G proteins play a major role in signal transduction upon platelet activation, We have previously reported a patient with impaired agonist-induced aggregation, secretion, arachidonate release, and Ca2+ mobilization, Present studies demonstrated that platelet phospholipase A(2) (cytosolic and membrane) activity in the patient was normal, Receptor-mediated activation of glycoprotein (GP) IIb-IIa complex measured by flow cytometry using antibody PAC-I was diminished despite normal amounts of GPIIb-IIIa on platelets. Ca2+ release induced by guanosine 5'-[gamma-thio]triphosphate (GTP[gamma S]) was diminished in the patient's platelets, suggesting a defect distal to agonist receptors, GTPase activity (a function of alpha-subunit) in platelet membranes was normal in resting state but was diminished compared with normal subjects on stimulation with thrombin, platelet-activating factor, or the thromboxane A(2) analog U46619. Binding of S-35-labeled GTP[gamma S] to platelet membranes was decreased under both basal and thrombin-stimulated states, Iloprost (a stable prostaglandin I-2 analog) -induced rise in cAMP (mediated by G alpha(s)) and its inhibition (mediated by G alpha(i)) by thrombin in the patient's platelet membranes were normal, Immunoblot analysis of G alpha subunits in the patient's platelet membranes showed a decrease in G alpha(q) (
