Platelets from vitamin E-deficient and vitamin E-supplemented rats generate the same amount of thromboxane A2 (TxA2) when they are incubated with unesterified arachidonic acid. Platelets from vitamin E-deficient rats produced more TxA2 than platelets from vitamin E-supplemented rats when the platelets are challenged with collagen. Arterial tissue from vitamin E-deficient rats generates less prostacyclin (PGI2) than arterial tissue from vitamin E- supplemented rats. The vitamin E effect with arterial tissue is observed when the tissue is incubated with and without added unesterified arachidonic acid. These data show that arterial prostacyclin synthesis is diminished in vitamin E-deficient rats. Vitamin E, in vivo, inhibits platelet aggregation both by lowering platelet TxA2 and by raising arterial PGI2.
