| Abstract | The novel class of protein kinase C (nPKC) isoform η is expressed in platelets, but not much is known about its activation and function. In this study, we investigated the mechanism of activation and functional implications of nPKCη using pharmacological and gene knock-out approaches. nPKCη was phosphorylated (at Thr-512) in a time- and concentration-dependent manner by 2MeSADP. Pretreatment of platelets with MRS-2179, a P2Y1 receptor antagonist, or YM-254890, a Gq blocker, abolished 2MeSADP-induced phosphorylation of nPKCη. Similarly, ADP failed to activate nPKCη in platelets isolated from P2Y1 and Gq knock-out mice. However, pretreatment of platelets with P2Y12 receptor antagonist, AR-C69331MX did not interfere with ADP-induced nPKCη phosphorylation. In addition, when platelets were activated with 2MeSADP under stirring conditions, although nPKCη was phosphorylated within 30 s by ADP receptors, it was also dephosphorylated by activated integrin αIIbβ3 mediated outside-in signaling. Moreover, in the presence of SC-57101, a αIIbβ3 receptor antagonist, nPKCη dephosphorylation was inhibited. Furthermore, in murine platelets lacking PP1cγ, a catalytic subunit of serine/threonine phosphatase, αIIbβ3 failed to dephosphorylate nPKCη. Thus, we conclude that ADP activates nPKCη via P2Y1 receptor and is subsequently dephosphorylated by PP1γ phosphatase activated by αIIbβ3 integrin. In addition, pretreatment of platelets with η-RACK antagonistic peptides, a specific inhibitor of nPKCη, inhibited ADP-induced thromboxane generation. However, these peptides had no affect on ADP-induced aggregation when thromboxane generation was blocked. In summary, nPKCη positively regulates agonist-induced thromboxane generation with no effects on platelet aggregation. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
