Store operated Ca2+ entry (SOCE) is thought to comprise the major pathway for Ca2+ entry in platelets. Recently a number of transient receptor potential (TRP) proteins, that have been divided into three groups (TRPC, TRPM and TRPV), have been suggested as SOCE channels. We report the expression and function of TRPC proteins in human platelets. TRPC6 is found at high levels and TRPC1 at low levels. Using purified plasma (PM) and intracellular (IM) membranes TRPC6 is found in the PM but TRPC1 is localised to the IM. Using Fura-2 loaded platelets we report that in line with TRPC6 expression, 1-oleoyl-2-acetyl-sn-glycerol (OAG) stimulated the entry of Ca2+ and Ba2+ independent of protein kinase C. Thrombin also induced the entry of Ca2+ and Ba2+ but thapsigargin, which depletes the stores, only induced the entry of Ca2+. Thus thrombin activated TRPC6 via a SOCE independent mechanism. In phosphorylation studies we report that neither TRPC6 nor TRPC1 was a substrate for tyrosine kinases. TRPC6 was phosphorylated by cAMP-dependent protein kinase (cAMP-PK) and associated with other cAMP-PK substrates. TRPC1 was not phosphorylated by cAMP-PK but also associated with other substrates. Activation of cAMP-PK inhibited Ca2+ but not Ba2+ entry, induced by thrombin and neither Ca2+ nor Ba2+ entry stimulated by OAG. These results suggest that TRPC6 is a SOCE independent, non-selective cation entry channel stimulated by thrombin and OAG. TRPC6 is a substrate for cAMP-PK although phosphorylation appears not to affect cation permeation. TRPC1 is located in IM suggesting a role at the level of the stores.
