Protease-activated receptor-mediated platelet aggregation in acute coronary syndrome patients on potent P2Y12 inhibitors.

ABSTRACT: Background:Despite the increasing use of potent P2Y12 inhibitors, further atherothrombotic events still impair the prognosis of many acute coronary syndrome (ACS) patients. This may in part be attributable to intact platelet aggregation via the human thrombin receptors protease-activated receptor (PAR)-1 and PAR-4. Objective:We studied PAR mediated platelet aggregation in ACS patients following percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with stent implantation in a cross-sectional study. Methods:Platelet aggregation to ADP as well as to the PAR-1 agonist SFLLRN and the PAR-4 agonist AYPGKF was assessed by multiple electrode aggregometry in 194 ACS patients on dual antiplatelet therapy with aspirin and either prasugrel (n = 114) or ticagrelor (n = 80) 3 days after PCI. Results:Based on the consensus cutoff value, high on-treatment residual platelet reactivity to ADP (HRPR ADP) was observed in only 2 prasugrel-treated patients. Both patients with HRPR ADP had also a normal response to SFLLRN and AYPGKF. Among the 112 prasugrel-treated patients with adequate P2Y12 inhibition, 50 patients (45%) still had a normal response to SFLLRN, and 70 patients (63%) still had a normal response to AYPGKF. Among the 80 ticagrelor-treated patients with adequate P2Y12 inhibition, 25 patients (31%) still had a normal response to SFLLRN, and 50 (63%) still had a normal response to AYPGKF. Conclusion:Normal platelet aggregation via PAR-1 and PAR-4 is preserved in many patients with adequate P2Y12 inhibition by prasugrel and ticagrelor. The present findings may at least in part explain adverse ischemic events despite potent P2Y12 inhibition.

Project description:Essentials The rs773902 SNP results in differences in platelet protease-activated receptor (PAR4) function. The functional consequences of rs773902 were analyzed in human platelets and stroke patients. rs773902 affects thrombin-induced platelet function, PAR4 desensitization, stroke association. Enhanced PAR4 Thr120 effects on platelet function are blocked by ticagrelor. SUMMARY: Background F2RL3 encodes protease-activated receptor (PAR) 4 and harbors an A/G single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) (rs773902) with racially dimorphic allelic frequencies. This SNP mediates an alanine to threonine substitution at residue 120 that alters platelet PAR4 activation by the artificial PAR4-activation peptide (PAR4-AP) AYPGKF. Objectives To determine the functional effects of rs773902 on stimulation by a physiological agonist, thrombin, and on antiplatelet antagonist activity. Methods Healthy human donors were screened and genotyped for rs773902. Platelet function in response to thrombin was assessed without and with antiplatelet antagonists. The association of rs773902 alleles with stroke was assessed in the Stroke Genetics Network study. Results As compared with rs773902 GG donors, platelets from rs773902 AA donors had increased aggregation in response to subnanomolar concentrations of thrombin, increased granule secretion, and decreased sensitivity to PAR4 desensitization. In the presence of PAR1 blockade, this genotype effect was abolished by higher concentrations of or longer exposure to thrombin. We were unable to detect a genotype effect on thrombin-induced PAR4 cleavage, dimerization, and lipid raft localization; however, rs773902 AA platelets required a three-fold higher level of PAR4-AP for receptor desensitization. Ticagrelor, but not vorapaxar, abolished the PAR4 variant effect on thrombin-induced platelet aggregation. A significant association of modest effect was detected between the rs773902 A allele and stroke. Conclusion The F2RL3 rs773902 SNP alters platelet reactivity to thrombin; the allelic effect requires P2Y12 , and is not affected by gender. Ticagrelor blocks the enhanced reactivity of rs773902 A platelets. PAR4 encoded by the rs773902 A allele is relatively resistant to desensitization and may contribute to stroke risk.
