Phosphorylation of spleen tyrosine kinase at Y346 negatively regulates ITAM-mediated signaling and function in platelets. J Biol Chem 2023; 299:104865.

Abstract
Spleen tyrosine kinase (Syk) is expressed in a variety of hemopoietic cells. Upon phosphorylation of the platelet immunoreceptor-based activation motif of the glycoprotein VI (GPVI)/Fc receptor gamma chain collagen receptor, both the tyrosine phosphorylation and activity of Syk are increased leading to downstream signaling events. Although it has been established that the activity of Syk is regulated by tyrosine phosphorylation, the specific roles of individual phosphorylation sites remain to be elucidated. We observed that Syk Y346 in mouse platelets was still phosphorylated when GPVI-induced Syk activity was inhibited. We then generated Syk Y346F mice and analyzed the effect this mutation exerts on platelet responses. Syk Y346F mice bred normally, and their blood cell count was unaltered. We did observe potentiation of GPVI-induced platelet aggregation and ATP secretion as well as increased phosphorylation of other tyrosines on Syk in the Syk Y346F mouse platelets when compared to WT littermates. This phenotype was specific for GPVI-dependent activation, since it was not seen when AYPGKF, a PAR4 agonist, or 2-MeSADP, a purinergic receptor agonist, was used to activate platelets. Despite a clear effect of Syk Y346F on GPVI-mediated signaling and cellular responses, there was no effect of this mutation on hemostasis as measured by tail-bleeding times, although the time to thrombus formation determined using the ferric chloride injury model was reduced. Thus, our results indicate a significant effect of Syk Y346F on platelet activation and responses in vitro and reveal its complex nature manifesting itself by the diversified translation of platelet activation into physiological responses.

J Biol Chem 2022; 298:102189. [PMID: 35753354 PMCID: PMC9287148 DOI: 10.1016/j.jbc.2022.102189] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/18/2022] [Revised: 06/09/2022] [Accepted: 06/10/2022] [Indexed: 11/29/2022] Open
Abstract
Immune cells express receptors bearing an immune tyrosine activation motif (ITAM) containing two YXXL motifs or hemITAMs containing only one YXXL motif. Phosphorylation of the ITAM/hemITAM is mediated by Src family kinases allowing for the binding and activation of spleen tyrosine kinase (Syk). It is believed that Syk must be phosphorylated on tyrosine residues for activation, and Tyr342, а conserved tyrosine in the interdomain B region, has been shown to be critical for regulating Syk in FcεR1-activated mast cells. Syk is a key mediator of signaling pathways downstream of several platelet pathways including the ITAM bearing glycoprotein VI (GPVI)/Fc receptor gamma chain collagen receptor and the hemITAM containing C-type lectin-like receptor-2 (CLEC-2). Since platelet activation is a crucial step in both hemostasis and thrombosis, we evaluated the importance of Syk Y342 in these processes by producing an Syk Y342F knock-in mouse. When using a CLEC-2 antibody as an agonist, reduced aggregation and secretion were observed in Syk Y342F mouse platelets when compared with control mouse platelets. Platelet reactivity was also reduced in response to the GPVI agonist collagen-related peptide. Signaling initiated by either GPVI or CLEC-2 was also greatly inhibited, including Syk Y519/520 phosphorylation. Hemostasis, as measured by tail bleeding time, was not altered in Syk Y342F mice, but thrombus formation in response to FeCl3 injury was prolonged in Syk Y342F mice. These data demonstrate that phosphorylation of Y342 on Syk following stimulation of either GPVI or CLEC-2 receptors is important for the ability of Syk to transduce a signal.

Abstract
Protein-tyrosine phosphatase TULA-2 has been shown to regulate receptor signaling in several cell types, including platelets. Platelets are critical for maintaining vascular integrity; this function is mediated by platelet aggregation in response to recognition of the exposed basement membrane collagen by the GPVI receptor, which is non-covalently associated with the signal-transducing FcRγ polypeptide chain. Our previous studies suggested that TULA-2 plays an important role in negatively regulating signaling through GPVI-FcRγ and indicated that the tyrosine-protein kinase Syk is a key target of the regulatory action of TULA-2 in platelets. However, the molecular basis of the down-regulatory effect of TULA-2 on Syk activation via FcRγ remained unclear. In this study, we demonstrate that suppression of Syk activation by TULA-2 is mediated, to a substantial degree, by dephosphorylation of Tyr(P)346, a regulatory site of Syk, which becomes phosphorylated soon after receptor ligation and plays a critical role in initiating the process that yields fully activated Syk. TULA-2 is capable of dephosphorylating Tyr(P)346 with high efficiency, thus controlling the overall activation of Syk, but is less efficient in dephosphorylating other regulatory sites of this kinase. Therefore, dephosphorylation of Tyr(P)346 may be considered an important "checkpoint" in the regulation of Syk activation process. Putative biological functions of TULA-2-mediated dephosphorylation of Tyr(P)346 may include deactivation of receptor-activated Syk or suppression of Syk activation by suboptimal stimulation.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Proteinase 3 (PR3) is released from neutrophil azurophilic granules and exerts complex effects on the inflammatory process. PR3 catalyzes the degradation of a number of macromolecules, but the consequences on blood cells are less well defined. In the present study, the effect of PR3 on human platelets was thoroughly investigated. METHODS The experiments were performed on washed platelets freshly isolated from blood donated by healthy human volunteers. Platelets shape change and aggregation was measured on a Chrono-Log aggregometer. The phosphorylated form of MYPT1 was visualized by immunostaining. Platelet activation was further evaluated by flow cytometry. RESULTS PR3 induced platelet shape change but not aggregation. Flow cytometry analysis showed that PR3 induced no P-selectin expression or binding of fibrinogen to the platelets, and it did not change the activation in response to PAR1- or PAR4-activating peptides or to thrombin. Furthermore, Fura-2 measurement and immuno-blotting analysis, respectively, revealed that PR3 stimulated small intracellular Ca(2+) mobilization and Thr696-specific phosphorylation of the myosin phosphatase target subunit 1 (MYPT1). Separate treatment of platelets with the Rho/Rho kinase inhibitor Y-27632 and the intracellular Ca(2+) chelator BAPTA/AM reduced the shape change induced by PR3 whereas concurrent treatment completely inhibited it. CONCLUSION The data shows that the neutrophil protease PR3 is a direct modulator of human platelets and causes shape change through activation of the Rho/Rho kinase and Ca(2+) signaling pathways. This finding highlights an additional mechanism in the complex interplay between neutrophils and platelets.

Abstract
Platelets contain high levels of Src family kinases (SFKs), but their functional role downstream of G protein pathways has not been completely understood. We found that platelet shape change induced by selective G(12/13) stimulation was potentiated by SFK inhibitors, which was abolished by intracellular calcium chelation. Platelet aggregation, secretion, and intracellular Ca(2+) mobilization mediated by low concentrations of SFLLRN or YFLLRNP were potentiated by SFK inhibitors. However, 2-methylthio-ADP-induced intracellular Ca(2+) mobilization and platelet aggregation were not affected by PP2, suggesting the contribution of SFKs downstream of G(12/13), but not G(q)/G(i), as a negative regulator to platelet activation. Moreover, PP2 potentiated YFLLRNP- and AYPGKF-induced PKC activation, indicating that SFKs downstream of G(12/13) regulate platelet responses through the negative regulation of PKC activation as well as calcium response. SFK inhibitors failed to potentiate platelet responses in the presence of G(q)-selective inhibitor YM254890 or in G(q)-deficient platelets, indicating that SFKs negatively regulate platelet responses through modulation of G(q) pathways. Importantly, AYPGKF-induced platelet aggregation and PKC activation were potentiated in Fyn-deficient but not in Lyn-deficient mice compared with wild-type littermates. We conclude that SFKs, especially Fyn, activated downstream of G(12/13) negatively regulate platelet responses by inhibiting intracellular calcium mobilization and PKC activation through G(q) pathways.

Abstract
Fyn, a Src-family kinase, is highly expressed in brain tissue and blood cells. In the mouse brain, Fyn participates in brain development, synaptic transmission through the phosphorylation of N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA) receptor subunits, and the regulation of emotional behavior. Recently, we found that Fyn is required for the signal transduction in striatal neurons that is initiated by haloperidol, an antipsychotic drug. To determine whether Fyn abnormalities are present in patients with schizophrenia, we analyzed Fyn expression in platelet samples from 110 patients with schizophrenia, 75 of the patients' first-degree relatives, and 130 control subjects. A Western blot analysis revealed significantly lower levels of Fyn protein among the patients with schizophrenia and their relatives, compared with the level in the control group. At the mRNA level, the splicing patterns of fyn were altered in the patients and their relatives; specifically, the ratio of fynDelta7, in which exon 7 is absent, was elevated. An expression study in HEK293T cells revealed that FynDelta7 had a dominant-negative effect on the phosphorylation of Fyn's substrate. These results suggest novel deficits in Fyn function, manifested as the downregulation of Fyn protein or the altered transcription of the fyn gene, in patients with schizophrenia.

Abstract
We have previously shown that ADP-induced thromboxane generation in platelets requires signalling events from the G(q)-coupled P2Y1 receptor (platelet ADP receptor coupled to stimulation of phospholipase C) and the G(i)-coupled P2Y12 receptor (platelet ADP receptor coupled to inhibition of adenylate cyclase) in addition to outside-in signalling. While it is also known that extracellular calcium negatively regulates ADP-induced thromboxane A2 generation, the underlying mechanism remains unclear. In the present study we sought to elucidate the signalling mechanisms and regulation by extracellular calcium of ADP-induced thromboxane A2 generation in platelets. ERK (extracllular-signal-regulated kinase) 2 activation occurred when outside-in signalling was blocked, indicating that it is a downstream event from the P2Y receptors. However, blockade of either P2Y1 or the P2Y12 receptors with corresponding antagonists completely abolished ERK phosphorylation, indicating that both P2Y receptors are required for ADP-induced ERK activation. Inhibitors of Src family kinases or the ERK upstream kinase MEK [MAPK (mitogen-activated protein kinase)/ERK kinase] abrogated ADP-induced ERK phosphorylation and thromboxane A2 generation. Finally ADP- or G(i)+G(z)-induced ERK phosphorylation was blocked in the presence of extracellular calcium. The present studies show that ERK2 is activated downstream of P2Y receptors through a complex mechanism involving Src kinases and this plays an important role in ADP-induced thromboxane A2 generation. We also conclude that extracellular calcium blocks ADP-induced thromboxane A2 generation through the inhibition of ERK activation.

Abstract
Oxidation of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) generates pro-inflammatory and pro-thrombotic mediators that play a crucial role in cardiovascular and inflammatory diseases. Mildly oxidized LDL (mox-LDL) and minimally modified LDL (mm-LDL) which escape the uptake of macrophage scavenger receptors accumulate in the atherosclerotic intima. Oxidatively modified LDL is also present within the electronegative LDL fraction in blood, which is elevated in patients at high risk for cardiovascular diseases. Mox-LDL and mm-LDL, but not native LDL are able to induce platelet shape change and aggregation. LDL oxidation generates lipids with platelet stimulatory properties such as lysophosphatidylcholine, certain oxidized phosphatidylcholine molecules, F(2)-isoprostanes and lysophosphatidic acid (LPA). Mox-LDL and mm-LDL are like a Trojan horse carrying these biologically active lipids and attacking cells through activation of physiological receptors and signaling mechanisms. LPA has been identified as the lipid responsible for platelet stimulation by mox-LDL, mm-LDL and also mox-HDL. These lipoproteins activate platelets by stimulating G-protein coupled LPA receptors and a Rho/Rho kinase signaling pathway leading to platelet shape change and subsequent aggregation. LPA-mediated platelet activation might contribute to arterial thrombus formation after rupture of atherosclerotic plaques and to the increased blood thrombogenicity of patients with cardiovascular diseases.

Abstract
Protease-activated receptors (PARs) activate Gq and G(12/13) pathways, as well as Akt (protein kinase B [PKB/Akt]) in platelets. However, the relative contribution of different G-protein pathways to Akt phosphorylation has not been elucidated. We investigated the contribution of Gq and G(12/13) to Gi/Gz-mediated Akt phosphorylation downstream of PAR activation. Selective G(12/13) activation failed to cause Akt phosphorylation in human and Galpha q-deficient mouse platelets. However, supplementing Gi/Gz signaling to G(12/13) caused significant increase in Akt phosphorylation, confirming that G(12/13) potentiates Akt phosphorylation. Inhibition of PAR-mediated Akt phosphorylation in the presence of the Gq-selective inhibitor YM-254890 was restored to the normal extent achieved by PAR agonists if supplemented with Gi signaling, indicating that Gq does not have any direct effect on Akt phosphorylation. Selective G(12/13) activation resulted in Src kinase activation, and Akt phosphorylation induced by costimulation of G(12/13) and Gi/Gz was inhibited by a Src kinase inhibitor but not by a Rho kinase inhibitor. These data demonstrate that G(12/13), but not Gq, is essential for thrombin-induced Akt phosphorylation in platelets, whereas Gq indirectly contributes to Akt phosphorylation through Gi stimulation by secreted ADP. G(12/13) activation might mediate its potentiating effect through Src activation, and Src kinases play an important role in thrombin-mediated Akt phosphorylation.

Abstract
Thrombin activates protease-activated receptor-1 (PAR-1) by cleavage of the amino terminus to unmask a tethered ligand. Although peptide analogs can activate PAR-1, we show that the functional responses mediated via PAR-1 differ between the agonists. Thrombin caused endothelial monolayer permeability and mobilized intracellular calcium with EC(50) values of 0.1 and 1.7 nm, respectively. The opposite order of activation was observed for agonist peptide (SFLLRN-CONH(2) or TFLLRNKPDK) activation. The addition of inactivated thrombin did not affect agonist peptide signaling, suggesting that the differences in activation mechanisms are intramolecular in origin. Although activation of PAR-1 or PAR-2 by agonist peptides induced calcium mobilization, only PAR-1 activation affected barrier function. Induced barrier permeability is likely to be Galpha(12/13)-mediated as chelation of Galpha(q)-mediated intracellular calcium with BAPTA-AM, pertussis toxin inhibition of Galpha(i/o), or GM6001 inhibition of matrix metalloproteinase had no effect, whereas Y-27632 inhibition of the Galpha(12/13)-mediated Rho kinase abrogated the response. Similarly, calcium mobilization is Galpha(q)-mediated and independent of Galpha(i/o) and Galpha(12/13) because pertussis toxin Y-27632 and had no effect, whereas U-73122 inhibition of phospholipase C-beta blocked the response. It is therefore likely that changes in permeability reflect Galpha(12/13) activation, and changes in calcium reflect Galpha(q) activation, implying that the pharmacological differences between agonists are likely caused by the ability of the receptor to activate Galpha(12/13) or Galpha(q). This functional selectivity was characterized quantitatively by a mathematical model describing each step leading to Rho activation and/or calcium mobilization. This model provides an estimate that peptide activation alters receptor/G protein binding to favor Galpha(q) activation over Galpha(12/13) by approximately 800-fold.

Abstract
Thrombin stimulation of platelets triggers Tyr phosphorylation of several signaling proteins, most of which remain unidentified. In this study, we demonstrate for the first time that hematopoietic lineage cell-specific protein 1 (HS1) undergoes a transient Tyr phosphorylation in human platelets stimulated with thrombin. The protein is synergistically phosphorylated by Syk and Lyn tyrosine kinases according to a sequential phosphorylation mechanism. By means of specific inhibitors (PP2, SU6656, and piceatannol) and phosphopeptide-specific antibodies, as well as by coimmunoprecipitation and binding competition experiments, we show that Syk acts as the primary kinase that phosphorylates HS1 at Tyr397 and that Syk phosphorylation is required for HS1 interaction with the Lyn SH2 domain. Upon docking to Syk-phosphorylated HS1, Lyn catalyzes the secondary phosphorylation of the protein at Tyr222. Once the secondary Tyr phosphorylation of HS1 is accomplished the protein dissociates from Lyn and undergoes a dephosphorylation process. HS1 Tyr phosphorylation does not occur when thrombin-induced actin assembly is inhibited by cytochalasin D even under conditions in which Syk and Lyn are still active. Immunofluorescence microscopic analysis shows that the agonist promotes HS1 migration to the plasma membrane and that the inhibition of Lyn-mediated secondary phosphorylation of HS1 abrogates the subcellular translocation of the protein. All together these results indicate that HS1 Tyr phosphorylation catalyzed by Syk and Lyn plays a crucial role in the translocation of the protein to the membrane and is involved in the cytoskeleton rearrangement triggered by thrombin in human platelets.

Abstract
AbstractThe impact of estrogens on the cardiovascular system and their ability to regulate platelet function are matters of controversy. The recent finding that estrogen receptors are expressed in human platelets renders these cells an excellent model for studying the nongenomic effects of these hormones. In this work, we investigated 17β-estradiol–dependent signaling in platelets from adult healthy men. 17β-estradiol caused the rapid phosphorylation of the tyrosine kinases Src and Pyk2 and the formation of a signaling complex, which included Src, Pyk2, and the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase. Both these events were dependent on estrogen receptor β engagement. We found that estrogen receptor β was membrane-associated in platelets. On treatment with 17β-estradiol, Src and Pyk2 activation occurred in the membrane fraction but not in the cytosol. In contrast, no significant activation of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase was detected in estrogen-treated platelets. 17β-estradiol did not induce any platelet response directly, but it strongly potentiated the activation of integrin αIIbβ3 and the platelet aggregation induced by subthreshold concentrations of thrombin. These effects were dependent on estrogen receptor β recruitment and were associated with a strong synergistic effect with thrombin on Src activation. Taken together, these results indicate that 17β-estradiol can modulate platelet function by exercising a proaggregating role.

Abstract
G(12/13) or G(q) signaling pathways activate platelet GPIIb/IIIa when combined with G(i) signaling. We tested whether combined G(i) and G(z) pathways also cause GPIIb/IIIa activation and compared the signaling requirements of these events. Platelet aggregation occurred by combined stimulation of G(i) and G(z) pathways in human platelets and in P2Y1-deficient and G alpha(q)-deficient mouse platelets, confirming that the combination of G(i) and G(z) signaling causes platelet aggregation. When G(i) stimulation was combined with G(z) stimulation, there was a small mobilization of intracellular calcium. Chelation of intracellular calcium decreased the extent of this platelet aggregation, whereas it abolished the G(q) plus G(i)-mediated platelet aggregation. Costimulation of G(i) plus G(z) pathways also caused thromboxane generation that was dependent on outside-in signaling and was inhibited by PP2, a Src family tyrosine kinase inhibitor. Src family tyrosine kinase inhibitors also inhibited platelet aggregation and decreased the PAC-1 binding caused by costimulation of G(i) and G(z) signaling pathways in aspirin-treated platelets. However, Src family kinase inhibitors did not affect G(q) plus G(i)-mediated platelet aggregation. We conclude that the combination of G(i) plus G(z) pathways have different requirements than G(q) plus G(i) pathways for calcium and Src family kinases in GPIIb/IIIa activation and thromboxane production.

Abstract
Platelet adhesion to von Willebrand factor (VWF) activates alpha IIb beta 3, a prerequisite for thrombus formation. However, it is unclear whether the primary VWF receptor, glycoprotein (GP) Ib-IX-V, mediates alpha IIb beta 3 activation directly or through other signaling proteins physically associated with it (eg, FcR gamma-chain), possibly with the contribution of other agonist receptors and of VWF signaling through alpha IIb beta 3. To resolve this question, human and GP Ibalpha transgenic mouse platelets were plated on dimeric VWF A1 domain (dA1VWF), which engages only GP Ib-IX-V, in the presence of inhibitors of other agonist receptors. Platelet adhesion to dA1VWF induced Src kinase-dependent tyrosine phosphorylation of the FcR gamma-chain and the adapter molecule, ADAP, and triggered intracellular Ca(2+) oscillations and alpha IIb beta 3 activation. Inhibition of Ca(2+) oscillations with BAPTA-AM prevented alpha IIb beta 3 activation but not tyrosine phosphorylation. Pharmacologic inhibition of protein kinase C (PKC) or phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI 3-kinase) prevented alpha IIb beta 3 activation but not Ca(2+) oscillations. Inhibition of Src with 2 distinct compounds blocked all responses downstream of GP Ib-IX-V under static or flow conditions. However, dA1VWF-induced responses were reduced only slightly in GP Ibalpha transgenic platelets lacking FcR gamma-chain. These data establish that GP Ib-IX-V itself can signal to activate alpha IIb beta 3, through sequential actions of Src kinases, Ca(2+) oscillations, and PI 3-kinase/PKC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) is a platelet-activating component of mildly oxidized LDL (mox-LDL) and lipids isolated from human atherosclerotic plaques. Specific antagonists of platelet LPA receptors could be useful inhibitors of thrombus formation in patients with cardiovascular disease. METHODS AND RESULTS Short-chain analogs of phosphatidic acid (PA) were examined for their effect on two initial platelet responses, platelet shape change and Ca2+ mobilization. Dioctylglycerol pyrophosphate [DGPP(8:0)] and dioctylphosphatidic acid [PA(8:0)], recently described selective antagonists of the LPA1 and LPA3 receptors, inhibited platelet activation evoked by LPA but not by other platelet stimuli. DGPP(8:0) was more potent than PA(8:0). DGPP(8:0) also inhibited platelet shape change induced by mox-LDL and lipid extracts from human atherosclerotic plaques. Notably, we demonstrate for the first time that the lipid-rich core isolated from soft plaques was able to directly induce shape change. This effect was completely abrogated by prior incubation of platelets with DGPP(8:0). Moreover, coapplication of the lipid-rich core or LPA together with subthreshold concentrations of ADP or epinephrine synergistically induced platelet aggregation; this effect was inhibited by DGPP(8:0). Analysis by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry revealed the presence of LPA alkyl- and acyl-molecular species with high platelet-activating potency (16:0-alkyl-LPA, 20:4-acyl-LPA). CONCLUSIONS LPA molecules present in the core region of atherosclerotic plaques trigger rapid platelet activation through the stimulation of LPA1 and LPA3 receptors. Antagonists of platelet LPA receptors might provide a new strategy to prevent thrombus formation in patients with cardiovascular diseases.

Abstract
Activation of GPIIb/IIIa is known to require agonist-induced inside-out signaling through G(q), G(i), and G(z). Although activated by several platelet agonists, including thrombin and thromboxane A(2), the contribution of the G(12/13) signaling pathway to GPIIb/IIIa activation has not been investigated. In this study, we used selective stimulation of G protein pathways to investigate the contribution of G(12/13) activation to platelet fibrinogen receptor activation. YFLLRNP is a PAR-1-specific partial agonist that, at low concentrations (60 microm), selectively activates the G(12/13) signaling cascade resulting in platelet shape change without stimulating the G(q) or G(i) signaling pathways. YFLLRNP-mediated shape change was completely inhibited by the p160(ROCK) inhibitor, Y-27632. At this low concentration, YFLLRNP-mediated G(12/13) signaling caused platelet aggregation and enhanced PAC-1 binding when combined with selective G(i) or G(z) signaling, via selective stimulation of the P2Y(12) receptor or alpha(2A)-adrenergic receptor, respectively. Similar data were obtained when using low dose (10 nm), a thromboxane A(2) mimetic, to activate G(12/13) in the presence of G(i) signaling. These results suggest that selective activation of G(12/13) causes platelet GPIIb/IIIa activation when combined with G(i) signaling. Unlike either G(12/13) or G(i) activation alone, co-activation of both G(12/13) and G(i) resulted in a small increase in intracellular calcium. Chelation of intracellular calcium with dimethyl BAPTA dramatically blocked G(12/13) and G(i)-mediated platelet aggregation. No significant effect on aggregation was seen when using selective inhibitors for p160(ROCK), PKC, or MEKK1. PI 3-kinase inhibition lead to near abolishment of platelet aggregation induced by co-stimulation of G(q) and G(i) pathways, but not by G(12/13) and G(i) pathways. These data demonstrate that co-stimulation of G(12/13) and G(i) pathways is sufficient to activate GPIIb/IIIa in human platelets in a mechanism that involves intracellular calcium, and that PI 3-kinase is an important signaling molecule downstream of G(q) but not downstream of G(12/13) pathway.

Abstract
Thrombin is an important agonist for platelet activation and plays a major role in hemostasis and thrombosis. Thrombin activates platelets mainly through protease-activated receptor 1 (PAR1), PAR4, and glycoprotein Ib. Because adenosine diphosphate and thromboxane A(2) have been shown to cause platelet aggregation by concomitant signaling through G(q) and G(i) pathways, we investigated whether coactivation of G(q) and G(i) signaling pathways is the general mechanism by which PAR1 and PAR4 agonists also activate platelet fibrinogen receptor (alphaIIbbeta3). A PAR1-activating peptide, SFLLRN, and PAR4-activating peptides GYPGKF and AYPGKF, caused inhibition of stimulated adenylyl cyclase in human platelets but not in the presence of either Ro 31-8220, a protein kinase C selective inhibitor that abolishes secretion, or AR-C66096, a P2Y12 receptor-selective antagonist; alpha-thrombin-induced inhibition of adenylyl cyclase was also blocked by Ro 31-8220 or AR-C66096. In platelets from a P2Y12 receptor-defective patient, alpha-thrombin, SFLLRN, and GYPGKF also failed to inhibit adenylyl cyclase. In platelets from mice lacking the P2Y12 receptor, neither alpha-thrombin nor AYPGKF caused inhibition of adenylyl cyclase. Furthermore, AR-C66096 caused a rightward shift of human platelet aggregation induced by the lower concentrations of alpha-thrombin and AYPGKF but had no effect at higher concentrations. Similar results were obtained with platelets from mice deficient in the P2Y12. We conclude that (1) thrombin- and thrombin receptor-activating peptide-induced inhibition of adenylyl cyclase in platelets depends exclusively on secreted adenosine diphosphate that stimulates G(i) signaling pathways and (2) thrombin and thrombin receptor-activating peptides cause platelet aggregation independently of G(i) signaling.

Abstract
In a physiological milieu platelets continue to be exposed to agonists long after clot formation. We studied the regulation of postaggregation events consequent on protease-activated receptor (PAR) 1 ligation with either thrombin or the thrombin receptor-activating peptide (TRAP). Stimulation with TRAP (20 microM) but not with thrombin (1 U/ml) for 15 min evoked platelet disaggregation by about 30% and downregulation of high-affinity fibrinogen binding sites on integrin alpha(IIb)beta(3) to nearly prestimulation levels. Concurrently, only TRAP disorganized the actin-based cytoskeleton, with decrease in the cytoskeletal content of focal contact-associated proteins like integrin alpha(IIb)beta(3), Src, and focal adhesion kinase (FAK). While protein tyrosine kinases were activated during the initial period of platelet aggregation with either agonist, stimulation of protein tyrosine phosphatases determined the successive phase of reduced phosphotyrosine content. SHP-1, an abundant protein tyrosine phosphatase in the platelets, was tyrosine phosphorylated on challenge of PAR-1 and coprecipitated with two unidentified tyrosine phosphorylated proteins of 140 and 60 kDa; in addition, SHP-1 tyrosine phosphorylation (which is associated with enhanced phosphatase activity) was sustained until 15 min. Activity of calpain was upregulated following incubation with thrombin and not with TRAP. Collectively, these data suggest that signaling pathways elicited by PAR-1 agonists thrombin and TRAP are markedly different, which could have important implications on late platelet responses.

Abstract
Adenosine diphosphate (ADP) is a platelet agonist that causes platelet shape change and aggregation as well as generation of thromboxane A(2), another platelet agonist, through its effects on P2Y1, P2Y12, and P2X1 receptors. It is now reported that both 2-propylthio-D-beta gamma-dichloromethylene adenosine 5'-triphosphate (AR-C67085), a P2Y12 receptor-selective antagonist, and adenosine-2'-phosphate-5'-phosphate (A2P5P), a P2Y1 receptor-selective antagonist, inhibited ADP-induced thromboxane A(2) generation in a concentration-dependent manner, indicating that coactivation of the P2Y12 and P2Y1 receptors is essential for this event. SC49992, a fibrinogen receptor antagonist, blocked ADP-induced platelet aggregation and thromboxane A(2) production in a concentration-dependent manner. Similarly, P2 receptor antagonists or SC49992 blocked ADP-induced arachidonic acid liberation. Whereas SC49992 blocked arachidonic acid-induced platelet aggregation, it failed to inhibit thromboxane A(2) generation induced by arachidonic acid. Thus, ADP-induced arachidonic acid liberation, but not subsequent conversion to thromboxane A(2), requires outside-in signaling through the fibrinogen receptor. The Fab fragment of ligand-induced binding site-6 (LIBS6) antibody, which induces a fibrinogen-binding site on the integrin alpha(IIb)beta(3), caused both platelet aggregation and thromboxane A(2) generation. Inhibitors of phosphoinositide 3-kinase, Syk, Src kinases, or protein tyrosine phosphatases inhibited platelet aggregation but not thromboxane A(2) generation, indicating that these signaling molecules have no significant role in phospholipase A(2) activation. In the presence of P2 receptor antagonists A2P5P or AR-C67085, LIBS6 failed to generate thromboxane A(2), suggesting that inside-out signaling through ADP receptors is necessary for this event. It was concluded that both outside-in signaling from the fibrinogen receptor and inside-out signaling from the P2Y1 and P2Y12 receptors are necessary for phospholipase A(2) activation, resulting in arachidonic acid liberation and thromboxane A(2) generation.

Abstract
Platelet shape change represents an early response to activating agents. Whereas the PAR-1-activating peptide SFLLRN induces a total platelet activation, YFLLRNP brings the process only to the shape change step in a process independent of the cytosolic Ca2+ concentration. In this paper, the YFLLRNP-induced shape change has been observed in human citrated platelet-rich plasma (PRP). Scanning electron microscopy of platelets activated by 300 microM YFLLRNP showed platelets that had changed shape and extended long pseudopods. The protein content of the material sedimenting at 13,000 x g from 1% Triton X-100 extracts increased during the shape change, indicating a reorganization of the cytoskeleton. This was supported by electrophoresis. The GP IIb-IIIa complex was not activated, however, and the platelets that had undergone shape change did not support clot retraction. As no increase in binding of FITC-labeled annexin V (FITC-annexin V) was observed, the extensive shape change was not associated with a disturbance of the membrane phospholipid asymmetry. Platelet aggregation was never observed with 300 microM YFLLRNP, but could be seen at much higher concentrations, neither was secretion from dense granules observed at 300 microM as no extracellular ATP could be observed. These studies confirm and extend the concept of the Ca2+-independent shape change as a distinct and sharply delineated process that, in itself, may be of little pathophysiological importance if such "partly activated" platelets occur in the circulation.
