Maxillary sinus lift and bone graft are used to reconstruct atrophic maxilla molar area for endosseous dental implants. Many different grafting materials and techniques can be used for maxillary sinus bone graft. Bio-$Oss^{(R)}$ has been proposed as bone substitute and successfully utilized as osteoconductive filler. Platelet rich plasma (PRP) is an autologous material with many growth factors, such as PDGF, TGF-$\beta$, IGF, VEGF, facilitating bone healing process. And Platelet poor plasma (PPP) is the by-product in procedure of producing PRP. Six rabbits were used as experimental animal. Both maxillary sinus were grafted with Bio-$Oss^{(R)}$ and PRP, and Bio-$Oss^{(R)}$ and PPP. Rabbits were sacrificed at 4, 8 and 12 weeks. The grafting sites were evaluated by histomorphometric analysis. As a result, using PRP showed excellent bone formation in the early stage, but no further significant effect after that. In late stage, the ability of bone formation of using PRP was even worse than using PPP. The further studies need to be considered in this case.

The anti-coagulant activity of ilexoside D isolated from the roots of ilex pubescens Hook. et Am. was investigated in in vivo models of blood coagulation in rats. On oral administration, ilexoside D prolonged the bleeding time and the whole blood recalcified clotting time, but not the plasma recalcified clotting time. In vitor, ilexoside D did not affect the recalciffed clotting times of whole blood, platelet-rich plasma(PRP), and platelet-poor plasma(PPP), while in the presence of tissue factor the compound prologed the reduced proth-rombin times of whole blood, PRP and PPP in the dose-dependent manner. These results indicate that ilexoside D has the anit-tissue factor activity as well as the antithromobotic activity.

Objectives : Serum and plasma BDNF levels have been shown to be decreased in patients with mood disorder such as major depressive disorder and bipolar disorder. We investigated whether platelet BDNF levels would be lower in patients with acute bipolar manic episode compared with those of normal controls. Methods : BDNF levels were examined in platelet-rich plasma(PRP) and platelet-poor plasma(PPP) in 20 healthy controls and 20 hospitalized patients who were diagnosed as bipolar I disorder, most recent episode manic using a Structured Clinical Interview for DSM-IV. And severity of manic symptoms was measured using Young Mania Rating Scale(YMRS). Platelet BDNF level was calculated by subtracting PPP BDNF from PRP BDNF level, and dividing the result by the total platelet count, and it was expressed as pg/$10^6$ platelet. Results : Platelet BDNF levels were significantly lower in patients with acute bipolar manic episode(4.55${\pm}$3.36pg/$10^6$ platelet) than in normal controls(6.84${\pm}$2.32pg/$10^6$ platelet)(p=0.008). However we failed to reveal the significant negative correlation between platelet BDNF levels and YMRS scores in patients with acute bipolar episode. Conclusion : Our finding suggests that there is a decrease in the platelet BDNF of patients with acute bipolar manic episode.

The purpose of this study was to determine the possibility of sphingolipid as a diagnostic marker for Myocardiac Infarction(MI), atherosclerosis-related cardiovascular disease. Sphingolipids are known to playa role in the occurrence of atherosclerosis in human blood vessels. Platelet-poor plasma(PPP) and washed platelets were prepared from healthy volunteers and MI patients, and sphingolipids analyzed. (omitted)

카드뮴중독으로 혈소판응집이 항진되어 고혈압 또는 동맥경화증이 발생한다는 연구보고를 감안하여 가토와 흰쥐의 생체내 실험으로서 미세혈전의 형성, Malondialdehyde(MDA) 및 thromboxane $B_2(TXB_2)$치에 미치는 카드뮴의 효과를 검토하고, in vitro실험으로 카드뮴을 처치한 가토 대동맥절편이 혈소판응집에 미치는 영향을 관찰하였으며, prostacyclin의 합성능력을 측정하여 그 결과를 다음과 같이 요약하였다. 1)Cadmium chloride 2mg/kg을 매주 동물의 복강내에 주입하였을 때 미세혈전형성이 증가되었다. 2) 카드뮴 중독동물의 platelet-rich plasma (PRP)는 MDA와 $TXB_2$형성이 정상동물에서 보다 현저히 증가되었다. 3) 카드뮴을 중독시킨 가토의 platelet-poor plasma (PPP)에서의 lipid peroxide치는 대조군과 차이가 없었다. 4) In vitro 실험으로, 가토대동맥 절편에서의 6-keto-$PGF_{1{\alpha}}$의 생성은 카드뮴 농도에 비례하여 억제되었고 이때 혈소판 응집률의 증가와 평행하였다. 5) 이상의 결과로서 카드뮴은 동맥내피세포에서 prostacyclin 합성을 억제할 뿐만 아니라 혈소판에서 $TXA_2$합성을 촉진시켜 그 결과로 혈소판 응집률을 증가시켰음을 알 수 있었다.

This study investigated the effect of ethanol extracts of horsetail, alfalfa, ortie, chêne and aleppo oak on blood coagulation in vitro. Extraction was performed by the maceration method. Extracts were mixed with platelet and plasma, then prothrombin time (PT), activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) and platelet aggregation tests were conducted. Alfalfa extract had a dose-dependent effect on the PT. Ortie, and horsetail, reduced the PT significantly compared to control group. Alfalfa, horsetail, and ortie reduced the APTT, but their effect was insignificant compared to the control group. The pooled extract showed the highest effect compared to the single extracts in a dose-dependent manner. Horsetail and alfalfa induced platelet aggregation in response to arachidonic acid but not in response to collagen. In the case of ortie, no aggregation occurred regarding the arachidonic acid, and incomplete was observed in response to collagen. Interestingly, blood clotting occurred immediately after adding the chêne, aleppo oak and the pooled extract, and therefore platelet poor plasma (PPP) and platelet rich plasma (PRP) became jelly. Generally, chêne and aleppo oak, as well as pooled extract, were more effective in inducing both primary and secondary coagulation pathways via shortening the PT and APTT, and induction of platelet aggregation.
