Inhibitory effect of anticomplementary protein atrase B from cobra venom on platelet aggregation induced by activated complement / 中国药理学通报

ABSTRACT

Aim To investigate the inhibitory effect of atrase B on human platelet aggregation induced by activated complement.Methods By employing CVF to activate complement,the effect of atrase B on gel filtered platelet aggregation induced by activated complement was measured by turbidimetry and the expression of P-selectin and GPⅡb/Ⅲa on platelet membrane were detected by flow cytometry.Results Atrase B inhibited platelet aggregation and the expression of P-selectin and GPⅡb/Ⅲa on platelet membrane induced by activated complement.Conclusion Anticomplementary protein atrase B from Naja atra venom can significantly inhibit platelet activation and aggregation induced by activated complement.
