glycoprotein IIb-IIIa in a patient with impaired pleckstrin phosphorylation

Platelet-agonist interaction results in activation of glycoprotein (GP)
IIb-IIIa complex and fibrinogen binding, a prerequisite for platelet
aggregation. Fibrinogen binding exposes new antibody binding sites on
GPIIb-IIIa (ligand-induced binding sites: LIBS). Signal transduction
events, including pleckstrin phosphorylation by protein kinase C (PKC), are
considered to regulate GPIIb-IIIa activation. We studied a 16-year- old
white male with lifelong mucocutaneous bleeding manifestations and abnormal
platelet aggregation and secretion in response to multiple agonists.
Pleckstrin phosphorylation was diminished in response to
platelet-activating factor (PAF; 4 and 400 nmol/L) and thrombin (0.05
U/mL). Binding of monoclonal antibodies (MoAbs) 10E5 and A2A9, which bind
to both resting and activated GPIIb-IIIa, was normal. Binding of MoAb PAC1,
which binds to only activated GPIIb-IIIa, was diminished upon activation
with PAF, adenosine diphosphate (ADP), thrombin receptor agonist peptide
(SFLLRN), A23187, and 1,2-dioctonylglycerol (DiC8). Signal
transduction-dependent LIBS expression (studied using MoAb 62) induced by
ADP, SFLLRN, and DiC8 and signal transduction- independent LIBS expression
induced by RGDS peptide or disintegrin albolabrin were normal or minimally
decreased, indicating the presence of intact ligand binding sites. We
conclude that the patient's platelets have a defect in inside-out signal
transduction-dependent GPIIb-IIIa activation due to an upstream defect in
the signal transduction mechanisms rather than in the GPIIb-IIIa complex
itself. Our findings extend the spectrum of congenital mechanisms leading
to impaired aggregation from defects in GPIIb-IIIa per se to aberrations in
signaling mechanisms.
