The effect of magnesium sulphate infusion on ex vivo platelet aggregation in 11 female Yorkshire swine was observed using platelet-rich plasma and different agonists (ADP 5 mM; ADP 10 mM and collagen 1 mg/ml). Infusion of 1 g MgSO4 over 1 h produced a significant decrease in platelet aggregability. A dose-dependent effect of different ADP concentrations on platelet aggregation was noticed. Platelet inhibition was most consistent when using ADP 5 mM. We estimate this concentration of agonist as optimal in swine. The swine model is a good choice for investigation of in vivo platelet activation, especially with regard to cardiovascular research. We conclude that there is an inhibitory effect of supplemental magnesium on ex vivo platelet aggregation in swine with initial normomagnesaemia.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007262 Infusions, Intravenous The long-term (minutes to hours) administration of a fluid into the vein through venipuncture, either by letting the fluid flow by gravity or by pumping it. Drip Infusions,Intravenous Drip,Intravenous Infusions,Drip Infusion,Drip, Intravenous,Infusion, Drip,Infusion, Intravenous,Infusions, Drip,Intravenous Infusion
D008278 Magnesium Sulfate A small colorless crystal used as an anticonvulsant, a cathartic, and an electrolyte replenisher in the treatment of pre-eclampsia and eclampsia. It causes direct inhibition of action potentials in myometrial muscle cells. Excitation and contraction are uncoupled, which decreases the frequency and force of contractions.

D010974 Platelet Aggregation The attachment of PLATELETS to one another. This clumping together can be induced by a number of agents (e.g., THROMBIN; COLLAGEN) and is part of the mechanism leading to the formation of a THROMBUS. Aggregation, Platelet
D010975 Platelet Aggregation Inhibitors Drugs or agents which antagonize or impair any mechanism leading to blood platelet aggregation, whether during the phases of activation and shape change or following the dense-granule release reaction and stimulation of the prostaglandin-thromboxane system.

D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.

D013552 Swine Any of various animals that constitute the family Suidae and comprise stout-bodied, short-legged omnivorous mammals with thick skin, usually covered with coarse bristles, a rather long mobile snout, and small tail. Included are the genera Babyrousa, Phacochoerus (wart hogs), and Sus, the latter containing the domestic pig (see SUS SCROFA).
