The interactions between ligands containing the recognition sequence
arginine-glycine-aspartic acid (RGD) and integrin receptors are important
in many cell-cell and cell-protein interactions. The platelet contains five
integrin receptors and they contribute significantly to platelet adhesion
and aggregation. To investigate the RGD binding domains on platelet
integrins, we immobilized a series of RGD peptides containing variable
numbers of glycine residues [(G)n-RGDF] on polyacrylonitrile beads and
evaluated the ability of the beads to interact with platelets. With native
platelets, virtually no interaction occurred with G1-RGDF beads, but the
interactions increased as the number of glycine residues increased,
plateauing with the G9- RGDF and G11-RGDF beads. ADP pretreatment enhanced
the interactions with all of the beads, whereas prostaglandin E1
pretreatment eliminated the interactions with the shortest peptide beads,
but only partially inhibited interactions with the longer peptide beads.
Monoclonal antibodies to glycoprotein (GP) IIb/IIIa were most effective in
inhibiting the interactions, but antibodies to GPIIb/IIIa with similar
inhibitory effects on fibrinogen binding varied dramatically in their
ability to inhibit the interaction between platelets and immobilized RGD
peptides. Our data indicate that the majority of RGD binding sites on
GPIIb/IIIa can be reached by peptides that extend out approximately 11 to
32 A from the surface of the bead, and these results are in accord with the
dimensions of integrin receptors deduced from electron microscopy.
Activation of GPIIb/IIIa facilitates the interactions, but platelet
inhibition fails to eliminate the interactions with the longer peptide
beads, suggesting that access to the RGD binding site on at least a
fraction of the GPIIb/IIIa receptors is always possible for preferred
ligands. Finally, we found that the G3-RGDF peptide beads were uniquely
sensitive to the activation state of the GPIIb/IIIa receptor.
