摘要

Platelets are central mediators of hemo-stasis and of its pathological counterpart, thrombosis. A frequently overlooked aspect of the function of platelets is their involvement in innate immunity (Fig. 1). More in general, innate immunity and inflammation are connected at multiple levels with the hemostatic cascade. In arthropods this connection is more evident, as innate immune responses, such as phagocytosis and antimicrobial activity, and activation of hemolymph coagulation are functions associated to a single cell type, the hemocyte. In vertebrates, the molecular links and the relevance of this connection are recognized but often underestimated. The paper by Wong et al. in this issue of Nature Immunology adds new vistas on the interaction between hemostasis and innate immunity by showing that platelets and Kupffer cells act together in a mechanism for the rapid disposal of selected Gram-positive blood-borne bacteria2. The occurrence and in vivo relevance of this Kupffer cell-platelet resistance pathway is supported by genetic data and state-of-the-art imaging analysis. The hemostatic process, which comprises blood coagulation and platelet activation, is a component of the antimicrobial defense system in vertebrates, similar to hemolymph clotting in arthropods. In this context, platelets are more than a component of blood hemostasis and coagulation, because they serve as active participants in innate immunity. Platelets are equipped with a vast repertoire of pattern-recognition molecules that includes the Toll-like receptors (TLRs) TLR4, TLR2 and TLR9 (ref. 3). Moreover, they express complement and Fegamma receptors (such as FcgammaRII). Platelets act as sentinels in the circulation, rapidly bind blood-borne pathogens and activate various mechanisms that potentially result in innate resistance to infection.
