Platelet membrane glycoprotein IIb-IIIa exists as a calcium-dependent complex of two large peptides (designated IIb and IIIa) in Triton X-100 solutions, but it remains unknown if these peptides are subunits of one glycoprotein or are actually two individual glycoproteins in the intact platelet membrane. We used crossed immunoelectrophoresis to define the epitopes of two monoclonal antibodies to IIb-IIIa, then used these antibodies to study the structural and functional organization of IIb and IIIa in the platelet membrane. Human platelets solubilized in Triton X-100 were electrophoresed through an intermediate gel containing 125I-monoclonal IgG, then into an upper gel containing rabbit anti-human platelet antibodies. Our previously characterized antibody. Tab, and a new monoclonal antibody, T10, both bound to the immunoprecipitate corresponding to the IIb-IIIa complex. When platelets were electrophoresed after solubilization in 5 mM EDTA, 125I-Tab bound to the dissociated IIb polypeptide, but not to IIIa. In contrast, 125-I-T10 did not react with either IIb or IIIa. Thus, Tab recognizes a determinant on IIb, while T10 recognizes a determinant created only after the association of IIb and IIIa. Gel-filtered platelets from six normal donors bound 50,600 +/- 5,600 125I-T10 molecules/platelet and 47,800 +/- 11,200 125I-Tab molecules/platelet, consistent with IIb-IIIa being a heterodimer. 125I-T10 binding was identical in unactivated platelets and platelets stimulated with 10 microM ADP. However, platelets did not aggregate or bind 125I-fibrinogen until ADP was added. T10, but not Tab or nonimmune mouse antibody, inhibited ADP-induced platelet aggregation and 125I-fibrinogen binding. Our findings suggest that IIb and IIIa exist as subunits of a single membrane glycoprotein in unstimulated platelets. Fibrinogen binding appears to require not only the interaction of IIb and IIIa, but also some additional change occurring after platelet activation.  相似文献

Platelet membrane glycoproteins IIb and IIIa form a Ca2+-dependent heterodimer complex that contains binding sites for fibrinogen, von Willebrand factor, and fibronectin following platelet stimulation. We have studied the effect of Ca2+ on the stability of the IIb-IIIa complex using a IIb-IIIa complex-specific monoclonal antibody A2A9 to detect the presence of the complexes. Soluble IIb and IIIa interacted with A2A9-Sepharose only in the presence of Ca2+ with 50% IIb-IIIa binding requiring 0.4 microM Ca2+. In contrast, at 25 degrees C 125I-A2A9 binding to intact unstimulated platelets suspended in buffers containing EDTA or ethylene glycol bis(beta-aminoethyl ether)-N,N,N',N'-tetraacetic acid was independent of the presence of Ca2+. However, the effect of Ca2+ chelators on 125I-A2A9 binding varied with temperature. At 37 degrees C, 125I-A2A9 binding to intact platelets became Ca2+-dependent with 50% binding requiring 0.4 microM Ca2+. This effect of temperature was not due to a change in platelet membrane fluidity because enrichment or depletion of platelet membrane cholesterol did not influence antibody binding. But, 125I-A2A9 binding to intact platelets at 25 degrees C did become Ca2+-dependent when the pH was increased above 7.4. Thus, at 1 nM Ca2+ and 25 degrees C, 50% antibody binding occurred at pH 9.0. Our studies demonstrate that Ca2+-dependent IIb-IIIa complexes are present on unstimulated platelets and that the Ca2+ binding sites responsible for the stability of these complexes are located on the external platelet surface. Our experiments also suggest that changes in platelet cytosolic Ca2+ do not regulate the formation of IIb-IIIa complexes.  相似文献

A conformation-dependent epitope of human platelet glycoprotein IIIa.   总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2  
This study explores conformational states of human platelet glycoprotein IIIa (GP IIIa) and possible mechanisms of fibrinogen receptor exposure. D3GP3 is an IgG1, kappa monoclonal antibody generated against purified GP IIIa and found to be specific for GP IIIa by immunoprecipitation and Western blot analysis. The binding of D3GP3 to resting platelets caused fibrinogen binding (approximately 5,000 molecules/platelet) and platelet aggregation but not secretion. Platelets express 40,000-50,000 GP IIb-IIIa molecules in their surface membranes. However, resting platelets only bound approximately 5,000 D3GP3 molecules/platelet. D3GP3 binding to platelets could be increased 2-3-fold by dissociation of the GP IIb-IIIa complex with 5 mM EDTA or by occupying the fibrinogen receptor with either RGDS peptides or fibrinogen. Platelet stimulation with ADP in the absence of fibrinogen did not cause increased D3GP3 binding above control levels. These data suggest that 1) GP IIb-IIIa can exist in multiple conformations in the platelet membrane, 2) D3GP3 binding to GP IIIa can expose the fibrinogen receptor, 3) the binding of either RGDS peptides or fibrinogen causes exposure of the D3GP3 epitope, and 4) platelet activation in the absence of ligand does not induce the same conformational changes in GP IIb-IIIa as does receptor occupancy by RGDS peptides or fibrinogen.  相似文献

We describe the production and characterization of a monoclonal antibody specific for platelets. This antibody reacts strongly with human and primate platelets, but does not recognise human monocytes, polymorphonuclear leucocytes, lymphocytes, erythrocytes, leukaemic nor fibroblast cell lines, nor rodent platelets. Immunoprecipitation studies using radiolabelled platelet membrane proteins showed that the monoclonal antibody binds to the platelet membrane glycoprotein IIb-IIIa complex. Affinity chromatography using immobilized monoclonal antibody allows purification of the antigen, but also co-purifies the cytoskeletal proteins actin and myosin.Our results demonstrate immunochemically that although the GP IIb-IIIa complex is an external structure, it is connected through the cell membrane to the microfilament system.  相似文献

Exposure of binding sites for vitronectin on platelets following stimulation   总被引:11,自引:0,他引:11  
Vitronectin is a glycoprotein that mediates cell adhesion and spreading in a number of cell culture systems. Liposomes containing platelet glycoproteins IIb-IIIa complex have been shown to bind vitronectin-coated surfaces through an Arg-Gly-Asp cell attachment mechanism. We examined the expression of the binding sites for vitronectin on the surface of intact, resting platelets and following stimulation. 125I-Labeled vitronectin bound specifically in a saturable manner to platelets treated with physiological concentrations of thrombin. The binding reached saturation at 100 nM concentration, and, at saturation, approximately 5000 specific binding sites were detected per platelet. The binding was divalent cation-dependent and only partially reversible after complete saturation. A synthetic hexapeptide containing the Arg-Gly-Asp sequence inhibited vitronectin binding to platelets. A monoclonal antibody against platelet glycoprotein IIb-IIIa complex also inhibited the binding of vitronectin to stimulated platelets. These data suggest that platelets possess an inducible divalent cation-dependent receptor for vitronectin and that the glycoprotein IIb-IIIa complex is involved in the expression of the vitronectin receptor.  相似文献

A monoclonal antibody, P1H5, to the human fibroblast class II extracellular matrix receptor (ECMR II) specifically inhibits human fibroblast adhesion to collagen and immunoprecipitates a cell surface receptor containing an alpha and beta subunit of approximately 140 kilodaltons each (Wayner, E. A., and Carter, W. G. (1987) J. Cell Biol. 105, 1873-1884). We report here that P1H5 also specifically inhibits adhesion of unactivated human platelets to type I and III collagens, but not to fibronectin. Immunoprecipitation of the class II ECMR from Triton X-100 detergent lysates of platelets, after cell surface iodination, identified the platelet collagen receptor. Peptide mapping confirmed that the II alpha and II beta subunits immunoprecipitated from platelets are structurally homologous with those derived from fibroblasts. The platelet ECMR II alpha and -beta subunits comigrate with platelet membrane glycoproteins Ia and IIa, respectively, on two-dimensional nonreduced-reduced sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis gels. These results indicate that platelet and fibroblast adhesion to collagen are both mediated by a similar receptor and that the alpha and beta subunits of this receptor are identical to platelet membrane glycoproteins Ia and IIa, respectively. Although glycoprotein Ia has been previously implicated as a collagen binding protein, our results are the first direct evidence that platelet glycoprotein Ia is associated with glycoprotein IIa in a heterodimer complex and that this complex, by mediating platelet attachment, is an actual receptor for platelet adhesion to collagen.  相似文献

Stimulated human blood platelets release thrombospondin, an alpha-granule glycoprotein of 450 kDa. The aim of this work was to characterize an anti-thrombospondin monoclonal antibody (P8) in order to study the role of thrombospondin in platelet functions. The presence of thrombospondin receptor sites on resting and thrombin-stimulated platelets of three Glanzmann's thrombasthenia patients and normal donors was investigated using the P8 monoclonal antibody. Monoclonal antibody P8 was extensively characterized using ELISA, immunoprecipitation, immunoadsorbent affinity chromatography combined with tryptic peptide map analysis and crossed immunoelectrophoretic techniques. Labelled P8 bound strongly to thrombin-stimulated normal platelets (n = 14917 +/- 420, mean +/- SD) (Kd = 9.2 +/- 3.0 nM) and poorly to resting platelets (n = 2697 +/- 1278) (Kd = 24.8 +/- 18.6 nM). Moreover, the number of binding sites for P8 on thrombin-stimulated platelets from three Glanzmann's thrombasthenia patients, lacking the IIb-IIIa glycoprotein complex, were found similar to normal samples. F(ab')2 fragments of P8 inhibited aggregation of, and reduced secretion from, washed platelets stimulated by low concentrations of thrombin (0.05-0.06 U/ml) and collagen (0.5-0.6 microgram/ml). F(ab')2 fragments of P8 inhibited thrombin-induced platelet aggregation, but did not reduce fibrinogen binding (n) nor affect its dissociation constant (Kd). Inhibition of platelet aggregation by P8 suggests that thrombospondin plays an active role in promoting platelet aggregation, at low concentrations of thrombin and collagen. Normal binding of P8 to thrombin-stimulated Glanzmann thrombasthenic platelets indicates the presence of a thrombospondin receptor on the platelet surface distinct from the GPIIb-IIIa complex.  相似文献

In vitro binding of an IgE protein to human platelets   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
Bronchoconstriction in extrinsic asthma is initiated by mediators released from IgE-sensitized leukocytes after contact with polyvalent antigen. Because platelets also contain soluble mediators that can cause bronchoconstriction, platelet activation and release of the contents of platelet granules may play a role in IgE-mediated responses under some circumstances. We therefore sought to determine if platelets are capable of binding IgE and if cross-linking this cell-bound IgE initiates secretion of platelet granule contents. Platelets from 10 normal donors were studied by using automated fluorescence analysis and fluorescence microscopy. We detected binding of a purified myeloma IgE protein to 24.1 +/- 9.6% (mean +/- 2 SD) of the gel-filtered platelets from these normal individuals. Although we could detect the binding of IgE and anti-IgE to a minority of cells, every normal individual had a population of platelets that bound IgE. The amount of IgE that bound to normal platelets appeared to be distributed heterogeneously among the IgE-positive platelet population. Platelets from two individuals with type II Glanzmann's thrombasthenia bound normal amounts of heat-aggregated IgG, but less than 3% of the platelets bound detectable IgE. Moreover, a combination of monoclonal antibodies to glycoproteins IIb and IIIa inhibited the binding of the IgE protein to normal platelets but did not affect the binding of aggregated IgG. Thus, the binding of IgE to human platelets appeared to require the presence of the glycoprotein IIb-IIIa complex. Binding of monomeric IgE to platelets, by itself, did not initiate either platelet aggregation or release of 14C-serotonin. However, both aggregation and secretion of serotonin followed the addition of anti-IgE to IgE-sensitized platelets. These studies indicate that human platelets can bind an IgE myeloma protein in vitro and that cross-linking of surface-bound IgE with anti-IgE initiates aggregation and secretion. If platelets have a similar capacity to bind normal IgE in vivo, it is possible that platelets may participate directly in several atopic or inflammatory disorders in man mediated by this class of antibody.  相似文献

Human umbilical vein endothelial (HUVE) and bovine aortic endothelial (BAE) cells in culture were examined to determine whether membrane proteins similar to human platelet glycoproteins (GP) IIb and IIIa were present. The HUVE and BAE cells were either 125I-surface labeled or metabolically labeled. Triton X-100 lysates of labeled cells were immunoprecipitated with polyclonal antibodies prepared against purified human platelet GP IIb-IIIa complex. Two membrane proteins were detected on both HUVE (Mr = 130,000 and 110,000) and BAE (Mr = 135,000 and 105,000) cells, which were similar to human platelet GP IIb (Mr = 125,000) and GP IIIa (Mr = 108,000). The two membrane proteins from HUVE cells and the two from BAE cells cosedimented in sucrose gradients, indicating that they exist as a complex. Unlike the human platelet GP IIb-IIIa complex, the HUVE and BAE membrane protein complexes were not dissociated by chelation of Ca2+. Platelet GP IIb and GP IIIa and the related membrane proteins on both HUVE and BAE cells showed similar changes in electrophoretic mobility upon disulfide reduction. These data demonstrate that human and bovine endothelial cells synthesize membrane proteins that have properties similar to the platelet membrane GP IIb-IIIa complex.  相似文献

Platelet membrane glycoproteins (GP) IIb and IIIa have been identified as platelet aggregation sites. These glycoproteins form a heterodimer complex (GP IIb-IIIa) in the presence of Ca2+. To study the morphology of this glycoprotein complex in membranes, we incorporated GP IIb-IIIa into artificial phospholipid vesicles using a detergent (octyl glucoside) dialysis procedure. Phosphatidylserine-enriched vesicles (70% phosphatidylserine, 30% phosphatidylcholine) incorporated approximately 90% of the GP IIb-IIIa as determined by sucrose flotation. Glycoprotein IIb-IIIa incorporation into the vesicles was unaffected by ionic strength, suggesting a hydrophobic interaction between the glycoprotein and the phospholipid. In both intact platelets or phospholipid vesicles, GP IIb was susceptible to neuraminidase hydrolysis, indicating that most of the glycoprotein complexes were oriented toward the outside of the platelets or vesicles. The morphology of GP IIb-IIIa in the phospholipid vesicles was observed by negative staining electron microscopy. Individual GP IIb-IIIa complexes appeared as spikes protruding as much as 20 nm from the vesicle surface. Each spike consisted of a GP IIb "head," which was distal to the vesicle and was supported by the GP IIIa "tails." The GP IIb-IIIa complex appeared to be attached to the vesicle membrane by the tips of the GP IIIa tails. Treatment of vesicles with EGTA dissociated the GP IIb-IIIa complex. The dissociated glycoproteins remained attached to the phospholipid vesicles, indicating that both GP IIb and GP IIIa contain membrane-attachment sites. These data suggest a possible structural arrangement of the GP IIb-IIIa complex in whole platelets.  相似文献

Platelet glycoproteins IIb and IIIa function as a fibrinogen receptor on the activated platelet. We have shown that these glycoproteins can be incorporated onto the surface of phosphatidylcholine vesicles with retention of fibrinogen and antibody binding properties and can permit Ca2+ transit across the phospholipid bilayer. In the current study we demonstrate that this apparent Ca2+ channel function is specifically inhibited by the synthetic analogue of the fibrinogen gamma COOH-terminal peptide, His-His-Leu-Gly-Gly-Ala-Lys-Gln-Ala-Gly-Asp-Val (His-12-Val), but not by the adhesive protein sequence Arg-Gly-Asp-Ser (RGDS). Prior incubation of IIb-IIIa liposomes with RGDS prevented Ca2+ transit inhibition by 25 microM His-12-Val, analogous to RGDS inhibition of His-12-Val binding to platelets. His-12-Val inhibited a minor component of transmembrane Ca2+ influx into ADP and thrombin-activated human platelets but had no effect on steady-state platelet 45Ca flux. These data indicate that ligand binding may exert a regulatory influence on transmembrane Ca2+ influx into activated platelets. The difference in inhibitory potency of the peptides studied may be related to differences in conformational changes in the glycoprotein IIb-IIIa complex induced by His-12-Val and RGDS, steric considerations, or differences in interactions with glycoprotein IIb Ca2+ binding domains.  相似文献

In the present report we describe the platelet-binding characteristics of applaggin and echistatin, potent inhibitors of fibrinogen-dependent platelet aggregation derived from Agkistrodon piscivorus piscivorus and Echis carinatus snake venoms, respectively. Both molecules bound to unstimulated platelets in a specific and saturable manner. At saturation there were 37,100 +/- 3,150 (mean, +/- S.D.) molecules of applaggin and 27,200 +/- 2,816 molecules of echistatin bound/platelet, with dissociation constants (Kd) of 1.4 +/- 0.6 x 10(-7) M and 4.9 +/- 1.2 x 10(-7) M, respectively. Stimulation of platelets with ADP (10 microM) + epinephrine (2 microM) resulted in an increase in the number of molecules bound at saturation to 42,300 +/- 2,105 for applaggin and 32,185 +/- 3,180 for echistatin, with a Kd of 5.6 +/- 0.3 x 10(-8) M and 1.8 +/- 0.6 x 10(-7) M, respectively. The synthetic peptide (Arg)8-Gly-Asp-Val was a competitive antagonist of applaggin and echistatin binding to unstimulated platelets (Ki = 25 and 36 microM, respectively). Applaggin and echistatin inhibited the binding of fibrinogen to stimulated platelets in a dose-dependent manner, with an IC50 of 9 and 25 nM, respectively. In concert with inhibition of platelet aggregation, applaggin and echistatin inhibited platelet secretion and synthesis of thromboxane A2 induced by ADP, collagen, and human gamma-thrombin. The monclonal antibody, LJ-CP3, which inhibits the binding of Arg-Gly-Asp containing ligands to platelet GPIIb.IIIa, also inhibited applaggin binding to unstimulated platelets in a competitive manner (Ki = 4.5 microM). Thus, applaggin and echistatin bind to the platelet GPIIb.IIIa complex, and the Arg-Gly-Asp sequence plays a central role in mediating this interaction.  相似文献

Platelet surface glycoproteins IIb-IIIa are considered to function as the binding site for fibrinogen. Fibrinogen binding is essential for platelet aggregation and several amines have been shown to inhibit this binding. The present study compares the binding properties of 125I-fibrinogen and [3H]lysine with platelets activated by the Ca2+ ionophore A23187. Many lines of similarities in the binding properties are apparent; however, several differences were also found. The similarities are listed below and the differences are pointed out in parentheses. Marked enhancement by platelet activation; deficiency of binding by thrombasthenic platelets lacking the glycoproteins IIb-IIIa; saturability (fibrinogen binding approaches saturation at more than 12 microM, within 10 min; lysine binding at more than 100 mM within 1 min); Ca2+-dependence (at 1 mM Ca2+ lysine binding is minute and fibrinogen binding is half-saturated); reversibility; the binding achieved within 10 min is exchangeable; dissociation depends upon time and external ligand concentration; inhibition by the oligoamines His-Lys and Lys4; inhibition by serum from a thrombasthenic patient who developed anti-glycoproteins IIb-IIIa antibodies; specificity; alanine neither binds to activated platelets nor inhibits fibrinogen binding; it thus appears that the lysine which associates with activated platelets is mostly bound onto the surface of the cells rather than being incorporated. Moreover, the major site of lysine binding seems to be the complexed glycoproteins IIb-IIIa.  相似文献

A new method for platelet labeling based on binding of monoclonal antibody to human platelets has been suggested in this study. Monoclonal antibody VM16a against membrane glycoproteins IIb-IIIa was labeled by 125I and then incubated with platelets. About 70% of added antibody was bound when it was used at the concentrations corresponding to the linear part of the concentration curve (0.5 and 1.0 micrograms/ml). Due to high efficiency of binding 125I-VM16a-labeled platelets were used for the measurement of adhesion/aggregation to the substrate in platelet-rich plasma without washing of the free label. Experiments with washed platelets double labeled with 51Cr and 125I-VM 6a showed high correlation between the data obtained with both labels. The method of platelet labeling has been applied for the assessment of drug action on platelet adhesion/aggregation. Measurements were performed in platelet-rich plasma and adhesion/aggregation was stimulated by ADP and analogue of thromboxane A2, U46619. It was shown/that antianginal drug trapidil strongly inhibited and antiatherogenic drug probucol did not affect platelet adhesion/aggregation stimulated by both agonists.  相似文献

The effect of two monoclonal antibodies P2 (LyP 2) or P4 (LyP 4), specific for the platelet membrane glycoprotein IIb/IIIa complex, on binding of 125I-labelled fibrinogen or 125I-labelled fibronectin to thrombin-stimulated platelets was studied. These monoclonal antibodies are directed against different determinants on the IIb-IIIa complex and react only with the complex and not with the individual glycoproteins. Fibrinogen binding to thrombin-stimulated platelets was significantly inhibited by P2 but not by P4. Fibronectin binding to thrombin-stimulated platelets was significantly inhibited by P4 but only poorly by P2. These results indicate the presence of specific regions on the glycoprotein IIb-IIIa complex which act as binding sites for fibrinogen or fibronectin. Other authors [Haverstick et al. (1985) Blood 66, 946-952; Ginsberg et al. (1985) J. Biol. Chem. 260, 4133-4138] have shown that a tetrapeptide, Arg-Gly-Asp-Ser, inhibited the binding of fibrinogen, fibronectin, and von Willebrand factor (vWf) to stimulated platelets and that fibrinogen competes with vWf and fibronectin for binding. These findings, together with previous studies, therefore indicate the presence of specific regions as well as a common region in the binding sites for fibrinogen and fibronectin on the IIb-IIIa complex.  相似文献

The involvement of platelet glycoprotein (GP) IIb-IIIa complex in calcium channel activity on the plasma membrane was investigated using an electrophysiological approach. Plasma membrane vesicles were prepared from thrombin-stimulated platelets and incorporated into planar lipid bilayers. Voltage-independent Ca2+ channel currents with a conductance of about 10 pS (in 53 mM Ba2+) were observed, in membranes derived from thrombin-stimulated, but not unstimulated platelet membranes. These channel activities were markedly reduced by exposure of membranes to EGTA at 37 degrees C. This reduction was specifically related to the dissociation of the GPIIb-IIIa complex since preincubation of the membranes with a monoclonal antibody to the GPIIb-IIIa complex (AP-2) could protect the channel activities from the effect of EGTA. Thrombasthenic platelets, which lack the GPIIb-IIIa complex, showed impaired channel activities characterized by decreased open probability and lowered conductance states. Furthermore, when platelets were stimulated by thrombin in the presence of EGTA, AP2, or the synthetic peptide RGDS, to prevent fibrinogen binding to the GPIIb-IIIa complex, open probabilities of the channel currents in these membrane vesicles were also decreased. These results suggest that the GPIIb-IIIa complex is involved in platelet Ca2+ channel activation and that ligand binding to the complex during platelet activation may modify the activation of Ca2+ channels.  相似文献

Human platelet glycoproteins IIb and IIIa form the receptor for fibrinogen, von Willebrand factor and fibronectin. Isolated human glycoproteins IIb-IIIa are phosphorylated by purified pp60c-src protein tyrosine kinase. Analysis of the phosphorylated proteins on SDS-PAGE showed that under reducing conditions both phosphoproteins change their relative molecular masses from 135 to 120 kDa and from 97 to 105 kDa, which are characteristic properties of glycoproteins IIb-IIIa. Phosphorylated proteins could be immunoprecipitated with an antiserum against glycoproteins IIb-IIIa but not by control serum. Some kinetic properties of the glycoprotein phosphorylations are also investigated. How the glycoprotein IIb-IIIa complex acquires its receptor activity in stimulated platelets is unknown; however, phosphorylation could be an important mechanism.  相似文献

Platelet activation is accompanied by the appearance on the platelet surface of approximately 45,000 receptor sites for fibrinogen. The binding of fibrinogen to these receptors is required for platelet aggregation. Although it is established that the fibrinogen receptor is localized to a heterodimer complex of the membrane glycoproteins, IIb and IIIa, little is known about the changes in this complex during platelet activation that result in the expression of the receptor. In the present studies, we have developed and characterized a murine monoclonal anti-platelet antibody, designated PAC-1, that binds to activated platelets, but not to unstimulated platelets. PAC-1 is a pentameric IgM that binds to agonist-stimulated platelets with an apparent Kd of 5 nM. Binding to platelets is dependent on extracellular Ca2+ (KCa = 0.4 microM) but is not dependent on platelet secretion. Platelets stimulated with ADP or epinephrine bind 10,000-15,000 125I-PAC-1 molecules/platelet while platelets stimulated with thrombin bind 20,000-25,000 molecules/platelet. Several lines of evidence indicate that PAC-1 is specific for the glycoprotein IIb.IIIa complex. First, PAC-1 binds specifically to the IIb.IIIa complex on Western blots. Second, PAC-1 does not bind to thrombasthenic platelets or to platelets preincubated with ethylene glycol bis(beta-aminoethyl ether)-N,N,N',N'-tetraacetic acid at 37 degrees C, both of which lack the intact IIb.IIIa complex. Third, PAC-1 competitively inhibits the binding of 125I-A2A9, and IgG monoclonal antibody that is specific for the IIb.IIIa complex. Fourth, the antibody inhibits fibrinogen-mediated platelet aggregation. These data demonstrate that PAC-1 recognizes an epitope on the IIb.IIIa complex that is located near the platelet fibrinogen receptor. Platelet activation appears to cause a Ca2+-dependent change involving the glycoprotein IIb.IIIa complex that exposes the fibrinogen receptor and, at the same time, the epitope for PAC-1.  相似文献

High and low molecular weight kininogens (HK and LK) are able to bind to platelets to inhibit thrombin binding to and activation of platelets. The heavy chain domain on the kininogens that contains these functions has been determined. Domain 3 (D3) but not domains 1 or 2, completely inhibited 125I-HK binding to platelets (Ki = 24 +/- 7 nM, n = 4). 125I-D3 specifically bound to unstimulated platelets and human umbilical vein endothelial cells. On platelets, it was blocked by unlabeled D3 and HK but not prekallikrein, factor XII, C1s, or C1 inhibitor. Further, one monoclonal antibody (HKH13) directed to kininogens' D3 blocked 125I-HK and 125I-D3 binding to platelets. The binding of 125I-D3 to platelets was fully reversible by addition of 35 molar excess of unlabeled D3. D3 binding to platelets was saturable with an apparent Kd of 39 +/- 8 nM (n = 4) and 1227 +/- 404 binding sites/platelet. D3, like HK and LK, inhibited thrombin-induced platelet activation by preventing thrombin binding to platelets. Another monoclonal antibody (HKH12), directed to D3, which did not block HK binding to platelets, reduced HK's ability to inhibit 125I-alpha-thrombin binding. This result suggests that the region on D3 that inhibits 125I-alpha-thrombin binding to platelets is different from that which directly binds to platelets. These studies indicate that D3 of the kininogens contains both a binding region for platelets and endothelial cells and another region that inhibits thrombin-induced platelet activation.  相似文献

We have investigated the composition and function of membrane microparticles released from platelets exposed to the C5b-9 proteins of the complement system. Gel-filtered human platelets were incubated with sub-lytic amounts of the purified C5b-9 proteins and the distribution of surface antigens was analyzed using monoclonal antibodies and flow cytometry. C5b-9 assembly caused secretory fusion of the alpha-granule membrane with the plasma membrane and the release of membrane vesicles (approximately 0.1-micron diameter) that contained the plasma membrane glycoproteins (GP) GP Ib and GP IIb-IIIa as well as the alpha-granule membrane protein GMP-140. These microparticles were highly enriched in the C9 neoantigen of the C5b-9 complex. The apparent surface density of C5b-9 on the microparticles was approximately 10(3)-fold higher than on the platelet itself, suggesting that the vesicles were selectively shed from the plasma membrane at the site of C5b-9 insertion. C5b-9 induced the expression of an activation-dependent epitope (recognized by monoclonal antibody, PAC1) in GP IIb-IIIa on the platelet surface but not in GP IIb-IIIa on the microparticles. The surface of the microparticles was also highly enriched in alpha-granule-derived coagulation factor V (or Va), accounting for nearly half of all the membrane-bound factor V detected. The number of potential membrane binding sites for factor Va was probed by adding saturating concentrations of factor Va light chain. Under these conditions, the density of factor Va binding sites on the microparticle surface exceeded that on the C5b-9-treated platelet by three to four orders of magnitude. Moreover, the microparticles provided most of the membrane surface for conversion of prothrombin to thrombin by VaXa. These studies demonstrate that the microparticles shed by C5b-9-treated platelets (and not the platelets themselves) provide the principal binding sites for coagulation factor Va and the principal catalytic surface for the prothrombinase complex. Platelet-derived microparticles formed during complement activation in vivo could provide a membrane surface that facilitates the assembly and dissemination of procoagulant enzyme complexes.  相似文献
