Human platelets incubated with [32P]Pi and [3H]arachidonate were transferred to a Pi-free Tyrode's solution by gel filtration. The labile phosphoryl groups of ATP and ADP as well as Pi in the metabolic pool of these platelets had equal specific radioactivity which was identical to that of[32P]phosphatidate formed during treatment of the cells with thrombin for 5 min. Therefore, the 32P radioactivity of phosphatidate was a true, relative measure for its mass. The thrombin-induced formation of[32P]-phosphatidate had the same time course and dose-response relationships as the concurrent secretion of acid hydrolases. 125I-alpha-Thrombin bound maximally to the platelets within 13s and was rapidly dissociated from the cells by hirudin; readdition of excess 125I-alpha-thrombin caused rapid rebinding of radioligand. This binding-dissociation-rebinding sequence was paralleled by a concerted start-stop-restart of phosphatidate formation and acid hydrolase secretion. [3H]Phosphatidylinositol disappearance was initiated upon binding but little affected by thrombin dissociation and rebinding. ATP deprivation caused similar changes in the time courses for [32P]-phosphatidate formation and acid hydrolase secretion which were different from those of [3H]phosphatidylinositol disappearance. The metabolic stress did not alter the magnitude (15%) of the initial decrease in phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bis[32P]phosphate, but did abolish the subsequent increase of phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bis[32P]-phosphate in the thrombin-treated platelets. It is concluded that in thrombin-treated platelets (1) phosphatidate synthesis, but not phosphatidylinositol disappearance, is tightly coupled to receptor occupancy and acid hydrolase secretion in platelets, (2) successive phosphorylations to phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate is unlikely to be the main mechanism for phosphatidylinositol disappearance, and (3) only a small fraction (15%) of phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate is susceptible to hydrolysis.
