摘要
Platelets have abundant tyrosine kinase activities, and activation of platelets results in the increased tyrosine phosphorylation of numerous protein substrates. The stimulation of tyrosine phosphorylation elicited by thrombin can be completely inhibited by preincubation with 10nm prostacyclin (PGI2), 1μM PGD2, or 1mM N2, 2′-O-dibutyryl-cAMP. In contrast, incubation of platelets with agents that increase cGMP (sodium nitroprusside or with 1mM 8-Bromo-cGMP) was without effect. The inhibition by prostacyclin was dose dependent, with an IC50 of approximately 3nM, corresponding to the dose range necessary to inhibit other platelet activation processes. These results demonstrate a novel pathway by which agents which raise cAMP may inhibit platelet signal transduction and differential mechanism of action between compounds which raise cAMP and those which elevate cGMP. © 1990.
