- A delayed rectifier voltage-gated K+ channel (Kv) represents the largest ionic conductance of platelets and megakaryocytes, but is undefined at the molecular level. Quantitative RT-PCR of all known Kv alpha and ancillary subunits showed that only Kv1.3 (KCNA3) is substantially expressed in human platelets. Furthermore, megakaryocytes from Kv1.3-/- mice or from wild-type mice exposed to the Kv1.3 blocker margatoxin completely lacked Kv currents and displayed substantially depolarised resting membrane potentials. In human platelets, margatoxin reduced the P2X(1)- and thromboxaneA(2) receptor-evoked [Ca2+](i) increases and delayed the onset of store-operated Ca2+ influx. Megakaryocyte development was normal in Kv1.3-/- mice, but the platelet count was increased, consistent with a role of Kv1.3 in apoptosis or decreased platelet activation. We conclude that Kv1.3 forms the Kv channel of the platelet and megakaryocyte, which sets the resting membrane potential, regulates agonist-evoked Ca2+ increases and influences circulating platelet numbers.
