Abstract We examined the hypothesis that filamin A binding to the cytoplasmic tail of platelet glycoprotein Ibα (GpIbα) is regulated by pathologic shear stress and modulates von Willebrand factor (VWF)–induced platelet activation. To begin, we examined filamin binding to GpIbα in Chinese hamster ovary cells coexpressing mutant human GpIb-IX and wild-type human filamin A. We observed that many different deletions and truncations N-terminal to GpIbα's cytoplasmic domain residue 594 disrupted filamin A binding, but that binding was unaffected by 14 different point mutations in hydrophilic residues between amino acids 557 and 593. To try to narrow GpIbα's filamin A–binding domain, we next measured the effect of several cytoplasmic domain peptides on human filamin A binding to a GST-GpIbα cytoplasmic domain fusion protein. One peptide (residues 557-575; designated “A4 peptide”) inhibited filamin A binding to the GST-GpIbα cytoplasmic domain fusion protein and competed with GpIbα for binding to filamin A. When the A4 peptide was delivered to intact human platelets using a carrier peptide, we observed the dose-dependent inhibition of VWF-induced platelet aggregation in response to both ristocetin and shear stress. The effect of the A4 peptide on shear-induced platelet aggregation was accompanied by the attenuation of shear-induced filamin A binding to GpIbα and diminished shear-dependent protein tyrosine phosphorylation. These results suggest that shear-dependent VWF-induced platelet activation affects filamin A binding to GpIb-IX-V, and that filamin A binding to the cytoplasmic tail of GpIbα regulates proaggregatory tyrosine kinase signaling.

Abstract Abstract SCI-39 The platelet glycoprotein (GP) Ib-IX-V complex mediates the initial attachment of platelets to regions of blood vessel damage by binding von Willebrand factor (VWF) exposed in the matrix at the site of injury. This interaction is especially important in the arterial system and microvasculature, given that it is the preferred platelet adhesive event at high shear stress. The interaction is positively and negatively regulated in several ways, including through exposure of the GPIb-binding site on VWF by shear stress or collagen binding, cleavage of VWF by the metalloprotease ADAMTS13, and in the platelet by the targeting of the GPIb-IX-V complex to lipid rafts, cytoskeletal attachments, and binding of the adaptor protein 14-3-3. Association with 14-3-3 has complex roles in regulating accessibility of GPIbα (the ligand-binding subunit of the complex), as several binding sites have been identified within the cytoplasmic domains for this adaptor molecule, and these are regulated by phosphorylation. To address the role of GPIbα phosphorylation in regulating platelet adhesion to VWF, we mutated 5 cytoplasmic Ser and Thr residues that were predicted by bioinformatics programs to be targets for serine/threonine kinases (Thr547, Ser566, Ser587, Ser590, Ser609) and expressed the mutants either as an isolated cytoplasmic domain or in intact GP Ibα as part of a GP Ib-IX complex expressed in CHO cells. We tested whether the following kinases could phosphorylate a recombinant GP Iba cytoplasmic tail: protein kinase A (PKA), protein kinase C (PKC), calmodulin-dependent kinase II (CaMKII) and Akt. All but Akt phosphorylated the region. We then tested polypeptides with various combinations of mutations to these residues for phosphorylation by PKA, and found that this kinase phosphorylated each of the residues except Ser590. We also examined the effect of the mutations on 14-3-3z association and on cell attachment and rolling on VWF. The findings from these studies were complex, with the results of 14-3-3 association suggesting a hierarchy of 14-3-3 binding. This binding did not correlate with the effect of the mutations on attachment on VWF or the rolling velocity profiles. Nevertheless, mutants could be clustered in terms of these effects, the aggregate of the data suggesting a very complex pattern of GPIb-IX-V regulation by the GP Ibα cytoplasmic tail, which will have to be taken into account when considering the association of GP Ibα with 14-3-3 as an antithrombotic target.

SummaryPorcine von Willebrand factor (P-vWF) binds to human platelet glycoprotein (GP) lb and, upon stirring (1500 rpm/min) at 37° C, induces, in a dose-dependent manner, a transmembrane flux of Ca2+ ions and platelet aggregation with an increase in their intracellular concentration. The inhibition of P-vWF binding to GP lb, obtained with anti GP lb monoclonal antibody (LJ-Ib1), inhibits the increase of intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) and platelet aggregation. This effect is not observed with LJ-Ib10, an anti GP lb monoclonal antibody which does not inhibit the vWF binding to GP lb. An anti GP Ilb-IIIa monoclonal antibody (LJ-CP8) shown to inhibit the binding of both vWF and fibrinogen to the GP IIb-IIIa complex, had only a slight effect on the [Ca2+]i rise elicited by the addition of P-vWF. No inhibition was also observed with a different anti GP IIb-IIIa monoclonal antibody (LJ-P5), shown to block the binding of vWF and not that of fibrinogen to the GP IIb-IIIa complex. PGE1, apyrase and indomethacin show a minimal effect on [Ca2+]i rise, while EGTA completely blocks it. The GP lb occupancy by recombinant vWF fragment rvWF445-733 completely inhibits the increase of [Ca2+]i and large aggregates formation. Our results suggest that, in analogy to what is seen with human vWF under high shear stress, the binding of P-vWF to platelet GP lb, at low shear stress and through the formation of aggregates of an appropriate size, induces a transmembrane flux of Ca2+, independently from platelet cyclooxy-genase metabolism, perhaps through a receptor dependent calcium channel. The increase in [Ca2+]i may act as an intracellular message and cause the activation of the GP IIb-IIIa complex.

Shear-induced platelet aggregation (SIPA) involves von Willebrand Factor (vWF) binding to platelet glycoprotein (GP)Ib at high shear stress, followed by the activation of αIIbβ3. The purpose of this study was to determine the vWF sequences involved in SIPA by using monoclonal antibodies (MoAbs) to vWF known to interfere with its binding to GPIb and to αIIbβ3. Washed platelets were exposed to shear rates between 100 and 4,000 seconds−1 in a rotational viscometer. SIPA was quantitated by flow cytometry as the disappearance of single platelets (DSP) in the sheared sample in the presence of vWF, relative to a control in the absence of shear and vWF. At a shear rate of 4,000 seconds−1, DSP was increased from 5.9% ± 3.5% in the absence of vWF to 32.7% ± 6.3% in the presence of vWF. This increase in SIPA was not associated with an elevation of P-selectin expression. vWF-dependent SIPA was completely abolished by MoAb 6D1 to GPIb and partially inhibited by MoAb 10E5 to αIIbβ3. Three MoAbs to vWF were compared for their effect on SIPA at 4,000 seconds−1 in the presence of vWF: MoAb 328, known to block vWF binding to GPIb in the presence of ristocetin, MoAb 724 blocking vWF binding to GPIb in the presence of botrocetin, and MoAb 9, an inhibitor of vWF binding to αIIbβ3. Similar to the effect of MoAb 6D1, MoAb 328 completely inhibited the effect of vWF, whereas MoAb 9 had a partial inhibitory effect, as MoAb 10E5 did. In contrast, MoAb 724, as well as its F(ab′)2 fragments, promoted shear-dependent platelet aggregation (165% of the DSP value obtained in the absence of MoAb 724), indicating that MoAb 724 was responsible for an enhanced aggregation, which was independent of binding to the platelet Fcγ receptor. In addition, the enhancement of aggregation induced by MoAb 724 was abrogated by MoAb 6D1 or 10E5 to the level of SIPA obtained in the presence of vWF incubated with a control MoAb to vWF. Finally, the activating effect of MoAb 724 was also found under static conditions at ristocetin concentrations too low to induce platelet aggregation. Our results suggested that on binding to a botrocetin-binding site on vWF, MoAb 724 mimics the effect of botrocetin by inducing an active conformation of vWF that is more sensitive to shear stress or to low ristocetin concentration.

Abstract Background: The replacement therapy with plasma-derived factor VIII (FVIII)/von Willebrand factor (VWF) concentrates is the first line treatment for the patients with type 3 von Willebrand disease (VWD). However, development of anti-VWF alloantibodies (inhibitor) is a major problem since the inhibitor neutralizes the VWF activity and may cause anaphylactic reactions. As an alternative treatment, the usage of FVIII concentrates has been reported but the mechanism of the hemostatic effects remains to be elucidated. Objectives: The purpose of this study is to address the role of FVIII in the hemostatic mechanism in the absence of VWF by in vitro and ex vivo analysis in the treatment for type 3 VWD with recombinant FVIII (rFVIII). Patient/Methods: The patient is a 55-year-old male with type 3 VWD. Blood samples were obtained before and 30 min after bolus administration. Rotating thromboelastometry (ROTEM) assay was performed to examine global interactions in hemostasis. To elucidate the effect on platelet activation, α-thrombin- and shear-induced platelet aggregation studies were performed. Further, α-thrombin-induced [Ca2+]i rise was assessed using fura2-AM loaded platelets. Results and Implications: The patient underwent two surgical procedures of multiple teeth extractions successfully with minimal bleeding by bolus administration of rFVIII (50 IU/kg) before procedure and followed by continuous infusion at rate of 10 IU/kg/h for 15 hours. FVIII:C was elevated from 1.0% to 20~30% 30 min after bolus infusion and maintained ~15% after 12 h-continuous infusion. ROTEM analysis showed that infusion of rFVIII shortened clotting time (preinfusion 2083.8±784.3 sec vs. post-infusion 1022.0±191.5 sec) and clot formation time (pre 1267.3±455.4 sec vs. post 705.8±261.8 sec) and increased α (pre 8.5±7.4 degree vs. post 23.5±4.4 degree). The α value and CFT indicate the rate of increase of elastic shear modulus. Addition of rFVIII to preinfusion blood in vitro corrected ROTEM parameters and thrombin-induced aggregation dose-dependently. Infusion of FVIII enhanced thrombin-induced platelet aggregation (% maximal aggregation: pre 26.3% vs. post 98.2%) as well as low shear-induced platelet aggregation (% maximal aggregation: pre 18% vs. post 52%). Furthermore, infusion of rFVIII meliorated thrombin-induced intracellular calcium flux of washed platelets (thrombin 10 nM, Ca flux: pre 414.0 nM vs. post 620.6 nM). Recently, the cell-based model of hemostasis provides a solid foundation for the relation between platelet and coagulation. Although coagulation initiation occurs normally via the extrinsic pathway, amplification mediated by the intrinsic pathway is seriously disturbed in type 3 VWD due to the marked decrease in FVIII. Therefore, correction of FVIII could result in the improvement of hemostasis. Our data demonstrated the effectiveness of FVIII in the surgical treatment for type 3 VWD and further suggested that FVIII molecules are incorporated into platelet phospholipids to facilitate platelet activation as well as act directly to intrinsic pathways to normalize coagulation. Conclusions: Our observations suggested that FVIII plays an essential role in hemostasis in the absence of VWF and provided the rationale for the usage of rFVIII in the hemostatic management of type 3 VWD.

Different types of platelets in various types of plasma were subjected to levels of shear stress that produce irreversible platelet aggregation in normal platelet-rich plasma (PRP). At shear stresses of 90 or 180 dyne/cm2 applied for 30 seconds or five minutes, aggregation was either absent or only transient and reversible using severe von Willebrand's disease (vWD) PRP (less than 1% von Willebrand factor, vWF); Bernard-Soulier syndrome (BSS) PRP (platelets deficient in the membrane glycoprotein Ib, GPIb); normal PRP plus monoclonal antibody (MoAb) to GPIb; thrombasthenic PRP (platelets deficient in membrane glycoprotein IIb-IIIa complex, GPIIb-IIIa); and normal PRP plus MoAb to GPIIb-IIIa. Shear-induced aggregation was inhibited under the above conditions, even though the platelets were activated to release their granular contents. Sheared normal platelets in vWD plasma aggregated in response to added vWF. These studies demonstrate that the formation of stable platelet aggregates under conditions of high shear requires vWF and the availability of both GPIb and GPIIb-IIIa on platelet membranes. The experiments demonstrate that vWF-platelet interactions can occur in the absence of artificial agonists or chemical modification of vWF. They suggest a possible mechanism for platelet aggregation in stenosed or partially obstructed arterial vessels in which the platelets are subjected to relatively high levels of shear stress.
