Abstract
In this work we have investigated the ability of epinephrine to trigger the release of intracellular Ca2+ in thrombin-desensitized platelets. Addition of thrombin to platelets in the presence of extracellular EGTA caused a rapid and transient release of Ca2+ from intracellular stores and rendered platelets unresponsive to a second addition of the same agonist. Although epinephrine alone had no effect on intracellular Ca2+ mobilization, its addition to thrombin-desensitized platelets was associated to a rapid and evident secondary release of intracellular Ca2+. This effect of epinephrine was not observed when platelets were desensitized with other agonists able to induce phospholipase C activation, including convulxin, U46619, and ADP. Although the platelet receptor for epinephrine is coupled to the Gi family member Gz, no secondary Ca2+ release was seen in thrombin-desensitized platelets upon stimulation of other Gi-coupled receptors, including the P2Y12 receptor and the CXCR4. Addition of hirudin to thrombin-desensitized platelets prevented epinephrine-promoted secondary release of Ca2+, indicating that thrombin, rather than epinephrine itself, is actually responsible for this event as a consequence of thrombin receptors resensitization. Studies with platelets stimulated with specific PAR1- and PAR4- activating peptides proved that neither one of these thrombin receptors were involved in the secondary epinephrine-assisted Ca2+ release. Moreover, we found that thrombin was still able to induce a reduced, but evident release of Ca2+ from internal stores in PAR1- and PAR4-desensitized platelets, which could be followed by a secondary Ca2+ release upon subsequent addition of epinephrine. Importantly, both the primary and the secondary Ca2+ release induced by thrombin and epinephrine in PAR1- and PAR4-desensitized platelets were abrogated upon cleavage of GPIbalpha by the metalloproteinase mocarhagin. These results demonstrate a direct role of thrombin binding to GPIb-IX-V in the mobilization of Ca2+ from intracellular stores, and reveal that epinephrine can restore this process in desensitized platelets, thus prolonging the effect of thrombin stimulation.

Abstract
Human platelets express protease-activated receptor 1 (PAR1) and PAR4 but limited data indicate for differences in signal transduction. We studied the involvement of PAR1 and PAR4 in the cross-talk between thrombin and epinephrine. The results show that epinephrine acted via alpha(2A)-adrenergic receptors to provoke aggregation, secretion, and Ca(2+) mobilization in aspirin-treated platelets pre-stimulated with subthreshold concentrations of thrombin. Incubating platelets with antibodies against PAR4 or the PAR4-specific inhibitor pepducin P4pal-i1 abolished the aggregation. Furthermore, platelets pre-exposed to the PAR4-activating peptide AYPGKF, but not to the PAR1-activating peptide SFLLRN, were aggregated by epinephrine, whereas both AYPGKF and SFLLRN synergized with epinephrine in the absence of aspirin. The roles of released ATP and ADP were elucidated by using antagonists of the purinergic receptors P2X(1), P2Y(1), and P2Y(12) (i.e. NF449, MRS2159, MRS2179, and cangrelor). Intriguingly, ATP, but not ADP, was required for the epinephrine/thrombin-induced aggregation. In Western blot analysis, a low concentration of AYPGKF, but not SFLLRN, stimulated phosphorylation of Akt on serine 473. Moreover, the phosphatidyl inositide 3-kinase inhibitor LY294002 antagonized the effect of epinephrine combined with thrombin or AYPGKF. Thus, in aspirin-treated platelets, PAR4, but not PAR1, interacts synergistically with alpha(2A)-adrenergic receptors, and the PI3-kinase/Akt pathway is involved in this cross-talk. Furthermore, in PAR4-pretreated platelets, epinephrine caused dense granule secretion, and subsequent signaling from the ATP-gated P2X(1)-receptor and the alpha(2A)-adrenergic receptor induced aggregation. These results suggest a new mechanism that has ATP as a key element and circumvents the action of aspirin on epinephrine-facilitated PAR4-mediated platelet activation.

Abstract
Interleukin 8 (IL-8) is a chemotactic cytokine (chemokine) that plays a key role in the accumulation and activation of neutrophils at inflammatory sites. In this report we demonstrate that homologous chemotactic desensitization occurs upon pretreatment of neutrophils with IL-8 or N-formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine (FMLP) and results in the inhibition of neutrophil chemotaxis upon subsequent challenge with the same ligand. This homologous chemotactic desensitization could be prevented by pretreating the neutrophils with the protein kinase inhibitor staurosporine, indicating that protein kinases may play an essential role. The attenuation of homologous desensitization by staurosporine restored chemotaxis but was not associated with a change in IL-8 receptor expression, affinity or the rate of ligand internalization, indicating that homologous desensitization does not alter ligand-receptor interaction. Using two-dimensional analysis we have shown that IL-8 induced a rapid serine/threonine phosphorylation of a number of neutrophil substrates the most prominent being phosphoprotein 39 (pp39), extracellular signal-related kinase-1, pp55 and pp66. Prior desensitization of neutrophils with IL-8 blocked all subsequent phosphorylation upon rechallenge with IL-8. However, the desensitization was specific for IL-8 since normal phosphorylation of identical substrates was observed in response to FMLP. When neutrophils were pretreated with staurosporine, prior to desensitization, phosphorylation of pp39 was observed upon restimulation with IL-8. Further study revealed that pp55 and pp66 were not phosphorylated in the presence of staurosporine. Thus, homologous desensitization of neutrophils in response to IL-8 does not result from changes in receptor expression, but rather from a staurosporine-sensitive inactivation of subsequent signal transduction. This desensitization is selective since the cells are able to respond to other ligands.

Abstract
Large amounts of Ca2+ (almost 20 nmol/10(8) cells) are released from platelets by exocytosis. This secretory-granule-associated Ca2+ does not contribute to the cytosolic free Ca2+ ([Ca2+]i), which is controlled by the much smaller agonist-sensitive Ca2+ pool, unless high (1 microM), but not low (0.04 microM) concentrations of ionomycin are present. Low concentrations of ionomycin release Ca2+ almost exclusively from the agonist-sensitive stores. In aspirinated platelets incubated in the presence of 0.5 mM EGTA the extensive depletion of the agonist-sensitive stores is obtained by the combined action of low ionomycin and the endomembrane Ca(2+)-ATPase inhibitor thapsigargin (which individually promote only a partial depletion). The subsequent decay of [Ca2+]i is increased by phorbol-myristate acetate, confirming that Ca2+ efflux from platelets is potentiated by the activation of protein kinase C [Pollock, W. K., Sage, S. O. & Rink, T. J. (1987) FEBS Lett. 210, 132-140]. A novel type of control of Ca2+ efflux appears to be exerted by the filling state of the stores. Treatment with low ionomycin or thapsigargin determines the release of a fraction of the stores-associated Ca2+; the subsequent decay of [Ca2+]i is slow. The decay rate of [Ca2+]i accelerates after extensive depletion of the stores following the addition of thapsigargin or ionomycin. If the depletion of the stores is induced by thrombin, added alone or in combination with thapsigargin, the increases of [Ca2+]i are the same and the subsequent decay rates are largely superimposable; however a large fraction of [Ca2+]i is reaccumulated into the stores in the absence, but not in the presence of thapsigargin, indicating that Ca2+ efflux is activated when the stores are empty. Ca2+ efflux can proceed against a concentration gradient. In 45Ca-loaded platelets, the thrombin-promoted 45Ca efflux is potentiated by thapsigargin. The protein-kinase-C-dependent and store-depletion-dependent stimulations of 45Ca efflux are additive. These observations indicate that, in addition to being activated by protein kinase C, Ca2+ efflux from platelets is activated by the depletion of the stores. The two activations appear to be additive.

Abstract
Stimulation of mesangial cells with angiotensin II leads to rapid phosphoinositide hydrolysis and subsequent mobilization of intracellular Ca2+. Previous studies indicated that activation of protein kinase C (PKC) triggers a negative-feedback signal, which limits phosphoinositide turnover. By comparing the relative susceptibility of PKC isoenzymes to phorbol ester-induced down-regulation with the down-regulation of the functional cell response, i.e. feedback inhibition of inositol trisphosphate production, we inferred that PKC-alpha and PKC-delta are candidates for regulating phosphoinositide hydrolysis in mesangial cells. To test this hypothesis further, we examined the effects of inhibitors of PKC, that are reportedly not active on PKC-delta, on angiotensin II-stimulated phosphoinositide degradation and Ca2+ mobilization. Pretreatment of mesangial cells with the PKC inhibitors staurosporine and K252a potently augmented inositol trisphosphate and 1,2-diacylglycerol formation as well as Ca2+ mobilization in response to angiotensin II. These results suggest that PKC-alpha, but not PKC-delta, is the most likely candidate mediating feedback inhibition of angiotensin II-stimulated phosphoinositide turnover in mesangial cells.

Abstract
Pre-incubation of equine platelets in platelet-rich plasma with adenosine 5'-diphosphate (ADP) induced a reduction in aggregation responsiveness to subsequent additions of ADP. The desensitisation was shown to be homologous since the responsiveness to platelet-activating factor, thrombin, collagen, 5-hydroxytryptamine or ionomycin remained unchanged. Adenosine 5'-(beta-thio)-diphosphate (ADP beta S), a non-hydrolysable analogue of ADP, was shown to act as an agonist inducing aggregation by interaction with the ADP receptor. ADP beta S was then used in the desensitisation studies in which residual ADP was degraded by the addition of apyrase. The desensitisation to ADP beta S fully recovered by one hour after pre-treatment with ADP and was not induced by an extracellular mediator. The mechanism of desensitisation is therefore likely to involve the ADP receptor or proximal intermediates in the signal transduction pathway for ADP.

Abstract
Using specific antibodies against the alpha subunit of the inhibitory GTP-binding protein Gi, we analyzed the association of Gi alpha with other cellular components in human platelets. Three tyrosine phosphorylated proteins with molecular mass of 63, 58, and 55 kDa were specifically associated with Gi alpha in resting platelets. Stimulation of platelets with epinephrine, but not with thrombin, induced an increase of the reactivity of the 63- and 55-kDa proteins to anti-phosphotyrosine antibodies on western blotting. By in vitro kinase assay we found that epinephrine induced the association of kinase activity with Gi alpha and that the 63-kDa protein was phosphorylated by this activity. The association of kinase activity with Gi alpha in epinephrine-stimulated platelets paralleled the association of pp60src with Gi alpha, as detected by western blotting analysis using specific anti-pp60src monoclonal antibodies. The interaction of pp60src with Gi alpha may play a role in the mechanism of platelet activation by epinephrine or in the epinephrine-induced potentiation of the action of other platelet agonists.

Abstract
The role of protein kinase C (PKC) in the desensitization of muscarinic receptor-mediated responses in bovine ciliary muscle was examined. Exposure of the bovine ciliary muscle to phorbol esters, used to activate PKC, resulted in antagonism of muscarinic receptor-mediated contraction. On the other hand, staurosporine, a known PKC inhibitor, caused a significant potentiation of the contractile effect induced by carbachol. Staurosporine reduced the desensitization induced by repeated additions of carbachol and completely suppressed that induced by phorbol esters. The results also indicate that desensitization mediated by phorbol esters as well as that mediated by muscarinic receptor agonists is heterologous.

Abstract
Stimulation of platelets by collagen results in increased formation of the polyphosphoinositides, phosphatidylinositol phosphate (PtdInsP) and phosphatidylinositol bisphosphate (PtdInsP2) through stimulation of phosphoinositide kinase activities. We investigated a possible regulatory role of endogenous thromboxane formation and protein kinase C (PKC) activation in the induction of phosphoinositide phosphorylation following collagen stimulation, as well as following stimulation by the thromboxane mimetic, U-46619. Human platelets were prelabeled with [3H]inositol and stimulated with collagen (2 micrograms/mL) or U-46619 (1 microM), in the absence or presence of either the cyclo-oxygenase/lipoxygenase inhibitor, BW755C, or staurosporine, a putative inhibitor or PKC. Collagen stimulation resulted in a time-dependent increase in [3H]inositol-labeled PtdInsP and PtdInsP2 which was completely inhibited in the presence of BW755C. Addition of U-46619 to BW755C-treated, collagen-stimulated platelets restored the increased polyphosphoinositide formation. Stimulation of platelets with U-46619 alone also resulted in increased formation of [3H]PtdInsP and [3H]PtdInsP2, but this was not affected by the presence of BW755C. These results suggest that the collagen-induced activation of phosphoinositide kinases was dependent upon thromboxane formation, but that U-46619-induced phosphoinositide formation was rather independent of further thromboxane production. Pretreatment of platelets with staurosporine, prior to agonist addition, completely blocked the collagen-stimulated rise in radiolabeled PtdInsP and the U-46619-induced PtdInsP and PtdInsP2 generations, suggesting that protein kinase, possibly PKC, may play a role in the activation of phosphoinositide kinases by these agonists.

Abstract
1. Picotamide has been shown to interfere competitively with the thromboxane A2 (TxA2) platelet receptor. In the present study the effect of in vivo administration of picotamide on TxA2 human platelet receptors was investigated in 10 healthy subjects. 2. Picotamide (300 mg x 3 daily) or placebo were administered in a double-blind, cross-over, placebo controlled study, each treatment lasting 1 week with a 2 week interval period. TxA2 receptors were investigated by a direct radioligand binding assay method employing [125I]-PTA-OH as labelled ligand. Platelet studies were performed on the first day of treatment immediately before and 2, 4 and 8 h after the ingestion of the drug. The effects of chronic administration were assessed on the seventh day. 3. Two and 4 h after the administration of picotamide 300 mg orally platelet TxA2 receptors were significantly reduced from 1366 +/- 237 to 957 +/- 221 (P less than 0.05) and 753 +/- 119 receptors/platelet (mean +/- s.d.) (P less than 0.03). After 8 h platelet receptor population was restored (1362 +/- 324, NS). The same pattern was observed after 7 days of treatment. Thus picotamide seems to induce a short lasting down regulation of platelet TxA2 receptors.

Abstract
To investigate a possible regulatory role of protein kinase C (PKC) on collagen-induced phospholipase activity, human platelets were prelabelled with either [3H] arachidonic acid or [14C]stearic acid and stimulated with collagen (2 micrograms/ml) in the presence or absence of the protein kinase inhibitor, staurosporine (1 microM). The collagen-induced release of [3H]arachidonic acid and formation of [14C]stearoyl-labelled lysophospholipids was inhibited by prior incubation with staurosporine, as was the formation of 3H-labelled thromboxane B2, thereby suggesting inhibition of the collagen-induced phospholipase A2 activity. The degradation of phosphatidylinositol (PI) and elevation of phosphatidic acid (PA) in platelets prelabelled with either radiotracer were also completely blocked by staurosporine pretreatment, indicating a suppression of collagen-stimulated phospholipase C activity. Suppressed phospholipase C activity may have been due to diminished thromboxane A2 formation since treatment with the dual cyclo-oxygenase/lipoxygenase inhibitor, BW755C, also resulted in an inhibition of the collagen-stimulated loss of 14C-labelled PI and rise in PA by 75-80%. Our results suggest that protein kinase, possible PKC, may be involved in the regulation of these phospholipases in collagen-stimulated human platelets.

Abstract
1. We have investigated the modification of catecholamine efflux and inositol phosphate formation in cultured adrenal chromaffin cells by tetradecanoyl phorbol acetate (TPA) and inhibitors of diacylglycerol kinase (R 59,022) and diacylglycerol lipase (RG 80267), the two principal pathways of diacylglycerol metabolism. 2. TPA (1 nM to 1 microM) elicited a slow, calcium-dependent, sustained release of noradrenaline, which was partially blocked by the dihydropyridine calcium channel blocker (-)-202,791 and potentiated by the channel enhancer (+)-202,791. 3. R 59,022 enhanced noradrenaline efflux at 30 and 50 microM, while the lipase inhibitor RG 80267 failed to elicit release. 4. Neither R 59,022 nor RG 80267 affected bradykinin- or histamine-stimulated release, but both drugs substantially attenuated nicotine- and high K(+)-stimulated release. 5. Pretreatment for 10 min with TPA (but not the relatively inactive 4-methoxy TPA) or the non-phorbol protein kinase C stimulator mezerein potently inhibited bradykinin- and histamine-stimulated accumulation of total [3H]-inositol phosphate; inhibition of [3H]-inositol phosphate formation was also seen with 24 h TPA treatment. 6. Neither R 59,022 nor RG 80267, separately or together, affected bradykinin-stimulated [3H]-inositol phosphate formation. 7. Thus while the mechanism exists for inhibition of formation of inositol phosphates by stimulation of protein kinase C, these studies failed to show that this mechanism is activated by agonists acting on phospholipase C linked receptors.

Abstract
Platelet function was evaluated in six specific-pathogen-free cats prior to and following intraperitoneal inoculation with feline infectious peritonitis virus (FIPV). By 4 days post-inoculation, platelet samples from five of six cats responded with irreversible platelet aggregation to threshold concentrations of adenosine diphosphate (ADP). This was accompanied by enhanced platelet 14C-serotonin release (greater than 10%) in two cats. Compared to one of six baseline samples, five of five post-inoculation samples exhibited microaggregate formation in response to 20 microM epinephrine. Enhanced platelet 14C-serotonin release did not accompany these responses. Enhanced platelet responses to ADP and epinephrine were also observed on day 11 post-inoculation and day 16 (when one cat died) or 21 (the end of the study). Platelet 14C-serotonin release in response to 20 microM epinephrine increased markedly in three of five cats on day 21. Enhanced collagen-induced platelet responses were not demonstrated. Although the mechanism for the enhanced platelet responses observed on day 4 was unknown, a direct effect on the virus on platelets, mononuclear inflammatory cells, and endothelial cells must be considered.
