摘要
Aims: To evaluate the expression profile of Bcl-x L and Bax in platelets treated with ITP plasma. Methods:Normal washed platelets were treated with plasma from 20 active ITP patients or 10 age and gender-matched control to mimic the ITP in vivo environment. Mitochondrial depolarization, platelet apoptosis and activation were measured by flow cytometry. Expression of Bcl-x L, Bax and caspase-3 were also measured by quantitative real-time PCR and western blot. Results:Our study demonstrated increased mitochondrial depolarization, platelet apoptosis and activation in platelets after treated with ITP plasma in comparison to control. In addition, decreased expression of Bcl-x L, increased expression of Bax and activity of caspase-3 were also observed. Furthermore, a negative correlation of Bcl-x L with Bax was found in platelets treated with ITP plasma. Conclusions: Imbalanced expression of Bcl-x L and Bax might be associated with platelet apoptosis in ITP and therapeu-tically targeting them might be a novel approach in the treatment of ITP.
