Tetraspanin superfamily member CD151 associates with integrin aIIbß₃ and plays critical roles in regulation of thrombus growth and stability in vivo. The possible functional relationship between P2Y₁₂ and CD151 in a molecular cluster in platelets may affect thrombus formation. Hence our aim was to investigate the physical and functional requirements for this association in platelets. Our investigations reveal a specific and constitutive association between CD151 and P2Y₁₂ receptor in human platelets shown by immunoprecipitation/western blot studies and by flow cytometry. Specifically, the prominent association involves CD151 with P2Y₁₂ oligomers, and to a lesser extent P2Y₁₂ monomers. This association is not altered by platelet aggregation induced by different agonists. There is also a distinct complex of tetraspanin CD151 with ADP purinergic receptor P2Y₁₂ but not P2Y₁. P2Y₁₂ oligomer interaction with CD151 is selective as compared to other tetraspanins. To investigate the functional relationship between these receptors in platelets we used wild-type or CD151 knockout (KO) mice treated with either PBS or 50 mg/kg clopidogrel. CD151 KO mice treated with clopidogrel exhibited synergy in delayed kinetics of clot retraction, in PAR-4 and collagen-mediated platelet aggregation, platelet spreading on fibrinogen and without restricting cAMP inhibition. Clopidogrel treated CD151 KO arterioles showed smaller and less stable thrombi with increased tendency to embolise ex vivo and in vivo. These studies demonstrate a complementary role between CD151 and P2Y₁₂ receptor in platelets in regulating thrombus growth and stability.]]> Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:13:56 AEDT ]]> Assessment of potential drug and gene interactions for cardiovascular and antidepressant drugs from high-throughput genotyping data in a community cohort of older Australians https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:33547 Mon 23 Sep 2019 13:31:50 AEST ]]> Clopidogrel Administration Impairs Post-Stroke Learning and Memory Recovery in Mice https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:50905 Mon 13 Nov 2023 08:50:41 AEDT ]]>
