Mouse and human platelet (2×108 platelets/ml) aggregation was performed with washed platelets using a Chrono-log Model 700 Whole Blood/Optical Lumi-Aggregometer with AGGRO/LINK software (Chrono-log), stirring at 1200 rpm at 37°C. Adenosine diphosphate (ADP) induced aggregation was performed in the presence of human fibrinogen (0.5mg/ml, Sigma-Aldrich). Agonists were used at concentrations indicated: ADP (Chrono-log), Collagen (Chrono-log), thrombin (Roche), U46619 (Cayman Chemical Company).

Gel-filtered murine platelets were used to measure the platelet aggregation in response to thrombin. Platelets were diluted to the final concentration of 5 × 10 7 platelets/mL in a 300-μL reaction volume, which contains 295 μL of gel-filtered platelets and 5 μL agonist. Platelet aggregation was recorded using the CHRONO-LOG Model 700 Whole Blood/Optical Lumi-Aggregometer paired with AGGRO/LINK 8 program software (Chrono-log Corporation).

Platelet Aggregation Assay Methodology

For in vitro aggregation washed platelets (300.000 cells μL−1) were pre treated with antioxidants/inhibitors at 37°C for 10 min in the presence of apyrase VII 10 U mL−1 and ASA 100 μM. Platelets were transferred into cuvettes and incubated with CaCl2 1 mM and MgSO4 1 mM for 1 min at 37°C under continuous stirring at 1000 rpm. Platelet aggregation was monitored for 5 min after the addition of the agonist, using the Born’s turbidimetric method in a four channel aggregometer (APACT 4004, Labitech and Chrono-log Model 700 Whole Blood/Optical Lumi-Aggregometer, Chrono-Log Corp.). The rate of platelet aggregation was calculated as change in percentage of transmitted light (%T), according to Born and Cross (1963) (link). For the ex vivo experiments, aggregation tests were performed using PRP in the presence/absence of apyrase VII 10 U mL−1 with platelet count adjusted at 300.000 platelets μL−1.

Simultaneous Measurement of ATP-Release and Platelet Aggregation

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For simultaneous measurement of the adenosine triphosphate-release and aggregation WT and reeler platelets, the CHRONO-LOG Model 700 Whole Blood/Optical Lumi Aggregometer (CHRONO-LOG Corp) was used. A total of 1×10 5 platelets/μL in presence of CaCl 2 (2 mmol/L) and fibrinogen (70 μg/mL) were measured for each sample. The warmed (37°C) platelet suspension was put into CHRONO-LOG cuvettes (312), stirred at 1000 rpm, and incubated with luciferase (0.2 μmol/L) for 2 minutes. Then, the platelets were treated with indicated agonists and inhibitors. The duration of the aggregation measurement was fixed at 10 minutes.

Platelet Aggregation Evaluation by Optical Lumiaggregometry

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Platelet aggregometry was performed using whole-blood optical lumiaggregometry (Model 700 Whole Blood/Optical Lumi-aggregometer, CHRONO-LOG). Maximal platelet aggregation using electrical impedance in whole-blood samples was determined after stimulation by various platelet agonists under conditions of continuous stirring (1200 rpm).19

Evaluating Antiplatelet Therapy Response

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Impedance aggregometry was performed to determine whether rabbits appropriately responded to dual antiplatelet therapy. Approximately 5 ml of whole blood collected from the butterfly catheter was transferred into 3.2% sodium citrate collection tubes (BD Vacutainer) and inverted several times to deter clotting. Samples were run within 3 hours of collection as per the manufacturer's guidelines. To test for platelet response to ASA and clopidogrel, 500 µl of blood was diluted with 500 µl of 0.9% saline in a disposable cuvette with a siliconized stir bar. Collagen (1-5 µg/ml) and adenosine diphosphate (5-10 µM) were subsequently added to the sample of whole blood to test for responsiveness to ASA and clopidogrel, respectively. Samples were then analyzed using a Model 700 Whole Blood/Optical Lumi-Aggregometer (Chrono-Log Corp.). The aggregometer was set to 37°C, a gain of 0.01 times, and a speed of 1200 RPM.

Platelet Aggregation Assay with Vaa-SP-VX

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and platelet-poor plasma (PPP) were prepared as described in Leonardi et al. [42 (link)]. To 250 μL of PRP, 25 μL of VaaSP-VX solution was added, resulting in a final concentration of 1 µM VaaSP-VX; it was then pre-incubated for 5 min at 37 °C. In the control experiment, 25 μL of water was added to 250 μL of PRP. Twenty-five microliters of collagen solution (DiaMed, Cressier,, Switzerland), giving a final concentration of 10 μg/mL; ristocetin (Chrono-Log Corporation, Havertown, PA, USA), resulting in a final concentration of 1 mg/mL; or ADP (Chrono-Log Corporation, USA) at a final concentration of 10 μM, were lastly added and the change in the optical density was monitored for 5 min using a Model 700 Whole Blood/Optical Lumi-Aggregometer (Chrono-Log Corporation, Havertown, PA, USA). The cuvette containing PRP corresponded to 0% light transmission and the cuvette with PPP to 100% light transmission. Blood was donated by healthy human volunteers according to permission no. 53/08/11 of the National Medical Ethics Committee of the Republic of Slovenia.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
