We previously found that sodium 2-propenyl thiosulfate (2PTS) has an anti-aggregatory effect in vitro on both canine and human platelets at relatively low concentrations, but the extent of aggregation tends to return to the control level at high concentrations. To clarify the mechanism of this modulatory influence of 2PTS on the aggregation of platelets, we investigated the effects of 2PTS on cyclooxygenase (COX) activity and the reduced glutathione (GSH) concentration in canine platelets. Platelet COX activity was inhibited by 2PTS in a dose-dependent manner up to 0.1 mM, but tended to return to the control level at 1 mM. In contrast, the platelet GSH concentration decreased in a dose-dependent manner after treatment with 2PTS and a significant decrease was observed at 0.1 mM (P < 0.05) and 1 mM (P < 0.001). Furthermore, the activity of purified COX-1 was directly inhibited by addition of GSH in a dose-dependent manner. From these results, we conclude that the 2PTS-induced inhibition of platelet aggregation occurs as a result of inhibition of COX activity. Additionally, 2PTS may have a modulatory effect on platelet aggregation by affecting the platelet GSH concentration. (c) 2005 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
