Platelet, not endothelial, P-selectin is required for neointimal formation after vascular injury

Abstract
Background: P-selectin blockade significantly inhibits inflammation and neointimal formation after arterial injury; however, the independent roles of platelet and endothelial P-selectins in this process are unknown. In atherosclerosis, both platelet and endothelial cell P-selectins are important. This study was designed to determine whether P-selectin expression on platelet, endothelial, or both surfaces is critical to the inflammatory response and neointimal formation after arterial injury.
Methods and results: Using wild-type (WT) and P-selectin-knockout (Psel(-/-)) mice, we performed bone marrow transplantation to generate chimeric mice that expressed either platelet P-selectin (Plt-Psel) or endothelial P-selectin (EC-Psel). Double injury of the carotid artery was performed in these mice as well as in WT and Psel(-/-) mice. Animals were euthanized 4 or 21 days after arterial injury. Morphometric data showed that there was more neointimal formation in the WT mouse group when compared with the Psel(-/-) mouse group (0.015+/-0.004 vs 0.004+/-0.004 mm2, P<0.001). Further comparison showed significantly less neointimal area in EC-Psel mice (0.006+/-0.004 mm2) compared with Plt-Psel mice (0.011+/-0.005 mm2, P=0.026) and WT mice (0.015+/-0.004 mm2, P=0.001). No significant differences were observed between WT and Plt-Psel mice or between Psel(-/-) and EC-Psel mice. Decreased neointimal formation was accompanied by a reduced inflammatory response, as evidenced by immunostaining of RANTES and MCP-1 4 days after injury.
Conclusions: Platelet P-selectin expression, but not endothelial P-selectin, plays a crucial role in the development of neointimal formation after arterial injury, and therapeutic strategies targeting leukocyte-platelet interactions could be effective in inhibiting restenosis.
