    Notes: Calyculin A and okadaic acid, potent and cell permeable inhibitors of type 1 and type 2A protein phosphatases, inhibit platelet aggregation and secretion. However, the relationship between phosphatase inhibition and inhibition of platelet function is not well understood. We found that in unstimulated platelets, talin (P235) was phosphorylated at threonine residues by calyculin A. Furthermore, the extent of talin phosphorylation by calyculin A was closely correlated with its inhibition of thrombin-induced platelet aggregation. Since the binding of talin to platelet glycoprotein IIb/IIIa complex has been shown to be affected by its phosphorylation, these results suggest that type 1 and/or type 2A protein phosphatases may play a role in the regulation of membrane-cytoskeleton interaction through dephosphorylation of talin.

    LFA-1/ICAM-3 mediates neutrophil homotypic aggregation under fluid shear stress (1996)

    Notes: We found that human neutrophils undergo homotypic aggregation by loading the physiological range of fluid shear stress (12-30 dynes/cm2). Under the fluid shear stress, an increase of intracellular Ca2+ concentration of neutrophils was observed. This increase of intracellular Ca2+ concentration was caused by Ca2+ influx, and the blockage of the flux by NiCl2 suppressed the neutrophil homotypic aggregation. Furthermore, this neutrophil aggregation under fluid shear stress was completely inhibited by pretreatment with antibody against LFA-1 or ICAM-3. These results suggested that NiCl2-sensitive Ca2+ channel played an important role in LFA-1/ICAM-3-mediated neutrophil homotypic aggregation under fluid shear stress. © 1996 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Calpain activation in shear-induced platelet aggregation (1997)
    New York, N.Y. : Wiley-Blackwell

    Notes: Fluid shear stress has been known to activate platelet reaction such as aggregation, but the exact mechanism of shear-induced platelet aggregation (SIPA) has not been fully understood. Calpain, an intracellular calcium-activated cysteine protease, is abundant in platelets and is considered to be activated and involved in the proteolytic processes during platelet activation. A possible activation of calpain in SIPA was investigated, employing a newly developed aggregometer and specific monoclonal antibodies to detect activation of calpain. When a shear stress gradient varying between 6 and 108 dyn/cm2 was applied to platelets, activation of μ-calpain was observed only in high-shear-stressed platelets, resulting in the proteolysis of talin. At 1 min after the onset of constant high shear stress of 108 dyn/cm2, μ-calpain activation and proteolysis of talin were detected and increased in a time-dependent manner. Constant shear stress more than 50 dyn/cm2, applied for 5 min, caused μ-calpain activation and proteolysis of talin, which were increased in a shear-force-dependent manner. Calpeptin, a calpain-specific peptide antagonist, caused the complete inhibition of both μ-calpain activation and proteolysis of talin, while SIPA profiles with calpeptin showed almost no change compared to those without calpeptin. These results suggest the possibility of calpain involvement in late phases of shear-induced platelet activation such as cytoskeletal reorganization. J. Cell.

    Notes: The presence of the calpain-calpastatin system in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) was investigated by means of ion exchange chromatography, Western blot analysis, and Northern blot analysis. On DEAE anion exchange chromatography, calpain and calpastatin activities were eluted at approximately 0.30 M and 0.15-0.25 M NaCl, respectively. For half-maximal activity, the protease required 800 μM Ca2+, comparable to the Ca2+ requirement of m-calpain. By Western blot analysis, the large subunit of μ-calpain (80 kDa) was found to be eluted with calpastatin (110 kDa). Both the large subunit of m-calpain (80 kDa) and calpastatin were detected in the respective active fractions. By Northern blot analysis, mRNAs for large subunits of μ- and m-calpains were detected in single bands, each corresponding to approximately 3.5 Kb. Calpastatin mRNA was observed in two bands corresponding to approximately 3.8 and 2.6 Kb. Furthermore, the activation of μ-calpain in HUVEC by a calcium ionophore was examined, using an antibody specifically recognizing an autolytic intermediate form of μ-calpain large subunit (78 kDa). Both talin and filamin of HUVEC were proteolyzed in a calcium-dependent manner, and the reactions were inhibited by calpeptin, a cell-permeable calpain specific inhibitor. Proteolysis of the cytoskeleton was preceded by the appearance of the autolytic intermediate form of μ-calpain, while the fully autolyzed postautolysis form of μ-calpain (76 kDa) remained below detectable levels at all time points examined. These results indicate that the calpain-calpastatin system is present in human endothelial cells and that μ-calpain may be involved in endothelial cell function mediated by Ca2+ via the limited proteolysis of various proteins.
