SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis was used to study the effects of the thiol inhibitor monobromobimane (MB), EDTA, and prostaglandin E1 (PGE1) on the formation and composition of the platelet cytoskeletal core (Triton-insoluble residue) and its association with glycoprotein (GP) IIIa. Stimulation or aggregation of platelets in response to ADP or thrombin increased the amount of Triton-insoluble myosin. Aggregation resulted in incorporation of [125I]GP IIIa and a new band at about 210 kDa into the cytoskeletal core. EDTA and PGE1 caused little disaggregation of platelets that were aggregated in PRP with ADP and that had secreted the contents of their granules. In contrast to EDTA, PGE1 decreased the amount of Triton-insoluble residue and its association with GP IIIa. MB added after ADP-induced aggregation caused an increase in the amount of cytoskeletal core despite marked disaggregation and a substantial decrease in core-associated GP IIIa. With aspirin-treated platelets that had not secreted, EDTA, PGE1, and MB all caused disaggregation and loss of cytoskeletal GP IIIa. MB diminished, but did not reverse, thrombin-induced aggregation of washed platelets and arrested GP IIIa incorporation into the cytoskeletal core. Concanavalin A (Con A) cross-links glycoproteins on a single platelet and induces incorporation of GP IIIa into the Triton-insoluble residue in the absence of platelet aggregation. This induction was not inhibited by MB, although this reagent, as well as aspirin, inhibited Con A-induced secretion. Since GP IIIa incorporation caused by ADP-induced aggregation differs from that caused by Con A in its susceptibility to MB, it seems unlikely that thiol groups are directly involved in the association of GP IIIa with the cytoskeletal core.
