Both thrombin and collagen induced the phosphorylation of tyrosine in numerous proteins in platelets, with collagen causing the phosphorylation of an additional 40 kDa protein. Thrombin-induced phosphorylation was markedly inhibited when cAMP was elevated with iloprost. Iloprost or the combination of iloprost, inhibitors of positive feedback and cytochalasin D also partially inhibited collagen-induced phosphorylation. By contrast, iloprost had no effect on phosphorylation induced by collagen in the presence of inhibitors of positive feedback by released ADP, TxA2 and fibrinogen and in platelets containing BAPTA to prevent increases in cytosolic Ca2+. The results indicate that collagen-induced tyrosine phosphorylation may be a fundamental pathway in hemostasis which can function even when platelet cAMP is elevated.

D003402	Creatine Kinase	A transferase that catalyzes formation of PHOSPHOCREATINE from ATP + CREATINE. The reaction stores ATP energy as phosphocreatine. Three cytoplasmic ISOENZYMES have been identified in human tissues: the MM type from SKELETAL MUSCLE, the MB type from myocardial tissue and the BB type from nervous tissue as well as a mitochondrial isoenzyme. Macro-creatine kinase refers to creatine kinase complexed with other serum proteins.
