ABSTRACT
This study was aimed to explore the change of aggregation and activation of platelets loaded with epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG). The platelets were treated by loading buffer with different concentrations of EGCG (0, 2.5, 5, 7.5, 10, 12.5, 15, 20 and 30 mmol/L) and were divided into 2.5, 5, 10 mmol/L groups and control group. The physiological and biochemical functions of platelets were observed, including recovery rate, aggregation and activation of platelets. The platelet counts were determined by Counter Cell-DYN 1200. The aggregation activities were tested through turbidimetry, the platelet apoptosis was detected by flow cytometry. The results showed that the concentrations of EGCG loading in platelets of 2.5, 5 and 10 mmol/L groups were 0.4006 ± 0.12, 1.0527 ± 0.1503, 1.6902 ± 0.1112 mmol/L respectively. Along with the increasing of EGCG concentrations in loading-buffer, the EGCG absorbed by platelets increased too. When the concentration of EGCG in loading-buffer exceeded 15 mmol/L, the EGCG absorbed by platelets did not increase. The recovery rate in 2.5 mmol/L loading buffer group was 82.45 ± 0.360% which was lower than that in control group (90.33 ± 1.115%) (p < 0.05). As compared with control group, the recovery rate in 5 mmol/L loading buffer group (57.51 ± 2.468)% and 10 mmol/L loading buffer group (47.45 ± 2.030)% were even significantly lower (p < 0.01). When ADP was used as the inducer, the maximal aggregation rate (MAR) in control group was (63.6 ± 4.037)%, which was higher than that in other EGCG-loading groups (p < 0.01). And the aggregation activity of platelets negatively correlated with the concentration of EGCG in loading-buffer. When THR was used as the inducer, the MAR in control group was (89.3 ± 6.533)% and higher than that those in other groups (p < 0.05), especially in groups with loading-buffer higher than 10 mmol/L EGCG (70.1 ± 5.400%) (p < 0.01). In the experiment of cellular apoptosis, the early apoptosis easy appeared in platelets loaded with EGCG. It is concluded that the EGCG loading in platelets markedly influences the physiological and biochemical functions of platelets, the apoptosis easy occurs in platelets loaded with EGCG. The EGCG accelerates the course of platelet apoptosis.
