In the platelet, ATP-gated P2X(I) receptors have been reported to amplify functional responses to collagen, however the relative importance of early Ca2+ mobilisation events is unknown. We now report that selective desensitisation of P2X(I) receptor activity leads to a major reduction in the initial intracellular Ca2+ responses to a wide range of collagen concentrations (0.25-2 mu g ml(-1)). Peak [Ca2+], increases were reduced to 8.5 and 55% of control, and the maximum rate of rise was reduced to 12 and 33% of control,at low and high collagen concentrations, respectively. This P2X(I)-dependent acceleration and enhancement of collagen-stimulated Ca2+ responses was not observed in the absence of extracellular Ca2+. These results demonstrate a major role for ATP-gated Ca2+ influx in the early collagen-evoked Ca2+ signals and can at least partly explain the important contribution of P2X(I) receptors to arterial thrombosis.
