Abstract：
:When human blood platelets spread on a substratum they increase their surface area as much as 4-fold. We investigated the mechanism of spreading by light microscopy and by scanning and transmission electron microscopy. Contact of a platelet with a glass surface induces formation of thin extensions which spread out over the substratum. These extensions resemble the actin-containing microspikes and lammelipodia of tissue cells in culture and appear to be drawn from the peripheral cortical layer associated with the plasma membrane. If platelets are initially labeled on their external surface with cationic ferritin or lentil-conjugated gold particles and then allowed to spread, the labels are retained in the central region, or granulomere. Proteins released by the spreading platelet--fibronectin and fibrinogen--also remain in this central unspread region. Peripheral regions of spread platelet surface (hyalomere) were unlabeled following the above procedures but could be labeled with cationic ferritin or lentil-conjugated gold provided these were applied after spreading was completed. These markers are cleared with time from the periphery, moving centripetally to accumulate at the granulomere. We suggest, on the basis of these observations, that platelets spread onto a substratum by a closely similar mechanism to that used by cells such as fibroblasts. In both cases the spreading involves the peripheral actin cortex and is accompanied by a continual centripetal movement of surface components--a "membrane flow"--which continues even after spreading is completed.
