Abstract
SummaryWe have used the mepacrine-labelling procedure to measure the dense body (serotonin storage organelle) content of the platelets of 2 hereditary disorders where abnormalities in dense body number were suspected. The platelets were incubated with mepacrine and examined by fluorescence microscopy. A mean number of 5.4 ± 0.8 (SD) dense bodies per platelet was calculated from the data obtained using platelets isolated from 40 normal human subjects. In contrast the platelets of 2 patients with the Bernard-Soulier syndrome contained an average of 14 and 17 labelled granules. This increase was associated with a much greater capacity of the platelets to accumulate 14C-5-HT. The opposite result was obtained using the platelets from 2 patients with the Hermansky-Pudlak syndrome which contained few granules labelled by mepacrine and took up less 14C-5-HT than normal human platelets. Centrifugation of the patients’ platelets on discontinuous sucrose gradients showed that the platelets of the 2 Bemard-Soulier patients were much denser than normal whereas a high proportion of low density platelets was observed in the Hermansky-Pudlak syndrome. These results further define the platelet abnormalities in the two syndromes and suggest that dense body number may be one of the factors governing platelet density.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although considered as an anti-inflammatory cytokine, interleukin-4 (IL-4) has been shown to be pro-atherogenic in mice models of atherosclerosis. OBJECTIVES In order to elucidate this paradox, we have investigated the effects of IL-4 on characteristic atherogenic parameters in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs): production of reactive oxygen species, expression of monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) and nitric oxide (NO) bioavailability. RESULTS Incubation of HUVECs with IL-4 resulted in an increased production of reactive oxygen species and extracellular O(2)(-)(*) measured using fluorogenic probes and Cytochrome c that was inhibited by superoxide dismutase or gp91ds-tat, a selective NADPH oxidase inhibitor. The latter also inhibited IL-4 induced over-expression of MCP-1 mRNA measured by classical and real time RT-PCR. Incubation of HUVECs with IL-4 reduced thrombin-induced NO release, detected by electrochemistry, an effect which was reversed by incubation with superoxide dismutase. Both production of reactive oxygen species and MCP-1 mRNA over-expression induced by IL-4 were fully inhibited by selective inhibitors of phosphatidyl inositol 3-kinase. CONCLUSION The data demonstrate that IL-4 up-regulates the expression of MCP-1 and decreases NO bioavailability through activation of NADPH oxidase in endothelial cells. These results are in favor of a pro-inflammatory and pro-atherogenic effect of IL-4 in vascular tissues.

Abstract
Thiosulfinates (TSs) are sulfur compounds generated through the processing of different Allium species with antiplatelet property. To further define this platelet inhibitory effect we studied diallyl-TS (Al2TS), dipropyl-TS (Pr2TS). and dimethyl-TS (Me2TS) on platelet responses. The three TSs inhibited dose-dependent platelet aggregation, with IC50 values of 15+/-2, 19+/-2, and 9+/-1 microM for Al2TS, Pr2TS and Me2TS, respectively. TSs had no effect on the expression of a platelet procoagulant surface, measured by flow cytometry as the binding of annexin V-FITC. They inhibited the microparticle shedding and clot retraction. Since the microparticle shedding is a calpain-activation dependent step, we assessed calpain activation by analysis of autoproteolysis in shorter active forms and by talin proteolysis in the presence of TSs. Calpain activation was inhibited by TSs independently of fibrinogen binding. Thus, TSs represent a new category of platelet inhibitors, acting on calpain-induced events.

Abstract
Although anucleated, blood platelets are highly organized cells rich in different types of organelles. Three specific granule populations store different types of constituents, some of which are at high concentrations. Platelets thus transport some specific compounds through the whole body. During circulation, platelets are reactive to various stimuli and release the materials stored in the specific granules. This 'release reaction' is an important step of primary haemostasis. Energy and messengers required for platelet reactivity are provided by mitochondria and the dense tubular system. Each granule population has specific properties concerning both the structure and the role played by the released constituents. Dense granules contain small non-protein molecules that are secreted to recruit other platelets. alpha-Granules contain large adhesive and healing proteins. Lysosomes contain hydrolases able to eliminate the circulating platelet aggregate. The extrusion of storage granules' content to the platelet's environment occurs according to regulated secretion events: movements of granules, apposition and fusion of granule and plasma membranes. Typical platelet disorders resulting from a storage granule abnormality are referred to as a storage pool defect and are characterized by a prolonged bleeding time.

Abstract
Heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT), a relatively common complication of heparin therapy, results of platelet activation, via the receptor for the Fc domain of IgG (FcgammaRIIa), by heparin-dependent-antibodies, commonly directed against the heparin-platelet factor 4 (H-PF4) antigenic complex. Our strategy was to use whole blood allowing the study of leukocyte-platelet interactions. Experiments were performed with blood from healthy donors incubated with HIT patients' plasma and different concentrations of heparin. We showed that 75% of the HIT patients' plasma induced the formation of leukocyte-platelet-aggregates in a heparin-dependent-manner. The formation of leukocyte-platelet-aggregates induced by HIT plasma in the presence of heparin was (i) independent of the healthy blood donor FcgammaRIIa polymorphism, (ii) correlated with the levels of anti H-PF4 IgG antibodies contained in the patients' plasma, and to a lesser extent to anti H-PF4 IgM antibodies, and (iii) was mediated by P-selectin. This report opens new prospects in the study of the molecular and cellular events implicated in HIT.

Abstract
On endothelial cells, thrombin binds to thrombomodulin (TM), an integral membrane-bound glycoprotein, and to protease-activated receptors (PARs). Thrombin binding to TM modulates endothelial cell and smooth muscle cell proliferation mediated through PAR1. We studied the phosphorylation and nuclear translocation of extracellular signal-regulated kinases (ERKs) 1 and 2 in human umbilical vein endothelial cells activated by thrombin. Thrombin and thrombin receptor-activating peptide (TRAP)-induced DNA synthesis were significantly inhibited by PD98059, an inhibitor of ERK phosphorylation. Immunoblots of phosphorylated ERKs (pERKs) and immunocytochemical studies of pERK localization revealed differences in the signal generated by thrombin and TRAP. After a short activation (15 minutes), the phosphorylation and the intracellular localization of pERKs were the same with the 2 agonists. After 4 hours, however, pERKs were visualized in the nuclei of thrombin-activated cells but barely detectable in TRAP-activated cells. Moreover, after 4 hours, the pERKs were visualized in the nuclei of cells stimulated by TRAP in the presence of a thrombin mutant that bound to TM, whereas they were around the nuclei in cells stimulated by thrombin in the presence of a monoclonal antibody preventing thrombin binding to TM. The results demonstrate that ERKs are involved in human umbilical vein endothelial cell DNA synthesis mediated by PAR agonists, that the duration of pERK nuclear retention is in inverse ratio to the mitogenic response, and that in addition to its role in the regulation of blood coagulation, TM acts as a thrombin receptor that modulates the duration of pERK nuclear retention and cell proliferation in response to thrombin.

Abstract
Agonist-induced platelet activation triggers 'inside-out' signalling which activates alpha IIb-beta 3, the most abundant integrin in platelet membranes. The engagement of activated alpha IIb-beta 3 integrin by linking fibrinogen is necessary for platelet aggregation, and this induces subsequent outside-in signalling, which enhances platelet activation. Here we studied the involvement of Cbl during alpha IIb-beta 3-integrin-mediated signal transduction. During thrombin-induced platelet activation, Cbl was tyrosine phosphorylated, and phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI 3-kinase) activity measured in Cbl immunoprecipitates was increased. Both Cbl phosphorylation and its association with PI 3-kinase were dependent on alpha IIb-beta 3 engagement by linking fibrinogen. The P256 and anti-LIBS6 (ligand-induced binding site 6) antibodies, which activate platelets directly through alpha IIb-beta 3, induced Cbl phosphorylation and increased the PI 3-kinase activity associated with Cbl. Both thrombin and antibodies to alpha IIb-beta 3 induced association of Cbl with the tyrosine kinase, Syk. Experiments performed with inhibitors of tyrosine kinases indicated that both Src-family kinases and Syk contribute to phosphorylation of Cbl and its consequent association with PI 3-kinase. The results show that, following integrin alpha IIb-beta 3 engagement, Cbl is tyrosine phosphorylated, recruits PI 3-kinase to this integrin signalling pathway and possibly enhances PI 3-kinase activity, downstream of Src-family tyrosine kinases and Syk activation.

Abstract
We studied whether platelets could participate in the endothelial cell monolayer regeneration in the case of a vessel damage. Incorporation of [3H]-thymidine into the DNA of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) was measured after 48 h of co-incubation with platelets. The effect of platelets was compared to that of platelet-free supernatants from thrombin-activated platelets that had secreted their active granule constituents. Platelets dose-dependently induced HUVEC proliferation. Platelets preactivated by thrombin induced similar proliferation as did unactivated platelets (proliferation factor = 7 - 8), indicating that preactivation of platelets was not required. Platelets fixed with paraformaldehyde had no effect, suggesting that the platelet mitogenic effect required a mobile, alive membrane. Ketanserine and suramin reduced by at most 30 % the platelet-induced proliferation; supernatants of thrombin-activated platelets caused only minor proliferation (proliferation factor = 2), suggesting that secreted 5-hydroxytryptamine and growth factors poorly contributed to the proliferative effect. When the co-incubation was performed in the presence of an anti P-selectin antibody, the platelet-induced HUVEC proliferation was inhibited. The results suggest that platelet adhesion participate in the control of the endothelial regeneration and that platelet P-selectin is a molecular determinant of the proliferative signal.

Abstract
The tyrosine kinase p72(Syk) plays a critical role in platelet signal transduction. It associates with the platelet receptor for the Fc domain of IgGs, FcgammaRII, following stimulation by FcgammaRII cross-linking. Here, we show that p72(Syk) and FcgammaRII tyrosine phosphorylation and association occured following platelet stimulation by: (1) two monoclonal antibodies, which form a bridge between a target antigen and FcgammaRII, and (2) the G-protein-coupled receptor agonist thrombin. The kinetics of the p72(Syk)/FcgammaRII association depended on the signalling pathway (i.e., the antigen targeted or the thrombin receptor). We established a direct relationship between the level of FcgammaRII phosphorylation and the detection of its association with p72(Syk). Inhibition of p72(Syk) by piceatannol resulted in partial or total inhibition of FcgammaRII phosphorylation, after immunological activation or addition of thrombin, respectively, suggesting that p72(Syk) participates in FcgammaRII phosphorylation. The results provide evidence that p72(Syk)/FcgammaRII association is not restricted to immunological activation.

Abstract
The human protease-activated receptor 1 (PAR-1) is activated by thrombin at the surface of platelets and endothelial cells, 2 cells that are implicated in hemostasis and thrombosis. We studied the PAR-1 gene in a large case-control study from the Paris Thrombosis Study (PATHROS), and the possible implication of polymorphisms in venous thromboembolism was evaluated. Two polymorphisms were found in the 5' regulatory region. The first is a C to T transition that is 1426 nucleotides upstream from the translation start site (-1426 C/T), and the second is a 13-bp insertion repeating the preceding -506 5'-CGGCCGCGGGAAG-3' sequence (-506 I/D, where I indicates insertion and D indicates deletion), a putative cis-acting element of the Ets family. The third polymorphism is an A to T transversion in the intervening sequence (IVS) that is 14 nucleotides upstream from the exon 2 start site (IVS-14 A/T). The distribution of the 3 polymorphisms was otherwise similar in the 250 cases and the 1214 controls. A noteworthy sex heterogeneity led us to analyze men and women separately with regard to the -506 I/D polymorphism. We found that allele I was less frequent in male cases than in male controls (0.154 versus 0.247, P<0.01), with an odds ratio at 0.52 (95% CI 0. 32 to 0.82, P<0.01). Furthermore, a reduction of prothrombin fragment 1+2 levels was observed in homozygous carriers of allele -506 I (P=0.04). Altogether, these data suggested a protective effect in men of -506 I/D polymorphism for venous thromboembolism.

Abstract
Protein phosphorylation was studied during platelet stimulation in two ranges of ionized [Ca2+]. At ionized [Ca2+]i< or = 1 microM, proteins were phosphorylated. At ionized [Ca2+]i > or = 4 microM, phosphoproteins disappeared. Protein dephosphorylation was prevented by the combined action of calpeptin and phosphatase inhibitors. Protein tyrosine phosphatase activity was stimulated regardless of the ionized [Ca2+] level. Protein tyrosine kinase activity was stimulated at ionized [Ca2+]i < or =1 microM, whereas at ionized [Ca2+]i > or =4 microM, no protein tyrosine kinase activity was observed except in the presence of calpeptin. Thus, the massive tyrosine phosphoprotein disappearance observed at a high ionized [Ca2+]i resulted not only in protein tyrosine phosphatase activation, but also in calpain-induced protein tyrosine kinase inactivation.

Abstract
The platelet receptor for the Fc domain of IgGs (FcgammaRIIa) triggers intracellular signaling through protein tyrosine phosphorylations leading to platelet aggregation. In this study, we focused on the adaptor protein p120(cbl) (Cbl), which became tyrosine-phosphorylated after platelet activation induced by antibodies. Cbl phosphorylation was dependent on Fc receptor engagement. An association of Cbl with the p85 subunit of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI 3-K) occurred in parallel with Cbl tyrosine phosphorylation. We showed by in vitro experiments that Cbl/p85 association was mediated by the Src homology 3 domain of p85/PI 3-K and the proline-rich region of Cbl. Inhibition of PI 3-K activity by wortmannin led to the blockade of both platelet aggregation and serotonin release mediated by FcgammaRIIa engagement, whereas it only partly inhibited those induced by thrombin. Thus, PI 3-K may play a crucial role in the initiation of platelet responses after FcgammaRIIa engagement. Our results suggest that Cbl is involved in platelet signal transduction by the recruitment of PI 3-K to the FcgammaRIIa pathway, possibly by increasing PI 3-K activity.

Abstract
The platelet phosphotyrosine phosphatase (PTP) SHP-1 is tyrosine phosphorylated during thrombin-induced activation. Stimulation of platelets by the ionophore A23187 in the presence of CaCl2 induced a calpain dependent cleavage of SHP-1. SHP-1 proteolysis was undetectable during thrombin-induced stimulation. When SHP-1 was tyrosine phosphorylated by thrombin, further addition of A23187 failed to induce its cleavage. In the presence of tyrphostin to inhibit thrombin-induced SHP-1 tyrosine phosphorylation, SHP-1 was cleaved. Thus, only the tyrosine unphosphorylated form of SHP-1 was a substrate for calpain. A23187 induced the disappearance of all platelet phosphotyrosine proteins and a two-fold increase in PTP activity, both inhibited by pervanadate, a PTP inhibitor, but unaffected by calpeptin, a calpain inhibitor. The data show that SHP-1 is either tyrosine phosphorylated or cleaved by calpain, and suggest that SHP-1 cleavage does not contribute to A23187-induced PTP activity.

Abstract
Thrombin interacts with its receptor and thrombomodulin on endothelial cells. We evaluated the respective roles of these two proteins on human umbilical vein endothelial cell (HUVEC) growth by comparing thrombin, S195A (a mutant thrombin in which the serine of the charge stabilizing system had been replaced by alanine), and the receptor activating peptide (TRAP). Thrombin and TRAP induced DNA synthesis (half maximal cell proliferation with 5 nM and 25 microM, respectively), whereas S195A thrombin was inactive, inferring that growth is mediated through the thrombin receptor. Surprisingly, cells stimulated by TRAP exhibited a maximal proliferation twice greater than that obtained with thrombin. Combination of thrombin and TRAP resulted in a mitogenic response higher than by thrombin alone, but lower than by TRAP alone. The role of thrombomodulin was evaluated by adding an anti-thrombomodulin antibody, which prevents formation of the thrombin-thrombomodulin complex. Antibody did not interfere with cell proliferation induced by TRAP, but enhanced that induced by thrombin. We conclude that formation of the thrombin-thrombomodulin complex restrains HUVEC proliferation mediated through the thrombin receptor.

Abstract
In southern Brazil, envenomation by larvae of the moth Lonomia obliqua (Walker) may result in blood clotting factor depletion, leading to disseminated intravascular coagulation with subsequent haemorrhage and acute renal failure which may prove fatal. We have examined the effect of a crude extract of spicules from these caterpillars on in vitro hemostasis. The extract alone did not aggregate platelets and had no detectable effect on purified fibrinogen, suggesting that extract induces clot formation by triggering activation of the clotting cascade. In agreement with the presence of thrombin-mediated activity, hirudin prevented clot formation. The extract was found to activate both prothrombin and factor X, suggesting that the depletion of blood clotting factors results from the steady activation of factor X and prothrombin. Heating and diisopropylfluorophosphate abolished the procoagulant activity of the extract, indicating that the active component involved is a protein that may belong to the serine protease family of enzymes. The ability of hirudin to inhibit this coagulant activity suggests that this inhibitor could be beneficial in the treatment of patients envenomed by L. obliqua caterpillars.

Abstract
Heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT) involves heparin-dependent antibodies which induce platelet activation. In the present study, we searched for a relationship between the polymorphism of the Fc receptor (FcgammaRIIa) and the development of HIT. In this purpose, all the donors were genotyped for their FcgammaRIIA and HIT patients were selected on the basis of at least one positive answer by 14C-serotonin release assay (SRA). The frequency distribution of the FcgammaRIIa polymorphism in the HIT patient group was similar to that observed in the healthy control group. Moreover, a statistical analysis taking into account our results and those of 3 previously published studies, suggested at most only a weak association between HIT and the FcgammaRIIa-131 polymorphism. Laboratory tests used to diagnose HIT rely on the activation of normal donor platelets but fail to detect every HIT positive patient. We determined the role of FcgammaRIIa-131 polymorphism on the reactivity of control platelets to HIT plasmas. When control platelet FcgammaRIIa-131 was of Arg/Arg form, only 47% of the HIT plasmas were positive by SRA, compared to 81% and 74% for His/His or His/Arg forms, respectively. We also compared the level of anti PF4/heparin antibodies in the HIT plasmas with the response obtained by SRA. The mean anti PF4/heparin antibodies level in HIT plasma was significantly lower in negative SRA than in positive tests when using control platelets from FcgammaRIIa-Arg/Arg 131 and heterozygous donors. Thus, the variability of control platelets to respond to HIT plasmas in the SRA test is related to both the FcgammaRIIa-131 polymorphism, and to the amount of anti PF4/heparin antibodies.

Abstract
Considering that platelet response to thrombin receptor activation might be critical for the development of arterial thrombosis, we measured the dense granule release under stimulation by the thrombin receptor activating peptide (TRAP) in a series of 102 healthy volunteers. The threshold TRAP concentration which initiated a secretion ranged from 3 to 20 microM. A good concordance (79%, k=0.677) between two tests performed at a 1 month interval indicated that platelet response to thrombin receptor activation was characteristic of each individual donor. Since the threshold concentration required to initiate secretion corresponded to the threshold concentration which induced a biphasic aggregation, all volunteers were genotyped for the PlA2 polymorphism, the Pro33 variant of GPIIIa. Platelets from subjects with the PlA2 polymorphism required higher TRAP concentrations to aggregate than those from subjects with no PlA2 allele (P=0.0012). However, they also required a higher ADP concentration to aggregate. In order to exclude any influence of GPIIIa polymorphism on TRAP-induced secretion, we studied the variability of platelet response to TRAP among the 77 individuals with no PlA2 allele, and found the same interdonor variability with the same distribution of threshold TRAP concentrations as for the 102 individuals. The results suggest that (i) platelet secretion in response to thrombin receptor activation could be a genetically controlled phenotype independent of the GPIIIa polymorphism; (ii) the PlA2 polymorphism is associated with platelet hypoaggregability.

Abstract
Platelets contain two main types of secretory organelles, the dense granules and the alpha-granules. P-selectin, a specific receptor for leukocytes that is present in the alpha-granule membrane, has also been demonstrated to be associated with the dense granule limiting membrane, showing that a relationship exists between these two types of secretory granules. We have previously shown that the plasma membrane receptors glycoproteins (Gp) IIb-IIIa and Ib are also present in the alpha-granule membrane. To document further the composition of the dense granule membrane, we have used immunoelectron microscopy in the present work to determine if the dense granule membrane also contains these glycoproteins. First, the cytochemical method of Richards and Da Prada (J Histochem Cytochem 25:1322, 1977), which specifically enhances dense body electron density, was combined with immunogold-labeled anti-Gp IIb-IIIa or anti-Gp Ib antibody. A consistent and reproducible labeling for Gp IIb-IIIa, but less for Gp Ib, was found in the membrane of platelet dense granules. Subsequently, double immunogold labeling was performed on frozen thin sections of resting platelets using antibodies directed against the dense body components granulophysin or P-selectin, followed by anti-Gp IIb-IIIa or anti-Gp Ib. Consistent labeling for Gp IIb-IIIa and weaker labeling for Gp Ib were detected in dense bodies. The possibility that the granulophysin-positive structures could be lysosomes was excluded by the presence of P-selectin. Immunogold labeling of isolated dense granule fractions confirmed these results. Identical findings were made on human cultured megakaryocytes using double immunolabeling. In conclusion, this study demonstrates the presence of Gp IIb-IIIa and Gp Ib on the dense granule membrane. This observation provides additional evidence of similarities between the alpha-granule and dense granule membranes and raises the possibility of a dual mechanism responsible for the formation of dense granules similar to that of alpha-granules, ie, endogenous synthesis as well as endocytosis from the plasma membrane.

Abstract
1. Proteoglycans provide negatively charged sites on the surface of platelets, leukocytes and endothelial cells. Since chondroitin 4-sulphate is the main proteoglycan present on the platelet surface, the role of this molecule in mediating the activation of human platelets by polylysine was studied. 2. Platelets were desensitized with phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA, 10 nM) 5 min before the addition of polylysine to platelet-rich plasma (PRP). Changes in the intracellular Ca2+ concentration were measured in fura2-am (2 microM) loaded platelets and protein phosphorylation was assessed by autoradiography of the electrophoretic profile obtained from [32P]-phosphate labelled platelets. The release of dense granule contents was measured in [14C]-5-hydroxytryptamine loaded platelets and the synthesis of thromboxane (TXA2) was assessed by radioimmunoassay. Surface chondroitin 4-sulphate proteoglycan was degraded by incubating platelets with different concentrations of chondroitinase AC (3 min, 37 degrees C). The amount of chondroitin 4-sulphate remaining in the platelets was then quantified after proteolysis and agarose gel electrophoresis. 3. The addition of PMA to PRP before polylysine inhibited the aggregation by 88 +/- 18% (n = 3). Staurosporine (1 microM, 5 min) prevented the PMA-induced inhibition. Chondroitinase AC (4 pu ml-1 to 400 muu ml-1, 3 min) abolished the polylysine-induced aggregation in PRP but caused only a discrete inhibition of ADP-induced aggregation. The concentration of chrondroitin 4-sulphate in PRP (0.96 +/- 0.2 microgram/10(8) platelets, n = 3) and in washed platelets (WP; 0.35 +/- 0.1 microgram/10(8) platelets, n = 3) was significantly reduced following incubation with chondroitinase AC (PRP = 0.63 +/- 0.1 microgram/10(8) platelets and WP = 0.08 +/- 0.06 microgram/10(8) platelets). 4. Washed platelets had a significantly lower concentration of chondroitin 4-sulphate than platelets in PRP. The addition of polylysine to WP induced a rapid increase in light transmission which was not accompanied by TXA2 synthesis or the release of dense granule contents. This effect was not inhibited by sodium nitroprusside (SNP), iloprost, EDTA or the peptide RGDS. This event was accompanied by the discrete phosphorylation of plekstrin and myosin light chain, which were inhibited by staurosporine (10 microM, 10 min). The hydrolysis of platelet surface chondroitin 4-sulphate strongly reduced the polylysine-induced phosphorylation. 5. Our results indicate that polylysine activates platelets through a specific receptor which could be the proteoglycan chondroitin 4-sulphate present on the platelet membrane.

Abstract
Protein tyrosine phosphatase 1C (PTP1C), highly expressed in hematopoietic cells, is a soluble protein tyrosine phosphatase containing two Src homology 2 (SH2) domains at the N-terminus and two putative sites of tyrosine phosphorylation at the C-terminus. This paper reports that PTP1C and c-Src could be coimmunoprecipitated during thrombin-induced platelet activation. Moreover, association between the two signalling proteins occurred only after PTP1C had been tyrosine phosphorylated. In in vitro experiments, PTP1C bound to the SH2 domain of c-Src, suggesting that association between tyrosine phosphorylated PTP1C and c-Src was mediated by the SH2 domain of c-Src. Finally, in resting platelets, PTP1C was mainly found in the Nonidet P-40 soluble fraction whereas following thrombin-induced activation, around 17% of PTP1C was associated with the insoluble fraction.

Abstract
Cathepsin G, an enzyme released by stimulated polymorphonuclear neutrophils, and thrombin are two human proteinases which potently trigger platelet activation. Unlike thrombin, the mechanisms by which cathepsin G initiates platelet activation have yet to be elucidated. The involvement of the phospholipase C (PLC)/protein kinase C (PKC) pathway in cathepsin G-induced activation was investigated and compared with stimulation by thrombin. Exposure of 5-[14C]hydroxytryptamine-labelled platelets to cathepsin G, in the presence of acetylsalicylic acid and phosphocreatine/creatine kinase, induced platelet aggregation and degranulation in a concentration-dependent manner (0.1-3.0 microM). Time-course studies (0-180 s) comparing equivalent concentrations of cathepsin G (3 microM) and thrombin (0.5 unit/ml) resulted in very similar transient hydrolysis of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate and steady accumulation of phosphatidic acid. In addition cathepsin G, like thrombin, initiated the production of inositol phosphates. The neutrophil-derived proteinase also induced phosphorylation of both the myosin light chain and pleckstrin, a substrate for PKC, to levels similar to those observed in platelets challenged with thrombin. Inhibition of PKC by GF 109203X, a specific inhibitor, suppressed platelet aggregation and degranulation to the same extent for both proteinases. Using fura 2-loaded platelets, the rise in the cytosolic free Ca2+ concentration induced by cathepsin G was shown to result, as for thrombin, from both mobilization of internal stores and Ca2+ entry across the plasma membrane. These findings provide evidence that cathepsin G stimulates the PLC/PKC pathway as potently as does thrombin, independently of thromboxane A2 formation and ADP release, and that this pathway is required for platelet functional responses.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to determine if there is a correlation between the activity of a MoAb as an agonist and its ability to bind to the Fc platelet receptor, Fc gamma RIIa. A polymorphism at amino acid 131 [arginine (Arg) or histidine (His)] of Fc gamma RIIa was first shown to be determinant for MoAb-IgG1 binding on monocytes. To clarify the role of this polymorphism in platelet activation by MoAb-IgG1 we (i) established the Fc gamma RIIa polymorphism at the gene level by adapting the denaturating gradient gel electrophoresis method, (ii) analyzed the binding affinity of the MoAbs to Fc gamma RIIa on platelets from homozygous Arg, homozygous His, and heterozygous Arg/His donors, and (iii) characterized the different reactivities of platelets according to the Fc gamma RIIA polymorphism. Among 167 caucasian donors we found 46% heterozygous Arg/His, 36% homozygous His and 18% homozygous Arg. ALB6, and anti CD9, P256 an anti GPIIb-IIIa, and AP3 an anti-GPIIIa were chosen according to their ability (ALB6, P256) or not (AP3) to activate platelets. These 3 MoAbs-IgG1 bind to Fc gamma RIIa with a stronger affinity for the Arg-form of Fc gamma RIIa, a result which was confirmed with the use of diverse MoAbs directed against various antigens. The different abilities of MoAbs to bind to the two Fc gamma RIIa forms were well correlated to the different platelet responses induced by ALB6 and P256. However, low concentrations of ALB6, which allow full activation of platelets from homozygous Arg donors, as did P256, did not induce any activation of platelets from homozygous His donors, whereas P256 is able to induce a low aggregation. The results further define the respective roles of the antigen and the Fc receptor, depending on the MoAb, and the role of the Fc gamma RIIa polymorphism in platelet activation induced by MoAbs. In addition, the results obtained with MoAbs unable to induce platelet activation provided evidence that the binding of a MoAb on Fc gamma RIIa does not predict its ability to activate platelets.

Abstract
Synthetic peptides (TRAP or Thrombin Receptor Activating Peptide) corresponding to at least the first five aminoacids of the new N-terminal tail generated after thrombin proteolysis of its receptor are effective to mimic thrombin. We have studied two different TRAPs (SFLLR, and SFLLRN) in their effectiveness to induce the different platelet responses in comparison with thrombin. Using Indo-l/AM-labelled platelets, the maximum rise in cytoplasmic ionized calcium was lower with TRAPs than with thrombin. At threshold concentrations allowing maximal aggregation (50 microM SFLLR, 5 microM SFLLRN and 1 nM thrombin) the TRAPs-induced release reaction was about the same level as with thrombin, except when external calcium was removed by addition of 1 mM EDTA. In these conditions, the dense granule release induced by TRAPs was reduced by over 60%, that of lysosome release by 75%, compared to only 15% of reduction in the presence of thrombin. Thus calcium influx was more important for TRAPs-induced release than for thrombin-induced release. At strong concentrations giving maximal aggregation and release in the absence of secondary mediators (by pretreatment with ADP scavengers plus aspirin), SFLLRN mobilized less calcium, with a fast return towards the basal level and induced smaller lysosome release than did thrombin. The results further demonstrate the essential role of external calcium in triggering sustained and full platelet responses, and emphasize the major difference between TRAP and thrombin in mobilizing [Ca2+]i. Thus, apart from the proteolysis of the seven transmembrane receptor, another thrombin binding site or thrombin receptor interaction is required to obtain full and complete responses.

Abstract
We have investigated tubulin phosphorylation in human platelets, in order to evaluate whether it might be involved in the microtubular marginal band reorganization during platelet activation. Tubulin was identified with the use of specific monoclonal antibodies directed against alpha and beta subunits of tubulin. After metabolic 32P-labeling of platelets and analysis of separated proteins from whole cells, no phosphorylation of tubulin could be detected on autoradiography of platelet proteins either in resting platelets or during thrombin-induced activation. We also analyzed tubulin-enriched cytoskeletal fractions of resting or thrombin-stimulated platelets prepared in the presence of taxol, in comparison with tubulin-deprived cytoskeletal fractions prepared in the absence of this microtubule-stabilizing drug. Neither polymeric tubulin, assembled in microtubules and belonging to the platelet cytoskeleton, nor dimeric soluble tubulin showed significant 32P labeling. Finally, no tubulin was recovered among tyrosine-phosphorylated platelet proteins immunoprecipitated with a specific anti-phosphotyrosine protein monoclonal antibody. Thus, human platelet tubulin is not phosphorylated either in unstimulated platelets or in thrombin-stimulated platelets. The fact that both alpha and beta subunits are involved appears to be a unique feature of platelets in comparison with other cells. Microtubule-associated proteins are more likely to be involved in the unbundling of the platelet marginal band.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The preparation of platelet concentrates (PCs) from buffy coats (BCs) stored at room temperature is controversial, because of the strong metabolic activity of cells in BCs and the possible detrimental effect of neutrophil enzymes on platelets when the holding time before separation is prolonged. Despite good in vitro and in vivo behavior of BC-PCs stored in synthetic solution, little is known of the quality of BC-PCs stored in plasma. STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS Comparison was made of PCs prepared from BCs held at 22 degrees C for 3 hours (3-hour BC-PCs) or overnight (12-hour BC-PCs) and stored in plasma. Platelet and white cell counts, pH, response to osmotic shock, and morphologic scores were determined on 20 PCs of each type. The decrease in dense granule and alpha granule content, a marker of platelet activation, were estimated by mepacrine counting and beta-thromboglobulin measurement, respectively (n = 8-10). Platelet function was studied in terms of aggregation and thromboxane production in response to various concentrations of collagen and thrombin (n = 8-17). PCs prepared from unstored BCs (n = 15) and from BCs held for 90 minutes (n = 15) were used as controls. RESULTS Platelet yield was increased from 53 +/- 10 percent of donated platelets to 73 +/- 4 percent by increasing the BC holding time from 0 to 90 minutes to 3 hours (p < 0.001). Similar yields (7.8 +/- 1.8 vs. 7.9 +/- 2 x 10(10) platelets) and white cell contamination (0.9 +/- 0.8 vs. 1.0 +/- 0.9 x 10(7)) were obtained with 3-hour and 12-hour BC-PCs. At the end of the storage period (Day 5), all variables known to correlate with platelet survival in vivo were well maintained in both 3-hour and 12-hour BC-PCs: pH > or = 6.9, response to osmotic shock > or = 70 percent, and morphology scores always > or = 240. During storage, the dense granule content decreased moderately (30% after 5 days), whatever the conditions. By contrast, the total platelet beta-thromboglobulin content was better preserved in 12-hour BC-PCs than in 3-hour BC-PCs (p < 0.04). No significant differences were observed in collagen-induced aggregation and thromboxane production in the two PC preparations. However, aggregation responses to thrombin were higher in 12-hour BC-PCs on Day 5 of storage (p < 0.01). CONCLUSION BCs can be held at 22 degrees C for up to 12 hours, with no detrimental effect on the quality of PCs stored for up to 5 days in plasma. Such a holding time might help overcome logistic problems in blood banks.

Abstract
An autoantibody, developed by a patient with severe and recurrent arterial thrombosis, was characterized to be directed against the anion-binding exosite of thrombin, and inhibited all thrombin interactions requiring this secondary binding site without interfering with the catalytic site. The effect of the antibody was studied on thrombin interactions with platelets and endothelial cells from human umbilical veins (HUVEC). The autoantibody specifically and concentration-dependently inhibited alpha-thrombin-induced platelet activation and prostacyclin (PGI2) synthesis from HUVEC. It had no effect when gamma-thrombin or the thrombin receptor activation peptide SFLLR were the inducers. The effect of the antibody on protein C activation has been studied. The antibody blocked the thrombin-thrombomodulin activation of protein C. The inhibition of the activation was maximal with a low concentration of thrombomodulin. The fact that the autoantibody inhibited concentration-dependent alpha-thrombin-induced platelet and endothelial cell functions emphasizes the crucial role of the anion-binding exosite of thrombin to activate its receptor. In regard to the pathology, the antibody inhibited two vascular processes implicated in thrombin-antithrombotic functions, PGI2 secretion, and protein C activation, which could be implicated in this arterial thrombotic disease.

Abstract
We have investigated the regulation of tyrosine proteins phosphorylation by intracellular Ca2+ level ([Ca2+]i) and protein kinase C (PKC) during platelet stimulation. We found that chelation of extracellular calcium completely prevented phosphorylation of tyrosine proteins induced by thapsigargin and phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA), whereas, when induced by thrombin, it prevented a subset of tyrosine proteins. The selective inhibition of PKC by GF 109203X did not abolish tyrosine protein phosphorylation when induced by thrombin and thapsigargin. The results suggest that in human platelets tyrosine protein phosphorylation is dependent on [Ca2+]i, although direct PKC activation can also induce phosphorylation of tyrosine proteins.

Abstract
After incorporation of spin-labeled phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylserine, and phosphatidylethanolamine analogues in the outer leaflet of the plasma membrane in resting platelets, more than 90% amino-head analogues accumulated within 30 min in the inner leaflet by aminophospholipid translocase activity, while choline analogues mostly remained on the outer leaflet. Platelets were then activated by thrombin or Ca2+ ionophore A23187. No outward movement of internally located spin-labeled aminophospholipids was observed during thrombin-induced activation, whereas the influx of externally located probes increased slightly. During A23187-mediated activation, similar slightly increased influx was observed, while 40-50% of the initially internally located aminophospholipids could then be extracted from the outer leaflet. This sudden exposure on the outer face was dependent on an increase in intracellular Ca2+ and achieved in less than 2 min at 37 degrees C. Inhibition of translocase activity by N-ethylmaleimide did not induce any aminophospholipid outflux. When probes were incorporated on the outer face of the plasma membrane in resting platelets, they were still fully accessible from the extracellular medium after A23187-induced activation. Moreover, they were distributed between the vesicles and remnant platelets in proportion to the external membrane phospholipidic content in each structure. This suggested that no scrambling of plasma membrane leaflets occurred during the vesicle blebbing. Moreover, the spin-labeled aminophospholipids exposure rate and amplitude were unchanged when vesicle formation was inhibited by the calpain inhibitor calpeptin. These results indicate that loss of asymmetry thus inducing generation of a catalytic surface is not the consequence of vesicle formation. Conversely, we propose that vesicle shedding is an effect of PL transverse redistribution and calpain-mediated proteolysis during activation.

Abstract
In this study, two mAbs that recognize specifically the src protein pp60(c-src) in a wide variety of cells (mAb 327 and GD11) have been used to vizualize the src protein expression on human platelets by immunogold electron microscopy. The mAb D545 directed against the dense granule membrane p40 protein granulophysin was used as a control. Almost no pp60(c-src) could be detected on the plasma membrane from resting platelets. However, it appeared on the platelet surface after thrombin stimulation and was found preferentially on the pseudopods. The distribution of the src protein on thrombin-activated platelets was similar to that of granulophysin, the dense granule protein, although in a much lesser extent. In platelets from patients with the gray-platelet syndrome, devoid of alpha-granules, pp60(c-src) was absent on resting platelet surface but after thrombin activation expressed at the membrane surface to a normal extent. The results suggest that the src protein is indeed located in an intraplatelet component which is liberated during platelet stimulation, this finding being compatible with its dense granule localization.

Abstract
Spin labeled phospholipid analogs were used to directly study changes in aminophospholipid translocase activity in activated platelets. In thrombin-activated platelets, the translocase activity was slightly stimulated, whereas no vesicle formation or proteolysis of cytoskeletal protein occurred. Ca2+ ionophore A23187-mediated activation produced vesiculation and proteolysis. Additionally, the translocase activity was completely inhibited, probably due to a sharp rise the intracellular Ca2+ concentration, as shown when platelets were activated in the presence of various A23187 and Ca2+ concentrations and by the recovery of the translocase activity when Ca2+ was complexed with EGTA. No translocase activity was found in vesicles. Whereas vesiculation and translocase inhibition can occur independently of proteolysis, this later accentuated the shedding phenomenon.

Abstract
Protein tyrosine kinase (PTK) blockers (tyrphostins) inhibit in a dose-dependent fashion thrombin-induced aggregation and serotonin release with IC50 values in the 10-35 microM concentration range. The inhibition of thrombin-induced aggregation correlates with their potency in inhibiting phosphorylation of proteins on tyrosine residues. Using metabolically 32P-labelled human platelets, it was found that the tyrphostins have no effect on the decrease in [32P]phosphatidylinositol bisphosphate but prevent the replenishment of [32P]polyphosphoinositide. Tyrphostins decreased [32P]phosphatidic acid production induced by thrombin, although never by more than 50%, and only delayed the peak of diacylglycerol, suggesting that phospholipase C was still activated. Tyrphostins inhibited the thrombin-elicited early phosphorylation of p43 and p20, substrates for protein kinase C (PKC) and myosin light chain kinase, respectively, at short times of activation. This inhibition, however, was overcome after 1 min of stimulation with thrombin. Tyrphostin AG213 also inhibited platelet aggregation and tyrosine protein phosphorylation induced by phorbol myristate acetate (PMA), but did not inhibit pleckstrin phosphorylation. These results suggest that thrombin induces the phosphorylation of proteins on tyrosine residues which most probably results in the activation of phosphoinositide kinases. The ability of tyrphostins to inhibit phosphorylation of p43 and p20 when induced by thrombin but not when induced by PMA confirms that PTKs may be involved subsequent to PKC activation.

Abstract
During activation of platelets by agonists, a number of proteins become phosphorylated at tyrosine residues. Using immunoblotting with a monoclonal anti-phosphotyrosine antibody, we have compared the different phosphotyrosine-protein (PTP) profiles of platelets stimulated with thrombin, collagen, ADP, arachidonic acid, phorbol myristate acetate and P256, an anti-glycoprotein-IIb-IIIa (GPIIb-IIIa) monoclonal antibody (mAb). Only a few PTPs were observed in resting platelets, of molecular masses 130, 64, 56-60 and 36 kDa. After stimulation by different agonists these proteins were more intensely phosphorylated and additional PTPs appeared with molecular masses of 170, 150, 140, 120, 105/97 (doublet), 85, 80, 75 and 45 kDa. The kinetics of phosphorylation differed from one agonist to another, but no significant differences in the overall patterns were detected, except in presence of ADP and P256-F(ab')2, which induced only the additional tyrosine phosphorylation of the 64 kDa protein and to a lesser extent that of a 75 kDa protein. The use of various agonists and the inhibitors (staurosporine, ajoene and RGDS) permitted a better characterization of the relationship between the different steps of activation and phosphorylation on tyrosine residues. The studies suggest the following conclusions: (i) stimulation of tyrosine phosphorylation occurs after activation of protein kinase C; (ii) there is a relationship between ligand binding to GPIIb-IIIa and the tyrosine phosphorylation of the 64 kDa protein; and (iii) there is a close relationship between PTP formation and the intensity of platelet activation and aggregation.

Abstract
In this study, the clinical history of two patients with the gray platelet syndrome, a rare congenital disorder associating thrombopathia and myelofibrosis is recalled. Complementary studies on platelets and megakaryocytes were performed, mainly with an immunocytochemical approach. In gray platelets, a general decrease of alpha-granule proteins, including PF4, beta tg and PDGF was observed. The decrease in platelet mitogenic activity (PDGF) was confirmed by biological and radio-immunological measurements. An abnormally high level of these compounds was also found in the plasma. In megakaryocytes cultured from the bone marrow of these patients, alpha-granule proteins were normally expressed in early maturation stages, whereas they were found to be absent in the mature megakaryocytes. An alpha-granule membrane glycoprotein, GMP 140 has been studied in resting and thrombin stimulated gray platelets and was found to be normally expressed at the surface of stimulated platelets. GMP140 was studied in resting platelets by immunoelectron microscopy and found to be present in vacuole probably corresponding to empty granules. This observation allows to conclude that alpha-granule membrane is formed in the gray platelet syndrome, but that there is a storage defect of alpha-granule soluble proteins, possibly due to an abnormal targetting of these proteins to the alpha-granule. Synthesis and subsequent release of these proteins, namely of the mitogenic factors, which can induce myelofibrosis and lung fibrosis by abnormal fibroblast stimulation, is discussed.

Abstract
The mechanisms involved in platelet aggregation by a monoclonal antibody (mAb) P256 specific for the GPIIb-IIIa complex was investigated following metabolic 32P labelling of platelets. When compared with thrombin, inositol phosphates (InsP) production during P256-induced activation was delayed and no apparent peak, but a small and sustained production of [32P]-Ins(1,4,5)P3 and [32P]-Ins(1,3,4,5)P4, was observed between 20 and 90 s. [32P]-Ins(1,3,4)P3 was also produced with a maximum after 90 s. Addition of the ADP scavenger creatinine phosphate/creatine phosphokinase (CP/CPK) and of the cyclooxygenase inhibitor aspirin together with P256 almost totally abolished InsP formation, whereas platelet aggregation and protein phosphorylation were partially inhibited. F(ab')2 fragments of P256 also aggregated platelets but to a smaller extent than IgG, and without any measurable InsPs. To characterize further P256-induced activation, the phosphorylation of p43, the main substrate of protein kinase C (PKC) and the phosphorylation of tyrosine protein (P-Tyr) was also studied. PKC activation was smaller with P256-IgG than with thrombin but both thrombin and P265-IgG induced a similar profile of P-Tyr involving seven major bands, whereas P256-F(ab')2 only occasionally activated PKC but always significantly phosphorylated a 64,000 molecular weight P-Tyr. The data indicate that the binding of P256 to GPIIb-IIIa, in contrast with thrombin, does not initially lead directly to the activation of the phosphoinositide phospholipase C to produce InsP's but rather involves the activation of protein kinases and also both fragments F(ab')2 and Fc play a specific role in the platelet responses to the mAb. Only the crosstalk between the two pathways evoked by F(ab')2 and Fc respectively allows the activation of all platelet activation systems.

Abstract
Tyrphostins are low-molecular-weight inhibitors of protein tyrosine kinases. Since tyrosine kinase activity has been shown to be increased during thrombin-induced platelet activation, the effect of tyrphostins on platelet activation was investigated. Tyrphostins inhibited dose-dependently thrombin-induced aggregation and the release reaction, with a maximum effect at 25 microM. Using immunoblots of platelet proteins revealed with an anti-phosphotyrosine antibody, tyrphostins were effective inhibitors of tyrosine phosphorylation elicited by thrombin. Using metabolically 32P-labelled human platelets, tyrphostins also inhibited phosphorylation of p43, the main substrate for protein kinase C, and myosin light chain particularly at short periods of activation. The results suggest that tyrosine kinase activity may play a role in platelet signal transduction involving the protein kinase C pathway, and that tyrphostins represent a new type of anti-aggregative drugs.

Abstract
KRDS (Lys-Arg-Asp-Ser), a tetrapeptide from human lactotransferrin, was tested in vitro on human platelet function, and its effects were compared to those of RGDS, a tetrapeptide from human fibrinogen. Both peptides had a high probability of initiating a beta-turn and were highly hydrophilic. KRDS inhibited ADP-induced platelet aggregation [median inhibitory concentration (IC50) 350 microM] and fibrinogen binding (IC50 360 microM) to a lesser extent than RGDS (IC50 75 microM and 20 microM, respectively). Different from RGDS, thrombin-induced serotonin release was inhibited by KRDS (750 microM) on normal platelets (55 +/- 10%) and type I Glanzmann's thrombasthenia platelets (43% +/- 1). However, KRDS had no effect on cytoplasmic Ca2+ mobilization, inositol phospholipid metabolism or protein phosphorylation (myosin light chain P20 and P43). In contrast to RGDS, KRDS does not inhibit the binding of monoclonal antibody PAC-1 to activated platelets. KRDS and RGDS inhibited 4 beta-phorbol-12-myristate-13-acetate (PMA)-induced aggregation and fibrinogen binding, while proteins were normally phosphorylated. Thus, the tetrapeptide KRDS is (a) an inhibitor of serotonin release by a mechanism independent of protein phosphorylation and (b) an inhibitor of fibrinogen binding and, hence, aggregation by a mechanism that may not necessarily involve its direct binding to the glycoprotein IIb-IIIa-complex.

Abstract
The responses to alpha- and gamma-thrombin were studied in normal and Bernard-Soulier platelets labelled with [32P]phosphate, to investigate the relationship between thrombin binding to the platelet membrane glycoprotein Ib (GPIb) and thrombin-induced platelet activation. For this purpose we conducted parallel studies of the kinetics of platelet aggregation, granule secretion, hydrolysis of polyphosphoinositides, formation of phosphatidic acid, phosphorylation of the myosin light chain (p20) and of the 43 kDa protein (p43), and thromboxane B2 formation. Like alpha-thrombin, gamma-thrombin activated control platelets via all the above metabolic responses, but only after a prolonged lag. In Bernard-Soulier platelets, alpha-thrombin induced polyphosphoinositide hydrolysis and phosphatidic acid formation, p20 and p43 phosphorylation, thromboxane B2 formation, secretion and to a lesser extent aggregation, but only after a prolonged lag. The metabolic responses of Bernard-Soulier platelets to gamma-thrombin were very similar to those of control platelets. We have previously showed that GPIb which is not present in Bernard-Soulier platelets binds alpha- but not gamma-thrombin. The present results indicate that thrombin binding to GPIb is not directly coupled either with the activation of phospholipase C specific to polyphosphoinositides, or with the activation of protein kinase C and phospholipase A2. However, thrombin binding to GPIb appears to promote an early mechanism which accelerates all the platelet responses.

Abstract
This study analyses early biochemical events in collagen-induced platelet activation. An early metabolic event occurring during the lag phase was the activation of PtdIns(4,5)P2-specific phospholipase C. Phosphatidic acid (PtdOH) formation, phosphorylation of P43 and P20, thromboxane B2 (TXB2) synthesis and platelet secretion began after the lag phase, and were similarly time-dependent, except for TXB2 synthesis, which was delayed. Collagen induced extensive P43 phosphorylation, whereas P20 phosphorylation was weak and always lower than with thrombin. The dose-response curves of P43 phosphorylation and granule secretion were similar, and both reached a peak at 7.5 micrograms of collagen/ml, a dose which induced half-maximal PtdOH and TXB2 formation. Sphingosine, assumed to inhibit protein kinase C, inhibited P43 phosphorylation and secretion in parallel. However, sphingosine was not specific for protein kinase C, since a 15 microM concentration, which did not inhibit P43 phosphorylation, blocked TXB2 synthesis by 50%. Sphingosine did not affect PtdOH formation at all, even at 100 microM, suggesting that collagen itself induced this PtdOH formation, independently of TXB2 generation. The absence of external Ca2+ allowed the cleavage of polyphosphoinositides and the accumulation of InsP3 to occur, but impaired P43 phosphorylation, PtdOH and TXB2 formation, and secretion; these were only restored by adding 0.11 microM-Ca2+. In conclusion, stimulation of platelet membrane receptors for collagen initiates a PtdInsP2-specific phospholipase C activation, which is independent of external Ca2+, and might be the immediate receptor-linked response. A Ca2+ influx is indispensable to the triggering of subsequent platelet responses. This stimulation predominantly involves the protein kinase C pathway associated with secretion, and appears not to be mediated by TXB2, at least during its initial stage.

Abstract
Monoclonal antibody P256, which is specific for glycoprotein IIb-IIIa complex, was found to induce aggregation of normal platelets in plasma. The mechanism of platelet activation induced by this monoclonal antibody was thoroughly studied. The divalent binding to the IIb-IIIa molecule was necessary for triggering aggregation since Fab' fragments did not induce aggregation as did IgG and F(ab')2 fragments; however, F(ab')2 did not induce the release as did the whole IgG. P256-induced aggregation was accompanied by release of all three granule constituents, namely dense granules, alpha-granules and lysosomes, with parallel kinetics showing half-maximum release 50 s after addition of P256. Thromboxane synthesis was initiated at the same time. Using 32P-prelabeled platelets, no variation in level of [32P]phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate could be detected in the first minute after P256 addition, indicating no activation of the calcium-independent phospholipase C specific for polyphosphoinositol phospholipid. P256 induced a calcium mobilization as measured by Indo-1 fluorescence of about the third of that measured in the presence of a thrombin concentration giving the same intensity of aggregation. P256 induced phosphorylation of the myosin light chain p20 and of the main substrate of protein kinase C, p43. Addition of aspirin inhibited almost totally calcium mobilization and partially aggregation, release and protein phosphorylations. By contrast, in the absence of external calcium, although no aggregation could occur, the release reaction was only partially reduced. In this activation, the glycoprotein IIb-IIIa complex thus appears to play a role in modulating platelet response, not only via calcium fluxes but also in activating protein kinase C responsible for p43 phosphorylation.
