    Abstract RasGRP2 is calcium and diacylglycerol-regulated guanine nucleotide exchange factor I that activates Rap1, which is an essential signaling-knot in “inside-out” αIIbβ3 integrin activation in platelets. Inherited platelet function disorder caused by variants of RASGRP2 represents a new congenital bleeding disorder referred to as platelet-type bleeding disorder-18 (BDPLT18). We review here the structure of RasGRP2 and its functions in the pathophysiology of platelets and of the other cellular types that express it. We will also examine the different pathogenic variants reported so far as well as strategies for the diagnosis and management of patients with BDPLT18.

    Abstract Hereditary defects in platelet function are responsible for sometimes severe mucocutaneous hemorrhages. They are a heterogeneous group of abnormalities whose first-line diagnosis typically involves interpreting the results of in vitro light transmission aggregometry (LTA) traces. Interpretation of LTA is challenging. LTA is usually performed in specialized laboratories with expertise in platelet pathophysiology. This review updates knowledge on LTA, describing the various platelet aggregation profiles typical of hereditary platelet disorders to guide the physician in the diagnosis of functional platelet disorders.

    Abstract Platelets play a major role in primary hemostasis, where activated platelets form plugs to stop hemorrhaging in response to vessel injuries. Defects in any step of the platelet activation process can cause a variety of platelet dysfunction conditions associated with bleeding. To make an accurate diagnosis, constitutional platelet dysfunction (CPDF) should be considered once von Willebrand disease and drug intake are ruled out. CPDF may be associated with thrombocytopenia or a genetic syndrome. CPDF diagnosis is complex, as no single test enables the analysis of all aspects of platelet function. Furthermore, the available tests lack standardization, and repeat tests must be performed in specialized laboratories especially for mild and moderate forms of the disease. In this review, we provide an overview of the laboratory tests used to diagnose CPDF, with a focus on light transmission platelet aggregation (LTA), flow cytometry (FC), and granules assessment. Global tests, mainly represented by LTA, are often initially performed to investigate the consequences of platelet activation on platelet aggregation in a single step. Global test results should be confirmed by additional analytical tests. FC represents an accurate, simple, and reliable test to analyze abnormalities in platelet receptors, and granule content and release. This technique may also be used to investigate platelet function by comparing resting- and activated-state platelet populations. Assessment of granule content and release also requires additional specialized analytical tests. High-throughput sequencing has become increasingly useful to diagnose CPDF. Advanced tests or external research laboratory techniques may also be beneficial in some cases.

    Abstract Vascular homeostasis is impaired in various diseases thereby contributing to the progression of their underlying pathologies. The endothelial immediate early gene Apolipoprotein L domain-containing 1 (APOLD1) helps to regulate endothelial function. However, its precise role in endothelial cell biology remains unclear. We have localized APOLD1 to endothelial cell contacts and to Weibel-Palade bodies (WPB) where it associates with von Willebrand factor (VWF) tubules. Silencing of APOLD1 in primary human endothelial cells disrupted the cell junction-cytoskeletal interface, thereby altering endothelial permeability accompanied by spontaneous release of WPB contents. This resulted in an increased presence of WPB cargoes, notably VWF and angiopoietin-2 in the extracellular medium. Autophagy flux, previously recognized as an essential mechanism for the regulated release of WPB, was impaired in the absence of APOLD1. In addition, we report APOLD1 as a candidate gene for a novel inherited bleeding disorder across three generations of a large family in which an atypical bleeding diathesis was associated with episodic impaired microcirculation. A dominant heterozygous nonsense APOLD1:p.R49* variant segregated to affected family members. Compromised vascular integrity resulting from an excess of plasma angiopoietin-2, and locally impaired availability of VWF may explain the unusual clinical profile of APOLD1:p.R49* patients. In summary, our findings identify APOLD1 as an important regulator of vascular homeostasis and raise the need to consider testing of endothelial cell function in patients with inherited bleeding disorders without apparent platelet or coagulation defects.

    Abstract Delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI) following aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) is a major cause of complications and death. Here, we set out to identify high-performance predictive biomarkers of DCI and its underlying metabolic disruptions using metabolomics and lipidomics approaches. This single-center prospective observational study enrolled 61 consecutive patients with severe aSAH; among them, 22 experienced a DCI. Nine patients without aSAH were included as validation controls. Blood and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) were sampled within the first 24 h after admission. We identified a panel of 20 metabolites that, together, showed high predictive performance for DCI. This panel of metabolites included lactate, cotinine, salicylate, 6 phosphatidylcholines, and 4 sphingomyelins. The interplay of the metabolome and the lipidome found between CSF and plasma in our patients underscores that aSAH and its associated DCI complications can extend beyond cerebral implications, with a peripheral dimension as well. As an illustration, early biological disruptions that might explain the subsequent DCI found systemic hypoxia driven mainly by higher blood lactate, arginine, and proline metabolism likely associated with vascular NO and disrupted ceramide/sphingolipid metabolism. We conclude that targeting early peripheral hypoxia preceding DCI could provide an interesting strategy for the prevention of vascular dysfunction.
