Abstract
Platelet activation by thrombin and most other agonists appears to require two second messenger systems that are both initiated by phospholipase C-catalysed cleavage of phosphatidylinositol phosphates leading to: 1. formation of inositol phosphates with a subsequent rise in intracellular calcium from intracellular stores and from outside the cell; 2. formation of diacylglycerol with subsequent activation of protein kinase C. This review examines inositol phosphate metabolism in platelets and its involvement in calcium metabolism.

Abstract
AbstractPlatelet activation is associated with an increase of cytosolic Ca++ levels. The 1,4,5IP3receptors [1,4,5IP3R] are known to mediate Ca++ release from intracellular stores of many cell types. Currently there are at least 3 distinct subtypes of1,4,5IP3R—type I, type II, and type III—with suggestions of distinct roles in Ca++ elevation. Specific receptors for 1,3,4,5IP4 belonging to the GAP1 family have also been described though their involvement with Ca++ regulation is controversial. In this study we report that platelets contain all 3 subtypes of1,4,5IP3R but in different amounts. Type I and type II receptors are predominant. In studies using highly purified platelet plasma (PM) and intracellular membranes (IM) we report a distinct localization of these receptors. The PM fractions were found to contain the type III 1,4,5IP3R and GAP1IP4BP in contrast to IM, which contained type I1,4,5IP3R. The type II receptor exhibited a dual distribution. In studies examining the labeling of surface proteins with biotin in intact platelets only the type III1,4,5IP3R was significantly labeled. Immunogold studies of ultracryosections of human platelets showed significantly more labeling of the PM with the type III receptor antibodies than with type I receptor antibodies. Ca++ flux studies were carried out with the PM to demonstrate in vitro function of inositol phosphate receptors. Ca++ release activities were present with both 1,4,5IP3 and1,3,4,5IP4 (EC50 = 1.3 and 0.8 μmol/L, respectively). Discrimination of the Ca++-releasing activities was demonstrated with cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP)-dependent protein kinase (cAMP-PK) specifically inhibiting 1,4,5IP3 but not1,3,4,5IP4-induced Ca++ flux. In experiments with both PM and intact platelets, the1,4,5IP3Rs but not GAP1IP4BP were found to be substrates of cAMP-PK and cGMP-PK. Thus the Ca++ flux property of1,3,4,5IP4 is insensitive to cAMP-PK. These studies suggest distinct roles for the1,4,5IP3R subtypes in Ca++movements, with the type III receptor and GAP1IP4BPassociated with cation entry in human platelets and the type I receptor involved with Ca++ release from intracellular stores.

Abstract
Platelet activation is central to the pathogenesis of hemostasis and arterial thrombosis. Platelet aggregation plays a major role in acute coronary artery diseases, myocardial infarction, unstable angina, and stroke. ADP is the first known and an important agonist for platelet aggregation. ADP not only causes primary aggregation of platelets but is also responsible for the secondary aggregation induced by ADP and other agonists. ADP also induces platelet shape change, secretion from storage granules, influx and intracellular mobilization of Ca2+, and inhibition of stimulated adenylyl cyclase activity. The ADP-receptor protein mediating ADP-induced platelet responses has neither been purified nor cloned. Therefore, signal transduction mechanisms underlying ADP-induced platelet responses either remain uncertain or less well understood. Recent contributions from chemists, biochemists, cell biologists, pharmacologists, molecular biologists, and clinical investigators have added considerably to and enhanced our knowledge of ADP-induced platelet responses. Although considerable efforts have been directed toward identifying and cloning the ADP-receptor, these have not been completely successful or without controversy. Considerable progress has been made toward understanding the mechanisms of ADP-induced platelet responses but disagreements persist. New drugs that do not mimic ADP have been found to inhibit fairly selectively ADP-induced platelet activation ex vivo. Drugs that mimic ADP and selectively act at the platelet ADP-receptor have been designed, synthesized, and evaluated for their therapeutic efficacy to block selectively ADP-induced platelet responses. This review examines in detail the developments that have taken place to identify the ADP-receptor protein and to better understand mechanisms underlying ADP-induced platelet responses to develop strategies for designing innovative drugs that block ADP-induced platelet responses by acting selectively at the ADP-receptor and/or by selectively interfering with components of ADP-induced platelet activation mechanisms.

Abstract
The activation of a monovalent cation current was studied in rat megakaryocytes using patch clamp techniques combined with photometric measurements of intracellular concentrations of Ca2+ ([Ca2+]i) and Na+. ADP evoked a release of [Ca2+]i and transiently activated a monovalent cation-selective channel, which, at negative potentials and under physiological conditions, would be expected to carry an inward Na+ current. The single channel conductance, estimated by noise analysis from whole cell currents at -50 to -60 mV was 9 picosiemens. Thapsigargin-induced [Ca2+]i increases failed to stimulate the monovalent cation current, suggesting that neither [Ca2+]i nor the depletion of internal Ca2+ stores were activators of this conductance. However, buffering of [Ca2+]i changes with 1,2-bis-(2-aminophenoxy)ethane-N,N,N',N'-tetraacetic acid showed that both activation and inactivation of the current were accelerated by a rise in [Ca2+]i. The monovalent cation conductance was activated by internal perfusion with inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate, both in the presence and in the absence of a rise in [Ca2+]i. Internal perfusion with inositol 2,4,5-trisphosphate, the poorly metabolizable isomer of inositol trisphosphate, similarly activated the monovalent cation current, whereas 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate neither activated a current nor modified the ADP-induced monovalent current. Heparin, added to the pipette, blocked activation of the channel by ADP. The intracellular concentration of Na+, monitored by sodium-binding benzofuran isopthalate, increased by 10-20 mM in response to ADP under pseudophysiological conditions. We conclude the existence of a novel nonselective cation channel in the plasma membrane of rat megakaryocytes, which is activated by IP3 and can lead to increases in cytosolic Na+ after stimulation by ADP.

Abstract
An inward current responsible for hormone regulated Ca2+ entry has been identified in cultured rat hepatocytes using whole cell patch clamp. Addition of 20 nM vasopressin or of 100 microM ATP induced the inward current, which could be observed more clearly after blocking an outward K+ current. This large outward K+ current, which appeared after addition of vasopressin or ATP, could be blocked either by replacing K+ with Cs+ in the external medium and in the pipette solution, or by simply including 0.5 microM apamin in the K(+)-containing external medium. The outward current appears to be carried by a Ca2+ activated K+ channel. In the presence of apamin, hepatocytes pretreated with vasopressin in a Ca(2+)-free media reveal an inward current on addition of external Ca2+ (5 mM). The current could also be elicited by addition of vasopressin when cells are preincubated in the presence of 5 mM external Ca2+. No current is seen on addition of Ca2+ in the absence of vasopressin. Initially, the inward current was ca 200-300 pA at -60 mV, but it declined rapidly over 3 min to ca 20 pA. The current approached zero, as an asymptote at positive potential, and appeared to be somewhat inwardly rectifying. Additions of 5 mM Mn2+ or 5 mM Ba2+ in place of Ca2+ produced little or no current. An inhibitor of ER Ca(2+)-ATPase, thapsigargin, could also trigger the cascade of events leading to plasma membrane conductance of Ca2+. The data suggest that hormone-stimulated Ca2+ entry into hepatocytes is mediated by a Ca(2+)-release activated channel highly specific for Ca2+. This is the first demonstration of such a channel in hepatocytes, though similar ones have been described in mast cells, in vascular endothelial cells and T-lymphocytes.

Abstract
The synthesis of L-chiro-inositol 2,3,5-trisphosphorothioate, a novel analogue of the second messenger D-myo-inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate has been accomplished from the natural product L-quebrachitol. Phosphitylation of (-)-1L-1,4,6-tri-O-benzoyl-chiro-inositol obtained from L-quebrachitol followed by sulfoxidation of the products gave (-)-1L-1,4,6-tri-O-benzoyl-chiro-inositol 2,3,5-tris[di(2-cyanoethyl) phosphorothioate], which was deblocked using sodium in liquid ammonia to give 1L-(-)-chiro-inositol 2,3,5-trisphosphorothioate. 1L-chiro-Inositol 2,3,5-trisphosphorothioate is a partial agonist in the release of intracellular Ca2+ from saponin-permeabilised platelets and is both a key tool for pharmacological dissection of the polyphosphoinositide pathway of cellular signalling and a lead compound for the design of small molecule Ins(1,4,5)P3 receptor antagonists.

Abstract
By virtue of their biological simplicity and widespread availability, platelets frequently have been used as a model system to study signal transduction. Such studies have revealed that changes in intracellular free calcium concentration are central to platelet functioning. The following article reviews current concepts of platelet structure and function, with particular emphasis on the mechanisms involved in platelet Ca2+ signalling.

Abstract
Receptor-operated Ca2+ channels were characterized by their ability to decrease steady-state ATP-dependent Ca2+ accumulation into pig aortic microsomes. The vasoconstrictor agents noradrenaline, angiotensin II and adenosine 5'-[alpha beta-methylene]triphosphate (pp[CH2]pA) all decreased Ca2+ accumulation only when sonicated into vesicles (to allow access to receptor sites) and in the presence of guanosine 5'-[beta gamma-imido]triphosphate to activate transducing G-proteins. The effect of noradrenaline was inhibited by the alpha 2 antagonist yohimbine, but not by the alpha 1 antagonist prazosin. The effect of none of the agonists was reversed by diltiazem. SK&F 96365 (an inhibitor of receptor-mediated Ca2+ influx into intact cells) reversed the effect of noradrenaline, but not that of pp[CH2]pA, which suggests that at least two receptor-operated channels may be present in this preparation.

Abstract
This study reports the localisation of the [32P]IP3 binding site on highly purified membrane fractions prepared using high-voltage free-flow electrophoresis. Binding studies on mixed membranes, carried out at 4 degrees C, revealed a binding site with a Kd = 86 nM and beta max = 5.3 pmol/mg protein. The binding was potently inhibited by heparin. High-voltage free-flow electrophoresis was used to further purify surface and intracellular membranes. The intracellular membranes showed a 5-fold enrichment of binding sites with respect to the parent mixed membranes with the same Kd (80 nM), but the surface membranes showed an absence of binding activity. The results indicate the localisation of the IP3 receptor on highly purified intracellular membranes.

Abstract
Experiments were designed to characterize the hormone sensitive transport of Ca2+ from the external media into rat hepatocytes maintained in culture. In the absence of added vasopressin, hepatocytes were nearly impermeable to Ca2+, whereas a significant and rapid influx of Ca2+ could be detected when external Ca2+ was added to hepatocytes after the addition of 20 nM vasopressin. The transport was measured as the initial rate of increase of free intracellular Ca2+ [( Ca2+]i) after Ca2+ addition to the external media. Most data were obtained from the majority of cells on a coverslip immersed in a spectrophotometric cuvette, but selected data were obtained by measuring Ca2+ changes in single cells. Ca2+ influx measured using a large number of cells was similar to data obtained using single cells. The Vmax of Ca2+ influx was 140 nM/s. Ca2+ transport was competitive with H+ so that the Km was 17.4 mM at pH 6.8, 3.7 mM at pH 7.4 and 1.8 mM at pH 7.8. Ca2+ influx was insensitive to external K+ (1 to 70 mM) and to the presence of 5 nM valinomycin, suggesting that it was independent of the electrical potential gradient across the plasma membrane. Transport also appeared to be insensitive to the activity of protein kinase C, which was varied by addition of the activator, 12-myristate 13-acetate phorbol ester, and by addition of the kinase inhibitor, staurosporine. Stimulation of transport following vasopressin addition exhibited a delay with a t1/2 of approximately 30 s. A vasopressin antagonist blocked the activation of transport, if added prior to vasopressin. However, experiments designed to determine the effect of hormone occupancy per se on transport activity indicated that continued hormone occupancy was not required. When the external medium was nominally Ca2+ free and an antagonist was added 1 min after vasopressin, Ca2+ entry, even 8 min after antagonist addition, was rapid. Conversely, preincubation with vasopressin antagonist in medium containing 0.5 mM Ca2+ dramatically lowered plasma membrane Ca2+ permeability. The ER Ca2+ pool emptied by vasopressin was refilled in the presence of vasopressin antagonist plus 0.5 mM Ca2+, but did not refill when the medium contained no added Ca2+. Under the conditions of these experiments, the Ca2+ levels of the ER hormone-sensitive Ca2+ pool were estimated as well as intracellular concentrations of inositol-1,4,5-trisphosphate. The Ca2+ levels of the endoplasmic reticulum correlated inversely with plasma membrane Ca2+ permeability, whereas cellular concentrations of inositol-1,4,5-trisphosphate did not correlate with Ca2+ permeability.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

Abstract
The effect of human serum albumin (HSA) on the hydrolysis of phosphatidylinositides in human platelets labeled with myo(3H)inositol was studied. Incubation of platelets with HSA (4 gm/dl) for 10 seconds increased IP2, and IP3, by 169% and 217% respectively. 93% of IP3 accumulated within the first 10 seconds. This effect was also shared by bovine serum albumin, although no changes in IP3 levels occurred with ovalbumin. All albumin species used induced 45Ca+2 release from platelets irrespective of its effect on IP3 accumulation. These findings indicate that albumin may function in biological systems by inducing intracellular signaling.

Abstract
ATP-dependent Ca2+ accumulation was measured in pig aortic microsomal fractions containing plasmalemma and endoplasmic reticulum. In vesicles sonicated with histamine, to allow access to internally located receptor sites, guanosine 5'-[beta gamma-imido]triphosphate (p[NH]ppG), added to activate externally located guanine-nucleotide-transducing proteins, caused a concentration-dependent decrease in steady-state Ca2+ accumulation that was reversed by guanosine 5'-[beta-thio]diphosphate. In the presence of p[NH]ppG, sonication with histamine produced a concentration-dependent inhibition of Ca2+ accumulation that could be antagonized by the H1 antagonist mepyramine, but not by the H2 antagonist cimetidine. The inhibition of steady-state Ca2+ accumulation could have resulted from an inhibition of ATP-dependent Ca2+ uptake or a stimulation of Ca2+ release. We observed, however, that p[NH]ppG plus histamine stimulated, rather than inhibited, Ca2(+)-ATPase activity. We concluded that p[NH]ppG and histamine acted together to increase Ca2+ permeability. In support of this, p[NH]ppG accelerated efflux of Ca2+ from passively loaded vesicles sonicated with, but not without, histamine. The effect of p[NH]ppG was unlikely to be due to Ins(1,4,5)P3 (and hence release from endoplasmic-reticulum vesicles), since addition of Ins(1,4,5)P3 to vesicles sonicated with histamine did not alter steady-state Ca2+ accumulation. Our results therefore suggest that histamine and p[NH]ppG increased the permeability of the plasmalemma vesicles and may thus model the process of receptor-mediated Ca2+ entry into intact cells.

Abstract
Using double-barreled, Ca2(+)-sensitive microelectrodes, we have examined the characteristics of the Ca2+ release by inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (Ins(1,4,5)P3) in the various layers of Xenopus laevis eggs in which the organelles had been stratified by centrifugation. Centrifugation of living eggs stratifies the organelles yet retains them in the normal cytoplasmic milieu. The local increase in intracellular free Ca2+ in each layer was directly measured under physiological conditions using theta-tubing, double-barreled, Ca2(+)-sensitive microelectrodes in which one barrel was filled with the Ca2+ sensor and the other was filled with Ins(1,4,5)P3 for microinjection. The two tips of these electrodes were very close to each other (3 microns apart) enabling us to measure the kinetics of both the highly localized intracellular Ca2+ release and its subsequent removal in response to Ins(1,4,5)P3 injection. Upon Ins(1,4,5)P3 injection, the ER-enriched layer exhibited the largest release of Ca2+ in a dosage-dependent manner, whereas the other layers, mitochondria, lipid, and yolk, released 10-fold less Ca2+ in a dosage-independent manner. The removal of released Ca2+ took place within approximately 1 min. The sensitivity to Ins(1,4,5)P3 and the time course of intracellular Ca2+ release in the unstratified (unactivated) egg is nearly identical to that observed in the ER layer of the stratified egg. Our data suggest that the ER is the major organelle of the Ins(1,4,5)P3-sensitive Ca2+ store in the egg of Xenopus laevis.

Abstract
A wide variety of hormones and neurotransmitters activate cellular responses by mobilizing cellular Ca2+. In general, this Ca2+ mobilization response is comprised of a release of Ca2+ from intracellular stores, as well as increased entry of Ca2+ into the cytoplasm from the extracellular space. The mechanism for release of intracellular Ca2+ results from the Ca2(+)-mobilizing actions of a second messenger, D-myo-inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate. Inositol polyphosphates appear also to be involved in the activation of Ca2+ entry, but the mechanism by which this is accomplished is less clear. According to the capacitative model for Ca2+ entry, the depletion of the agonist-regulated intracellular Ca2+ pool by the action of D-myo-inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate is somehow coupled to the activation of Ca2+ entry. The evidence for this model comes from the demonstration, by diverse strategies, that the same Ca2+ entry mechanism normally activated by Ca2(+)-mobilizing agonists can be equally well triggered by depletion of the intracellular Ca2+ pool, even in the absence of receptor activation or elevated cellular levels of inositol polyphosphates.

Abstract
In human platelets thrombin-induced calcium release from intracellular stores, the consequent influx of extracellular calcium, as well as their role in the aggregation and ATP-secretion reactions were examined. In indo-1-loaded platelets intracellular calcium release was studied in the presence of excess EGTA in the incubation medium, while calcium influx was followed after a rapid repletion of external calcium. After thrombin-stimulation both calcium release and calcium influx produced about the same peak levels of cytoplasmic free calcium but in the first case it was only a transient response, while in the latter one a sustained calcium signal was observed. Increased calcium influx could be evoked for several minutes after the addition of thrombin, it was selectively inhibited by Mg2+ (20 mM) and Ni2+ (1 mM) ions, by neomycin and by PCMB, a non-penetrating SH-group reagent. This calcium influx was practically insensitive to organic calcium channel blockers. Thrombin-induced platelet aggregation was only partial in the absence of external calcium, even if excess magnesium was present in the media, while the aggregation response became complete if external calcium was repleted. A significantly reduced aggregation could be seen in calcium-containing media if calcium influx was selectively inhibited. Platelet ATP-secretion under the same conditions did not depend on external calcium or on calcium influx. These data indicate that in thrombin-stimulated platelets the opening of specific plasma membrane calcium channels can be selectively modulated and these channels play a major role in the development of a full-scale aggregation.
