Abstract

The antiplatelet effects of a novel guanidine derivative, KR-32570 ([5-(2-methoxy-5-chlorophenyl) furan-2-ylcarbonyl]guanidine), were investigated with an emphasis on the mechanisms underlying its inhibition of collagen-induced platelet aggregation. KR-32570 significantly inhibited the aggregation of washed rabbit platelets induced by collagen (10 μg/mL), thrombin (0.05 U/mL), arachidonic acid (100 μM), a thromboxane (TX) A2 mimetic agent U46619 (9,11-dideoxy-9,11-methanoepoxy-prostaglandin F2, 1 μM) and a Ca2+ ATPase inhibitor thapsigargin (0.5 μM) (IC50 values: 13.8±1.8, 26.3±1.2, 8.5±0.9, 4.3±1.7 and 49.8±1.4 μM, respectively). KR-32570 inhibited the collagen-induced liberation of [3H]arachidonic acid from the platelets in a concentration dependent manner with complete inhibition being observed at 50 μM. The TXA2 synthase assay showed that KR-32570 also inhibited the conversion of the substrate PGH2 to TXB2 at all concentrations. Furthermore, KR-32570 significantly inhibited the [Ca2+]i mobilization induced by collagen at 50 μM, which is the concentration that completely inhibits platelet aggregation. KR-32570 also decreased the level of collagen (10 μg/mL)-induced secretion of serotonin from the dense-granule contents of platelets, and inhibited the NHE-1-mediated rabbit platelet swelling induced by intracellular acidification. These results suggest that the antiplatelet activity of KR-32570 against collagen-induced platelet aggregation is mediated mainly by inhibiting the release of arachidonic acid, TXA2 synthase, the mobilization of cytosolic Ca2+ and NHE-1.
