Y1 receptors, with a smaller contribution by AMP or adenosine acting via P1 receptors. AMP responses are mediated solely by P1 receptors. Adenosine contributes very little to vasodilation resulting from bolus intracoronary injections of ATP, ADP, or AMP.

Abstract
The goal of this study was to identify the most important variables affecting bioluminescent ATP, ADP and AMP measurements in plasma and to develop an assay that takes these variables into account. Blood samples were drawn from conscious dogs. A 'stop solution' containing EDTA was prepared, which greatly retarded plasma ATP degradation by chelating Mg(+2) and Ca(+2) that are co-factors for many ATPases. Stop solution and blood were mixed using a two-syringe withdrawal system. Samples were centrifuged twice in order to remove red blood cells, and ATP was measured in the supernatant using the firefly luciferase assay. Sample pH was adjusted to the optimal range (7.75-7.95) and Mg(2+) (necessary for the luciferase reaction) was added back to the sample within the luminometer 2 s prior to luciferase addition. Four assay tubes were prepared for each plasma sample, containing standard additions of 0-15 pmol added ATP, in order to quantify native plasma ATP content. In separate plasma/stop solution samples ADP + ATP was measured after converting ADP to ATP via the pyruvate kinase reaction, and AMP + ADP + ATP was measured after addition of both myokinase and pyruvate kinase. Addition of forskolin and isobutylmethylxanthine (IBMX) to the stop solution to inhibit platelets resulted in lower ATP concentrations. Measurement of ATP and haemoglobin from lysed erythrocytes revealed that haemolysis exerts a strong influence on plasma ATP concentration that must be taken into account.

Abstract
In recent years, significant progress has been made in our understanding of the pathophysiology behind obstructive airway diseases in general and asthma in particular; this knowledge, however, has not translated to major breakthroughs in the treatment of these disorders. Current therapeutic options are less than optimal and frequently are associated with systemic adverse effects. Recent studies indicate that endogenous purine nucleotides, adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP) in particular, could play a mechanistic role in obstructive airway diseases through their actions on multiple cell types relevant to these disorders, including mast cells, eosinophils, dendritic cells, and neurons. The pharmacologic modulation of ATP signal transduction in these cells represents an attractive new therapeutic target.

Abstract
Three acidic phospholipases A2 from Indian cobra (Naja naja naja) venom inhibited platelet aggregation in platelet rich plasma induced separately by ADP, collagen and epinephrine with different potencies. The order of inhibition was epinephrine > collagen > ADP. They did not inhibit platelet aggregation induced by arachidonic acid (10 microM). The inhibition was dependent on concentration of the protein and the time of incubation of the phospholipases A2 with platelet rich plasma. Parabromophenacyl bromide modified PLA2 enzymes lost their enzymatic activity as well as platelet aggregation inhibition activity suggesting the involvement of catalytic function in platelet aggregation inhibitory activity.

Abstract
ATP, besides an intracellular energy source, is an agonist when applied to a variety of different cells including cardiomyocytes. Sources of ATP in the extracellular milieu are multiple. Extracellular ATP is rapidly degraded by ectonucleotidases. Today ionotropic P2X(1--7) receptors and metabotropic P2Y(1,2,4,6,11) receptors have been cloned and their mRNA found in cardiomyocytes. On a single cardiomyocyte, micromolar ATP induces nonspecific cationic and Cl(-) currents that depolarize the cells. ATP both increases directly via a G(s) protein and decreases Ca(2+) current. ATP activates the inward-rectifying currents (ACh- and ATP-activated K(+) currents) and outward K(+) currents. P2-purinergic stimulation increases cAMP by activating adenylyl cyclase isoform V. It also involves tyrosine kinases to activate phospholipase C-gamma to produce inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate and Cl(-)/HCO(3)(-) exchange to induce a large transient acidosis. No clear correlation is presently possible between an effect and the activation of a given P2-receptor subtype in cardiomyocytes. ATP itself is generally a positive inotropic agent. Upon rapid application to cells, ATP induces various forms of arrhythmia. At the tissue level, arrhythmia could be due to slowing of electrical spread after both Na(+) current decrease and cell-to-cell uncoupling as well as cell depolarization and Ca(2+) current increase. In as much as the information is available, this review also reports analog effects of UTP and diadenosine polyphosphates.
