Estrogen receptor beta (PER) is the predominant estrogen receptor in platelets. Experiments were designed to define phenotypic changes in platelets with aging following deletion of beta ER (beta ERKO). Blood was collected from wild-type and beta ERKO female mice at 4-7 (young) and 24-25 (aged) months of age. In young animals, total number of platelets, number of platelets containing RNA (reticulated platelets), aggregation, dense body adenosine triphosphate secretion, and alpha granular secretion were the same in both groups. With aging, total number of platelets decreased but reticulated platelets increased in beta ERKO mice; aggregation and dense granule adenosine triphosphate secretion decreased whereas basal expression of fibrinogen receptors increased with age in wild-type and beta ERKO mice. Basal expression of P-selectin and annexin V binding increased with aging only in beta ERKO mice; thrombin did not increase expression in these mice. Therefore, deletion of beta ER is associated with specific platelet functions, which are expressed only with age-associated reproductive senescence.
