Exogenous carbon monoxide suppresses LPS-induced platelet SNAREs complex assembly and α-Granule exocytosis via integrin αIIbβ3-mediated PKCθ/Munc18a pathway
Oncotarget(2020)
Abstract
Activation of coagulation occurs in sepsis and contributes to the development of thrombosis. Platelet α-granule exocytosis plays an important role in septic coagulation abnormalities. The present study aimed to investigate the effects and the underlying mechanisms of exogenous carbon monoxide, carbon monoxide-releasing molecules II (CORM-2)-liberated CO, on suppressing platelet α-granule exocytosis in sepsis. It was shown that CORM-2 weakened α-granule membrane fusion with platelet plasma membrane and attenuated α-granule contents exocytosis in LPS-Induced platelet. Further studies revealed that CORM-2 suppressed the expression of integrin αβ in platelets stimulated by LPS. This was accompanied by a decrease in production and phosphorylation of PKCθ and Munc18a, SNARE complex assembly and subsequently platelet α-granule exocytosis. Taken together, we suggested that the potential mechanism of suppressive effect of CORM-2 on LPS-induced platelet SNAREs complex assembly and α-Granule Exocytosis might involve integrin αβ-mediated PKCθ/Munc18a pathway activation.
