Abstract
Reviewed are new concepts and models of Ca(2+) signalling originating from work with various animal cells, as well as the applicability of these models to the signalling systems used by blood platelets. The following processes and mechanisms are discussed: Ca(2+) oscillations and waves; Ca(2+) -induced Ca(2+) release; involvement of InsP(3)-receptors and quanta1 release of Ca(2+); different pathways of phospholipase C activation; heterogeneity in the intracellular Ca(2+) stores; store-and receptor-regulated Ca(2+) entry. Additionally, some typical aspects of Ca(2+) signalling in platelets are reviewed: involvement of protein serine/threonine and tyrosine kinases in the regulation of signal transduction; possible functions of platelet glycoproteins; and the importance of Ca(2+) for the exocytotic and procoagulant responses.

Abstract
Extracellular adenine nucleotides interact with P2 purinergic receptors to regulate a broad range of physiological processes among which platelet aggregation P2 purinoceptors were divided into two main groups: the G-protein coupled receptor or 'metabotropic' superfamily termed P2Y and the ligand-gated ion channel or 'ionotropic receptor' superfamily termed P2X. Platelet aggregation by ADP plays a key role in the development and extension of arterial thrombosis. At present, despite a great deal of investigation aimed at assessing the central role of ADP in haemostasis, the platelet ADP receptor or so-called P(2T) purinoceptor remains basically unknown. Attempts to achieve its cloning have to date been unsuccessful and in addition more than one purinoceptor would appear to be involved in the multiple effects of ADP on platelets. The aim of this review is to try to begin to find an initial answer to the questions of how do platelets respond to ADP and what receptors are involved in these processes. A model of at least two receptors, one responsible for rapid Ca(2+) entry which could be a P(2×1) receptor and one responsible for aggregation and inhibition of adenylyl cyclase which could be a P(2Y1) receptor is proposed.

Abstract
Unraveling the complex signaling processes regulating platelet adhesion has been a longstanding goal for those in the field of platelet research. Advances in high-speed live cell imaging techniques, taking advantage of developments in the area of fluorescent probe design hold considerable promise for the investigation of the dynamic signaling processes governing platelet activation and function, both physiologically and pathologically. This review broadly covers the application of existing imaging techniques to the investigation of platelet function and examines new developments in the area of live cell imaging that may have future applications in the field.

Abstract
We have examined platelet functional responses and characterized a novel signaling defect in the platelets of a patient suffering from a chronic bleeding disorder. Platelet aggregation responses stimulated by weak agonists such as adenosine diphosphate (ADP) and adrenaline were severely impaired. In comparison, both aggregation and dense granule secretion were normal following activation with high doses of collagen, thrombin, or phorbol-12 myristate-13 acetate (PMA). ADP, thrombin, or thromboxane A2 (TxA2) signaling through their respective Gq-coupled receptors was normal as assessed by measuring either mobilization of intracellular calcium, diacylglycerol (DAG) generation, or pleckstrin phosphorylation. In comparison, Gi-mediated signaling induced by either thrombin, ADP, or adrenaline, examined by suppression of forskolin-stimulated rise in cyclic AMP (cAMP) was impaired, indicating dysfunctional Galphai signaling. Immunoblot analysis of platelet membranes with specific antiserum against different Galpha subunits indicated normal levels of Galphai2,Galphai3,Galphaz, and Galphaq in patient platelets. However, the Galphai1level was reduced to 25% of that found in normal platelets. Analysis of platelet cDNA and gDNA revealed no abnormality in either the Galphai1 or Galphai2 gene sequences. Our studies implicate the minor expressed Galphai subtype Galphai1 as having an important role in regulating signaling pathways associated with the activation of alphaIIbbeta3 and subsequent platelet aggregation by weak agonists.

Abstract
Platelet activation is normally induced by primary agonists such as adenosine diphosphate (ADP), thrombin, and collagen, whereas other agonists, such as epinephrine, can play important accessory roles. It is now reported that the macrophage-derived chemokine (MDC), thymus activation-regulated chemokine (TARC), and stromal cell-derived factor one (SDF-1) are highly effective activators of platelet function under a variety of conditions, stimulating platelet shape change, aggregation, and adhesion to collagen or fibrinogen. Chemokine-mediated platelet activation was rapid and maximal (less than 5 seconds) under arterial flow conditions and depended strongly on the presence of low levels of primary agonists such as ADP or thrombin. Concentrations of ADP (0.05-0.25 microM) or thrombin (0.005-0.02 U/mL) that induced minimal aggregation caused major aggregation acting in combination with the chemokines. The ability of apyrase to block chemokine-dependent aggregation or adhesion was consistent with an important role for ADP. Chemokine-stimulated aggregation was also insensitive to indomethacin, suggesting that the activation of cyclo-oxygenase is not involved. TARC, MDC, and SDF-1 increased intracellular calcium concentrations [Ca(2+)](i) when combined with low levels of ADP. The MDC and TARC receptor CCR4 was expressed on platelets, and an anti-CCR4 antibody blocked aggregation induced by TARC or MDC. Treatment of platelets with SDF-1 and MDC rapidly exposed P-selectin (CD62P) on the cell surface but did not induce the secretion of serotonin. These findings suggest that the chemokines MDC, TARC, and SDF-1, which may be produced during inflammatory responses, coupled with low levels of ADP or thrombin, can serve as strong stimuli for activating platelet function.

Abstract
The kinetics of adhesion of platelets to fibrinogen (Fg) immobilized on polystyrene latex beads (Fg-beads) was determined in suspensions undergoing Couette flow at well-defined homogeneous shear rates. The efficiency of platelet adhesion to Fg-beads was compared for ADP-activated versus "resting" platelets. The effects of the shear rate (100-2000 s(-1)), Fg density on the beads (24-2882 Fg/microm(2)), the concentration of ADP used to activate the platelets, and the presence of soluble fibrinogen were assessed. "Resting" platelets did not specifically adhere to Fg-beads at levels detectable with our methodology. The apparent efficiency of platelet adhesion to Fg-beads readily correlated with the proportion of platelets "quantally" activated by doses of ADP, i.e., only ADP-activated platelets appeared to adhere to Fg-beads, with a maximal adhesion efficiency of 6-10% at shear rates of 100-300 s(-1), decreasing with increasing shear rates up to 2000 s(-1). The adhesion efficiency was found to decrease by only threefold when decreasing the density of Fg at the surface of the beads by 100-fold, with only moderate decreases in the presence of physiologic concentrations of soluble Fg. These adhesive interactions were also compared using activated GPIIbIIIa-coated beads. Our studies provide novel model particles for studying platelet adhesion relevant to hemostasis and thrombosis, and show how the state of activation of the platelet and the local flow conditions regulate Fg-dependent adhesion.

Abstract
Our aim was to study whether ultraviolet radiation produced any alterations in the subsequent signaling response of V79 fibroblasts to mitogenic stimulus. In ultraviolet C (UVC)-irradiated V79 fibroblasts, increase in cytosolic calcium in response to thrombin was nearly abolished in the presence of 3 mM external Ca(2+). UVC-treated V79 cells showed a greatly enhanced permeability to Ca(2+) which was reversed by pretreatment with genistein, a tyrosine kinase inhibitor. Genistein also alleviated the inhibition of thrombin response caused by UVC. In UVC-treated cells, significant activation of protein kinase C (PKC) occurred only on exposure to 3 mM external calcium and PKC inhibitors (H-7 or staurosporine) reversed UVC-induced adverse effects on the thrombin response. Therefore, it is likely that protein tyrosine phosphorylation by UVC may play a role in the subsequent inhibition of thrombin response in V79 cells through increased calcium influx and activation of PKC.

Abstract
V79 fibroblasts were treated with ultraviolet (UV) C radiation alone as well as in conjunction with chronic oxidative stress. The effects of these treatments on calcium signaling were observed at 30 min post-irradiation. In the absence of extracellular calcium, thrombin released calcium from internal stores of UVC-irradiated V79 fibroblasts even after exposure to neomycin. In neomycin-treated control and chronic oxidative stress cells, no calcium release by thrombin was observed after chelation of external calcium. Calcium release by thrombin from internal stores of UV-irradiated and neomycin-treated cells was completely abolished by pretreatment with N-acetyl cysteine and dexamethasone. Cellular total soluble thiol content which is a good indicator of cellular reduced glutathione (GSH) level was significantly elevated 30 min after ultraviolet radiation, indicating an adaptive response after oxidative stress. Chronic oxidative stress alone resulted in a much smaller increase in GSH but chronic oxidative stress in conjunction with UVC produced a very prominent elevation in GSH levels. Our data suggest that thrombin can cause calcium release from internal stores of ultraviolet-irradiated fibroblasts which is independent of phosphatidylinositol bisphosphate hydrolysis and is directly related to the level of oxidative stress. Involvement of phospholipase A2 and a role for its products as possible mediators of calcium release from intracellular stores, is strongly indicated.

Abstract
Recently we showed that the P2Y1 receptor coupled to calcium mobilization is necessary to initiate ADP-induced human platelet aggregation. Since the thienopyridine compound clopidogrel specifically inhibits ADP-induced platelet aggregation, it was of interest to determine whether the P2Y1 receptor was the target of this drug. Therefore we studied the effects of clopidogrel and of the two specific P2Y1 antagonists A2P5P and A3P5P on ADP-induced platelet events in rats. Although clopidogrel treatment (50 mg/kg) greatly reduced platelet aggregation in response to ADP as compared to untreated platelets, some residual aggregation was still detectable. In contrast, A2P5P and A3P5P totally abolished ADP-induced shape change and aggregation in platelets from both control and clopidogrel-treated rats. A2P5P and A3P5P (100 microM) totally inhibited the [Ca2+]i rise induced by ADP (0.1 microM) in control and clopidogrel-treated platelets, whereas clopidogrel treatment had no effect. Conversely, the inhibition of adenylyl cyclase induced by ADP (5 microM) was completely blocked by clopidogrel but not modified by A2P5P or A3P5P (100 microM). A3P5P (1 mM) reduced the number of [33P]2MeSADP binding sites on control rat platelets from 907 +/- 50 to 611 +/- 25 per platelet. After clopidogrel treatment, binding of [33P]2MeSADP decreased to 505 +/- 68 sites per platelet and further decreased to 55 +/- 12 sites in the presence of A3P5P (1 mM). In summary, these results demonstrate that the platelet P2Y1 receptor responsible for the initiation of aggregation in response to ADP is not the target of clopidogrel. Platelets may express another, as yet unidentified, P2Y receptor, specifically coupled to the inhibition of adenylyl cyclase and necessary to induce full platelet aggregation, which could be the target of this drug.

Abstract
Although adenosine diphosphate (ADP) is a well-known stimulus of platelet aggregation, it is not the generally accepted view that ADP stimulates phosphatidylinositolbisphosphate (PtdIns(4,5)P2) hydrolysis. Using a very sensitive competitive receptor binding assay for inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (Ins(1,4,5)P3), we have detected Ins(1,4,5)P3 production at early ( < 10 s) time points after stimulation of human platelets by the weak agonists ADP, adrenaline and serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, 5-HT). When adrenaline or 5-HT was combined with ADP in the presence of aspirin, there was a significant potentiation of ADP-induced platelet aggregation, but there was no potentiation of Ins(1,4,5)P3 generation. Also, the increases in intracellular calcium (Ca2+) concentrations stimulated by ADP were not potentiated by adrenaline in the presence of aspirin. Therefore, the synergism between the purinergic and adrenergic pathways of platelet activation occurs downstream from PtdIns(4,5)P2 hydrolysis and intracellular Ca2+ mobilization, although prior to platelet aggregation.

Abstract
Human platelet CD38 is a multifunctional ectoenzyme catalysing the synthesis and hydrolysis of cADP-ribose (cADPR), a recently identified calcium-mobilizing agent that acts independently of D-myo-inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate and is known to be expressed by human platelets. The present work shows that ADP-ribosyl cyclase activity is exclusively a membrane activity, of which the major part is located in plasma membranes and a small part in internal membranes. In broken cells, cyclase activity was insensitive to the presence of calcium and was not modulated by agonists such as thrombin or ADP, whereas in intact cells thrombin increased cADPR formation by 30%, an effect due to fusion of granules with the plasma membrane. In order to assess the role of cADPR as a calcium-mobilizing agent, vesicles were prepared from internal membranes and loaded with 45CaCl2. These vesicles were efficiently discharged by IP3 in a dose-dependent manner, but were not responsive to cADPR or ryanodine in the presence or absence of calmodulin. Thus cADPR is unlikely to play a role in intracellular calcium release in human blood platelets.

Abstract
Rapid activation of blood platelets is required for effective haemostasis, with shape change, aggregation, secretion of granule contents and cell adhesion occurring in seconds or even milliseconds. Signal-transduction events, evidenced by changes in protein phosphorylation and calcium levels, also take place in this time domain. We have now shown that platelet adhesion to collagen via the alpha 2 beta 1 integrin under arterial shear forces initiated the rapid dephosphorylation of a 67 kDa protein "band" which contained the 70 kDa constitutive heat-shock protein, hsc70. Immunoprecipitation with hsc70 antibodies revealed a large phosphoprotein complex in resting platelets and adhesion caused dissociation of the complex along with dephosphorylation of hsc70. The complex also contained the hsp90 heat-shock protein, protein phosphatase IC, alpha, delta and M subunits, and some 7-8 unidentified phosphoproteins. The data suggest that heat-shock proteins and protein phosphatases are actively involved in integrin-mediated platelet adhesion.

Abstract
Acting through cell surface receptors, ADP activates platelets resulting in shape change, aggregation, thromboxane A2 production, and release of granule contents. ADP also causes a number of intracellular events including inhibition of adenylyl cyclase, mobilization of calcium from intracellular stores, and rapid calcium influx in platelets. However, the receptors that transduce these events remain unidentified and their molecular mechanisms of action have not been elucidated. The receptor responsible for the actions of ADP on platelets has been designated the P2T receptor. In this study we have used ARL 66096, a potent antagonist of ADP-induced platelet aggregation, and a P2X ionotropic receptor agonist, alpha,beta-methylene adenosine 5'-triphosphate, to distinguish the ADP-induced intracellular events. ARL 66096 blocked ADP-induced inhibition of adenylyl cyclase, but did not affect ADP-mediated intracellular calcium increases or shape change. Both ADP and 2-methylthio-ADP caused a 3-fold increase in the level of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate over control levels which peaked in a similar fashion to the Ca2+ transient. The increase in inositol 1,3,4-trisphosphate was of similar magnitude to that of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate. alpha,beta-Methylene adenosine 5'-triphosphate did not cause an increase in either of the inositol trisphosphates. These results clearly demonstrate the presence of two distinct platelet ADP receptors in addition to the P2X receptor: one coupled to adenylyl cyclase and the other coupled to mobilization of calcium from intracellular stores through inositol trisphosphates.

Abstract
Inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (Ins-1,4,5-P3) is responsible for Ca2+ mobilization in response to external stimulation in many cell types. The latter phenomenon often occurs as repetitive Ca2+ spikes. In this study, the effect of the two Ins-1,4,5-P3 metabolizing enzymes (Ins-1,4,5-P3 3-kinase and 5-phosphatase) on the temporal pattern of Ca2+ oscillations has been investigated. On the basis of the well-documented Ins-1,4,5-P3 3-kinase stimulation by the Ca2+/calmodulin complex and of the experimentally-determined kinetic characteristics of these enzymes, we predict that 5-phosphatase primarily controls the levels of Ins-1,4,5-P3 and, thereby, the occurrence and frequency of Ca2+ oscillations. Consequently, the model reproduces the experimental observation performed in Chinese hamster ovary cells that 5-phosphatase overexpression has a much more pronounced effect on the pattern of Ca2+ oscillations than 3-kinase overexpression. We also investigated, in more detail, under which conditions a similar effect could be observed in other cell types expressing various Ins-1,4,5-P3 3-kinase activities.

Abstract
The tasting of bitter compounds may have evolved as a protective mechanism against ingestion of potentially harmful substances. We have identified second messengers involved in bitter taste and show here for the first time that they are rapid and transient. Using a quench-flow system, we have studied bitter taste signal transduction in a pair of mouse strains that differ in their ability to taste the bitter stimulus sucrose octaacetate (SOA); however, both strains taste the bitter agent denatonium. In both strains of mice, denatonium (10 mM) induced a transient and rapid increase in levels of the second messenger inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) with a maximal production near 75-100 ms after stimulation. In contrast, SOA (100 microM) brought about a similar increase in IP3 only in SOA-taster mice. The response to SOA was potentiated in the presence of GTP (1 microM). The GTP-enhanced SOA-response supports a G protein-mediated response for this bitter compound. The rapid kinetics, transient nature, and specificity of the bitter taste stimulus-induced IP3 formation are consistent with the role of IP3 as a second messenger in the chemoelectrical transduction of bitter taste.

Abstract
Calcium release from internal stores of Entamoeba histolytica, a parasitic protozoan, was observed by measuring fluorescence of Fura-2. Emptying of inositol(1,4,5)trisphosphate (Ins(1,4,5)P3)-sensitive calcium pools in permeabilized E. histolytica did not significantly affect subsequent calcium release by inositol(1,3,4,5)tetrakis-phosphate (Ins(1,3,4,5)P4). Similarly, prior depletion of Ins(1,3,4,5)P4-sensitive stores did not have any influence on subsequent calcium release by Ins(1,4,5)P3. The EC50 for calcium release was 0.15 microM with Ins(1,4,5)P3 and 0.68 microM with Ins(1,3,4,5)P4. In conclusion, the Ins(1,3,4,5)P4-sensitive calcium store in E. histolytica is separate and independent from the Ins(1,4,5)P3-sensitive pool.

Abstract
Several laboratories have reported that diacylglycerol levels in human platelets (approximately 100 pmol/10(9) platelets) increased severalfold in response to 0.5-1 U/ml thrombin. We report here fluctuations in diacylglycerol mass in control platelets, the magnitude of which were 60-90% of that measured in platelets treated with 0.2-0.5 U/ml of thrombin. These control platelets were not activated by such criteria as absence of aggregation, secretion, phosphatidic acid production and phosphorylation of the protein kinase C substrate, pleckstrin. Thrombin treatment evoked all of the above responses. Analysis of the diacylglycerol molecular species by reverse-phase HPLC of the dimethylated, phosphorylated derivatives showed that all of the molecular species that were present in control platelets were also present in thrombin-treated platelets. Most of the species appeared to fluctuate at random in control platelets with the exception of 1-stearoyl-2-arachidonoyl-sn-glycerol which was more or less stable and increased severalfold over control values only upon thrombin treatment. Furthermore, only this species accumulated as [32P]phosphorylated PtdOH in thrombin-treated platelets prelabelled with [32P]Pi. Our findings show that, in platelets, elevation of diacylglycerol molecular species other than the 1-stearoyl-2-arachidonoyl species occurs, but these changes are not necessarily linked to activation of protein kinase C as measured by pleckstrin phosphorylation which was observed only upon elevation of 1-stearoyl-2-arachidonoyl-sn-glycerol.

Abstract
It is well established that ADP causes aggregation of human blood platelets, and indeed it was the first aggregating agent to be studied, but the ways in which platelets respond to ADP are still relatively obscure. Although it is apparent that increases in intracellular Ca2+ concentrations are of major importance in activating platelets, it is not clearly understood how ADP causes these increases and what other signal transduction mechanisms it uses. It is not even clear whether ADP causes its effects by interacting with only one receptor, or whether multiple receptors for ADP exist on platelets. In this review, Susanna Hourani and David Hall examine some of the conflicting evidence in this field, and draw some tentative conclusions about the number and nature of receptors for ADP on human platelets.

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.
