Platelet aggregation induced by ADP and 11 12 13 collagen was significantly reduced, while ristocetin aggregation was normal. Integrin αIIbβ3 was partially 14 15 16 activated in a resting status, but platelet expression of αIIbβ3 was downregulated. Functional analysis 17 18 19 using a cell line showed spontaneous phosphorylation of FAK in αIIb/β3 (p.T720del)-transfected 293T 20 21 22 cells in suspension conditions. Abnormal cytoplasmic protrusions, membrane ruffling, and cytoplasmic 23 24 25 localization of αIIbβ3 were observed in αIIb/β3 (p.T720del)-transfected CHO cells. Such morphological 26 27 28 29 changes were reversed by treatment with an FAK inhibitor. These findings imply spontaneous, but partial, 30 31 32 activation of αIIbβ3 followed by phosphorylation of FAK as the initial mechanism of abnormal 33 34 35 thrombopoiesis. Internalization and decreased surface expression of αIIbβ3 would contribute to 36 37 38 aggregation dysfunction. We reviewed the literature of congenital macrothrombocytopenia associated 39 40 41 with heterozygous ITGA2B or ITGB3 mutations. Reported mutations were highly clustered at the 42 43 44 45 membrane proximal region of αIIbβ3, which affected the critical interaction between αIIb R995 and β3 46 47 48 D723, resulting in a constitutionally active form of the αIIbβ3 complex. Macrothrombocytopenia caused 49 50 51 by a heterozygous activating mutation of ITGA2B or ITGB3 at the membrane proximal region forms a 52 53 54 distinct entity of rare congenital thrombocytopenia. 55 56 57 58 59 60 61 4 62 63 64 65 1 2 3 Keywords 4 5 6 Congenital macrothrombocytopenia, FAK phosphorylation, ITGB3, integrin αIIbβ3, platelet 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 Introduction 14 15 16 Congenital macrothrombocytopenia is a group of rare platelet disorders characterized by a decreased 17 18 19 platelet count with macrothrombocytes showing a varied bleeding tendency. Mutations causing 20 21 22 congenital macrothrombocytopenia have been reported in more than 12 genes including MYH9, which is 23 24 25 responsible for autosomal dominant MYH9 disorders, and GP1BA, GP1BB and GP9, which are 26 27 28 29 responsible for Bernard-Soulier syndrome [1-4]. Variants of integrin αIIb, coded by ITGA2B, and integrin 30 31 32 β3, coded by ITGB3, have also been identified in patients with congenital macrothrombocytopenia [5-12]. 33 34 35 The integrin αIIbβ3 complex is expressed on the surface of platelets and megakaryocytes. αIIbβ3 plays 36 37 38 essential roles in the processes of platelet aggregation, thrombus formation, and thrombopoiesis through 39 40 41 actin remodeling [13-15]. These reported variants are associated with spontaneous, but partial, activation 42 43 44 45 of αIIbβ3 and macrothrombocytopenia with aggregation dysfunction of platelets. The molecular 46 47 48 consequences after spontaneous αIIbβ3 activation contributing to macrothrombocytopenia and 49 50 51 aggregation dysfunction have not been fully elucidated. Here, we report a novel heterozygous ITGB3 52 53 54 p.T720del variatnt in a pedigree of macrothrombocytopenia and its causative mecahnisms. We reviewed 55 56 57 58 59 60 61 5 62 63 64 65 1 2 3 the literature and illustrated the distinct clinical entity of this rare congenital macrothrombocytopenia with 4 5 6 platelet aggregation dysfunction. 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 Materials and Methods 14 15 16 Patients 17 18 19 The patients were a 56-year-old Japanese woman (i2 in Fig 1A) and her two sons (ii2 and ii3 in Fig 20 21 22 1A). They had no bleeding tendencies and near-normal bleeding time evaluated by Duke’s method (Table 23 24 25 1). Hematological examination revealed mildly decreased platelet counts (58-75 x 109/L) with an increase 26 27 28 29 of mean platelet volume (13.4-14.5 fl, Table 1). 30 31 32 Written informed consent was obtained from all family members in accordance with the Declaration of 33 34 35 Helsinki. This study was approved by the Institutional Review Board of Hokkaido University Faculty of 36 37 38 Medicine. 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 Genetic analysis 46 47 48 Genomic DNA was obtained from the three affected family members (i2, ii2, and ii3 in Fig 1A) and a 49 50 51 non-affected member (ii1 in Fig 1A) in the pedigree. Whole exome sequencing (WES) was performed by 52 53 54 HiSeq1500/2500 (Illumina, San Diego, CA) using SureSelect - Human ALL ExomeV6 (Agilent 55 56 57 Technologies, Santa Clara, CA). The ITGB3 gene was amplified using the primer set 5’- 58 59 60 61 6 62 63 64 65 1 2 3 CTCCTGCTTCTTCACAACC-3’ and 5’-GGTCTGAGACTCTTAAGTGGAAG-3’. The identified 4 5 6 ITGB3 p.T720del variatnt was confirmed by direct sequencing using the primer 5’- 7 8 9 10 CTCCTGCTTCTTCACAACC-3’. 11 12 13 14 15 16 Structural analysis 17 18 19 Interaction between αIIb and β3 molecules was evaluated by in silico model construction using 20 21 22 SWISS-MODEL and Cn3D 4.3.1. [16,17]. 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 Platelet glycoprotein analysis 30 31 32 Surface expression of αIIb, β3, αIIbβ3, and GPIb was evaluated by mean fluorescent intensity (MFI) of 33 34 35 CD41 (5B12; Dako, Glostrup, Denmark), CD61 (SZ21; Beckman-Coulter, Fullerton, CA), CD41 (P2; 36 37 38 Beckman-Coulter, Fullerton, CA), and CD42b (AN51; Dako, Glostrup, Denmark), respectively. 39 40 41 The activation status of αIIbβ3 was evaluated by binding of the ligand-mimetic antibody PAC-1 (BD 42 43 44 45 Biosciences, Franklin Lakes, NJ) with or without 1 mM of an Arg-Gly-Asp-Ser (RGDS) mimetic 46 47 48 antagonist (Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO) [18]. Platelets were discriminated from other blood cells by 49 50 51 GPIb staining. MFI ratio was calculated by dividing MFI of PAC-1 binding on platelets by that of PAC-1 52 53 54 binding in the presence of the RGDS mimetic antagonist. MFI ratio was also calculated by dividing MFI 55 56 57 of PAC-1 binding on platelets in the presence of 1 µM adenosine diphosphate (ADP) by MFI of PAC-1 58 59 60 61 7 62 63 64 65 1 2 3 binding in the absence of ADP. Activation index is defined as (Fx-Fmin) / (Fmax-Fmin). Fx is the MFI of 4 5 6 PAC-1 binding to the platelets, F is the MFI of PAC-1 binding in the presence of the RGDS mimetic 7 min 8 9 10 antagonist, and Fmax is the MFI of PAC-1 binding in the presence of 200 mM phorbol-12-myristate-13- 11 12 13 acetate (PMA; Wako, Osaka, Japan).
