Inhibition of thrombin- and collagen-induced phosphoinositides breakdown in rabbit platelets by a PAF antagonist--denudatin B, an isomer of kadsurenone.
Denudatin B, an isomer of kadsurenone, was isolated from Magnolia fargesii. It inhibited the aggregation and ATP release of washed rabbit platelets caused by platelet-activating factor (PAF) in a concentration-dependent manner. The IC50 on PAF (2 ng/ml)-induced aggregation was about 10 micrograms/ml. High concentration of denudatin B (greater than 50 micrograms/ml) also inhibited the aggregation and ATP release of platelets caused by ADP, collagen, arachidonic acid and thrombin. However, shape change of platelets still existed. Prolongation of the incubation time with platelets could not cause further inhibition, and the aggregability of platelets could be restored after denudatin B was washed out from platelets. Thrombin-induced thromboxane B2 formation was almost completely suppressed. In the absence of extracellular calcium (EGTA 1 mM), ATP release caused by thrombin was inhibited. Thrombin-induced rise of the intracellular calcium concentration was suppressed by denudatin B, but not by BN52021 or kadsurenone. The generation of inositol phosphate in washed platelets caused by collagen, PAF and thrombin was also suppressed. The data indicate that PAF antagonist denudatin B has nonspecific antiplatelet action at high concentration by inhibiting phosphoinositides breakdown induced by collagen and thrombin.
