The change in intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) following platelet stimulation results from mobilization, influx and restoration of Ca2+. To determine whether inositol 1,4,5 trisphosphate (IP3) is involved in Ca2+ influx, the relationship between IP3 formation (IP3) and Ca2+ influx ( delta [Ca2+]i) was investigated in platelets stimulated wtih various agonists (thrombin, ADP, PAF, STA2, etc). The ratio of IP3 to delta [Ca2+]i varied among the agonists, although delta [Ca2+]i was increased, depending on the amount of agonist. Furthermore, in spite of the similar delta [Ca2+]i, IP3 was smaller at 20 degrees C compared with that at 37 degrees C in thrombin-stimulated platelets. These results indicate that Ca2+ influx in platelets might be regulated by receptor-operated Ca2+ channel rather than by an IP3 mediated mechanism. As for Ca2+ restoration, calpain was demonstrated to play a role through Ca(2+)-ATPase activation by limited proteolysis.
