PGE2 decreases reactivity of human platelets by activating EP2 and EP4

Abstract: Introduction: Platelet hyperreactivity associates with cardiovascular events in humans. Studies in mice and humans suggest that prostaglandin E 2 (PGE 2 ) regulates platelet activation. In mice, activation of the PGE 2 receptor subtype 3 (EP3) promotes thrombosis, but the significance of EP3 in humans is less well understood.

“…118 EP 3 is highly expressed in platelets and is involved in platelet activation 119 ; EP 3 null mice displayed increased bleeding times and were less prone to developing thromboembolisms. 120 PGE 2 acting on EP 2 and EP 4 reduces human platelet hyper-reactivity, which is associated with increased cardiovascular risk, 121 and was shown to inhibit mouse platelet aggregation. 122 PGE 2 also contributes to dyslipidemia and insulin resistance.…”

“…1). Recent studies have shown that platelet function is regulated via several prostanoid receptors expressed in platelets, including EP 2 (Kuriyama et al, 2010;Smith et al, 2010), EP 3 (Fabre et al, 2001;Ma et al, 2001), EP 4 (Iyú et al, 2010;Kuriyama et al, 2010;Philipose et al, 2010;Smith et al, 2010), IP (Murata et al, 1997), and TP (Thomas et al, 1998). Among these receptors, EP 2 and EP 4 , in addition to IP, mediate inhibitory signaling in platelets.…”

“…Thus, and as opposed to the action of EP3, EP2 and EP4 activation inhibit platelet aggregation [13] . However, the relative importance of this effect is unclear both in mice [13][14][15] and humans [13,14,[16][17][18][19][20] . Murine observations revealed that the impact of PGE2 on thrombosis, i.e.…”

“…These similarities suggest that murine data on atherothrombosis could be transferable to humans. However, a number of publications [9,19,[29][30][31][32] questioned this translation. In short, they showed that the effect of PGE2 on human platelets is restricted to inhibition, is dependent on the nature of the agonist, is variable amongst individuals or even is restricted to an in vitro feature.…”
