P2RY1 and P2RY12 polymorphisms and on-aspirin platelet reactivity in patients with coronary artery disease.

ABSTRACT: Association of P2RY1 and P2RY12 polymorphisms with on-aspirin platelet reactivity was investigated.Platelet reactivity was assessed by the light transmission aggregometry and TxB(2) assay in 423 patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) on aspirin. High residual platelet reactivity (RPR) was defined by ?20% and ?70% maximal aggregation stimulated with 0.5 mg/mL arachidonic acid (AA) and 10 ?m ADP, respectively. Moderate RPR was considered aggregation ?20% with AA, ?70% with ADP, or ?1 ng/mL stimulated TxB(2) . Fourteen P2RY1 and 35 P2RY12 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were genotyped.High RPR was detected in 24% of the patients. Moderate RPR was observed in 31% with AA, 57% with 5 ?m ADP, and 82% with 10 ?m ADP. Stimulated TxB(2) was ?1 ng/mL in 23% of patients. P2RY12 SNP rs9859538 was associated with high RPR (OR = 2.16, 95% CI = 1.24-3.75, P-value = 0.004). Four P2RY12 SNPs, rs1491974, rs10513398, rs3732765, and rs10935841, showed association with moderate RPR (OR = 1.79-2.94, P-value = 0.04-0.028), while five, rs7615865, rs1388623, rs1388622, rs7634096, and rs7637803, were associated with low RPR (OR = 0.50-0.55, P-value = 0.008-0.026), following ADP stimulation. TxB(2) level <1 ng/mL was linked to five P2RY1 SNPs, rs1439010, rs1371097, rs701265, rs12497578, and rs2312265 (OR = 0.36-0.54, P-value = 0.003-0.039).Polymorphisms in P2RY1 and P2RY12 are associated with on-aspirin platelet reactivity in patients with CAD.

Project description:Background:The mechanisms behind residual platelet reactivity (RPR) despite aspirin treatment are not established. It has been shown that coronary artery disease (CAD) patients with high on-aspirin RPR have elevated levels of von Willebrand factor (vWF). ADAMTS13 is a metalloprotease cleaving ultra large vWF multimers into less active fragments.Our aim was to investigate whether ADAMTS13 and vWF/ADAMTS13 ratio were associated with high RPR, and further with clinical endpoints after 2 years. Methods:Stable aspirin-treated CAD patients (n?=?999) from the ASCET trial. RPR was assessed by PFA-100. ADAMTS13 antigen and activity were analysed using chromogenic assays. Endpoints were a composite of acute myocardial infarction, stroke and death. Results:The number of patients with high RPR was 258 (25.8%). Their serum thromboxane B2 (TxB2) levels were low, indicating inhibition of COX-1. They had significantly lower levels of ADAMTS13 antigen compared to patients with low RPR (517 vs 544 ng/mL, p?=?0.001) and significantly lower ADAMTS13 activity (0.99 vs 1.04 IU/mL, p?=?0.020). The differences were more pronounced when relating RPR to ratios of vWF/ADAMTS13 antigen and vWF/ADAMTS13 activity (p?<?0.001, both). We found an inverse correlation between vWF and ADAMTS13 antigen (r?=?-0.14, p?<?0.001) and ADAMTS13 activity (r?=?-0.11, p?<?0.001). No correlations between TxB2 and ADAMTS13 antigen or activity, were observed, implying that ADAMTS13 is not involved in TxB2 production. Patients who experienced endpoints (n?=?73) had higher vWF level (113 vs 105%, p?=?0.032) and vWF/ADAMTS13 antigen ratio (0.23 vs 0.20, p?=?0.012) compared to patients without. When dichotomizing vWF/ADAMTS13 antigen at median level we observed that patients above median had higher risk for suffering endpoints, with an adjusted OR of 1.86 (95% CI 1.45, 2.82). Conclusion:These results indicate that ADAMTS13 is of importance for RPR, and that it in combination with vWF also is associated with clinical endpoints in stable CAD patients on aspirin.

Project description:ObjectivesThe purpose of this study was to determine if an incomplete response to or inadequate antiplatelet effect of aspirin, or both, contribute to saphenous vein graft (SVG) occlusion after coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery.BackgroundThrombosis is the predominant cause of early SVG occlusion. Aspirin, which inhibits cyclooxygenase-1 activity and thromboxane generation in platelets, reduces early SVG occlusion by one-half.MethodsAspirin responsiveness and platelet reactivity were characterized 3 days and 6 months after coronary artery bypass graft surgery in 229 subjects receiving aspirin monotherapy by platelet aggregation to arachidonic acid, adenosine diphosphate, collagen and epinephrine, Platelet Function Analyzer-100 (Siemens Healthcare Diagnostics, Newark, Delaware) closure time (CT) using collagen/epinephrine agonist cartridge and collagen/adenosine diphosphate (CADP) agonist cartridge, VerifyNow Aspirin assay (Accumetrics, Inc., San Diego, California), and urine levels of 11-dehydro-thromboxane B(2) (UTXB(2)). SVG patency was determined 6 months after surgery by computed tomography coronary angiography.ResultsInhibited arachidonic acid-induced platelet aggregation, indicative of aspirin-mediated cyclooxygenase-1 suppression, occurred in 95% and >99% of subjects 3 days and 6 months after surgery, respectively. Despite this, 73% and 31% of subjects at these times had elevated UTXB(2). Among tested parameters, only UTXB(2) and CADP CT measured 6 months after surgery correlated with outcome. By multivariate analysis, CADP CT of ≤88 s (odds ratio: 2.85, p = 0.006), target vessel diameter of ≤1.5 mm (odds ratio: 2.38, p = 0.01), and UTXB(2) of ≥450 pg/mg creatinine (odds ratio: 2.59, p = 0.015) correlated with SVG occlusion. CADP CT and UTXB(2) in combination further identified subjects at particularly high and low risk for SVG occlusion.ConclusionsAspirin-insensitive thromboxane generation measured by UTXB(2) and shear-dependent platelet hyper-reactivity measured by Platelet Function Analyzer-100 CADP CT are novel independent risk factors for early SVG thrombosis after coronary artery bypass graft surgery.

Project description:BackgroundHyperglycaemia may attenuate the antiplatelet effect of aspirin and thereby increase the risk of cardiovascular events. We investigated the influence of increased haemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) levels on platelet aggregation and turnover in a large cohort of patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) with type 2 diabetes, prediabetes or no diabetes.MethodsIn this observational study, we included 865 stable CAD patients on 75 mg aspirin as mono-therapy of whom 242 patients had type 2 diabetes and were receiving antidiabetic drugs. Among 623 patients without diabetes, we classified 303 patients with prediabetes (HbA1c ≥5.7-6.4% [39-47 mmol/mol]) naive to antidiabetic drugs. Platelet aggregation was evaluated by the Multiplate Analyzer using arachidonic acid and collagen and by the VerifyNow Aspirin. Platelet turnover was evaluated by immature platelets using flow cytometry and platelet activation by soluble P-selectin.ResultsCAD patients with type 2 diabetes had higher platelet aggregation (all p-values <0.01), platelet turnover (immature platelet count, p<0.01) and platelet activation (p<0.001) than patients without diabetes. CAD patients with prediabetes had increased platelet aggregation (p = 0.02) and platelet count (p = 0.02) compared with patients without diabetes. Increased levels of HbA1c correlated positively with increased platelet aggregation using arachidonic acid (r = 0.19, p<0.0001), collagen (r = 0.10, p<0.01) and VerifyNow (r = 0.15, p<0.0001), and with platelet count (r = 0.08, p = 0.01), immature platelet count (r = 0.11, p<0.001) and soluble P-selectin (r = 0.15, p<0.0001). These associations were mainly evident in non-diabetic and prediabetic CAD patients.ConclusionsCAD patients with prediabetes and diabetes may have attenuated antiplatelet effect of aspirin compared with CAD patients without diabetes. This may be related to increased platelet count in patients with prediabetes. Increased levels of HbA1c correlated positively, though weakly, with increased platelet aggregation, platelet turnover and platelet activation.

Project description:Coronary artery disease (CAD) is the leading cause of human morbidity and mortality worldwide, underscoring the need to improve diagnostic strategies. Platelets play a major role, not only in the process of acute thrombosis during plaque rupture, but also in the formation of atherosclerosis itself. MicroRNAs are endogenous small non-coding RNAs that control gene expression and are expressed in a tissue and disease-specific manner. Therefore they have been proposed to be useful biomarkers. The aim of this study was to investigate whether differences in miRNA expression levels in platelets can be found (i) between patients with premature CAD and healthy controls and (ii) within healthy controls after and before aspirin and statin administration. In this case-control study we measured expression levels of platelet miRNAs using microarrays from 40 male patients with premature CAD and 40 age- and sex-matched healthy controls. Premature CAD was defined as a cardiac event before the age of 51 years. The patients were selected from the outpatient clinic of the Academic Medical Center (AMC) of Amsterdam, which is specialised in premature CAD. The control cohort was composed of 40 healthy Caucasian male volunteers, who were recruited by advertisement and who were matched with the cases for age and smoking habits. Individuals of this control cohort did not have a history of CVD, nor did they have a positive family history of CVD and they were not allowed to use any medication. Patients and controls were excluded when they suffered from diabetes. Most CAD patients use aspirin and statins as secondary prevention. The influence of these drugs on miRNA profiles is unknown. To assess the possible influence of medication on miRNA expression and to control for medication as confounding factor, we asked 27 volunteers in our control cohort to also use these drugs. We administered simvastatin 40 mg, once daily, for 6 weeks and during the last two weeks we added 100mg of acetyl salicylic acid, once daily. Blood samples including isolated platelets were collected at baseline in the absence of aspirin and statins and after six weeks of medication use. We also assessed platelet function using the Multiplate® Analyzer (Roche) in the absence of aspirin and statin use. In short, 300 µl whole blood was diluted with 300 µl 0.9% saline and stirred for 3 minutes at 37 ºC. Adenosine diphosphate (ADP) was added in a final concentration of 2.5 ?mol/L to initiate platelet aggregation. Aggregation was measured for 6 minutes and was reported in arbitrary aggregation units plotted against time. Also, the area under the aggregation curve (AUC) was measured. All samples were measured in the absence and presence of 200 ?mol/L indomethacin (20 min incubation with blood) to mimic the effect of aspirin use. We calculated the percentage reduction in AUC after incubation with indomethacin as an in vitro measure of the effect of aspirin use on whole blood platelet aggregation.
