The association between an increased CD14

explained by the presence of the CCR2 receptor on the surface of this particular monotype subset, which regulates the

MonocyteePlatelet Interactions
Platelets move from a resting state to an activated state in response to endothelial-derived activating factors, such as ADP
and thrombin. Activated platelets adhere to damaged endothelium and locally mediate both inflammatory and thrombotic
events via the secretion of cytokines and interactions with leukocytes, which result in chemotaxis and development of an
inflammatory milieu within the arterial wall. Activated platelets form complexes with leukocytes, particularly monocytes,
as P-selectin, a platelet surface adhesion molecule expressed on the platelet plasmalemma upon activation, binds to its
ligand, P-selectin glycoprotein ligand-1 (PSGL-1) [67,68], which is constitutively expressed by circulating monocytes.
These monocyteeplatelet aggregates (MPAs) are measurable in the peripheral blood and serve as an easily quantifiable
marker of platelet activation and appear to predict cardiovascular events, such as myocardial infarction and ischemic stroke
[69,70]. Functionally, MPAs formed at the site of a vascular injury recruit circulating monocytes and facilitate their
adhesion to the endothelium where, following adhesion and migration into the subintima, they differentiate to macrophages
and contribute further to atherogenesis [71]. Platelet activation and subsequent MPA formation are increased in the
presence of high shear stress within blood vessels, such as occurs around the site of atherosclerotic lesions [72],and
circulating MPA levels in humans correlate with coronary plaque size [73] . P-selectin levels are independently associated
with carotid atherosclerotic lesions in humans [74].
Influenza immunization, which is a model of mild systemic inflammation used in otherwise healthy subjects, has been
used to demonstrate that acute inflammation leads to higher circulating levels of activated platelets and MPA formation,
which promotes expansion of the CD14
degree of circulating MPAs reported in patients with cardiovascular risk factors or established atherosclerotic disease
could represent a key event in the expansion of circulating CD16
cardiovascular disease. Targeting platelet activation could therefore counteract the development of the more proatherogenic

hypothesis, experiments conducted in ApoE
aspirin or clopidogrel administration, counteracts the blood monocytosis that accompanies disease progression in this
animal model of atherosclerosis, thus reducing inflammation [63].
Although they have no effect on circulating lipid levels, antiplatelet drugs act to disrupt pathways in which platelets
contribute to atherogenesis, including MPA-driven endothelial recruitment of monocytes and thrombus formation in areas
of endothelial damage [75,76]. The pharmacolo gical efficacy of the multiple classes of antiplatelet agents in counteracting
antiatherogenic mechanisms is variable. Administration of aspirin does not affect circulating levels of MPAs, whereas
clopidogrel appears to impair MPA formation [77,78]. Their distinct mechanisms of action may have differing effects on
the intracellular pathways that finally lead to P-selectin expression on acti vated platelets [79]. The possible role of
antiplatelet therapy in countering atherogenesis will be explored further later in this chapter.

POLYMORPHePLATELET INTERACTIONS
Other than with monocytes, activated platelets also physically interact with circulating polymorphonuclear neutrophils
(PMNs) to form heterotypic aggregates. However, platelets display a reduced binding affinity for PMNs compared with
monocytes, for reasons that remain to be precisely identified. Monocytes express a greater level of PSGL-1 than do PMNs,
and this has been proposed as a potential explanation for the differential binding of platelets to these cell types [80,81].
Moreover, while the PSGL-1/P-selectin interaction constitutes the main effector in MPA formation, which is therefore
secondary to platelet activation, PMNeplatelet aggregation can also occur in the absence of platelet activation [81,82].
Alternative receptor-to-ligand interactions act as a bridging contact between PMNs and platelets in the absence of
P-selectin expression, such as those mediated by the Mac-1 receptor on PMNs, which engages platelet receptors through
fibrinogen or directly interacts with molecules expressed on the platelet plasmalemma such as glycoprotein Ib or ICAM
[83]. These molecular interactions are favored by specific conformational changes that Mac-1 undergoes upon cell
stimulation [84], which result in increased affinity of Mac-1 to the aforementioned platelet ligands. This difference in
mechanism of plateletePMN interaction compared with MPA formation means that it is the activation status of the PMNs,
rather than that of platelets, which is the decisive factor in promoting PMNeplatelet aggregation.
The role of PMNs in atherosclerosis development and progression is, however, less defined than the contribution made
by monocytes/macrophages. Experimental evidence from murine models of atherosclerosis [85e87], as well as from
atherosclerotic models in nonhuman primates [88], ha s revealed granulocyte infiltration of plaques, based on their positive
histological staining to myeloperoxidase (MPO) [89,90]. However, the cellular source of MPO could also be attributable to
the monocyte/macrophage component [91]. These experimental findings lack confirmation in human lesions, where failure
to detect PMNs can be attributable to the inappropriateness of available techniques or to fast turnover of PMNs within
those tissues [90]. However, a putative role of PMNs in atherosclerosis could be ascribed to their ability to favor monocyte
transmigration rather than their direct colonization of atherosclerotic plaques. Evidence has emerged that the release of
chemotactic substances such as azurocidin [92] and cathepsin G [93] by PMNs promotes monocyte chemotaxis and
adhesion to endothelial cells by inducing integrin activation. In keeping with this, neutrophil depletion in animal models
has been shown to effectively counteract monocyte recruitment into atherosclerotic lesions [90].
In this context, plateletePMN interaction, which is known to enhance PMN proinflammatory activity, can be regarded
as an inducer of PMN proatherogenic acti vity. For instance, PSGL-1, along with Mac-1 engagement, stimulates PMN
degranulation [94]. However, given the poor stability of PMNeplatelet complexes compared with MPA [69], their
measurement in the peripheral blood is highly problematic. This technical limitation makes it difficult to delineate the
clinical relevance of their formation to cardiovascular outcomes. MPA level increases with no change in the concentration
of PMNeplatelet complexes in patients with acute ischemic stroke, during either the acute or the convalescent phase
[95e97]. In the context of coronary disease, increased PMNeplatelet aggregation has been detected only during acute
myocardial infarction [98] and in unstable angina [99], whereas patients with stable angina had levels of PMNeplatelet
aggregates comparable to those of control subjects
in patients with both stable and unstable coronary disease, and has been also observed in subjects with underlying
cardiovascular risk factors but no cardiovascular symptoms and in the absence of thrombotic events. The level of
PMNeplatelet complexes appears to bear little if any relation to these clinical conditions [101,102].
To summarize, the poor stability of PMNeplatelet complexes may lead to underestimation of their level during the
subacute and chronic phases of atherosclerosis and, as a consequence, of their contribution to the progression of disease.
With regard to their possible proathe rogenic role, this may be attributed to their effect on the biologica l fun ction of
myeloid cells.
[98e100]. In contrast, enhanced MPA formation is a common finding
NETRIN-1
The netrin family are a class of laminin-like proteins, which are named from the Sanskrit word “netr,” which means “one
who guides” [103]. Netrin-1, the best-characterized member of this group as of this writing, is a secreted protein that was
initially identified as an embryonic axonal guidance cue [104] and acts via binding to the “deleted in colorectal cancer” and
neogenin receptors to mediate axonal chemoattractan t activity and via the uncoordinated-5 (UNC5) receptor to induce
chemorepulsion [105e107].
In recent years, netrin-1 has emerged as a key regulator in a wide range of pathological conditions, particularly within
the field of oncology, where it has been shown to be of both diagnostic and prognostic value in many cancer subtypes;
renal disease, where netrin-1 acts as a biomarker of kidney funct ion; and cardi ovascular disease, thus making it an
attractive potential therapeutic target (Fig. 4.4).

Netrin-1 in Atherosclerosis
Netrin-1 has been identified as a fundamental modulator of atherosclerosis, although its precise role in this diseased
protective or deleteriousdhas been the subject of much debate. Animal models of hyperlipidemia using LDL
/
mice
have shown that deletion of netrin-1 in hematopoietic cells promotes macrophage migration from plaques and ultimately
results in reduced atheroma formation [108]. Macrophage-derived foam cells from human coronary artery plaques have
been shown to express both netrin-1 and its inhibitory receptor, UNC5, with the latter being responsible for the inhibitory
effect of netrin-1 on macrophage migration [108]. UNC5 activation results in macrophage retention within plaques, thus
promoting a cycle of chronic inflammation. Hypoxic conditions, which typically become increasingly present within the
FIGURE 4.4 Biological roles of netrin-1. The diverse actions of netrin-1 in cardiovascular and renal disease are presented. Netrin-1 directly modulates
survival and migration of different cell types, including cardiomyocytes, leukocytes, and endothelial and tubular renal cells, through engagement of cellspecific receptors, as indicated. These effects result in netrin-1-dependent cardioprotection and reduction of kidney damage in response to ischemia.
Netrin-1 also confers antiatherogenic protection, by repelling monocyte arterial infiltration. However, netrin-1-induced inhibition of resident macrophage
egress from atherosclerotic plaques could be detrimental. The effect of netrin-1 on neoangiogenesis may be beneficial in the context of cardiac ischemia
but detrimental for atherosclerotic plaque destabilization. The antiinflammatory action of netrin-1 is mediated by direct inhibition of leukocyte motility, as
well as by a protective effect on target organs that negatively feeds back on inflammatory cell trafficking within the tissue. *, Effect on neoangiogenesis
within plaques and ischemic myocardium needs to be explored. y, Beneficial effect on atherosclerosis onset and progression requires further investigation
since it can vary depending on disease stage. DCC, deleted in colorectal cancer receptor; EC, endothelial cell; UNC5B, uncoordinated-5 receptor B.

tunic intima as atherosclerosis develops, may also stimulate an upregulation in netrin-1 and UNC5 expression, potentiating
plaque formation [109]. Furthermore, netrin-1 upregulation protects macrophages from apoptosis in the presence of
hypoxia, thus promoting the survival of cells that will ultimately contribute to atherosclerosis progression [109].
Although the detrimental effect of netrin-1 on macrophage migration from atherosclerotic lesions is well established,
several studies have been published providing evidence that netrin-1 may additionally act in a protective capacity. Khan
et al. used a murine model of hyperlipidemia in which mice in the treatment group received intravenous netrin-1 copy DNA
and were subsequently shown to have lower levels of nitrotyrosine (a ROS marker) and several markers of macrophage and
monocyte activity, compa red with untreated control mice [110]. The netrin-1-treat ed mice demonstrated a reduction in
plaque formation, presumably through the prevention of monocytes migrating into atherosclerotic plaques [110,111]. Focal
application of netrin-1 in this situation highlights another potential pathway in atherogenesis in which modification of
netrin-1 expression may retard plaque formation. Of note, a reduction in the endothelial expression of netrin-1 under
proatherogenic conditions has been reported by van Gils et al., suggesting that suppression of netrin-1 within the
vasculature in response to proatherogenic factors could promote plaque development [108].
In 2012, Delloye-Bourgeois et al. identified that certain cancer cells produce a truncated intranuclear form of netrin-1,
as opposed to the well-characterized, full-length, secreted netrin-1 [112]. The majority of studies prior to this had not
differentiated between these isoforms, and it has since been postulated that measurement of different isoforms of netrin-1
may explain some of the conflicting data surrounding its role in atherosclerosis [79].
The Relationship Between Netrin-1 and Inflammation
Murine models of myocardial ischemiaereperfusion injury (IRI) have shown that elevated netrin-1 expression has a
cardioprotective effect, partly achieved by reducing the infiltration of neutrophils and recruitment of macrophages that
serve to further amplify the proapoptotic inflammatory response [113,114]. Similar results have been shown in models of
renal IRI as well as other proinflammatory states, including acute lung injury, peritonitis, and sepsis [115e117].
Both in vitro and in vivo studies have repeatedly demonstrated that netrin-1 and UNC5B modulate leukocyte migration
in proinflammatory states [117]. UNC5B is strongly expressed on leukocytes, and increased netrin-1 expression attenuates
leukocyte migration and leukocyte-driven inflammatory responses [117e 119]. These findings have generated interest in a
potential role for netrin-1 in the modification of inflammatory p rocesses.
Administration of netrin-1 suppresses cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) expression via regulation of nuclear factor
k-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells (NF-kB). There is a subsequent reduction in COX-2 metabolites that mediate
neutrophil infiltration, interferon-g-induced macrophage activation, and TXA
production of Th1 helper cell cytokines, which generate interferon-g [118].
The degree to which suppression of the inflammatory response is desirable and whether this could have detrimental
effects in the context of infection remain unclear.
[120]. Netrin-1 additionally suppresses the

Antiplatelet Therapy and Netrin-1
As mentioned earlier, netrin-1 modulates macrophage migration into and out of plaque sites and thus represents a potential
target for modifying progression of atherosclerosis [108]. Passacquale et al. published a series of experiments in which the
relationship between endothelial netrin-1 expression and antiplatelet therapy was explored using both in vitro and in vivo
models. They found that aspirin, but not clopidogrel, reduced vascular endothelial permeability and increased netrin-1
production in the ApoE
atherosclerotic plaques [79]. These findings suggest that antiplatelet therapy with aspirin may have the potential to modify
circulating netrin-1 levels and thus modulate atherosclerosis generation. This, together with the previously mentioned
beneficial effect of platelet inhibition on blood monocytosis observed in ApoE
interaction between platelet activity, endothelial chemorepulsion against monocyte infiltration, and monocyte phenotype
that can be positively modulated by antiplatelet strategies.
ANTIPLATELET THERAPY AS A POSSIBLE NOVEL APPROACH TO INHIBITING
ATHEROSCLEROSIS
Given the role of platelet activation in modulating monocyte phenotype, and in turn the part played by monocyte
phenotype in determining their ability to infiltrate the vascular wall and contribute to atherogenesis, an obvious question
is whether antiplatelet thera py, in addition to its ability to prevent acute ischemic events by virtue of inhibiting

thrombogenesis, may also retard the progression of atherosclerosis when administered long term. In recent years,
antiplatelet therapy has become well established in the secondary prevention of acute cardiovascular events in patients with
clinically evident preexisting atherosclerotic disease. It has also become increasingly apparent that, when used
nonselectively in the context of primary prevention, that is to say, in people with no personal history or clinical evidence of
cardiovascular disease, the relatively smaller benefit that accrues from antiplatelet therapy, although undoubtedly present,
is offset by the increase in bleeding that accompanies such therapy, so that, overall, the benefit of such therapy in the
primary prevention setting is small or nonexistent. However, it is equally clear that primary prevention represents a
spectrum: some individuals may have early atherosclerosis, whereas others may have advanced disease that simply has not
yet become manifest. Since we have no straightforward (and importantly, noninvasive) way to distinguish these, they
invariably are studied together, whereas they clearly do not represent a homogeneous population. It is likely that those with
more advanced disease will benefit from antiplatelet therapy to a much greater extent than those with mild atherosclerosis
and that any potential benefits in the former group are diluted by the relatively smaller effects seen in the latter. But even in
patients with mild disease, the question arises as to whether antiplatelet therapy might usefully be given, if those who are at
particular risk of bleeding complications are screened out.
In that respect, several studies have attempted to define predictors of major bleeding; these studies have mainly been
conducted in patients with acute coronary syndromes treated with aggressive antithrombotic therapy. Increased bleeding
has been found to associate with older age, female sex, renal impairment, anemia, prior history of bleeding, and low body
weight. Low body weight (<60 kg), age over 75 years, and a previous stroke or transient ischemic attack were predictors of
intracranial hemorrhage in the TRITON-TIMI 38 trial, conducted in patients with acute coronary syndrome scheduled for
percutaneous coronary intervention and undergoing dual antiplatelet treatment with aspirin and prasugrel [121]. A number
of risk stratification schemes for evaluation of bleeding risks in patients with acute coronary syndrome have been
developed from registry or trial cohorts. These include the CRUSADE and ACTION bleeding risk scores and a score
developed by Mehran et al. based on data from the ACUITY and HORIZONS trials; female sex, renal impairment, and
anemia are common to the three systems [122e124]. Both the CRUSADE and the ACTION bleeding risk scores predict
in-hospital major bleeding; scores of 20, 21e30, 31e40, 41e50, and >50 are indicative of very low, low, moderate,
high, and very high bleeding risks. The Mehran et al. bleeding risk score predicts 30-day non-coronary artery bypass
bleeding; patients with scores of <10, 10e14, 15e19, and 20 are classified as low, moderate, high, and very high risk of
bleeding. All of these scoring systems appear to be useful in research, though their clinical usefulness and their validity in
the clinical setting remain to be establis hed. The application of these or other algorithms, yet to be developed, for
identifying those individuals at low risk of bleeding may enable bett er identification of patients who would usefully benefit
from antiplatelet therapy in the primary prevention setting. In such patients, it is hypothesized that, not only will antiplatelet
therapy prevent acute thrombotic events, but also with long-term therapy it may retard atherosclerosis progression. The
question therefore arises: what is the evidence that antiplatelet therapy affects the pathophysiology of atherogenesis?
The available evidence for this is currently limited to animal models. In ApoE
over 10 weeks reduced the progression of atherosclerosis; by contrast, no such effect was seen with meloxicam, a COX-2
inhibitor [125]. In another study of ApoE

reduced atherosclerotic lesions, and at the same time suppressed P-selectin, platelet factor 4, RANTES, and CD40L
expression in aortic plaque in those mice; the efficacy of ginkgolide B in decreasing atherosclerosis was similar to that of
aspirin [126]. In ApoE/LDL receptor double-knockout mice, low-dose (4 mg/kg/day) aspirin decreased atherosclerosis, an
effect not seen with higher-dose (40 mg/kg/day) aspirin, which was found to possibly be explained by a greater suppressive
effect of the higher-dose aspirin on vascular generation of NO and prostacyclin [127]. Liu et al. reported that aspirin
improves plaque progression in ApoE
known to be important in atherosclerosis [128]) in murine aorta [129].
In a study by Cherdon et al., however, aspirin was ineffective in reducing atherosclerosis progression in ApoE
but these authors found that the dual thromboxane synthase inhibitor/thromboxane receptor antagonist BM-573 was
effective in this respect [130]. Most recently, it has been demonstrated, again in ApoE

reduces plaque size as well as content of monocytes/macrophages, and that its antiatherogenic effect appears to be
mediated through its ability to increase vascular endothelial synthesis of netrin-1 [79]. The weight of evidence from this
widely used murine model of atherosclerosis is therefore that antiplatelet therapy (and most of the evidence in this respect
is with aspirin) retards the progression of atherosclerosis. This is backed up from evidence in cholesterol-fed rabbits
(another widely used animal model of atherosclerosis), in which aspirin has been found to retard aortic plaque formation,
an effect that was blocked by coadministration of the COX-2 inhibitor rofecoxib [131].
In humans, the evidence that antiplatelet therapy may inhibit atherogenesis is so far all indirect; and such evidence that
exists is with aspirin. Low-dose aspirin has been found to reduce secretion by adipocytes of chemerin, a peptide that acts as

https://t.me/med1917
a chemoattractant for macrophages, among other actions, through reducing proinflammatory cytokine secretion by
macrophages [132]. In another immunization model of mild inflammation, using Salmonella typhi vaccine, aspirin has
been shown to protect against inflammation-induced endothelial dysfunction [133]. In patients with stable angina, aspirin
decreases plasma levels of several inflammatory cytokines, including IL-6, CRP, and monocyte colony-stimulating factor
[134]. The case for aspirin in primary prevention is strengthened by the findings that aspirin use in hypertensive patients is
associated with increased arterial compliance over a relatively short time frame (2 weeks) [135], and that its ability to
prevent myocardial infarction in the context of primary prevention appears to be directly related to CRP levels, indicating
that its antiinflammatory effects may be at least as important as its antithrombotic actions [136]. An as-yet unanswered
question is whether any antiatherogenic effects of aspirin, separate from its antithrombotic properties, may differ between
patients with elevated or normal inflammatory markers.
CONCLUSIONS
Although the prothrombotic activity of platelets has been well established for many decades now, it has only recently been
recognized that platelets also play an important proinflammatory role through their modulation of leukocyte activity,
through both direct and indirect mechanisms. In this context, it is now clear that not only do platelets mediate arterial
thrombotic events in the short term, but they also participate in longer term buildup of plaque. This raises the possibility
that antiplatelet therapy, using either existing drugs (which largely act on homotypic aggregation) or future therapies,
which may exert a preferential effect on heterotypic aggregation (and hence formation of leukocyteeplatelet aggregates,
including MPAs), may prove to be a useful novel therapeutic approach to preventing atherosclerosis progression; the latter
type of therapy may also circumvent the problem of increased bleeding tendency, which is the main drawback of currently
available antiplatelet therapies and which is the main limitati on to their usefulness in primary prevention. The evidence for
such an approach is now well established in animal models of atherosclerosis, but the case in humans is yet to be proved.
