Authi KS, Khan S, Gibbins JM, Brain SD. Evidence that inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate 3-kinase and inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate are negative regulators of platelet function. Res Pract Thromb Haemost 2024; 8:102326. [PMID: 38404940 PMCID: PMC10885593 DOI: 10.1016/j.rpth.2024.102326] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/01/2023] [Revised: 12/21/2023] [Accepted: 01/03/2024] [Indexed: 02/27/2024] Open
Abstract
Background Inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate (IP4) is formed from inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) by IP3 3-kinase (ITPK) in most cells. Its function is unknown but has been suggested to be involved in Ca2+ entry, IP3 regulation, and phosphoinositide 3-kinase antagonism. Objectives To better elucidate a function for IP4, we tested a specific inhibitor of ITPK (GNF362) on platelets, the effects of IP4 directly in permeabilized platelets and its effect on phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate (PIP3) binding to pleckstrin-homology (PH) domain-containing proteins in platelets. Methods Human platelets were utilized in whole blood for thrombus formation, in platelet-rich plasma and washed suspensions for aggregation, and for Ca2+ studies, or resuspended in high K+ and low Na+ buffers for permeabilization experiments. Phosphorylation of AKT-Ser473 and Rap1-GTP formation were measured by Western blotting and PIP3 binding using PIP3 beads. Results GNF362-enhanced platelet aggregation stimulated by low concentrations of ADP, collagen, thrombin, U46619, and thrombus formation in collagen-coated capillaries. GNF362 induced a transient elevation of Ca2+ concentration, elevated basal levels of IP3, and enhanced the peak height of Ca2+ elevated by agonists. In permeabilized platelets, IP4 inhibited GTPγS induced formation of AKT-Ser473 phosphorylation and platelet aggregation. IP4 reduced GTPγS-stimulated Rap1-GTP levels and potently reduced extraction of RASA3 and BTK by PIP3 beads. Conclusion ITPK and IP4 are negative regulators of platelet function. IP4 regulation of PH domain-containing proteins may represent a pathway by which platelet activation may be controlled during thrombosis.

Abstract
In patients with hypertension, the triad represented by endothelial dysfunction, platelet hyperactivity, and altered fibrinolytic function disturbs the equilibrium between hemostasis and fibrinolysis and translates into a hypercoagulable state, which underlies the risk of thrombotic complications. This article reviews the scientific evidence regarding some biological effects of antihypertensive drugs, which can protect patients from the adverse consequences of hypertensive disease, improving endothelial function, enhancing antioxidant activity, and restoring equilibrium between hemostatic and fibrinolytic factors. These protective effects appear not to be mediated through blood pressure reduction and are not shared by all molecules of the same pharmacological class.

Abstract
Professor GVR Born, Gus to his friends, was one of the great pioneers of platelet research. My early memories of him have enabled me to look back at his early years in Oxford and London. A brilliant and generous man with always the time to discuss and advise he was instrumental in deciphering the principle stages of the aggregation of blood platelets by ADP, a path aided by his development and use of the platelet aggregometer. He applied his knowledge to the real time analysis of platelet and leukocyte involvement in thrombus formation in animal models and to the development of atherosclerosis and thrombosis and their pharmacological inhibition. What follows is a personal account of the major steps in this early work and of the actors involved.

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
The pathway and kinetics of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) metabolism were measured in Xenopus laevis oocytes and cytoplasmic extracts of oocytes. Degradation of microinjected IP3 in intact oocytes was similar to that in the extracts containing comparable concentrations of IP3 ([IP3]). The rate and route of metabolism of IP3 depended on the [IP3] and the intracellular free Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]). At low [IP3] (100 nM) and high [Ca2+] (>/=1 microM), IP3 was metabolized predominantly by inositol 1,4, 5-trisphosphate 3-kinase (3-kinase) with a half-life of 60 s. As the [IP3] was increased, inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatase (5-phosphatase) degraded progressively more IP3. At a [IP3] of 8 microM or greater, the dephosphorylation of IP3 was the dominant mode of IP3 removal irrespective of the [Ca2+]. At low [IP3] and low [Ca2+] (both </=400 nM), the activities of the 5-phosphatase and 3-kinase were comparable. The calculated range of action of IP3 in the oocyte was approximately 300 micron suggesting that IP3 acts as a global messenger in oocytes. In contrast to IP3, inositol 1,3,4, 5-tetrakisphosphate (IP4) was metabolized very slowly. The half-life of IP4 (100 nM) was 30 min and independent of the [Ca2+]. IP4 may act to sustain Ca2+ signals initiated by IP3. The half-life of both IP3 and IP4 in Xenopus oocytes was an order of magnitude or greater than that in small mammalian cells.

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
1. In rat parotid acini, vanadate affects amylase secretion and intracellular messengers according to its concentration. 2. Low concentrations (in the micromolar range) concentrations of vanadate stimulate amylase secretion and potentiate the secretory effect of carbamylcholine, but inhibit the amylase release in response to isoproterenol. 3. Vanadate increases inositol phosphates (mono-, bis- and trisphosphate) and potentiate the stimulatory effect of carbachol on inositol bis- and trisphosphate. 4. Vanadate also decreases the intracellular cyclic AMP concentration and the increase in response to isoproterenol or forskolin. 5. High concentrations (in the millimolar range) of vanadate inhibit the increase in inositol phosphate induced by carbachol. 6. It is concluded that low concentrations of vanadate activate regulatory proteins coupled to phospholipase C and adenylate cyclase while high concentrations of vanadate inhibit inositol bisphosphatase.

Abstract
The generation of inositol phosphates upon muscarinic-receptor activation was studied in [3H]inositol-loaded exocrine cells from the nasal salt glands of the duck Anas platyrhynchos, and the metabolism of different inositol phosphates in vitro was studied in tissue homogenates, with particular reference to the possible interaction of changes in intracellular [Ca2+] ([Ca2+]i) with the metabolic processes. In intact cells, there was a rapid (within 15 s) generation of Ins(1,4,5)P3 and Ins(1,3,4,5)P4, followed by an accumulation of their breakdown products, Ins(1,3,4)P3 and inositol bis- and monophosphates. Ca(2+)-sensitivity of the Ins(1,4,5)P3 3-kinase was demonstrated in tissue homogenates, with the rate of phosphorylation increasing 2-fold at free Ca2+ concentrations greater than 1 microM. However, addition of calmodulin or the presence of the calmodulin inhibitor W-7 (up to 100 microM) had no effect. 3-Kinase activity increased proportionally with the initial Ins(1,4,5)P3 concentration up to 1 microM, but a 10-fold higher substrate concentration produced only a doubling in the phosphorylation rate. Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 was dephosphorylated to Ins(1,3,4)P3, which accumulated in the homogenate assays as well as in intact cells. Depending on its concentration, Ins(1,3,4)P3 was phosphorylated [in part to Ins(1,3,4,6)P4] or dephosphorylated. To investigate the Ca(2+)-sensitivity of the 3-kinase in intact cells, excess quin2 was used to buffer the receptor-mediated transient changes in [Ca2+]i in [3H]inositol-loaded cells. These experiments revealed that increasing [Ca2+]i from less than 100 to approx. 400 nM (i.e. within the physiological range) has no effect on the partitioning of Ins(1,4,5)P3 metabolism (phosphorylation versus dephosphorylation) and on the accumulation of Ins(1,4,5)P3 and Ins(1,3,4,5)P4. This indicates that activation of the 3-kinase by physiologically relevant Ca2+ concentrations may not play a major role in the generation of Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 signals upon receptor activation in these cells. The latter are mainly achieved by the receptor-mediated increase in Ins(1,4,5)P3 in the cell and its phosphorylation by the 3-kinase in a substrate-concentration-dependent manner.

Abstract
Cotton bract tannin is a potent stimulus for platelet aggregation and secretion. Tannin has been shown to stimulate the phosphorylation of two 19-kD and 47-kD cytosolic proteins in platelets, but earlier steps in signal transducing mechanisms of platelet activation are unknown. In this study, measurements of 32P-labeled phospholipids, 14C-labeled arachidonic acid, and levels of intracellular free calcium (Ca2+) were performed before and after the addition of thrombin (1 U/ml) or various concentrations of tannin to human platelets. The results showed that tannin induced a dose-dependent synthesis of phosphatidic acid, an early and transient hydrolysis of phosphatidylinositol monophosphate and bisphosphate, a transient synthesis of diacylglycerol, and a release of arachidonic acid metabolites. The kinetics of phosphatidic acid, diacylglycerol, and arachidonic acid metabolite synthesis were similar after platelet stimulation by tannin (75 micrograms/ml) or thrombin. Tannin also induced a reversible rise of intracellular Ca2+ due to a mobilization of the internal stores and an influx of extracellular Ca2+. These results suggest that cotton bract tannin, as thrombin, activates human platelets by phospholipase C and A2 activations, release of diacylglycerol, and mobilization of intracellular free Ca2+.

Abstract
Inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (InsP3) 3-kinase catalyses the ATP-dependent phosphorylation of InsP3 to inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate (InsP4). InsP3 3-kinase was purified from rat brain by Blue-Sepharose, phosphocellulose and calmodulin (CaM)-Sepharose affinity chromatography. The purified enzyme was stimulated by Ca2+/CaM by 3-6-fold as compared with the activity measured in the presence of EGTA. Rat brain InsP3 3-kinase activity was associated with two silver-stained bands of about equal activity which migrated with an apparent Mr of 50,000 on SDS/polyacrylamide gels. InsP3 3-kinase activity from rat brain could be immunoprecipitated by an antiserum against the SDS/PAGE-purified 50,000-Mr protein doublet. InsP3 kinase activity from bovine brain and the InsP3 5-phosphatase activity from rat brain were not immunoprecipitated. On Western blot, the human brain crude InsP3 3-kinase reacted specifically, but less strongly than the rat brain enzyme, with the antiserum.

Abstract
The two inositol phosphate-binding proteins, the Ins(1,4,5)P3 (InsP3) and Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 (InsP4) receptors, and the two particulate InsP3-metabolizing enzymes, InsP3 5-phosphatase and InsP3 3-kinase, were solubilized with detergent from rat cerebellar membranes. These four activities are shown to be distinct molecular species by separation using a variety of protein chromatographic steps. The pharmacology of the partially purified InsP4-binding site indicates that the binding has a high affinity and selectivity for InsP4 over InsP3. These results suggest the existence of a distinct specific InsP4-binding protein which may represent the receptor for this putative second messenger.

Abstract
Coupling of CNS receptors to phosphoinositide turnover has previously been found to vary with both age and brain region. To determine whether the metabolism of the second messenger inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate also displays such variations, activities of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate 5'-phosphatase and 3'-kinase were measured in developing rat cerebral cortex and adult rat brain regions. The 5'-phosphatase activity was relatively high at birth (approximately 50% of adult values) and increased to adult levels by 2 weeks postnatal. In contrast, the 3'-kinase activity was low at birth and reached approximately 50% of adult levels by 2 weeks postnatal. In the adult rat, activities of the 3'-kinase were comparable in the cerebral cortex, hippocampus, and cerebellum, whereas much lower activities were found in hypothalamus and pons/medulla. The 5'-phosphatase activities were similar in cerebral cortex, hippocampus, hypothalamus, and pons/medulla, whereas 5- to 10-fold higher activity was present in the cerebellum. The cerebellum is estimated to contain 50-60% of the total inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate 5'-phosphatase activity present in whole adult rat brain. The localization of the enriched 5'-phosphatase activity within the cerebellum was examined. Application of a histochemical lead-trapping technique for phosphatase indicated a concentration of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate 5'-phosphatase activity in the cerebellar molecular layer. Further support for this conclusion was obtained from studies of Purkinje cell-deficient mutant mice, in which a marked decrement of cerebellar 5'-phosphatase was observed. These results suggest that the metabolic fate of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate depends on both brain region and stage of development.

Abstract
1. The Ca2+/calmodulin (CaM) independent activity of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (InsP3) 3-kinase in macrophages could be separated from the dependent activity by serial column chromatography, gel filtration, Orange A and DEAE-5PW. 2. An InsP3 analog which has an aminobenzoyl group on the 2nd carbon of the inositol ring inhibited the conversion of [3H]InsP3 to [3H]InsP4 (inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate) in a dose-dependent manner. The concentration required for half-maximal inhibition (IC50) with the Ca2+/CaM independent enzyme activity was also dependent on the free Ca2+ concentration, as with the dependent activity. 3. These results suggest that a conformational change in the enzyme occurs in response to a change in free Ca2+ concentration, and thus the potency to recognize the InsP3 analog would change, even when the Ca2+/CaM independent enzyme activity was used.
