          Abstract

          We measured levels of platelet-derived microparticles (PMP), which have coagulative activity and are produced by platelet activation or physical stimulation, and CD62P/CD63-positive platelets in patients with diabetes mellitus to determine their clinical significance and effects on complications of diabetes including diabetic nephropathy. We also compared these levels before and after administration of the antiplatelet drug cilostazol. Plasma PMP and CD62P/CD63-positive platelet levels were significantly higher in patients with diabetes mellitus than normal controls. CD62P-positive platelet levels were significantly higher in patients with nephropathy than in patients without complications. After administration of cilostazol, PMP and CD62P/CD63-positive platelet levels were significantly decreased. The increases in platelet activity and its related procoagulant activity appear to account in part for the hypercoagulability observed in diabetes mellitus. Our findings suggest that activated platelets might play a role in the development of diabetic nephropathy. Furthermore, antiplatelet therapy with cilostazol for diabetic patients may be useful as antithrombin therapy including antiplatelet therapy, since it suppresses the production of intrinsic coagulants produced by platelet activation.

          Platelet-derived microparticles may influence the development of atherosclerosis in diabetes mellitus.

          S Nomura (1995)
          We investigated the association between low-density lipoprotein (LDL), triglycerides, and platelet activation in 18 patients with hypertension age 41-64 years and 18 with diabetes mellitus aged 43-70 years. Platelet P-selectin positivity and the microparticle level (indicators of activation) were both significantly higher in the diabetics than in healthy controls (P-selectin: 28.0% +/- 7.5% vs. 7.3% +/- 4.2%, P < 0.001; microparticles: 1900 +/- 966 vs. 526 +/- 158/10(4) platelets, P < 0.01). In contrast, there was no significant increase of either parameter in the patients with hypertension. Plasma microparticle levels were also significantly greater in the diabetics with high LDL levels than in those with low LDL levels (2375 +/- 949 vs. 1519 +/- 796/10(4) platelets, P < 0.05), and in those with high rather than low triglyceride levels (2188 +/- 845 vs. 1492 +/- 783/10(4) platelets, P < 0.05). However, platelet positivity for P-selectin was not significantly different between these two subgroups. Microparticle and P-selectin levels both showed no significant difference between the hypertensive patients with high and low LDL or triglyceride levels. These results suggest that platelet-derived microparticles may participate in the development or progression of atherosclerosis in patients with diabetes mellitus.

            Novel structurally distinct family of leucocyte surface glycoproteins including CD9, CD37, CD53 and CD63.

            C Vlcek, V Horejsí (1991)
            Several of the recently described leucocyte surface (glyco)-proteins with significant amino acid sequence similarity (human CD9, CD37, CD53, CD63, TAPA-1, CO-029 and R2 and several homologues of other species) are distinguished by the polypeptide chain apparently four times crossing the membrane. Although the biological role of none of these molecules is known, their structure, associations with other membrane components and the effects of specific monoclonal antibodies suggest that they may constitute a family of ion channels or other transport molecules.

              Purification of cyclic adenosine monophosphate phosphodiesterase from human platelets using new-inhibitor sepharose chromatography

              Umekawa Hayato, Tanaka Toshio, Kimura Yukio … (1984)
              Cilostamide derivatives are potent inhibitors of human platelet aggregation and selectively inhibit human platelet cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cyclic AMP) phosphodiesterase. N-Cyclohexyl-N-(2-hydroxybutyl)-5-[6-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-2-oxoquinolyl oxy)] -butyramide (OPC-13135) is one of these derivatives, and the concentration of OPC-13135 producing 50% inhibition of human platelet aggregation induced by 2 micrograms/ml collagen was 5 microM. On the other hand, the concentrations of OPC-13135 producing 50% inhibition of human platelet cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase and cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cyclic GMP) phosphodiesterase were 0.073 and 21.8 microM, respectively. We purified over 480-fold the soluble low Km form of cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase from human platelets, using OPC-13135 Sepharose column as a final step in the purification procedure. The purified protein has a molecular weight of 175,000, determined by gel filtration and is an acidic protein, as determined by isoelectric focussing (pI = 4.9). Kinetic measurements indicated that the enzyme protein had a Km value for the substrate cyclic AMP and cyclic GMP of 0.34 and 0.11 microM respectively, and a Vmax value of 85.3 and 19.8 nmole/min/mg protein, respectively. Ki value of the OPC-13135 for the enzyme was 0.015 microM and was of competitive fashion against cyclic AMP.
