Thrombin activates protease-activated receptor-1 (PAR-1) by cleavage of the amino terminus to unmask a tethered ligand. Although peptide analogs can activate PAR-1, we show that the functional responses mediated via PAR-1 differ between the agonists. Thrombin caused endothelial monolayer permeability and mobilized intracellular calcium with EC₅₀ values of 0.1 and 1.7 nM, respectively. The opposite order of activation was observed for agonist peptide (SFLLRN-CONH₂ or TFLLRNKPDK) activation. The addition of inactivated thrombin did not affect agonist peptide signaling, suggesting that the differences in activation mechanisms are intramolecular in origin. Although activation of PAR-1 or PAR-2 by agonist peptides induced calcium mobilization, only PAR-1 activation affected barrier function. Induced barrier permeability is likely to be G_12/13-mediated as chelation of G_q-mediated intracellular calcium with BAPTA-AM, pertussis toxin inhibition of G_i/o, or GM6001 inhibition of matrix metalloproteinase had no effect, whereas Y-27632 inhibition of the G_12/13-mediated Rho kinase abrogated the response. Similarly, calcium mobilization is G_q-mediated and independent of G_i/o and G_12/13 because pertussis toxin Y-27632 and had no effect, whereas U-73122 inhibition of phospholipase C- blocked the response. It is therefore likely that changes in permeability reflect G_12/13 activation, and changes in calcium reflect G_q activation, implying that the pharmacological differences between agonists are likely caused by the ability of the receptor to activate G_12/13 or G_q. This functional selectivity was characterized quantitatively by a mathematical model describing each step leading to Rho activation and/or calcium mobilization. This model provides an estimate that peptide activation alters receptor/G protein binding to favor G_q activation over G_12/13 by 800-fold.
