Abstract:
Objective To study the mechanism of some vegetables inhibiting human platelet aggregation function.Methods Some vegetable juice was mixed(tomato juice as positive control)with platelet-rich plasma(PRP),and maximum ratio of platelet aggregation was measured after induction by agonists on the aggregometer.The expression levels of platelet activation marker were detected,including fibrinogen receptor(Fib-R),P-selectin(CD62P),and the combination amount of fibrinogen on the surface of platelet by flow cytometry to validate the inhibitory effect of platelet aggregation by animal tests.Ordinary white rabbits were randomly divided into five groups,each group was fed with saline,cooked tomato juice,blanched garlic leaves juice,Chinese cabbage juice or spinach juice,respectively.And the maximum ratio of rabbit platelet aggregation in different time were observed.Results Cooked vegetable juice couldn't inhibit human platelet aggregation induced by AA,but blanched garlic leaves juice,Chinese cabbage juice and spinach juice could inhibit human platelet aggregation obviously induced by ADP.collagen or epinephrine.The inhibition intensity of platelet aggregation increased markedly along with the increase of the concentration of the cooked vegetables juice.Cooked juice of blanched garlic leaves,Chinese cabbage,spinach could not inhibit the expression of Fib-R and CD62P,Whereas they were able to significantly decrease the amount of Fib-R and fibrinogen binding. ADP-induced rabbit platelet aggregation ratios in the group fed with cooked juice of blanched garlic leaves,Chinese cabbage or spinach were significantly lower than control group after 3,5,8 weeks,respectively.The inhibition ratios of the platelet aggregation in cooked Chinese cabbage juice group were 45.7%,53.6%,48.5% after 3,5,8 weeks,respectively.Cooked juice of blanched garlic leaves group were 10.7%,66.7%,46.3%,respectively. Cooked spinach juice group were 8.7%,21.0%,42.6%,respectively.The collagen-induced rabbit platelet aggregation ratios in the groups fed with cooked juice of blanched garlic leaves or Chinese cabbage were significantly lower than control group after 5 and 8 weeks respectively. The inhibition ratios of the platelet aggregation in cooked Chinese cabbage juice group were 54.9%,56.3%after 5 and 8 weeks,respectively. Cooked juice of blanched garlic leaves group were 28.4%and 86.7%,respectively. Cooked tomato juice could not inhibit rabbit platelet aggregation in 8 weeks. Conclusions After induced by ADP or collagen,cooked juice of blanched garlic leaves,Chinese cabbage and spinach could significantly decrease the amount of Fib-R and fibrinogen binding,and inhibit platelet aggregation function significantly.It may have potential application of therapy or prlevention of thrombotic diseases.
