In the present study, we investigated whether high arterial shear stresses at various exposure times or a sudden increase in shear stress introduced by a stenosis affect platelet activation and platelet microparticle formation in native human blood. We used a parallel-plate perfusion chamber device through which nonanticoagulated human blood was drawn (10 mL/min) by a pump directly from an antecubital vein through the flow channel of a perfusion chamber at wall shear rates of 420, 2600, and 10 500 s(-1). In another set of experiments, an eccentric stenosis was introduced into the flow channel. Wall shear rates of 2600 or 10 500 s(-1) at the stenosis apex were maintained at the same flow rate. The wall shear rate upstream and downstream of these stenoses was 420 s(-1). A shear rate of 420 s(-1) is within the range of those encountered in healthy small coronary arteries, whereas those of 2600 and 10 500 s(-1) are representative for vessels with various degrees of stenotic lesions. The blood was exposed to these shear rates for periods varying from 0.075 to 3.045 seconds. Platelet activation was assessed as activated glycoprotein (GP) IIb/IIIa by FITC-labeled monoclonal antibody (MAb) PAC-1 and aminophospholipid translocation by FITC-labeled annexin V. Microparticle formation was quantified by FITC-labeled MAb Y2/51 directed against GP IIIa. Significant platelet activation and formation of microparticles were observed at 10 500 s(-1) only (P
