Stimulation of platelets by thrombin produced a rise in [32P]phosphatidic acid labelling of platelets which was greater in medium without added calcium than in medium with 2.5 mM calcium. A rise in [32P]lysophosphatidic acid was also seen in platelets stimulated by thrombin in the presence of 2.5 mM extracellular calcium, though it was of lesser magnitude (average 35%) than the rise in phosphatidic acid. In platelets resuspended without added calcium no change in [32P]lysophosphatidic acid was seen in response to thrombin. Lysophosphatidic acid can itself induce platelet aggregation. Similarly to the calcium ionophore A23187, lysophosphatidic acid produced minimal change (in medium with no added calcium) to no change (in medium with 2.5 mM external calcium) in [32P]lysophosphatidic acid. The endoperoxide analog U46619 produced changes in 32P-labelling of platelet phosphatidic and lysophosphatidic acid similar to those produced by thrombin but of lesser magnitude. The results of these studies show that the action of lysophosphatidic acid on platelets differs from the action of thrombin, U46619 and platelet-activating factor, which produce a rapid rise in [32P]phosphatidic acid, and suggests that lysophosphatidic acid, like A23187, largely bypasses the initial receptor-coupled breakdown of phosphoinositides leading to formation of diacylglycerols and phosphatidic acid.
