The adapter protein SLP-76 is a critical mediator of signal
transduction via the platelet collagen receptor glycoprotein VI (GPVI)
and its coreceptor FcR . We tested the hypothesis that SLP-76 is
required for collagen-induced procoagulant responses in murine
platelets. Platelets from SLP-76 null (SLP-76 / ) or
heterozygous (SLP-76+/ ) mice were activated with the GPVI
agonist convulxin, and surface expression of P-selectin (a marker of
granule release) and annexin V binding (a marker of procoagulant
phospholipid) were determined by flow cytometry. Convulxin induced
surface expression of P-selectin in SLP-76+/ platelets,
but not SLP-76 / platelets (P < .01), and
failed to stimulate annexin V binding to either SLP-76+/
or SLP-76 / platelets. Platelet procoagulant activity
was measured in a prothrombinase assay. Convulxin did not stimulate
procoagulant activity in either SLP-76+/ or
SLP-76 / platelets, but fibrillar collagen produced a
1.9-fold increase in procoagulant activity in both
SLP-76+/ and SLP-76 / platelets
(P < .001 versus unstimulated platelets). Similar
results were obtained with platelets from FcR null mice, for which
collagen, but not convulxin, induced procoagulant activity
(P < .01). Costimulation with thrombin and collagen
produced a further (2.3-fold) increase in procoagulant activity in
SLP-76+/ platelets (P < .05), but not in
SLP-76 / platelets. SLP-76 / platelets
also exhibited less annexin V binding than SLP-76+/
platelets after costimulation with thrombin and convulxin
(P < .05). These findings demonstrate that an intact
GPVI/FcR /SLP-76 signal transduction pathway is not essential for
platelet procoagulant activity induced by collagen but is necessary for
maximal procoagulant response to costimulation with thrombin plus
collagen. Thus, both GPVI-dependent and GPVI-independent pathways
contribute to collagen-induced platelet procoagulant activity.
