    Platelet-induced growth of human fibroblasts is associated with an increased expression of 5-lipoxygenase2006Inngår i: Thrombosis and Haemostasis, ISSN 0340-6245, E-ISSN 2567-689X, Vol. 96, nr 5, s. 652-659Artikkel i tidsskrift (Fagfellevurdert)
    Abstract [en]

    Proliferation of fibroblasts is vital for adequate wound healing but is probably also involved in different hyperproliferative disorders such as atherosclerosis and cancer. The regeneration of tissue usually starts with coagulation, involving release of mitogenic and inflammatory factors from activated platelets. This study focuses on the role of eicosanoids in the proliferative effects of platelets on human fibroblasts. We show that the phospholipase A2 inhibitor 7,7-dimethyl-5,8-eicosadienoic acid (DMDA), the combined cyclooxygenase (COX) and lipoxygenase (LOX) inhibitor 5,8,11,14-eicosatetraynoic acid (ETYA) and the LOX inhibitor 5,8,11-eicosatriynoic acid (ETI) block the platelet-induced proliferation of serum starved subconfluent human fibroblasts. Anti-proliferative effects were also obtained by specific inhibition of 5-LOX with 5,6-dehydro arachidonic acid (5,6-dAA), whereas the 12-LOX inhibitor cinnamyl-3,4-dihydroxy-α-cyanocinnamate (CDC) did not affect the platelet-stimulated growth of fibroblasts. The expression of 5-LOX was analyzed by reverse-transcriptase-mediated PCR (RT-PCR), Western blotting and HPLC. 5-LOX message and protein was detected in fibroblasts but not in platelets. Incubation with platelets markedly increased, already after one hour, the expression of 5-LOX in the fibroblast culture. The increased 5-LOX activity was associated with an elevated level of the 5-LOX metabolite 5-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (5-HETE) reaching its maximum after 1-2 hours of co-incubation of fibroblasts and platelets. The 5-HETE production was reduced by the inhibitors DMDA, ETYA and ETI. In conclusion, this study suggests that platelet-stimulated proliferation of fibroblasts is mediated by an increased 5-LOX activity, which supports recent findings indicating a crucial role for this enzyme in proliferative disorders such as atherosclerosis. © 2006 Schattauer GmbH, Stuttgart.

    Hair cortisol in horses (Equus caballus) in relation to management regimes, personality and breed2020Inngår i: Journal of Veterinary Behavior, ISSN 1558-7878, Vol. 37Artikkel i tidsskrift (Fagfellevurdert)
    Abstract [en]

    Hair cortisol is a promising biomarker to measure long-term stress since cortisol is incorporated into the hair shaft as it grows. However, few studies have previously assessed hair cortisol concentrations (HCC) in horses. In this study, HCC was evaluated in both mane hair from the neck and body hair from the withers in 153 horses of different breeds, from seven different stables with three different management regimes (Free-roaming horses, Riding school horses, Trotter horses). In addition, 4 hours of behavioral observations were performed at each stable, and for 43 of the horses, a personality survey was completed. Mane and withers HCC correlated moderately, but significantly (rs=0.48, p<0.001). Differences between the stables were found for both mane and withers hair (both p<0.01) and the stable with lowest HCC also showed highest occurrences of positive social and resting behaviors (both p<0.01). There were no significant differences in HCC between the management regimes even though Free-roaming horses showed less negative social behavior compared to Riding school horses (p=0.041) and Trotter horses (p=0.055). The personality traits Dominance, Anxiousness, and Excitability revealed weak to moderate correlations with mane HCC (rs=-0.34, p=0.027; rs=-0.46, p=0.002; rs=-0.31, p=0.043 respectively) which might suggest that personality could also be related to long-term stress levels in horses.

    Platelets and airway remodeling: Mechanisms involved in platelet-induced fibroblast and airway smooth muscle cell proliferation in vitro2010Doktoravhandling, med artikler (Annet vitenskapelig)
    Abstract [en]

    Airway remodeling is a contributing cause to the pathological structural changes, such as increased cell proliferation, observed in asthma. Platelets have been found in autopsy lungmaterial obtained from asthmatic patients and are well known to induce proliferation in vitro of a variety of cells. However, the role of platelets in airway remodeling is far from understood. This thesis aims to clarify the involvement of platelets in fibroblast and airway smooth muscle cell (ASMC) proliferation in vitro and to elucidate the importance of HA, FAK, eicosanoid and ROS dependent signaling. The results demonstrate that platelets induce ASMC proliferation through NADPH-oxidase and 5-LOX dependent mechanisms. In addition, platelets also induce a 5-LOX dependent fibroblast proliferation. Furthermore, morphological analysis demonstrates that platelets bind to the extracellular matrix component HA through its receptor CD44 and thereby induce a FAK dependent ASMC proliferation. Taken together, the results obtained in this thesis suggest that platelet/HA interaction mediated through CD44 is of importance for platelets ability to induce cell proliferation. Moreover, the results propose that platelet-induced fibroblast proliferation is 5-LOX dependent and that platelets induce a HA, CD44, FAK, 5-LOX, and ROSdependent ASMC proliferation. This action of platelets represents a potential important and novel mechanism that may have an impact on the remodeling process and in the development of new pharmacological strategies in the treatment of inflammatory respiratory disease such as asthma.

    Abstract [en]

    Continuous recruitment and inappropriate activity of platelets in the airways may contribute to airway remodeling, a characteristic feature of inflammatory airway diseases that includes increased proliferation of the smooth muscle.

    The aim of the present investigation was to examine the effect of platelets on proliferation of airway smooth muscle cells (ASMC) in culture and to determine the possible role of 5-lipoxygenase (5-LOX) and reactive oxygen species (ROS) in this context.

    ASMC obtained from guinea pigs were cultured and co-incubated with washed platelets for 24 hours. Thereafter, the proliferation was measured with the MTS-assay, the results were also verified by using thymidine incorporation, DNA measurements and manual counting. The interaction between platelets and ASMC was visualised with fluorescence microscopy.

    We found that platelets bind to the ASMC and the presence of platelets caused a significant dose-dependent increase in ASMC proliferation. Co-incubation of ASMC with platelets also increased ROS-production, detected by the fluorescent probe DCFDA. Furthermore, the platelet-induced proliferation was reduced in the presence of the NADPH-oxidase inhibitors DPI and apocynin.

    A possible role of 5-LOX in platelet-induced proliferation and ROS-generation was evaluated by using the 5-LOX inhibitor AA-861 and the PLA2-inhibitor ATK. The results showed that inhibition of these enzymes significantly reduced the platelet-induced proliferation. Moreover, Western blot analysis revealed that the ASMC but not the platelets express 5-LOX.

    In addition, our experiments revealed that the presence of AA-861 and ATK significantly inhibited the ROS-production generated upon coincubation of platelets and ASMC.

    In conclusion, we show that platelets have a marked capacity to induce ASMC proliferation. Furthermore, our study indicates that the interaction between platelets and ASMC leads to activation of 5-LOX in the ASMC followed by an increased ROS-production, events resulting in enhanced ASMC proliferation. The new findings are of importance in understanding possible mechanisms contributing to airway remodeling.

    Abstract [en]

    The role of platelets in airway disease is poorly understood although they have been suggested to influence on proliferation of airway smooth muscle cells (ASMC). Platelets have been found localised in the airways in autopsy material from asthmatic patients and have been implicated in airway remodeling. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effects of various platelet fractions on proliferation of ASMC obtained from guinea pigs (GP-ASMC) and humans (H-ASMC). Proliferation of ASMC was measured by the MTS-assay and the results were confirmed by measurements of the DNA content. A key observation was that the platelet membrane preparations induced a significant increase in the proliferation of both GPASMC (129.9 ± 3.0 %) and H-ASMC (144.8 ± 12.2). However, neither supernatants obtained from lysed nor filtrate from thrombin stimulated platelets did induce ASMC proliferation to the same extent as the membrane preparation. We have previously shown the platelet-induced proliferation is dependent on the 5-lipoxygenase (5-LOX) and reactive oxygen species (ROS) pathways. In the present work we established that platelet membrane-induced ASMC proliferation was reduced in the presence of the NADPH oxidase inhibitor DPI and the 5-LOX inhibitor AA-861. In conclusion, our results showed that platelet  membranes significantly induced ASMC proliferation, demonstrating that the mitogenic effect of platelets and platelet membranes on ASMC is mainly due to membrane-associated factors. The effects of platelet membranes were evident on both GP-ASMC and H-ASMC and involved 5-LOX and ROS. These new findings are of importance in understanding the mechanisms contributing to airway remodeling and may contribute to the development of new pharmacological tools in the treatment of inflammatory airway diseases.

    Abstract [en]

    Platelets have been implicated as important players in the remodeling process, e.g. due to their ability to induce airway smooth muscle cell (ASMC) proliferation. The aim of the present study was to investigate the role of the extracellular matrix component hyaluronic acid (HA), the HA-binding surface receptor CD44 and focal adhesion kinase (FAK) in platelet-induced ASMC proliferation. The ability of ASMC to synthesize HA was investigated by fluorescent staining using biotinylated HA-binding protein and streptavidin conjugate. In addition, the interaction between ASMC and platelets was studied by fluorescent staining of the F-actin. We found that ASMC produced HA and that a CD44 blocking antibody and the hyaluronic acid synthase inhibitor 4-Methylumbelliferone (4-MU) inhibited platelet binding to the area surrounding the ASMC. Proliferation of ASMC was measured using the MTS-assay, and we found that the CD44 blocking antibody and 4-MU inhibited platelet-induced ASMC proliferation. We also found that co-culture of ASMC and platelets resulted in increased phosphorylation of FAK as detected by Western blot analysis. Furthermore, the FAKinhibitor PF 573228 inhibited platelet-induced ASMC proliferation. In conclusion, our findings demonstrate that HA, CD44 and FAK contribute to the increased ASMC proliferation caused by platelets. This event is initiated by an interaction between platelets CD44 and HA produced by the ASMC. These new findings may be important in understanding the interplay between ECM, platelets and ASMC in the remodeling process. In conclusion, our results demonstrate that FAK is phosphorylated and on that account activated during the CD44-dependent platelet/ASMC interaction and this contributes to proliferation of the ASMC. These new findings may be important in understanding the interplay between ECM, platelets and ASMC in the remodeling process.

    In conclusion, we show that platelets have a marked capacity to induce ASMC proliferation. Furthermore, our study indicates that the interaction between platelets and ASMC leads to activation of 5-LOX in the ASMC followed by an increased ROS-production, events resulting in enhanced ASMC proliferation. The new findings are of importance in understanding possible mechanisms contributing to airway remodeling.

    Platelet membranes induce airway smooth muscle cellproliferation2011Inngår i: Platelets, ISSN 0953-7104, E-ISSN 1369-1635, Vol. 22, nr 1, s. 45-55Artikkel i tidsskrift (Fagfellevurdert)
    Abstract [en]

    The role of platelets in airway disease is poorly understood although they have been suggested to influence on proliferation of airway smooth muscle cells (ASMC). Platelets have been found localised in the airways in autopsy material from asthmatic patients and have been implicated in airway remodeling. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effects of various platelet fractions on proliferation of ASMC obtained from guinea pigs (GP-ASMC) and humans (H-ASMC). Proliferation of ASMC was measured by the MTS-assay and the results were confirmed by measurements of the DNA content. A key observation was that the platelet membrane preparations induced a significant increase in the proliferation of both GPASMC (129.9 ± 3.0 %) and H-ASMC (144.8 ± 12.2). However, neither supernatants obtained from lysed nor filtrate from thrombin stimulated platelets did induce ASMC proliferation to the same extent as the membrane preparation. We have previously shown the platelet-induced proliferation is dependent on the 5-lipoxygenase (5-LOX) and reactive oxygen species (ROS) pathways. In the present work we established that platelet membrane-induced ASMC proliferation was reduced in the presence of the NADPH oxidase inhibitor DPI and the 5-LOX inhibitor AA-861. In conclusion, our results showed that platelet  membranes significantly induced ASMC proliferation, demonstrating that the mitogenic effect of platelets and platelet membranes on ASMC is mainly due to membrane-associated factors. The effects of platelet membranes were evident on both GP-ASMC and H-ASMC and involved 5-LOX and ROS. These new findings are of importance in understanding the mechanisms contributing to airway remodeling and may contribute to the development of new pharmacological tools in the treatment of inflammatory airway diseases.

    Platelets bind to hyaluronic acid through CD44 and induce a focal adhesion kinase dependent airway smooth muscle cell proliferation2008Manuskript (preprint) (Annet vitenskapelig)
    Abstract [en]

    Platelets have been implicated as important players in the remodeling process, e.g. due to their ability to induce airway smooth muscle cell (ASMC) proliferation. The aim of the present study was to investigate the role of the extracellular matrix component hyaluronic acid (HA), the HA-binding surface receptor CD44 and focal adhesion kinase (FAK) in platelet-induced ASMC proliferation. The ability of ASMC to synthesize HA was investigated by fluorescent staining using biotinylated HA-binding protein and streptavidin conjugate. In addition, the interaction between ASMC and platelets was studied by fluorescent staining of the F-actin. We found that ASMC produced HA and that a CD44 blocking antibody and the hyaluronic acid synthase inhibitor 4-Methylumbelliferone (4-MU) inhibited platelet binding to the area surrounding the ASMC. Proliferation of ASMC was measured using the MTS-assay, and we found that the CD44 blocking antibody and 4-MU inhibited platelet-induced ASMC proliferation. We also found that co-culture of ASMC and platelets resulted in increased phosphorylation of FAK as detected by Western blot analysis. Furthermore, the FAKinhibitor PF 573228 inhibited platelet-induced ASMC proliferation. In conclusion, our findings demonstrate that HA, CD44 and FAK contribute to the increased ASMC proliferation caused by platelets. This event is initiated by an interaction between platelets CD44 and HA produced by the ASMC. These new findings may be important in understanding the interplay between ECM, platelets and ASMC in the remodeling process. In conclusion, our results demonstrate that FAK is phosphorylated and on that account activated during the CD44-dependent platelet/ASMC interaction and this contributes to proliferation of the ASMC. These new findings may be important in understanding the interplay between ECM, platelets and ASMC in the remodeling process.

    Thyroid hormone does not induce maturation of embryonicchicken cardiomyocytes in vitro2014Inngår i: Physiological Reports, E-ISSN 2051-817X, Vol. 2, nr 12, s. e12182-Artikkel i tidsskrift (Fagfellevurdert)
    Abstract [sv]

    Fetal cardiac growth in mammalian models occurs primarily by cell proliferation(hyperplasia). However, most cardiomyocytes lose the ability to proliferateclose to term and heart growth continues by increasing cell size(hypertrophy). In mammals, the thyroid hormone triiodothyronine (T3) is animportant driver of this process. Chicken cardiomyocytes, however, keep theirproliferating ability long after hatching but little information is available onthe mechanisms controlling cell growth and myocyte maturation in thechicken heart. Our aim was to study the role of T3 on proliferation and differentiationof embryonic chicken cardiomyocytes (ECCM), enzymaticallyisolated from 19-day-old embryos and to compare the effects to those of insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) and phenylephrine (PE). Hyperplasia wasmeasured using a proliferation assay (MTS) and hypertrophy/multinucleationwas analyzed morphologically by phalloidin staining of F-actin and nuclearstaining with DAPI. We show that IGF-1 induces a significant increase inECCM proliferation (30%) which is absent with T3 and PE. PE induced bothhypertrophy (61%) and multinucleation (41%) but IGF-1 or T3 did not. Inconclusion, we show that T3 does not induce maturation or proliferation ofcardiomyocytes, while IGF-1 induces cardiomyocyte proliferation and PEinduces maturation of cardiomyocytes.

    Hyaluronic acid influence on platelet-induced airway smooth muscle cell proliferation2012Inngår i: Experimental Cell Research, ISSN 0014-4827, E-ISSN 1090-2422, Vol. 318, nr 5, s. 632-640Artikkel i tidsskrift (Fagfellevurdert)
    Abstract [en]

    Hyaluronic acid (HA) is one of the main components of the extracellular matrix (ECM) and is expressed throughout the body including the lung and mostly in areas surrounding proliferating and migrating cells. Furthermore, platelets have been implicated as important players in the airway remodelling process, e.g. due to their ability to induce airway smooth muscle cell (ASMC) proliferation. The aim of the present study was to investigate the role of HA, the HA-binding surface receptor CD44 and focal adhesion kinase (FAK) in platelet-induced ASMC proliferation. Proliferation of ASMC was measured using the MTS-assay, and we found that the CD44 blocking antibody and the HA synthase inhibitor 4-Methylumbelliferone (4-MU) significantly inhibited platelet-induced ASMC proliferation. The interaction between ASMC and platelets was studied by fluorescent staining of F-actin. In addition, the ability of ASMC to synthesise HA was investigated by fluorescent staining using biotinylated HA-binding protein and a streptavidin conjugate. We observed that ASMC produced HA and that a CD44 blocking antibody and 4-MU significantly inhibited platelet binding to the area surrounding the ASMC. Furthermore, the FAK-inhibitor PF 573228 inhibited platelet-induced ASMC proliferation. Co-culture of ASMC and platelets also resulted in increased phosphorylation of FAK as detected by Western blot analysis. In addition, 4-MU significantly inhibited the increased FAK-phosphorylation. In conclusion, our findings demonstrate that ECM has the ability to influence platelet-induced ASMC proliferation. Specifically, we propose that HA produced by ASMC is recognised by platelet CD44. The platelet/HA interaction is followed by FAK activation and increased proliferation of co-cultured ASMC. We also suggest that the mitogenic effect of platelets represents a potential important and novel mechanism that may contribute to airway remodelling.

    Inhibition of 12-lipoxygenase reduces platelet activation and prevents their mitogenic function2014Inngår i: Platelets, ISSN 0953-7104, E-ISSN 1369-1635, Vol. 25, nr 2, s. 111-117Artikkel i tidsskrift (Fagfellevurdert)
    Abstract [en]

    The aim of the present study was to investigate the role of 12-lipoxygenase (12-LOX) on platelet-induced airway smooth muscle cell (ASMC) proliferation. Co-incubation of platelets and ASMC caused platelet activation as determined by morphological changes. Simultaneously, reactive oxygen species (ROS)-generation was detected and ASMC proliferation (measured by using the MTS assay) increased significantly. Furthermore, we found that the 12-LOX inhibitors cinnamyl-3,4-dihydroxy-α-cyanocinnamate (CDC) and Baicalein prevented platelet activation in a co-cultures of platelets and ASMC. The inhibitory effect of CDC and Baicalein on platelets was also registered in a pure platelet preparation. Specifically, the 12-LOX inhibitors reduced collagen-induced platelet aggregation both in the presence and absence of external added fibrinogen. Importantly, platelet-induced ASMC proliferation and ROS production generated during the platelet/ASMC interaction was significantly inhibited in the presence of 12-LOX inhibitors. In conclusion, our findings reveal that 12-LOX is crucial for the observed enhancement of ASMC proliferation in co-cultures of platelets and ASMC. The present result suggests that 12-LOX activity is important in the initial step of platelet/ASMC interaction and platelet activation. Such action of 12-LOX represents a potential important mechanism that may contribute to platelet-induced airway remodelling.

    Thrombin-induced lysosomal exocytosis in human platelets is dependent on secondary activation by ADP and regulated by endothelial-derived substances2016Inngår i: Platelets, ISSN 0953-7104, E-ISSN 1369-1635, Vol. 27, nr 1, s. 86-92Artikkel i tidsskrift (Fagfellevurdert)
    Abstract [en]

    Exocytosis of lysosomal contents from platelets has been speculated to participate in clearance of thrombi and vessel wall remodelling. The mechanisms that regulate lysosomal exocytosis in platelets are, however, still unclear. The aim of this study was to identify the pathways underlying platelet lysosomal secretion and elucidate how this process is controlled by platelet inhibitors. We found that high concentrations of thrombin induced partial lysosomal exocytosis as assessed by analysis of the activity of released N-acetyl--glucosaminidase (NAG) and by identifying the fraction of platelets exposing the lysosomal-associated membrane protein (LAMP)-1 on the cell surface by flow cytometry. Stimulation of thrombin receptors PAR1 or PAR4 with specific peptides was equally effective in inducing LAMP-1 surface expression. Notably, lysosomal exocytosis in response to thrombin was significantly reduced if the secondary activation by ADP was inhibited by the P2Y(12) antagonist cangrelor, while inhibition of thromboxane A(2) formation by treatment with acetylsalicylic acid was of minor importance in this regard. Moreover, the NO-releasing drug S-nitroso-N-acetyl penicillamine (SNAP) or the cyclic AMP-elevating eicosanoid prostaglandin I-2 (PGI(2)) significantly suppressed lysosomal exocytosis. We conclude that platelet inhibitors that mimic functional endothelium such as PGI(2) or NO efficiently counteract lysosomal exocytosis. Furthermore, we suggest that secondary release of ADP and concomitant signaling via PAR1/4- and P2Y(12) receptors is important for efficient platelet lysosomal exocytosis by thrombin.
