... of scoparone on U46619-induced human platelet aggregation U46619 at 0.5 μM induces the optimum aggregation of human platelets, and in this study, U46619-induced platelets aggregation rate was 80.5% (Fig. 1B). However, platelets treated with scoparone (5,10,30, and 50 μM) had aggregation rates that were significantly reduced (6.5, 40.4, 85.1, and 93.8%, respectively) without cytotoxicity (Fig. 1C), which indicates that scoparone inhibited U46619-induced platelet aggregation in a dose-dependent ...

... the other hand, cyclic nucleotides is known to inhibit platelet aggregation by reducing [Ca 2+ ] i and activating cAMP-and cGMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA and PKG) [18]. In this study, scoparone significantly inhibited U46619-induced platelets aggregation without cytotoxicity (Fig. 1). In addition, scoparone increased cAMP and cGMP production in platelets in a concentrationdependent manner, and suppressed [Ca 2+ ] i concentrations. These results indicate that increased scoparone-induced cyclic nucleotides played a central role in inhibiting platelet activity by downregulating [Ca 2+ ] i . Increased cAMP and cGMP can ...

... It has been reported that scoparone inhibits IL-1βmediated inflammatory responses by modulating the PI3K/Akt/ NF-κB pathway and thus may be a therapeutic material for joint diseases [18][19][20]. A previous study has shown that scoparone has the effect of inhibiting thrombus formation through the regulation of cyclic nucleotides in U46619-induced platelets [21]. However, the role of scoparone in platelet aggregation and the mechanism of scoparone on human platelets induced by collagen are currently unknown. ...
