Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is increasingly increasing as the main cause of death worldwide, and activation of platelet in vascular damage is one of the important causes of CVD. In recent, there is a growing interest in anti-thrombotic materials through platelet suppression, and efforts are being made to reduce side effects by using natural bioactive compounds. Known as one of the Flavonoids, hydroxygenkwanin (HGK) is a purified substance in Daphne Genkwa, which is known to have antibacterial, anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer effects, and has been reported to serve as an inhibitor of tissue factor that prevents thrombosis, but its anti-platelet effects and the action mechanisms is not known. In this study, we confirmed that the effects of HGK on the collagen-induced human platelets activation. HGK suppressed phosphorylation of PI3K/AKT and mitogen-activated protein kinases during platelet signaling, and reduced granule secretion in platelets such as ATP and serotonin. In addition, HGK inhibited the phosphorylation of cPLA₂ and strongly undermined the production of TXA₂, which is a powerful aggregation amplifier. As a result, the platelet aggregation derived by Collagen, a cohesive induced substance, was strongly suppressed by HGK to an IC₅₀ of 86.36 µM. Therefore, HGK might be worth the antithrombotic substance that inhibits the activation and aggregation of human platelets that occur through blood vessel damage.

작약의 메타놀에기스를 작용성분을 추적하면서 분리하였으며 EtOAc 분획으로부터 gallic acid methylester(GA-1) 및 paeonoldmf 혈소판 응집억제 작용 물질로서 분리하였으며 Paeonol은 혈소판 응집억제 작용이 이비 보고된바 있다. GA-1은 오가피로부터 혈소판 응집억제 작용물질로서 분리된 DBA-1과 구조적으로 매우 유사하며 혈소판 응집억제 작용물질로서 알려진 aspirin의 구조와 유사하다. Platelet aggregometer을 이용하여 DBA 및 GA analogs 13종(DBA-1-10 및 GA-1-3)들이 ADP 또는 collagen에 의하여 유도된 혈소판 응집에 대하여 억제작용을 보이는가를 검색하였다. 이들중 aspirin과 유사하게 억제작용을 보인 DBA-1-3-7-9-10, GA-3 및 paeonol에 대하여 mouse를 이용한 in vivotlfgja을 시행하였다. 즉 endotoxin 또는 collagen 과 epinephrine을 정맥주사하여 intravascular thrombosis를 일으켜 혈소판수를 감소시키며 이때 이들 물질들의 혈소판 감소 억제효과를 관찰하였다. 대조약물로서 사용한 aspirin은 collagen과 epinephrine에 의한 혈소판 감소를 현저히 억제한 반면 endotoxin에 의한 혈소판 감소에는 효과가 없었다. DBA-9, -10, GA-3 및 paeonol은 endotoxin에 의한 혈소판감소에 대하여 약한 억제효과를 보였으며, 검색시료 전부가 collagen과 epinephrine에 의한 혈소판 감소에는 aspirin보다 작용이 적었으나, DBA-10, GA-3 및 paeonol은 현저하게 억제효과 있었다. 또한 collagen과 epinephrine 동시 투여에 의한 치사 실험에서는 DBAD-7, GA-3 및 paeonol이 aspirin과 같거나 강한 사망 억제 효과가 있었다.cyclopropyl-7-(2-furanyl) -6-fluoro-1,4-dihydro-4-oxo-3-quinoline carboxylic acid (compound 4), 1-cyclopropyl-7-(2-thiophenyl)-6-fluoro-1,4-dihydro-4-oxo-3-quinoline carboxylic acid (compound 6) ,1-cyclopropyl-7-(3-pyridinyl)-6-fluoro-1,4-dihydro-4-oxo-3-quinoline carboxylic acid (compound 8), 1-cyclopropyl-7-(2-fluoro-3-pyridinyl)-6-fluoro-1,4-dihydro-4-oxo-3-quinoline carboxylic acid (compound 10)를 합성하였다.10^{－7}$ M)에 의한 단백인산화에 대하여는 더 미약한 억제-효과를 나타내었다. 이상의 결과는 PDE-1과 항우울약들의 항혈소판작용은 PKC-기질인 41-43 kD와 20 kD의 인산화를 억제함에 기인되는 것으로 사료된다.다. 것으로 사료된다.다.바와 같이 MCl에서 작은 Dv 값을 갖는데, 이것은 CdCl$_{4}$$^{2-}$ 착이온을 형성하거나 ZnCl$_{4}$$^{2-}$ , ZnCl$_{3}$$^{-}$같은 이온과 MgCl$^{+}$, MgCl$_{2}$같은 이온종을 형성하기 때문인것 같다. 한편 어떠한 용리액에서던지 NH$_{4}$$^{+}$의 경우 Dv값이 제일 작았다. 바. 본 연구의 목적중의 하나인 인체유해 중금속이온인 Hg(II), Cd(II)등이 NaCl같은 염화물이 함유된 시료용액에 공해이온으로 존재할 경우 흡착에 의한 제거가

Sjogren's syndrome is an autoimmune disease characterized by dry mouth and neutropenia. Although it does not commonly involve the central nervous system, Sjogren's syndrome sometimes affects small vessels through microangiopathic alterations. A 34-year-old woman was hospitalized for left upper quadrantanopia and a tingling sensation in the left hemibody. Brain magnetic resonance imaging revealed acute infarction in the right posterior cerebral artery territory. In laboratory tests, antinuclear (FANA2+) and anti-DNA antibodies (anti-SS-A (Ro)) were detected. Salivary gland scintigraphy revealed moderately decreasedexcretion of saliva. Based on these findings, we concluded she had Sjogren's syndrome. As in this patient, large vessel involvement in Sjogren's syndrome is far less common. Furthermore, it is difficult to administer antiplatelet drugsto patients with thrombocytopenia in Sjogren's syndrome. This is a case of the patient with Sjogren's syndrome that involved thrombocytopenia and large vessel invasion who was treated with antiplatelet drugs and hydroxychloroquine.

We have previously reported that green tea catechins(GTC) displayed potent antithrombotic effect, which was due to the antiplatelet activity. In the present study, the antiplatelet activity of each green tea catechin components was compared in vitro. Galloylated catechins including (-)-epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), (-)-gallocatechin gallate (GCG), (-)-epicatechin gallate (ECG) and (-)-catechin gallate (CG), significantly inhibited collagen $(5{\mu}g/mL)-induced$ rabbit platelet aggregation with $IC_{50}$ values of 79.8, 63.0, 168.2 and $67.3{\mu}M$, respectively. EGCC GCG and CG also significantly inhibited arachidonic acid (AA, $100{\mu}M$)-induced rabbit platelet aggregation with $IC_{50}$ values of 98.9, 200.0 and $174.3{\mu}M$, respectively. However catechins without gallate moiety showed little inhibitory effects against rabbit platelet aggregation induced by collagen or AA compared with galloylated catechins. These observations suggest that the presence of gallate moiety at C-3 position may be essential to the antiplatelet activity of catechins and the presence of B ring galloyl structure may also contribute to the antiplatelet activity of GTC. In line with the inhibition of collagen-induced platelet aggregation, EGCG caused concentration-dependent decreases of cytosolic calcium mobilization, AA liberation and serotonin secretion. In contrast, epigallocatechin (EGC), a structural analogue of EGCG lacking a galloyl group in the 3' position, although slightly inhibited collagen-stimulated cytosolic calcium mobilization, failed to affect other signal transductions as EGCG in activated platelets. Taken together, these observations suggest that the antiplatelet activity of EGCG may be due to inhibition of arachidonic acid liberation and inhibition of $Ca^{2+}$ mobilization and that the antiplatelet of EGCG is enhanced by the presence of a gallate moiety esterified at carbon 3 on the C ring.

Several studies have shown that plant-derived polyphenols reduce cardiovascular accidents in high-risk patients and the inhibition of platelet function may be responsible for part of this benefit. Lindera obtusiloba is widely used in traditional herbal medicine for the treatment of cardiovascular and inflammatory diseases. Therefore, the antiplatelet and antithrombotic activities of Lindera obtusiloba Extracts (LOE) on in vitro platelet aggregation, radical scavenging activity and in vivo murine pulmonary thrombosis were examined. LOE was able to directly scavenge the stable DPPH radical in a concentration-dependent manner and its $IC_{50}$ value was 3.9 ${\pm}$ 0.1 ${\mu}g$/ml. LOE significantly inhibited collagen- and ADP-induced platelet aggregation in a concentration-dependent manner and its $IC_{50}$ value is 0.9 ${\pm}$ 0.1 mg/ml and 0.4 ${\pm}$ 0.1 mg/ml respectively. The inhibitory effect of LOE was comparable to aspirin ($IC_{50}$ values were 1.0 ${\pm}$ 0.5 and 1.0 ${\pm}$ 0.7 mg/ml, respectively). Furthermore, oral administration of LOE suppressed the death of mice with pulmonary thrombosis induced by intravenous injection of collagen plus epinephrine. Taken together, our results suggest LOE may be a promising candidate for antithrombotic agent, and the antithrombotic effect of LOE may be due to, at least in part, antiplatelet activity.

Acetylsalicylic acid (ASA)와 고려홍삼의 항산화 성분인 maltol을 축합하여 신물질 aspalatone을 합성하고, 흰쥐에서의 지혈시간 연장 효과, 항혈소판 응집 억제 (in Vitro, ex ViVO) 효과 및 생쥐의 혈전 모델을 이용한 항혈전 (in vivo) 효과를 연구하였다. SD계 웅성 흰쥐에 15 mg/kg의 낮은 용량으로 경구투여 할 경우, aspalatone과 ASA는 각각 최소한 8일 연속투여후 지혈시간을 유의적으로 연장시켰으며 같은 용량으로 10일 간 경구투여. 하였을 때, aspalatone 투여군은 대조군에 비하여 지혈시간이 57% (p<0.005) 연장된 반면, ASA 투여군은 44% 연장되었다. 반면, aspalatone의 아세칠 기를 갖지 않는 salicylic acid maltnl ester는 같은 용량에서 지혈시간을 유의적으로 연장시키지 않았다. Aspalatone은 in vitro에서 collagen에 의해 유도된 흰쥐 혈소판 응집을 강력하게 억제하였으나 (IS$_{50}$ = 0.18 mM), ASA와 마찬가지로 ADP에 의한 응집은 억제하지 않았다. Aspalatnne과 다른 대조약물들의 ex vivo에서의 혈소판 응집 억제능은 ASA>dipyridamdle(equation omitted)aspalatone>ticlopidine의 순이었다. 1회 경구투여로 aspalatone은 생쥐의 collagen에 의한 혈전에 기인하는 치사율을 억제하였다 (ED$_{50}$ = 32mg/kg). Aspalatone을 10일 간 투여하면 유효용량이 현저히 감소하여 20 mg/kg에서 치사율을 90% (p<0.001) 억제하였으며, 이러한 항혈전 효과는 투여중단 4일 후에도 지속되었다. 또한, 경구투여시 위궤양을 유발하는 ASA (ulcer index : 29 mm 200 mg/kg p.o.)와는 다르게 aspalatone은 위궤양을 유발하지 않는다는 장점을 갖는다 (0.71 mm, 800 mg/kg p.o.). In vitro에서 malondialdehyde 생성 억제를 지표로 한 aspalatone의 항산화 활성 ($IC_{50}$/ = 0.11 mM)은 maltol ($IC_{50}$/ = 0.084 mM)과 유산하다. 이러한 실험결과를 토대로 하여 aspalatone을 위궤양을 유발하지 않는 항혈전 신약으로 개발하기 위한 연구가 진행 중이다.

Neonatal alloimmune thrombocytopenia (NAIT) is induced by maternal antibodies to fetal platelet alloantigens. Because the main cause of NAIT is incompatibility to platelet specific antibodies, NAIT due to HLA antibodies are relatively rare. We managed a case of NAIT induced by maternal anti-HLA-B35 antibodies. The patient was a second born male. He had no petechiae or purpura at birth. He was admitted to the hospital due to fever for 5 days and a platelet count of $106\times10^9/L$. The fever subsided after admission but on the 2nd day of admission, petechiae developed on the chest wall and the platelet count decreased to $25\times10^9/L$. Other laboratory findings included C-reactive protein, prothrombin time, and partial thromboplastin time were normal. His mother's platelet count was normal and she had no history of bleeding. Anti-HLA-B35, B52, B56, C3, and C14 were identified in the mother's serum by a panel reactive antibody test and HLA-B35 antigen was identified in the father's and patient's sera. These finding suggested that maternal Anti-HLA-B35 antibody was a response to neonatal HLA-B35 antigen inherited from the father. The patient received concentrated platelet and intravenous immunoglobulin. The platelet count rose to $248\times10^9/L$ and was maintained thereafter.

Background: A previous history of transfusion has been known to be associated with production of anti-HLA class I antibodies. However, platelet glycoproteins are the main target of idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP). The mechanism of antibody production is known to differ significantly between glycoproteins and anti-HLA class I. The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical significance of anti-HLA class I antibodies in childhood ITP. Methods: Enrollment for the normal control group targeted 48 people who visited Gyeongsang National University Hospital from 1990 to 2010, and 48 young children with ITP. Anti-glycoproteins and anti-HLA class I antibodies were tested using the Modified Antigen Capture Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (MACE) kit. Results: The positive rate of anti-HLA antibodies was significantly different [36/39 (92.3%) vs 29/46 (63%)] [ITP group vs normal control group] (P=0.002). The mean positive S/C ratio of anti-HLA antibodies was also significantly different (3.55 vs 1.51) [ITP group vs normal control group] (P=0.0000). The positive rate of anti-HLA did not differ significantly between the transfused group and the non-transfused group [12/12 (100%) vs 24/27 (88%)] [transfused ITP vs non-transfused ITP]. The mean positive S/C ratio of anti-HLA antibodies did not differ significantly between the transfused ITP group and the non-transfused ITP group (4.30 vs 3.25) [transfused ITP vs non-transfused ITP]. Consecutive testing showed that positive rate and positive S/C ratio of anti-HLA antibodies did not change significantly between sampling times in both groups [transfused ITP vs non-transfused ITP] (P=1.00 and P=0.15). Conclusion: Anti-HLA class I antibodies may be involved in childhood ITP. Transfusion did not affect the course of childhood ITP.

Salvia miltiorrhiza Bunge is known to potentially prevent arteriosclerosis and hypertension, but its effects on platelet function are not clear. In this study, we evaluated the in vitro antithrombotic activities of the edible plant extract. Methanol extract of S. miltiorrhiza Bunge exhibited about 70% fibrinolytic activity compared to the plasmin control, and inhibited ADP- and collagen-induced platelet aggregation in a concentration-dependent manner with $IC_{50}$ values of 0.42 and 0.07 mg/mL, respectively. S. miltiorrhiza Bunge extract significantly prolonged the activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) and prothrombin time (PT) compared with control. Moreover, 0.05 mg/mL S. miltiorrhiza Bunge extract contained 87.3% l,l-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical-scavenging activity. In conclusion, S. miltiorrhiza Bunge seemed to enhance antithrombotic activity due to its radical scavenging activity. Based on these data, further examination is required to determine the mechanism of platelet-dependent antithrombosis and the effect of polyphenols on platelet function.
