| Abstract |
The objectives of this study were to investigate the antithrombotic effect and physiological mechanism of okanin, a flavonoid monomer in Coreopsis tinctoria Nutt. The antithrombotic effects of okanin were determined by the anticoagulant activity test in vitro and in vivo, the venous thrombosis and arterial thrombosis test in rats. To study the antithrombotic physiological mechanisms of okanin, UV spectrophotometer and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) were used to determine the effects of three concentrations of okanin on the contents of 6-keto-prostaglandin F1α (6-Keto-PGF1α), thromboxane B2 (TXB2), endothelin-1 (ET-1), antithrombin III (AT-Ⅲ), protein C (PC) and von willebrand factor (vWF) in the plasma of rats with arterial thrombosis; ELISA was used to detect the effects of okanin on the contents of plasminogen (PLG), tissue plasminogen activator (t-PA) and type-1 plasminogen activator inhibitor (PAI-1) in the plasma of mice and Chinese white rabbits. The results showed that okanin could prolong the coagulation time in vitro and in vivo of animals (P < 0.01 in the high dose group) and the activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), prothrombin time (PT), and thrombin time (TT) of human venous blood (ATPP of medium dose group P < 0.01; PT, TT P < 0.05. P < 0.01 in the high dose group); inhibit the maximum platelet aggregation rate of rabbits (P < 0.05 in the low dose group; P < 0.01 in the medium and high dose groups), decrease the dry and wet weight of venous thrombosis and the wet weight of common carotid artery thrombosis in rats (low dose group, P < 0.05; medium and high dose groups, P < 0.01); increase the levels of 6-Keto-PGF1α, AT-Ⅲ, PLG and t-PA in animal plasma; decrease the levels of TXB2, ET-1, vWF and PAI-1 in animal plasma. It is concluded that okanin can significantly inhibit thrombosis, and its physiological mechanisms were related to affecting the activation of related coagulation factors in endogenous and exogenous coagulation pathways, affecting the physiological characteristics of platelets, repairing damaged vascular endothelial cells and enhancing the activity of the fibrinolytic system.
