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.

Lithospermum erythrorhyzon has been used as a red fooddye and traditional Chinese medicine to treat wounds, skin diseases and burns. Platelet activation plays an important role in thrombosis and haemostasis. Here, we studied the inhibition of platelet activation and its active compound from the root of Lithospermum erythrorhyzon. Its ethyl acetate extract inhibited the aggregation of washed rabbit platelets induced by collagen or thrombin. Five naphthoquinone pigments , shikonin , acetylshikonin , is obutylshikonin, $\alpha$-methyl-n-butylshikonin and $\beta$,$\beta$-dimethylacrylshikonin were isolated by means of high pressure liquid chromatography. The structures were determined by comparison of their proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectra. The potency of their inhibition was in the following order : $\beta$,$\beta$-dimethylacrylshikonin$\geq$$\alpha$-methyl-n-butylshikonin>isobutylshikonin>acetylshikonin>shikonin. It is suggested that the size of the aliphatic hydroxy group of shikonin is important for the enhancement of potency.

항우울약인 rolipran(RP)등 phosphodiesterase-억제 약(PDE-1)들이 thrombin(TB: 0.25 U/ml)에 의한 혈소판 응집에 미치는 작용을 가토-혈소판에서 일차 검토하였다. 신 PDE-1인 KR-30075(KR)의 $IC_{50}$/은 sodim nitroprusside의 것보다 낮았고 PDE-1들은 혈소판내 cAMP와 cGMP를 증가시켰으며 특히 KR은 타 PDE-1와 달리 I $P_3$를 감소시켰다. 아울러 rolipram은 cGMP와 I $P_3$를 증가시켰으나, amitriptyline(AT), sertraline(57), chlorpromazine(CP) 및 spermine은 I $P_3$를 증가시켰다. 그러나 이들과 PDE-1들은 강도의 차이는 있으나 모두 TB에 의한 혈소판응집을 모두 억제하였다. 따라서, PDE-1 중 IBMX(2$\times$$10^{-5}$M), KR(5$\times$10$_－7/M), 및 rolipram(10$_{-3}$M) 그 외에 항우울약인 AT(1.5 $\times$10$_－4/M) 와 ST(10$_－4/M) 및 항정신병약인 CP(10$_－4/M)둥이 혈소판내 I $P_3$, [C $a^{＋＋}$], Tx $B_2$, 및 PG $I_2$ 함량과 단백-인산화의 TB에 의한 변동에 미치는 영향을 검토하였다. 그 결과 TB에 의한 혈소판내 I $P_3$, [C $a^{＋＋}$], Tx $B_2$, 및 PG $I_2$ 함량의 증가가 PDE-1들과 항우울약들에 의하여 억제되었다 단, 항우울성약들과 CP는 정상 혈소판 I $P_3$를 증가시켰다. 아울러 혈소판-단백인산학에서 TB는 41-43 kD와 20 kD의 인산화를 현저히 증가시키며 19 kD의 인산화는 감소시켰고, PKC의 기질인 41-43 kD와 20 kD의 단백인산화가 PDE-1들과 항우울약들 뿐 아니라 CP에 의하여 현저히 억제되었다. 단, 20 kD 인산화에 대한 AT의 억제작용은 미약하였고, cAMP와 PDE-1들은 22kD 인산화를 증가시켰다. AT, ST, 및 CP는 A23187에 의한 41-43 kD 인산화는 현저히 억제하나 20 kD 인산화에는 영향을 미치지 않았고, PMA(3.2$\times$$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.

The regulation of platelet aggregation is crucial for maintaining normal hemostasis, but abnormal or excessive platelet aggregation can contribute to cardiovascular disorders such as stroke, atherosclerosis, and thrombosis. Therefore, identifying substances that can control or suppress platelet aggregation is a promising approach for the prevention and treatment of these conditions. Artemisinin, a compound derived from Artemisia or Scopolia plants, has shown potential in various areas such as anticancer and Alzheimer's disease research. However, the specific role and mechanisms by which artemisinin influences platelet activation and thrombus formation are not yet fully understood. This study investigated the effects of artemisinin on platelet activation and thrombus formation. As a result, cAMP production were increased significantly by artemisinin, as well as phosphorylated VASP and IP₃R which are substrates to cAMP-dependent kinase by artemisinin in a significant manner. The Ca²⁺ normally mobilized from the dense tubular system was inhibited due to IP₃R phosphorylation from artemisinin, and phosphorylated VASP by artemisinin aided in inhibiting platelet activity via αIIb/β3 platelet membrane inactivation and inhibiting fibrinogen binding. Finally, artemisinin inhibited thrombin-induced thrombus formation. Therefore, we suggest that artemisinin has importance with cardiovascular diseases stemming from the abnormal platelets activation and thrombus formation by acting as an effective prophylactic and therapeutic agent.

Many clinical trials have demonstrated the beneficial effects of garlic (Allium sativum) on general cardiovascular health. Aged garlic extract (AGE) is known to display diverse biological activities such as in antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and anticancer activities. However, few studies have been directed on the effect of AGE on cardiovascular function. In this study, we aimed to investigate the effect of AGE and its components on platelet activation, a key contributor in thrombotic diseases. In freshly isolated rat platelets, AGE and its components have shown inhibitory activities on thrombin-induced platelet aggregation. These in vitro results were further confirmed in an in vivo platelet aggregation measurement where tail vein injection of garlic oil and S-Allylmercapto-cysteine (SAMC) significantly reduced thrombin and ADP-induced platelet aggregation. Potential active components for antiplatelet effects of AGE were identified to be SAMC and diallyl sulphide through agonist-induced platelet aggregation assay. These results indicate that aged garlic extract can be a novel dietary supplement for the prevention of cardiovascular risks and the improvement of blood circulation.

Cudrania tricuspidata has been reported to have many biological activities, including anti-inflammatory, anti-cancer, and antioxidant properties. However, the effects of C. tricuspidata root extract (CTE) on human platelet aggregation induced by collagen as well as the signaling pathways involved remain unknown. In the present study, we investigated the effect of CTE on human platelets. CTE inhibited platelet aggregation via down-regulation of thromboxane A₂ (TXA₂) by blocking cyclooxygenase-1 (COX-1) activity and intracellular Ca²⁺ mobilization in collagen-induced platelets. CTE also reduced the phosphorylation of phospholipase C (PLC) γ2 and syk. CTE regulated platelet aggregation via cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP)-dependent phosphorylation of vasodilator-stimulated phosphoprotein (VASP) Ser²³⁹. In addition, administration of CTE (50 and 100 mg/kg) significantly reduced hyper-aggregated platelet aggregation by collagen (5 ㎍/mL) without hepatotoxicity in HFD (high fat diet)-fed rats. Taken together, these results suggest that CTE has anti-platelet effects both in vitro and in vivo. Therefore, CTE may be an effective therapeutic and preventive agent for cardiovascular disease, and is a safe and natural product.

This study was carried out to isolate and characterize the glycomacropeptide (GMP) prepared from cow's milk and Korean native goat's milk and to examine the effects of their tryptic hydrolysates on inhibition of platelet aggregation in an in vitro experiment. The GMP derived from Holstein, Korean native goat and Hanwoo migrated at 20 KDa. Sialic acid contents in skim milk of Holstein, Korean native goat and Hanwoo were $36.86{\pm}2.36$, $37.98{\pm}1.27$ and $31.19{\pm}1.87{\mu}g/mg$, respectively. Tyrosine was detected in both bovine and caprine GMP. The in vitro inhibition rate of platelet agregation by tryptic hydrolysates of Holstein, Korean native goat and Hanwoo GMP were 4.02, 5.51 and 12.77%, respectively at reaction time 30 seconds. The inhibition of platelet aggregation by tryptic hydrolysates of bovine and caprine GMP are increased with increasing reaction time. The platelets staining revealed higher counts of platelets after the addition of GMP hydrolysates; however addition of ADP reduced the platelet count within 30 seconds and the platelets were not detected after 120 seconds. The results of this study indicate that tryptic hydrolysates of bovine and caprine GMP contain some small peptides with platelet aggregation inhibition properties. Further research on these lines may help prevent platelet aggregation related abnomalities in human.
