Platelet Aggregation Analysis Protocol

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Platelet aggregation was performed on a Chronolog aggregometer (Chrono-Log Corp., PA, USA) as previously described [31 (link),32 (link)]. Briefly, fresh PRP prepared from subjects was stimulated by ADP or collagen at baseline, at 6 weeks, and at 12 weeks. Platelet aggregation was evaluated on a Chronolog aggregometer (Chrono-Log Corp., PA, USA) in PRP (3.0 × 108 platelets/mL) at 37 °C with a sample stir speed of 1000 rpm, and the change in light transmission was monitored and recorded for at least 6 minutes.

Example 12

One hour following p.o. dosing with a test compound whole blood is collected from male beagle dogs in a 5 mL Vacutainer with exogenous heparin (5 U/mL) added to the Vacutainer. Aggregation studies are evaluated by using a whole blood Aggregometer (Chronolog Corp.). Briefly, whole blood (400 μL) is added to saline (600 μL) with constant stirring and activated with 5 μg of Collagen (Chronolog Corp.). The serotonin response is obtained by adding 5-HT (Sigma) to a final concentration of 2.5 μM.

Results:

Selected compounds are tested for anti-platelet aggregation activity after single bolus oral dosing. The dose that affords maximal inhibition of 5-HT amplified platelet aggregation is identified and used for comparison.

Ex-Vivo Dog Whole Blood Aggregation

One hour following PO dosing with a test compound whole blood was collected from male beagle dogs in a 5 mL vacutainer with exogenous heparin (5 U/mL) added to vacutainer. Aggregation studies were evaluated by using whole blood Aggregometer (Chronolog Corp.). Briefly, whole blood (400 uL) was added to saline (600 uL) with constant stirring and activated with 5 ug of Collagen (Chronolog Corp.). The serotonin response was obtained by adding 5-HT (Sigma) to final concentration of 2.5 μM. Results: Selected compounds were tested for antiplatelet aggregation activity after single bolus oral dosing. The dose that afforded maximal inhibition of 5-HT amplified platelet aggregation was identified and used for comparison.

Quantification of Platelet Secretion

P-selectin release from the α-granules was quantified by flow cytometry as described earlier [26 (link)]. Secretion of ATP from the dense granules was assessed by a luminescence method using a luciferin/luciferase kit from Chrono-Log Corporation [23 (link)]. The luciferin/luciferase reagent was added to platelets 1 min prior to addition of collagen-related peptide (CRP) or thrombin. Platelet aggregation was monitored by a standard optical density method [27 (link)] using an Aggregometer from Chrono-Log Corporation.

Platelets Aggregation Assay with G-Ro

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Washed human platelets (108/mL) were preincubated with or without G-Ro in the reaction system containing 2mM of CaCl2 for 3 min at 37°C, then stimulated with thrombin (0.05 U/mL). The aggregation was performed for 5 min using an aggregometer (Chrono-Log Corporation, Havertown, PA, USA) at a constant stirring speed of 1,000 rpm. Each aggregation rate was determined as an increase in light transmission. G-Ro was dissolved in platelet suspension buffer (pH 6.9), and suspension buffer was used as the reference (transmission 0)

Platelet Aggregation Monitoring Protocol

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Platelet aggregation was monitored by measuring light transmission through the stirred suspension of washed platelets (3 × 108/ml) at 37°C using a Chronolog aggregometer. Platelet aggregation was triggered by adding fibrillar collagen, convulxin, ADP, or thrombin. Representative traces for aggregation were obtained from at least three independent experiments.

Platelet Aggregation Assay Protocol

The in vitro platelet aggregation study was performed according to a previously reported method 17, 18. Platelet‐rich plasma (PRP) was incubated with the indicated concentration of each compound in DMSO for 1, 3, 5 or 10 min. They were subsequently stimulated by U46619 (2 μM) in 0.9% saline solution or collagen (1 μg/ml) at 37°C for 5 min. Platelet aggregation was recorded using an aggregometer (Chronolog, Havertown, PA, USA). For the ex vivo aggregation assay, male mice were fasted overnight and the indicated concentration of each compound in DMSO was administered by intravenous (i.v.) injection. After 24 hrs, PRP (109 platelets/ml) in a volume of 240 μl was incubated at 37°C for 1.5 min. in the aggregometer under continuous stirring at 1000 r.p.m. and subsequently stimulated with U46619 (2 μM). Platelet aggregation was recorded as described above.

Platelet Aggregation and Spike Protein

Platelets (2.5 × 108 platelets per mL) were incubated with 2 μg/mL spike protein for 10 min, then stimulated with different agonists. To explore the effect of CoQ10 on spike protein-potentiated platelet aggregation, gel-filtered platelets were pre-incubated with 100 μM CoQ10 or solvent (0.5% DMSO) in the dark, then incubated with 2 μg/mL spike protein for 10 min and platelet aggregation was stimulated with 0.1 U/mL thrombin. Platelet aggregation was evaluated by an aggregometer (Chrono-Log Corp.). The concentration of CoQ10 is referred to our previous study [11 (link)]. For platelet activation assessment, platelets were incubated with FITC-conjugated anti-human CD62P or PAC-1 antibodies, or Alexa FluorTM 488-conjugated fibrinogen for 20 min at room temperature after pre-treatment. Platelets were then stimulated with 0.1 U/mL thrombin for 10 min or not, and were fixed with 1% paraformaldehyde and then analyzed using flow cytometry (Backman Coulter Inc., Pasadena, CA, USA).

Kindlin-3 Phosphorylation and Platelet Aggregation

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Effect of thrombin or PMA on kindlin-3 phosphorylation was examined using a kindlin-3 phosphospecific mAb while monitoring aggregation in an aggregometer (Chrono-log Corporation). Platelets (3 × 108/ml) were equilibrated at 37°C for 5 min. Then, an agonist was added and aggregation was monitored for times indicated at 37°C with stirring. The final volume in each cuvette was 500 μl. Platelets were solubilized in a Laemmli buffer containing 62.5 mM Tris–HCl, pH 7.4, 2% SDS, 5% 2-mercaptoethanol, and 10% glycerol and subjected to SDS–PAGE. Proteins were transferred to PVDF, and blots probed with antibodies of interest using 5% BSA as a blocking agent.

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.
