The use of high pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) for the separation of radiolabeled arachidonic acid and its metabolites produced by thrombin-treated human platelets. II. Establishment of optimal assay conditions.
Authors:D Deykin  F A Russell  R Vaillancourt
Abstract:We have utilized HPLC to develop optimal conditions for assaying the transformation of arachidonic acid in thrombin-treated human platelets. In the presence of increasing amounts of albumin, the total amount of radioactivity released from thrombin-treated platelets pre-labeled with 3H-arachidonic acid is first enhanced and then inhibited. Maximal release, reflecting primarily enhanced amounts of free labeled arachidonic acid, occurs at a final albumin concentration of 0.5 mg/ml. Calcium promoted the release of all radiolabeled metabolites, but it specifically enhanced HETE formation and release. Magnesium was without effect. Cyclo-oxygenase derived products constituted the bulk of released label at short time intervals, but after ten minutes exposure to thrombin in the presence of albumin (0.5 mg/ml) and 3 mM calcium, radioactivity in the released products was equally distributed among cyclo-oxygenase derived products (TXB2 + PGD2 + HHT), HETE and free arachidonic acid.
