Abstract:Factors affecting platelet survival are poorly understood. To explore the hypothesis that platelet lifespan correlates with the lifespan of a key housekeeping process we subjected human platelets to in vitro incubation at 37°C for 24 h to several days under hypoglycaemic conditions. Viability was assessed both by microscopy and flow cytometry using calcein-AM and/or FM4-64. In keeping with previous data we found that, under control conditions platelets died at a linear rate during 120 h of incubation. Hypoglycaemia did not affect the death rate but did lead to an increase in the frequency of platelets unable to accumulate the mitochondrial potentiometric dye 10-Nonyl Acridine Orange (NAO) and promoted platelet death in response to the pro-apoptotic molecule BH3I-2′. Hypoglycaemia led to an increase in intraplatelet calcium that could be prevented 2-aminoethoxydiphenylborate (2-APB), a store operated calcium channel (SOCC) blocker. However, this agent was unable to rescue the platelets' ability to accumulate NAO. These data suggest that extracellular glucose is utilised by platelets for calcium homeostasis and maintenance of mitochondrial integrity and that hypoglycaemia primes platelets for death. © 2007 Informa UK Ltd.
