It has been suggested that platelet hyperactivity contributes to the early
evolution of diabetic vascular disease per se. This study directly
evaluates the level of intravascular platelet activation in newly diagnosed
IDDM patients before and after tight metabolic control. Platelet activation
was determined by the Duesseldorf-III flow cytometry assay in 21
recent-onset hyperglycemic IDDM patients before insulin, after 3 days of
treatment with intravenous insulin, and after 14 and 60 days of intensified
conventional insulin therapy. The intravasal platelet activation status was
quantified by the percentage of platelets exposing the activation-dependent
molecules CD62 (P-selectin), thrombospondin (TSP), and CD63 (GP53) as well
as the activated fibrinogen receptor (GPIIB/IIIA). Fifty matched normal
subjects served as control subjects. Fourteen patients completed the 60-day
study design. After initial recompensation, near-normoglycemic control was
achieved after 14 days (fasting blood glucose, 117.0 +/- 19.0 mg/dl), and
the HbA1 concentration was 7.6 +/- 1.2% after 60 days. CD62+ (4.0 +/-
4.5%), TSP+ (2.0 +/- 1.8%), CD63+ (11.0 +/- 7.0%), and
activated-GPIIB/IIIA+ (7.6 +/- 7.7%) platelet levels were initially 5, 3.3,
5.7, and 2.8 times higher than the mean level of normal. There was no
correlation with any of the nearly normalized metabolic parameters. Thus,
more activated platelets circulate in newly diagnosed IDDM patients, which
supports the assumption of a prethrombotic condition even in disease stages
without apparent vascular damage.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
