THROMBOSIS AND HEMOSTASIS CEACAM1 negatively regulates platelet-collagen interactions and thrombus growth in vitro and in vivo1 Burnet Institute incorporating the Austin Research Institute, Heidelberg, Australia; 2 Rudolf Virchow Center for Experimental Biomedicine, University of Würzburg, Würzburg, Germany; 3 Department of Laboratory Medicine and Pathobiology, St Michael's Hospital, University of Toronto and Canadian Blood Services, Toronto, ON; and 4 McGill Cancer Centre, McGill University, Montreal, QC
Carcinoembryonic antigen cell adhesion molecule-1 (CEACAM1) is a surface glycoprotein expressed on various blood cells, epithelial cells, and vascular cells. CEACAM1 possesses adhesive and signaling properties mediated by its intrinsic immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibitory motifs that recruit SHP-1 protein-tyrosine phosphatase. In this study, we demonstrate that CEACAM1 is expressed on the surface and in intracellular pools of platelets. In addition, CEACAM1 serves to negatively regulate signaling of platelets by collagen through the glycoprotein VI (GPVI)/Fc receptor (FcR)–
