The platelet content of PPi is 1.90 +/- mumol/10(11) platelets (S.E.M., n = 19) or about 10.5 nmol/mg of protein, several hundred times that found for rat liver. Some 80% of this PPi is secreted by platelets treated with thrombin with a time course and dose-response relationship similar to secretion of ATP, ADP and 5-hydroxytryptamine (serotonin) from the platelet dense granules. During platelet aggregation induced by ADP and adrenaline, substantial amounts of PPi were secreted, but no release of acid hydrolases was observed. Subcellular-fractionation studies showed that the PPi is highly enriched in the same fraction that contains the storage organelles which store ATP, ADP, Ca2+ and 5-hydroxytryptamine. Inorganic pyrophosphatase was present mainly in the soluble fraction and in the mitochondria. Secretion studies done with platelets prelabelled with [32P]Pi showed that the sequestered PPi was relatively metabolically inactive, as is the ATP and ADP in the storage organelles. The possible participation of PPi in the formation of a bivalent-cation-nucleotide complex associated with amine storage is discussed.
