Abstract
OBJECTIVE To explore the feasibility of using a disposable platelet storage bag containing a leukocyte filter to prepare leukocyte-depleted pooled platelet concentrates with the buffy coat method. METHODS 150 bags of whole blood samples (400 mL/bag) were stored overnight at 22 ± 2°C, and buffy coats were separated on Day 2, then 5 units of ABO homotypic buffy coat and 1 unit of plasma were pooled into a disposable platelet storage bag containing a leukocyte filter to prepare leukocyte-depleted pooled platelet concentrates and stored in a Platelet Agitator. On Day 2, 4, 5 and 7 after the collection of whole blood, platelet content, pH value, pO2, pCO2, glucose (GLU), ATP, and other quality indicators were measured. RESULTS The quality indicators of leukocyte-depleted pooled platelet concentrates met the requirements for leukocyte-depleted aphaeresis platelets in the Chinese national standard Quality Requirements for Whole Blood and Blood Components (GB18469-2012). With the prolongation of storage time, MPV and PDW of platelets gradually increased, pH value, bicarbonate, and GLU gradually decreased, LA, LDH, and ATP gradually increased, pO2 slightly increased, pCO2 decreased, and HSR had no significant change. ESC decreased significantly on Day 7, CD62p decreased first and then increased, sP-selectin and GP V increased first and then decreased, but the results on Day 7 were higher than those on Day 2. CONCLUSION The quality of leukocyte-depleted pooled platelet concentrates prepared by the buffy coat method using disposable platelet storage bags containing a leukocyte filter was comparable to that of leukocyte-depleted apheresis platelets, and could be used clinically.

Abstract
Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) commonly precedes ventricular remodeling, heart failure. Few dynamic molecular signatures have gained widespread acceptance in mainstream clinical testing despite the discovery of many potential candidates. These unmet needs with respect to biomarker and drug discovery of AMI necessitate a prioritization. We enrolled patients with AMI aged between 30 and 70. RNA-seq analysis was performed on the peripheral blood mononuclear cells collected from the patients at three time points: 1 day, 7 days, and 3 months after AMI. PLC/LC-MS analysis was conducted on the peripheral blood plasma collected from these patients at the same three time points. Differential genes and metabolites between groups were screened by bio-informatics methods to understand the dynamic changes of AMI in different periods. We obtained 15 transcriptional and 95 metabolite expression profiles at three time points after AMI through high-throughput sequencing. AMI-1d: enrichment analysis revealed the biological features of 1 day after AMI primarily included acute inflammatory response, elevated glycerophospholipid metabolism, and decreased protein synthesis capacity. Phosphatidylcholine (PC) and phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) might stand promising biomarkers to differentiate post-AMI stage. Anti-inflammatory therapy during the acute phase is an important direction for preventing related pathology. AMI-7d: the biological features of this stage primarily involved the initiation of cardiac fibrosis response and activation of platelet adhesion pathways. Accompanied by upregulated TGF-beta signaling pathway and ECM receptor interaction, GP5 help assess platelet activation, a potential therapeutic target to improve haemostasis. AMI-3m: the biological features of 3 months after AMI primarily showed a vascular regeneration response with VEGF signaling pathway, NOS3 and SHC2 widely activated, which holds promise for providing new therapeutic approaches for AMI. Our analysis highlights transcriptional and metabolomics signatures at different time points after MI, which deepens our understanding of the dynamic biological responses and associated molecular mechanisms that occur during cardiac repair.

Abstract
Glycoprotein (GP) Ib-IX-V is the second most abundant platelet receptor for thrombin and other ligands crucial for hemostasis and thrombosis. Its activity is involved in platelet adhesion to vascular injury sites and thrombin-induced platelet aggregation. GPIb-IX-V is a heteromeric complex composed of four subunits, GPIbα, GPIbβ, GPV and GPIX, in a stoichiometric ratio that has been wildly debated. Despite its important physiological roles, the overall structure and molecular arrangement of GPIb-IX-V are not yet fully understood. Here, we purify stable and functional human GPIb-IX-V complex from reconstituted EXPi293F cells in high homogeneity, and perform biochemical and structural characterization of this complex. Single-particle cryo-electron microscopy structure of GPIb-IX-V is determined at ∼11 Å resolution, which unveils the architecture of GPIb-IX-V and its subunit organization. Size-exclusion chromatography-multi-angle static light scattering analysis reveals that GPIb-IX-V contains GPIb-IX and GPV at a 1:1 stoichiometric ratio and surface plasmon resonance assays show that association of GPV leads to slow kinetics of thrombin binding to GPIb-IX-V. Taken together, our results provide the first three-dimensional architecture of the intact GPIb-IX-V complex, which extends our understanding of the structure and functional mechanism of this complex in hemostasis and thrombosis.

Abstract
PURPOSE There is a growing body of evidence for a prothrombotic tendency in patients with primary biliary cholangitis (PBC). The aim of the study was to evaluate coagulation disorders in patients with early stage PBC compared to healthy controls and evaluation of their relationship with clinical data, with particular emphasis on minimal hepatic encephalopathy (MHE). PATIENTS AND METHODS Fifty-one participants (PBC group - 38 patients, all patients but one Child-Pugh A; control group - 13 healthy controls) were included in our prospective, single center study. We assessed the plasma levels of sGPV, plasma procoagulant phospholipids (PPL) and rotational thromboelastometry (ROTEM) profiles in all study participants. Porto-systemic encephalopathy syndrome test was used to assess MHE. RESULTS The sGPV levels were higher in the PBC group compared to the controls: 36.07 ± 11.32 ng/mL vs 27.04 ± 11.72 ng/mL, p = 0.031. The PPL level was lower in the PBC group compared to controls resulting in increased clotting time in a factor Xa-based coagulation assay: 54.65 (47.83-58.83) sec. vs 45.90 (43.3-50.5) sec., p = 0.0065. PPL levels were correlated with platelet count (rho = -0.46, p = 0.001). ROTEM parameters did not differ significantly between groups. Coagulation parameters did not differ significantly between patients with and without MHE. CONCLUSIONS We have showed increased levels of sGPV - a plasma marker of platelet activation by thrombin in patients with early stage PBC compared to healthy controls. We found no relationship between the coagulation disorders and the occurrence of MHE. The PPL level was lower in the PBC group.

Abstract
Glycoprotein V (GPV) is a highly expressed 82 KDa platelet surface transmembrane protein which is loosely attached to the GPIb-IX complex. Despite remaining questions concerning its function, GPV presents several unique features which have repercussions in hematology, atherothrombosis, immunology and transfusion. GPV is specifically expressed in platelets and megakaryocytes and is an ideal marker and reporter gene for the late stages of megakaryopoiesis. The ectodomain of GPV can be released by a number of proteases, namely thrombin, elastase and ADAM10 and 17. Although it was originally proposed as a thrombin receptor, this hypothesis was abandoned since thrombin activation was preserved after blockade of GPV cleavage and in Gp5 knockout mice. The combined potential of GPV to reflect the direct action of thrombin, platelet exposure to strong agonists and inflammatory conditions has led one to evaluate its utility as a marker in the context of atherothrombosis. Increased plasma levels of soluble GPV have notably been recorded in myocardial infarction, stroke and venous thromboembolism. It is also highly valued in transfusion to monitor platelet storage lesions. GPV presents several polymorphisms, which are a possible source of alloantibodies, while autoantibodies have been frequently detected in immune thrombocytopenia. The real biological function of this glycoprotein nevertheless remains an enigma, despite the respectively decreased and increased responses to low concentrations of collagen and thrombin observed in Gp5 knockout mice. Current studies are exploring its role in modulating general or VWF-induced platelet signaling, which could bear relevance in thrombosis and platelet clearance.

Abstract
The activities of adhesion and signaling receptors in platelets are controlled by several mechanisms. An important way of regulation is provided by proteolytic cleavage of several of these receptors, leading to either a gain or a loss of platelet function. The proteases involved are of different origins and types: (i) present as precursor in plasma, (ii) secreted into the plasma by activated platelets or other blood cells, or (iii) intracellularly activated and cleaving cytosolic receptor domains. We provide a comprehensive overview of the proteases acting on the platelet membrane. We describe how these are activated, which are their target proteins, and how their proteolytic activity modulates platelet functions. The review focuses on coagulation-related proteases, plasmin, matrix metalloproteinases, ADAM(TS) isoforms, cathepsins, caspases, and calpains. We also describe how the proteolytic activities are determined by different platelet populations in a thrombus and conversely how proteolysis contributes to the formation of such populations.

Abstract
This paper investigates whether glycoprotein 6 (GP6) gene polymorphisms are a risk factor for recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) in Korean women. Genotypes were determined by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism and real-time polymerase chain reaction amplification. We identified five polymorphisms in the GP6 gene: rs1654410 T>C, rs1671153 T>G, rs1654419 G>A, rs12610286 A>G, and rs1654431 G>A. GP6 rs1654410 CC was associated with decreased RPL risk (adjusted odds ratio = 0.292, 95% confidence interval = 0.105–0.815, p = 0.019), and recessive genotypes were also significantly associated with decreased RPL risk (adjusted odds ratio = 0.348, 95% confidence interval = 0.128−0.944, p = 0.038). GP6 rs1654419 GA was associated with decreased RPL risk (adjusted odds ratio = 0.607, 95% confidence interval = 0.375-0.982, p = 0.042), and dominant genotypes were significantly associated with decreased RPL risk (adjusted odds ratio = 0.563, 95% confidence interval = 0.358−0.885, p = 0.013). Altogether, the genotype frequencies of GP6 rs1654410 T>C and GP6 rs1654419 G>A were significantly different between RPL patients and control participants. Therefore, although GP6 polymorphisms may be useful as biomarkers of RPL, additional studies with heterogeneous cohorts are required to better understand the influence of GP6 and assess its performance as a biomarker.

Abstract
Abstract
The ability to upregulate and downregulate surface-exposed proteins and receptors is a powerful process that allows a cell to instantly respond to its microenvironment. In particular, mobile cells in the bloodstream must rapidly react to conditions where infection or inflammation are detected, and become proadhesive, phagocytic, and/or procoagulant. Platelets are one such blood cell that must rapidly acquire and manage proadhesive and procoagulant properties in order to execute their primary function in hemostasis. The regulation of platelet membrane properties is achieved via several mechanisms, one of which involves the controlled metalloproteolytic release of adhesion receptors and other proteins from the platelet surface. Proteolysis effectively lowers receptor density and reduces the reactivity of platelets, and is a mechanism to control robust platelet activation. Recent research has also established clear links between levels of platelet receptors and platelet lifespan. In this review, we will discuss the current knowledge of metalloproteolytic receptor regulation in the vasculature with emphasis on the platelet receptor system to highlight how receptor density can influence both platelet function and platelet survival.

Abstract
Platelets have a major role in hemostasis and an emerging role in biological processes including inflammation and immunity. Many of these processes require platelet adhesion and localization at sites of tissue damage or infection and regulated platelet activation, mediated by platelet adheso-signalling receptors, glycoprotein (GP) Ib-IX-V and GPVI. Work from a number of laboratories has demonstrated that levels of these receptors are closely regulated by metalloproteinases of the A Disintegrin And Metalloproteinase (ADAM) family, primarily ADAM17 and ADAM10. It is becoming increasingly evident that platelets have important roles in innate immunity, inflammation, and in combating infection that extends beyond processes of hemostasis. This overview will examine the molecular events that regulate levels of platelet receptors and then assess ramifications for these events in settings where hemostasis, inflammation, and infection processes are triggered.

Abstract
Pre-eclampsia (PE) is a human pregnancy-specific disorder of unknown aetiology. Although the quantitative relationship between platelet aggregation in PE is not clearly defined yet, we aimed to investigate the possible relationship between PE and platelet glycoprotein V (GPV), which is an integral platelet membrane protein involved in the function of the GPIb-V-IX receptor. Fifty patients with PE and 37 normotensive pregnant women (controls) were enrolled in this study. Fasting blood samples were collected and soluble GPV (sGPV) levels were determined using a commercially available enzyme immunoassay. No statistically significant difference in sGPV was found between PE patients and control subjects. There was no correlation between sGPV and platelet counts or between pregnancy duration and platelet counts. Further clinical and experimental investigations are needed to elucidate the pathological processes involved in the development of PE in complicated pregnancies.

Abstract
Protein disulfide isomerase (PDI) family members including PDI and ERp57 emerge as novel targets for anti-thrombotic treatments, but chemical agents with selectivity remain to be explored. We previously reported a novel derivative of danshensu (DSS), known as ADTM, displayed strong cardioprotective effects against oxidative stress-induced cellular injury in vitro and acute myocardial infarct in vivo. Herein, using chemical proteomics approach, we identified ERp57 as a major target of ADTM. ADTM displayed potent inhibitory effects on the redox activity of ERp57, inhibited the adenosine diphosphate (ADP)-induced expressions of P-selectin and αIIbβ3 integrin, and disrupted the interaction between ERp57 and αIIbβ3. In addition, ADTM inhibited both arachidonic acid (AA)-induced and ADP-induced platelet aggregation in vitro. Furthermore, ADTM significantly inhibited rat platelet aggregation and thrombus formation in vivo. Taken together, ADTM represents a promising candidate for anti-thrombotic therapy targeting ERp57.

Abstract
At the same time as biophysical and omics approaches are drilling deeper into the molecular details of platelets and other blood cells, as well as their receptors and mechanisms of regulation, there is also an increasing awareness of the functional overlap between human vascular systems. Together, these studies are redefining the intricate networks linking haemostasis and thrombosis with inflammation, infectious disease, cancer/metastasis and other vascular pathophysiology. The focus of this state-of-the-art review is some of the newer advances relevant to primary haemostasis. Of particular interest, platelet-specific primary adhesion-signalling receptors and associated activation pathways control platelet function in flowing blood and provide molecular links to other systems. Platelet glycoprotein (GP)Ibα of the GPIb-IX-V complex and GPVI not only initiate platelet aggregation and thrombus formation by primary interactions with von Willebrand factor and collagen, respectively, but are also involved in coagulation, leucocyte engagement, bacterial or viral interactions, and are relevant as potential risk markers in a range of human diseases. Understanding these systems in unprecedented detail promises significant advances in evaluation of individual risk, in new diagnostic or therapeutic possibilities and in monitoring the response to drugs or other treatment.

Abstract
Quantity, quality, and lifespan are 3 important factors in the physiology, pathology, and transfusion of human blood platelets. The aim of this review is to discuss the proteolytic regulation of key platelet-specific receptors, glycoprotein(GP)Ib and GPVI, involved in the function of platelets in hemostasis and thrombosis, and nonimmune or immune thrombocytopenia. The scope of the review encompasses the basic science of platelet receptor shedding, practical aspects related to laboratory analysis of platelet receptor expression/shedding, and clinical implications of using the proteolytic fragments as platelet-specific biomarkers in vivo in terms of platelet function and clearance. These topics can be relevant to platelet transfusion regarding both changes in platelet receptor expression occurring ex vivo during platelet storage and/or clinical use of platelets for transfusion. In this regard, quantitative analysis of platelet receptor profiles on blood samples from individuals could ultimately enable stratification of bleeding risk, discrimination between causes of thrombocytopenia due to impaired production vs enhanced clearance, and monitoring of response to treatment prior to change in platelet count.

Abstract
Platelets in a thrombus interact with (anti)coagulation factors and support blood coagulation. In the concept of cell-based control of coagulation, three different roles of platelets can be distinguished: control of thrombin generation, support of fibrin formation, and regulation of fibrin clot retraction. Here, we postulate that different populations of platelets with distinct surface properties are involved in these coagulant functions. Platelets with elevated Ca(2+) and exposed phosphatidylserine control thrombin and fibrin generation, while platelets with activated α(IIb) β(3) regulate clot retraction. We review how coagulation factor binding depends on the platelet activation state. Furthermore, we discuss the ligands, platelet receptors and downstream intracellular signaling pathways implicated in these coagulant functions. These insights lead to an adapted model of platelet-based coagulation.

Abstract
The most convincing evidence for the participation of platelets in arterial thrombosis in humans comes from studies of platelet activation in patients with acute coronary syndromes (ACS) and from trials of antiplatelet drugs. Both strongly support the concept that repeated episodes of platelet activation over the thrombogenic surface of a vulnerable plaque may contribute to the risk of death from coronary causes. However, the relation of in vivo platelet activation and adverse clinical events to results of platelet function tests remains largely unknown. A valuable marker of in vivo platelet activation should be specific, unaltered by pre-analytical artefacts and reproducibly measured by easily performed methods. This article describes current biomarkers of platelet activation in ACS, reviews their advantages and disadvantages, discusses their potential pitfalls, and demonstrates emerging data supporting the positive clinical implications of monitoring in vivo platelet activation in the setting of ACS.

Abstract
Previous studies have highlighted that bubble-induced platelet aggregation is a predictor index of decompression sickness (DCS) severity in animals and bubble formation after a single air dive in humans. The present study attempted to investigate plasmatic indexes of the coagulation system and platelet activation in our rat model of DCS. Male Sprague-Dawley rats were assigned to one experimental group with a hyperbaric exposure and one control group maintained at atmospheric pressure. Rats were compressed to 1,000 kPa (90 m saltwater) for 45 min while breathing air. The onset of death time and DCS symptoms were recorded during a 30-min observed period after rats had surfaced. Plasmatic indexes were platelet factor 4 (PF4) for platelet activation, soluble glycoprotein V (sGPV) for thrombin generation, and thrombin-antithrombin complexes for the coagulation system. Blood samples for a platelet count and markers were taken 3 wk before the experimental protocol and within the 30 min after rats had surfaced. We confirmed a correlation between the percent fall in platelet count and DCS severity. Plasmatic levels of sGPV and PF4 were significantly increased after the hyperbaric exposure, with no change in the control group. The present study confirms platelet consumption as a potential index for evaluating decompression stress and DCS severity. The results point to the participation of thrombin generation in the coagulation cascade and platelet activation in bubble-induced platelet aggregation. In our animal model of DCS, the results cannot prejudge the mechanisms of platelet activation between bubble-induced vessel wall injury and bubble-blood component interactions.

Abstract
Identification of common sub-sequences for a group of functionally related DNA sequences can shed light on the role of such elements in cell-specific gene expression. In the megakaryocytic lineage, no one single unique transcription factor was described as linage specific, raising the possibility that a cluster of gene promoter sequences presents a unique signature. Here, the megakaryocytic gene promoter group, which consists of both human and mouse 5′ non-coding regions, served as a case study. A methodology for group-combinatorial search has been implemented as a customized software platform. It extracts the longest common sequences for a group of related DNA sequences and allows for single gaps of varying length, as well as double- and multiple-gap sequences. The results point to common DNA sequences in a group of genes that is selectively expressed in megakaryocytes, and which does not appear in a large group of control, random and specific sequences. This suggests a role for a combination of these sequences in cell-specific gene expression in the megakaryocytic lineage. The data also point to an intrinsic cross-species difference in the organization of 5′ non-coding sequences within the mammalian genomes. This methodology may be used for the identification of regulatory sequences in other lineages.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Collagen and thrombin are the strongest physiological platelet agonists, acting through different receptors, among which glycoprotein VI (GPVI) and protease-activated receptors, respectively, are the essential ones. In mice, targeting of GPVI with the monoclonal antibody JAQ1 induces depletion of the receptor from circulating platelets, resulting in abolished collagen responses and long-lasting antithrombotic protection. METHODS AND RESULTS Mice were treated with JAQ1, and the early effects of this treatment were analyzed. In addition to the known abolition of the collagen reactivity, this treatment also affected platelet response to thrombin but not other agonists. In platelets from JAQ1-treated mice, thrombin-induced activation of integrin alphaIIbbeta3, the surface expression of P-selectin, and the procoagulant activity were decreased on days 1 and 2, then progressively recovered and returned to normal on day 5. In parallel, the mice were transiently protected from lethal tissue factor-induced pulmonary thromboembolism (100% survivors versus 40% in control group), which appeared to be based on a decreased generation and activity of intravascular thrombin. CONCLUSIONS Anti-GPVI treatment induces 2-phase antithrombotic protection in mice consisting of a partial and transient inhibition of thrombin responses in platelets and a prolonged and complete loss of the collagen response.

Abstract
Platelet hyperactivity is important in the pathobiology of acute coronary syndromes. Glycoprotein V (GPV) is an integral membrane protein of platelets in the function of the GPIb-V-IX receptor for vWf/shear-dependent platelet adhesion in arteries. Soluble GPV is a novel marker of platelet activation. The aim of this study is to assess circulating soluble GPV levels in unstable angina pectoris (UA). Twenty-one patients (15 men, six women, aged 52+/-7 years) with UA pectoris were studied. The inclusion criteria were angina at rest lasting >20 min during the preceding 6 h, with transient ST segment depression and/or T wave inversion and no evidence of myocardial infarction detected with the use of cardiac troponin-T. Coronary artery stenosis was angiographically confirmed in all patients. Twenty age- and sex-matched healthy adults (14 men, six women, aged 48+/-7 years) served as controls. There were no significant differences among the studied groups with respect to age, sex, obesity, smoking, total cholesterol, LDL-cholesterol, HDL-cholesterol, triglyceride and platelet counts. Plasma-soluble GPV concentrations were higher in the UA patient group (126+/-46 ng/ml) than those in the healthy controls (82+/-15 ng/ml) (P=0.001). There was a significant correlation only between plasma-soluble GPV levels and smoking (r=0.526, P=0.0001). Smoker UA patients had higher levels of soluble GPV than the non-smoker patients (139+/-40 vs. 113+/-50 ng/ml, respectively, P=0.02). However, soluble GPV levels were similar in smoker and non-smoker healthy controls (P=0.2). It is concluded that soluble GPV concentrations are significantly increased during the acute clinical course of unstable angina pectoris, indicating that soluble GPV may be useful marker of platelet activation in those patients. The level of the molecule is significantly affected from smoking in those patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Despite ongoing improvements in storage conditions for platelet concentrates (PCs) for clinical use, leukoreduced platelets (PLTs) undergo subtle changes that are partly due to PLT activation. As PLTs are activated, the expression of P-selectin (CD62P) increases, and soluble glycoprotein V (sGPV) is released. GPV, part of the GPIbIXV complex, has been suggested as a marker of PLT activation. STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS An array of assays, used for quality control of PCs, was performed and the results were compared. The tests included PLT count, swirling, mean PLT volume, extent of shape change (ESC), hypotonic shock response (HSR), CD62P, lysosomal membrane protein (CD63), sGPV, and the metabolic tests (pH, pO(2), pCO(2), lactate, glucose). The performance of the assays was evaluated during the storage period by comparing buffy coat-derived PCs (24 PCs of 4 units) stored on flatbed agitator or stressed twice by overnight transportation. RESULTS The repeatability of all tests was good. ESC and HSR correlated with each other (r = 0.559). Importantly, there were also associations between sGPV and ESC (r = -0.564) and HSR (r = -0.389). The correlations of sGPV with lactate and glucose concentrations and with expression of CD62P and CD63 were also good. No significant changes were induced by two overnight transportations. CONCLUSION sGPV might be applicable for statistical process control of the quality of PCs, in addition to metabolic tests. It may also be helpful in analyzing potential improvements in blood component processing. Repeat transportation of PCs may cause minimal changes on PLT in vitro properties, if any.

Abstract
Direct interaction between platelet receptor glycoprotein Ibalpha (GpIbalpha) and thrombin is required for platelet aggregation and activation at sites of vascular injury. Abnormal GpIbalpha-thrombin binding is associated with many pathological conditions,including occlusive arterial thrombosis and bleeding disorders. The crystal structure of the GpIbalpha-thrombin complex at 2.6 angstrom resolution reveals simultaneous interactions of GpIbalpha with exosite I of one thrombin molecule,and with exosite II of a second thrombin molecule. In the crystal lattice,the periodic arrangement of GpIbalpha-thrombin complexes mirrors a scaffold that could serve as a driving force for tight platelet adhesion. The details of these interactions reconcile GpIbalpha-thrombin binding modes that are presently controversial,highlighting two distinct interfaces that are potential targets for development of novel antithrombotic drugs.

Abstract
Despite the clear importance of the platelet in various conditions and diseases, there are few opportunities to assess the physiological and pathological functions of this cell. Those without access to a flow cytometer or platelet aggregometer rely on secreted or release products of the platelet. Principle among these molecules are alpha granule components beta thromboglobulin and platelet factor four, and membrane constituents such as P selectin, gpV and glycocalicin. However, notwithstanding the ease of measurement of these markers (i.e., by ELISA) each one has its own particular disadvantage, mostly of methodology and specificity. Nevertheless, if our goal is to improve our ability to recognize and treat subjects with thrombotic disorders, then additional studies on these molecules may prove to be a sound investment.

Abstract
The glycoprotein (GP) Ib-V-IX complex plays a critical role in initiating platelet adhesion to von Willebrand factor (vWF) at the site of vascular injury. The complex also forms a high-affinity binding site for thrombin. Using an intravital microscopy mouse model, it was previously established that vWF plays a critical role in mediating platelet adhesion and thrombus formation following mesenteric arteriolar injury induced by ferric chloride. Further characterization of this model showed that these thrombotic events were also thrombin dependent. Using this vWF- and thrombin-dependent model, this study shows that GP V gene deficiency significantly accelerates both platelet adhesion and thrombus formation in mice following arteriolar injury. The time required for vessel occlusion in GP V-deficient (GP V(-/-)) mice was significantly shorter than that in wild-type mice. Interestingly, large emboli were also produced in GP V(-/-) mice, but not in wild-type mice, causing frequent downstream occlusion. However, when the 2 genotypes were compared in the in vitro perfusion chamber where thrombin was inhibited by heparin, no significant differences were found in either initial single-platelet adhesion or thrombus volume. These results demonstrate that GP V(-/-) mice have accelerated thrombus growth in response to vascular injury and suggest that this is caused by enhanced thrombin-induced platelet activation rather than enhanced binding of GPIb-V-IX to vWF. Absence of GP V also compromises thrombus stability.

Abstract
The activation of human platelets by alpha-thrombin is mediated at least in part by cleavage of protease-activated G-protein-coupled receptors, PAR-1 and PAR-4. Platelet glycoprotein Ibalpha also has a high affinity binding site for alpha-thrombin, and this interaction contributes to platelet activation through a still unknown mechanism. In the present study the hypothesis that GpIbalpha may contribute to platelet activation by modulating the hydrolysis of PAR-1 on the platelet membrane was investigated. Gel-filtered platelets from normal individuals were stimulated by alpha-thrombin, and the kinetics of PAR-1 hydrolysis by enzyme was followed with flow cytometry using an anti-PAR-1 monoclonal antibody (SPAN 12) that recognizes only intact PAR-1 molecules. This strategy allowed measurement of the apparent k(cat)/K(m) value for thrombin hydrolysis of PAR-1 on intact platelets, which was equal to 1.5 +/- 0.1 x 10(7) m(-1) sec(-1). The hydrolysis rate of PAR-1 by thrombin was measured under conditions in which thrombin binding to GpIb was inhibited by different strategies, with the following results. 1) Elimination of GpIbalpha on platelet membranes by mocarhagin treatment reduced the k(cat)/K(m) value by about 6-fold. 2) A monoclonal anti-GpIb antibody reduced the apparent k(cat)/K(m) value by about 5-fold. 3) An oligonucleotide DNA aptamer, HD22, which binds to the thrombin heparin-binding site (HBS) and inhibits thrombin interaction with GpIbalpha, reduced the apparent k(cat)/K(m) value by about 5-fold. 4) Displacement of alpha-thrombin from the binding site on GpIb using PPACK-thrombin reduced the apparent k(cat)/K(m) value by about 5-fold, and 5) mutation at the HBS of thrombin (R98A) caused a 5-fold reduction of the apparent k(cat)/K(m) value of PAR-1 hydrolysis. Altogether these results show that thrombin interaction with GpIb enhances the specificity of thrombin cleavage of PAR-1 on intact platelets, suggesting that GpIb may function as a "cofactor" for PAR-1 activation by thrombin.

Abstract
The mouse- and rat-platelet-specific hamster monoclonal antibody (MAb) 1C2, previously found to react with a thrombin-sensitive 74-kD glycoprotein, was now shown to recognize platelet glycoprotein V (GPV, CD42d). 1C2 reacted with NIH-3T3 cells in which recombinant mouse or rat GPV was expressed. Both 1C2 and 4A5, another mouse-platelet-specific rat MAb, immunoprecipitated GVP, although they recognized different epitopes. Side-by-side comparison confirmed that 1C2 as well as RPM.9, a MAb against rat GPV, recognized the same rat platelet molecule. In a mouse bone marrow culture, 1C2+ megakaryocytes emerged from CD41 (GPIIb)+1C2- megakaryocytes. Because 1C2+ megakaryocytes exhibited higher DNA ploidy distribution than CD41+ cells, GPV likely appears in the late stage of megakaryocyte maturation. This study established 1C2 as a MAb against mouse and rat GPV, namely CD42d, and as useful tool to study rodent megakaryopoiesis.
