A human malignant melanoma cell line (M3Dau) was observed by electron microscopy to interact directly with human platelets and induced platelet aggregation. Fab fragments of a monoclonal antibody MoAb (LYP18), directed against the platelet glycoprotein (GP) IIb-IIIa complex, inhibited platelet-melanoma interactions and platelet-platelet aggregation. M3Dau melanoma cells bind LYP 18 and synthesize IIb-IIIa- like GPs. When the melanoma cells were preincubated with LYP 18, tumor- platelet interaction did not occur, suggesting that the interaction may be mediated by the IIb-IIIa-like GPs present on the melanoma cell surface. Glanzmann's thrombasthenic platelets, lacking GPIIb and IIIa, did not interact with melanoma cells, indicating that the platelet GPIIb-IIIa complex is also necessary for the platelet-melanoma cell interaction. This work demonstrates the importance of the IIb-IIIa-like GPs, present on M3Dau melanoma cells, in mediating tumor-platelet interactions.

A monoclonal antibody (MoAb) (LYP18), generated against human platelet glycoprotein IIb/IIIa (GPIIb/IIIa), immuno-precipitated a IIb/IIIa-like GP complex from a highly tumorigenic human melanoma cell line (M3Dau). The M3Dau melanoma cells specifically bound 125I-labeled LYP18. To study the biologic role of these IIb/IIIa-like glycoproteins, M3Dau melanoma cells were incubated with LYP18 or a control MoAb directed against another melanoma cell-surface antigen and implanted subcutaneously (SC) in nude mice. LYP18 dramatically inhibited the growth of tumor in vivo. LYP18 was not directly cytotoxic to the melanoma cells. These results demonstrate that the IIb/IIIa-like GPs are present on melanoma cells and play a crucial role in tumor cell growth. MoAbs directed against tumor cytoadhesive receptors may represent a novel approach in tumor treatment.

Thrombospondin (TSP), isolated from human platelets, promotes aggregation of both nonstimulated platelets and platelets stimulated with thrombin or ADP. The TSP-promoted aggregation is specific since a monoclonal antibody against TSP inhibits the effect of exogenously added TSP and inhibits thrombin-induced platelet aggregation in the absence of added TSP. Several lines of evidence suggest that TSP mediates its effect on aggregation of nonstimulated and stimulated platelets through different platelet-surface receptor systems. The TSP- promoted aggregation of nonstimulated platelets was inhibited by a monoclonal antibody to platelet glycoprotein IV (GPIV), but not by a monoclonal antibody to the fibrinogen receptor, GPIIb-IIIa. In contrast, the antibody to GPIIb-IIIa totally inhibited the TSP- potentiated aggregation of thrombin-stimulated platelets, whereas the antibody to GPIV has no effect. Thus, these studies suggest that TSP promotes platelet aggregation by at least two mechanisms--one dependent on and one independent of the platelet fibrinogen receptor system.

SummaryWe report the characterization of a monoclonal antibody (MAb) PM6/13 which recognises glycoprotein IIIa (GPIIIa) on platelet membranes and in functional studies inhibits platelet aggregation induced by all agonists examined. In platelet-rich plasma, inhibition of aggregation induced by ADP or low concentrations of collagen was accompanied by inhibition of 5-hydroxytryptamine secretion. EC50 values were 10 and 9 [H9262]g/ml antibody against ADP and collagen induced responses respectively. In washed platelets treated with the cyclooxygenase inhibitor, indomethacin, PM6/13 inhibited platelet aggregation induced by thrombin (0.2 U/ml), collagen (10 [H9262]g/ml) and U46619 (3 [H9262]M) with EC50 = 4, 8 and 4 [H9262]g/ml respectively, without affecting [14C]5-hydroxytryptamine secretion or [3H]arachidonate release in appropriately labelled cells. Studies in Fura 2-labelled platelets revealed that elevation of intracellular calcium by ADP, thrombin or U46619 was unaffected by PM6/13 suggesting that the epitope recognised by the antibody did not influence Ca2+ regulation. In agreement with the results from the platelet aggregation studies, PM6/13 was found to potently inhibit binding of 125I-fibrinogen to ADP activated platelets. Binding of this ligand was also inhibited by two other MAbs tested, namely SZ-21 (also to GPIIIa) and PM6/248 (to the GPIIb-IIIa complex). However when tested against binding of 125I-fibronectin to thrombin stimulated platelets, PM6/13 was ineffective in contrast with SZ-21 and PM6/248, that were both potent inhibitors. This suggested that the epitopes recognised by PM6/13 and SZ-21 on GPIIIa were distinct. Studies employing proteolytic dissection of 125I-labelled GPIIIa by trypsin followed by immunoprecipitation with PM6/13 and analysis by SDS-PAGE, revealed the presence of four fragments at 70, 55, 30 and 28 kDa. PM6/13 did not recognize any protein bands on Western blots performed under reducing conditions. However Western blotting analysis with PM6/13 under non-reducing conditions revealed strong detection of the parent GP IIIa molecule, of trypsin treated samples revealed recognition of an 80 kDa fragment at 1 min, faint recognition of a 60 kDa fragment at 60 min and no recognition of any product at 18 h treatment. Under similar conditions, SZ-21 recognized fragments at 80, 75 and 55 kDa with the 55kDa species persisting even after 18 h trypsin treatment. These studies confirm the epitopes recognised by PM6/13 and SZ-21 to be distinct and that PM6/13 represents a useful tool to differentiate the characteristics of fibrinogen and fibronectin binding to the GPIIb-IIIa complex on activated platelets.

SummaryThe anti-platelet monoclonal antibody P256 is currently undergoing development for in vivo detection of thrombus. We have examined the actions of P256 and two fragments on human platelet function. P256, and its divalent fragment, caused aggregation at concentrations of 10−9−3 × 10−8 M. A monovalent fragment of P256 did not cause aggregation at concentrations up to 10−7 M. P256–induced platelet aggregation was dependent upon extracellular calcium ions as assessed by quin2 fluorescence. Indomethacin partially inhibited platelet aggregation and completely inhibited intracellular calcium mobilisation. Apyrase caused partial inhibition of aggregation. Aggregation induced by the divalent fragment was dependent upon fibrinogen and was inhibited by prostacyclin. Aggregation induced by the whole antibody was only partially dependent upon fibrinogen, but was also inhibited by prostacyclin. P256 whole antibody was shown, by flow cytometry, to induce fibrinogen binding to indomethacin treated platelets. Monovalent P256 was shown to be a specific antagonist for aggregation induced by the divalent forms. In–111–labelled monovalent fragment bound to gel-filtered platelets in a saturable and displaceable manner. Monovalent P256 represents a safer form for in vivo applications

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.

SummaryWe produced a murine monoclonal antibody, 7H2, and localized its epitope to one or more small regions on platelet glycoprotein (GP) Ilia. 7H2-IgG and 7H2-F(ab’)2 completely inhibit platelet aggregation and fibrinogen binding at low agonist concentrations, but only partially inhibit aggregation and fibrinogen binding at high agonist concentrations; 7H2-Fab has no effect on aggregation or fibrinogen binding at any agonist concentration. 7H2-IgG binds to the entire platelet population as judged by flow cytometry. At near saturating concentrations, ∼40,000 7H2-IgG antibody molecules bind per platelet. In contrast, ∼80,000 7H2 Fab molecules bind per platelet, suggesting that 7H2-IgG binding is bivalent. 7H2 was unable to inhibit fibrinogen binding to purified, immobilized GPIIb/IIIa. These data indicate that the bivalent binding of 7H2 to GPIIIa is required for its partial inhibition of fibrinogen binding to platelets, perhaps through dimerization of GPIIb/IIIa surface receptors (or more complex GPIIb/IIIa redistribution triggered by 7H2 binding) resulting in limited accessibility of fibrinogen to its binding site(s).
