Özet
Collagen activates platelets by transducing signals through glycoprotein VI (GPVI). It is not clear whether collagen can directly activate fibrinogen receptors on the adherent platelets without a role for positive feedback agonists. We Investigated the contribution of secondary G protein signaling to the mechanism of GPVI-stimulated platelet aggregation using the GPVI-selective agonists, convulxin and collagen-related peptide (CRP) as well as collagen. Adenosine diphosphate (ADP) scavengers or ADP receptor antagonists shifted the concentration-response curve slightly to the right at low concentrations of convulxin, whereas platelet aggregation at higher concentrations of convulxin was unaffected by these agents. ADP receptor antagonists shifted the concentration-response curve of collagen- or CIRP-Induced platelet aggregation to the right at all the concentrations. Protein kinase C inhibitor, Ro 31-8220, or a calcium chelator 5,5'-dimethyl-BAPTA shifted the concentration-response curve of convulxin-induced platelet aggregation to the right. In addition, pretreatment with both Ro 31-8220 and dimethyl-BAPTA resulted in total inhibition of convulxin-mediated aggregation. Blockade of either the calcium- or protein kinase C-regulated pathway leads to Inhibition of fibrinogen receptor activation on platelets adherent to collagen, but inhibition of both pathways leads to abolished fibrinogen receptor activation. We conclude that collagen-Induced activation of fibrinogen receptor on adherent platelets through GPVI signaling occurs without any significant role for secreted ADP or thromboxane A(2). Furthermore, protein kinase C- and calcium-regulated pathways Independently contribute to GPVI-mediated platelet aggregation. (C) 2002 by The American Society of Hematology.
