Rates of production and consumption of phosphatidic acid upon thrombin stimulation of human platelets

Abstract: Human platelets were labelled with [32P]Pi and [3H]glycerol before gel filtration. In unstimulated cells, the specific 32P radioactivity in phosphatidic acid (PtdOH) was similar to that of phosphatidylinositol (PtdIns) but only 4% of that of the y-phosphate of ATP. Upon 3 min of stimulation with 0.5 U/ml of thrombin, there was a 20-fold increase in specific 32P radioactivity of PtdOH which approached that of the ATP y-phosphate. Based on constant rates of synthesis and removal, this thrombin-induced increase i… Show more

“…However, this argument is contradicted by the finding of similar levels of 32Pactivities in the PI fractions from both microbubble-stimulated platelets and from unstimulated platelets. Furthermore, the conversion steps in the PPI cycle from PA to PI have been suggested to occur at a slower rate than the steps from PIP2 to PA (13). The unchanged levels of 32P-PIPz, observed in unstimulated platelets are in agreement with this conclusion.…”

“…Freshly drawn venous blood was provided by the Blood Bank (Haukeland University Hospital, Bergen, Norway), and isolated as previously described [50,51]. In brief, blood was collected into a final 0.15 volume of acid citrated dextrose (ACD; 71 mM citric acid, 85 mM Na3-citrate, 100 mM glucose).…”

“…[3H]Inositol was time-dependently incorporated into phosphoinositides up to 300 min. After 150 min incubation, the distribution of 3H radioactivity in Ptdlns (86 %), PtdlnsP (7 %) and PtdInsP2 (6%) became similar to the mass ratio of phosphoinositides [33,35]. To prevent the decrease in platelet responsiveness after long incubation, platelets were labelled for 150 min.…”
