【 摘 要 】

Background-Platelet hyperactivity induced by inflammation is a known risk factor for atherosclerosis and thrombosis, but its underlying mechanisms remain poorly understood. Methods and Results-The signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) was activated in collagen-stimulated platelets. Activated STAT3 served as a protein scaffold to facilitate the catalytic interaction between the kinase Syk (spleen tyrosine kinase) and the substrate PLC gamma 2 to enhance collagen-induced calcium mobilization and platelet activation. The same interaction of STAT3 with Syk and PLC gamma 2 was detected in HEK293 cells transfected with cDNAs for Syk and PLC gamma 2 and stimulated with interleukin-6. Pharmacological inhibition of STAT3 blocked approximate to 50% of collagen- and a collagen-related peptide-induced but not thrombin receptor-activating peptide- or ADP-induced aggregation and approximate to 80% of thrombus formation of human platelets on a collagen matrix. This in vitro phenotype was reproduced in mice infused with STAT3 inhibitors and mice with platelet-specific STAT3 deficiency. By forming a complex with its soluble receptor, the proinflammatory cytokine interleukin-6 enhanced the collagen-induced STAT3 activation in human platelets. Conclusions-These data demonstrate a nontranscriptional activity of STAT3 that facilitates a crosstalk between proinflammatory cytokine and hemostasis/thrombosis signals in platelets. This crosstalk may be responsible for the platelet hyperactivity found in conditions of inflammation. (Circulation. 2013;127:476-485.)
