Labeling of the releasable adenine nucleotides of washed human platelets.
In rabbit platelets, the metabolically active ATP pool equilibrates with the releasable ATP pool within 1 day. The studies showing this have now been extended to human platelets. Human platelets labeled with 14C-adenosine or 14C-adenine were incubated for up to 10 hr in vitro at 37 degrees C. After 10 hr, about 12% of the total platelet 14C-ATP and 14C-ADP had become releasable with thrombin (4...
متن کاملTransfer of adenine nucleotides between the releasable and nonreleasable compartments of rabbit blood platelets
The metabolic pool of adenine nucleotides in platelets can be labeled by incubating platelets for 1 h in vitro with [14C]adenosine or [32P]orthophosphate. When these platelets are treated with thrombin, the adenine nucleotides released are not labeled. Because of this, Holmsen's suggestion of a metabolically inert pool of granule nucleotides has been generally accepted. We have found that upon ...
متن کاملEffect of thrombin on the radioactive nucleotides of human washed platelets.
Radioactive ATP and ADP were found in platelets after incubation of human platelet-rich plasma with either [8-(14)C]adenosine or [8-(14)C]ADP. Treatment of the labelled and washed platelets with thrombin indicated that, though considerable amounts of ATP and ADP were released to the supernatant, radioactive ATP and ADP remained predominantly in the cellular fraction. Breakdown of radioactive AT...
متن کاملFactor H binds to washed human platelets.
BACKGROUND Factor H regulates the alternative pathway of complement. The protein has three heparin-binding sites, is synthesized primarily in the liver and copurifies from platelets with thrombospondin-1. Factor H mutations at the C-terminus are associated with atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome, a condition in which platelets are consumed. Objectives The aim of this study was to investigate if...
متن کاملFluorescent labeling of human platelets.
Noncovalently bound fluorescent probes have been used to study changes in the platelet which may occur during platelet aggregation. Platelets were exposed to either N-phenyl-naphthylamine (NPN) or 8-anilino-1-naphthalene-sulfonic acid (ANS). Both dyes were bound by the platelet, and platelet aggregation by collagen or thrombin was unaffected by the presence of the label. No change in fluorescen...
