Platelet-collagen adhesion: inhibition by a monoclonal antibody that binds glycoprotein IIb

PJ Shadle, MH Ginsberg, EF Plow and SH Barondes

To identify platelet surface structures involved in adhesion to collagen, the effect of 16 murine antiplatelet membrane hybridoma antibodies were tested in a defined, in vitro assay. Four of these antibodies inhibited platelet-collagen adhesion and reacted with a polypeptide with Mr approximately 125,000, as determined by immunoblots after gel electrophoresis under reducing conditions. Through detailed studies with one of these antibodies, the monoclonal antibody PMI-1, the relevant antigen was identified as platelet glycoprotein IIb alpha, based upon (a) co-migration with this glycoprotein in two-dimensional gel electrophoresis and (b) co-purification by immunoaffinity chromatography with a protein with apparent Mr identical to that of glycoprotein III, under conditions in which glycoproteins IIb and III form a complex. Univalent antibody fragments prepared from monoclonal antibody PMI-1 inhibited greater than 80% of platelet-collagen adhesion, and inhibition was completely blocked by the immunopurified antigen. These results indicate that glycoprotein IIb participates in some aspect of platelet-collagen adhesion. In contrast, the purified antigen only partially neutralized a polyclonal antiserum that blocked platelet-collagen adhesion, to a maximum of approximately 25%, at saturating antigen concentrations. Thus, by these immunological criteria, glycoprotein IIb is not the only molecule involved in this process.
