SummaryArginine-vasopressin (AVP) in the presence of Mg2+ but not in the absence of bivalent cations led to accumulation of [32P]-phosphatidic acid ([32P]-PA) in human blood platelets. Mg2+ also enhanced the specific binding of [3H]-AVP to intact platelets. The concentrations of the cation which enabled AVP to cause half maximal rise of [32P]-PA and those inducing half maximal [3H]-AVP-binding were of the same order. It is concluded that the stimulation of phosphatidyl inositide breakdown by AVP in presence of Mg2+ is at least partially due to a Mg2+-induced enhancement of specific AVP-binding to the platelet membranes.

SummaryThrombin-induced platelet release reaction examined with secretion of calcium and N-acetylglucosaminidase was significantly enhanced in the platelets from reserpine-treated rabbits as compared with the control. On the other hand, 32P-incorporation into phosphatidic acid was suppressed in the reserpinized platelets in activated state. Thrombin induced phosphatidylinositol (PI)- breakdown, which was examined by decreases in radioactivity and content of PI, and an increase in diacylglycerol, was not enhanced in the reserpinized platelets as compared with the control. The phosphorylation of the specific protein coupled to thrombin- induced platelet PI-breakdown was not stimulated in the reserpinized platelets as compared with the control. In contrast to PI, PC-degradation by thrombin was significantly stimulated in the reserpinized platelets. Possible existence of pathway(s) other than that associated with an enhancement of Pl-tumover is conceivable as a mechanism involved in platelet release reaction.
