Farnesol is a catabolite of the cholesterol biosynthetic pathway that preferentially causes apoptosis in tumorigenic cells. Phosphatidylcholine (PC), phosphatidic acid (PA), and diacylglycerol (DAG) were able to prevent induction of apoptosis by farnesol. Primary alcohol inhibition of PC catabolism by phospholipase D augmented farnesol-induced apoptosis. Exogenous PC was unable to prevent the increase in farnesol-induced apoptosis by primary alcohols, whereas DAG was protective. Farnesol-mediated apoptosis was prevented by transformation with a plasmid coding for the PA phosphatase LPP3, but not by an inactive LPP3 point mutant. Farnesol did not directly inhibit LPP3 PA phosphatase enzyme activity in an in vitro mixed micelle assay. We propose that farnesol inhibits the action of a DAG pool generated by phospholipase D signal transduction that normally activates an antiapoptotic/pro-proliferative target. 相似文献

Phosphatidic acid (PA) and its phosphorylated derivative diacylglycerol pyrophosphate (DGPP) are lipid molecules that have been implicated in plant cell signaling. In this study we report the rapid but transient accumulation of PA and DGPP in suspension-cultured tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum) cells treated with the general elicitors, N,N',N",N"'-tetraacetylchitotetraose, xylanase, and the flagellin-derived peptide flg22. To determine whether PA originated from the activation of phospholipase D or from the phosphorylation of diacylglycerol (DAG) by DAG kinase, a strategy involving differential radiolabeling with [(32)P]orthophosphate was used. DAG kinase was found to be the dominant producer of PA that was subsequently metabolized to DGPP. A minor but significant role for phospholipase D could only be detected when xylanase was used as elicitor. Since PA formation was correlated with the high turnover of polyphosphoinositides, we hypothesize that elicitor treatment activates phospholipase C to produce DAG, which in turn acts as substrate for DAG kinase. The potential roles of PA and DGPP in plant defense signaling are discussed. 相似文献

Phosphatidylethanolamine and phosphatidylcholine are sources of diacylglycerol in ras-transformed NIH 3T3 fibroblasts 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Ras-transformation of cells is accompanied by an increase of the level of diacylglycerol (DAG), which participates in the signal transduction pathways. DAG could be generated from phospholipids either by activation of phospholipase C or by a more complex pathway involving phospholipase D and phosphatidate phosphohydrolase. To clarify which phospholipids produce DAG and which pathways are involved, we examined the DAG generating enzyme activities, using phosphatidylcholine (PC), phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) and phosphatidylinositol (PI) as substrates. The study showed that the breakdown of PC and more markedly of PE by phospholipases C and D was stimulated in membranes from ras-transformed cells. Phosphatidate phosphohydrolase activity was also elevated in oncogene-expressing cells. The increase in glycerol uptake was most pronounced in cells given PE, followed by PC. The fatty acid analysis revealed apparent similarities between the acyl chains of PE and DAG only in the transformed cells. These findings suggest that PE is a source of DAG in ras-fibroblasts but does not rule out the role of PC in DAG production, due to the activation of the PC-specific phospholipases C and D. 相似文献

Activation of cytosolic phospholipase A2 is a typical signal transduction reaction in animal cells and occurs in plants in response to auxin, elicitors and wounding. Exogenously added fluorescent bis-BODIPY-phosphatidylcholine was taken up and hydrolysed by a cellular phospholipase A2. Rapid activation of a phospholipase A2 by auxin in suspension-cultured parsley ( Petrosilenum crispum L.) and soybean ( Glycine max L.) cells was shown by detection and quantification of fluorescent reaction products of phospholipase A2. Hormone-triggered fluorescent fatty acid accumulation could be detected as early as 5 min. Auxins at 2 μM or higher concentrations activated phospholipase A2 and fluorescent fatty acids accumulated 1.1- to threefold after 90–120 min, depending on the auxin concentration. Fluorescent lysolipid did not accumulate up to 150 μM auxin. Known inhibitors of phospholipase A2 inhibited hormone-dependent fluorescent fatty acid accumulation in cell cultures and, previously, elongation growth in etiolated zucchini hypocotyl segments ( Scherer & Arnold (1997 ) Planta 202, 462–469). When lipids were labeled by [14C]-choline and [14C]-ethanolamine the corresponding lysophospholipids could be quantified in cell extracts. Radioactive lysophospholipids accumulated as rapidly as 1–2 min after auxin treatment but only at concentrations well above 100 μM auxin. We hypothesize that phospholipase A2 activation is an early intermediate step between receptor and downstream responses. We hypothesize that fatty acid(s) could be second messengers in several auxin functions, especially in cell elongation. Lysophospholipids seem to be indicators or second messengers for stress caused by high auxin concentrations or may have different auxin-linked functions and are also known to accumulate during elicitor action. 相似文献

Signal-activated phospholipase A2 cleavesphosphatidylcholine (PC) into free fatty acids and LPC, respectively.Using bis-BODIPY-PC as an indicator substrate for phospholipaseA2 which is taken up by parsley cells, active auxins atconcentrations as low as 1 M and a fungal elicitor induced fattyacid-accumulation. Nordihydroguajaretic acid inhibited the accumulationof fatty acid induced by the elicitor. In addition to this, theelicitor, but not auxin, decreased the pool size of diacylglycerol,which seemed to originate from a PC-splitting phospholipase C, whichwould be a new enzyme in plant signal transduction. However, thiselicitor is known to rapidly increase cytosolic calcium in parsley cellsand this activates phospholipase C. Thus, activation of phospholipase Cshould lead to an increase of diacylglycerol and not to a decrease whichmight indicate a discrepancy between animal and plant phospholipidsignal transduction. 相似文献

The diacylglycerol (DAG) signal generated from membrane phospholipids by hormone-activated phospholipases is attenuated by mechanisms that include lipolysis or phospholipid resynthesis. To determine whether the DAG signal might also be terminated by incorporation of DAG into triacylglycerol (TAG), we studied the direct formation of TAG from endogenous DAG generated by bacterial phospholipase C (PLC). When Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells prelabeled with [(14)C]oleate were treated with PLC from Clostridium perfringens for 6 h, [(14)C]phospholipid decreased 15% and labeled TAG increased 60%. This transfer of (14)C label was even greater when the cells were simultaneously exposed to PLC and 100 microM oleic acid. PLC as well as oleate treatment concomitantly increased the TAG mass within the cell. Moreover, when phospholipids were prelabeled with [(3)H]glycerol, a subsequent increase in [(3)H]TAG indicated that an intact DAG moiety was channeled into the TAG structure. Incubating CHO cells with the diacylglycerol kinase inhibitor R59022 enhanced the formation of TAG from phospholipids hydrolyzed by PLC or by PLC in the presence of 100 microM oleate, but not by incubation with oleate alone, indicating that the DAG released from plasma membrane phospholipids does not require the formation of a phosphatidic acid precursor for TAG synthesis. Similarly, the diacylglycerol lipase inhibitor RHC 80267 did not alter TAG synthesis from plasma membrane DAG, further supporting direct incorporation of DAG into TAG.These studies indicate that DAG derived from plasma membrane phospholipid is largely used for TAG formation, and support the view that this mechanism can terminate DAG signals. The studies also suggest that a transport mechanism exists to move plasma membrane-derived DAG to the endoplasmic reticulum.-Igal, R. A., J. M. Caviglia, I. N. T. de Gómez Dumm, and R. A. Coleman. Diacylglycerol generated in CHO cell plasma membrane by phospholipase C is used for triacylglycerol synthesis. J. Lipid Res. 2001. 42: 88;-95. 相似文献

Lipo-chitooligosaccharides (Nod factors) are produced by symbiotic Rhizobium sp. bacteria to elicit Nod responses on their legume hosts. One of the earliest responses is the formation of phosphatidic acid (PA), a novel second messenger in plant cells. Remarkably, pathogens have also been reported to trigger the formation of PA in nonlegume plants. To investigate how host plants can distinguish between symbionts and pathogens, the effects of Nod factor and elicitors (chitotetraose and xylanase) on the formation of PA were investigated in suspension-cultured alfalfa (Medicago sativa) cells. Theoretically, PA can be synthesized via two signaling pathways, i.e. via phospholipase D (PLD) and via phospholipase C in combination with diacylglycerol (DAG) kinase. Therefore, a strategy involving differential radiolabeling with [(32)P]orthophosphate was used to determine the contribution of each pathway to PA formation. In support, PLD activity was specifically measured by using the ability of the enzyme to transfer the phosphatidyl group of its substrate to a primary alcohol. In practice, Nod factor, chitotetraose, and xylanase induced the formation of PA and its phosphorylated product DAG pyrophosphate within 2 min of treatment. However, whereas phospholipase C and DAG kinase were activated during treatment with all three different compounds, PLD was only activated by Nod factor. No evidence was obtained for the activation of phospholipase A(2). 相似文献

The metabolism and intracellular distribution of a fluorescent analog of phosphatidylinositol (PI), 1,2-[oleoyl,N-(6-[(7-nitrobenz-2-oxa-1,3-diazo-4-yl) aminocaproyl)]-PI (C6-NBD-PI), was examined in monolayer cultures of Swiss 3T3 cells following its insertion into the plasma membrane. Evidence is presented that the exogenously supplied C6-NBD-PI was hydrolyzed by a calcium-dependent PI-specific phospholipase C (PI-PLC) at the external cell surface and that this PI-specific phospholipase C may play a role in the density-dependent inhibition of cell growth: (i) When confluent monolayer cultures were incubated with C6-NBD-PI for 60 min at 7 degrees C, the lipid spontaneously transferred to the cells, and prominent labeling of intracellular membranes was observed. Lipid extraction and analysis demonstrated that more than 60% of the fluorescent lipid in these cells was fluorescent diacylglycerol (DAG). However, when the corresponding fluorescent analogs of phosphatidylcholine or phosphatidylethanolamine were used, the fluorescent lipids readily transferred to cells, but no hydrolysis to fluorescent DAG occurred. (ii) Both intracellular labeling and hydrolysis of C6-NBD-PI to -DAG were inhibited in the presence of [ethylenebis(oxyethylenenitrilo)]tetraacetic acid. (iii) When myo-[2-3H]inositol-labeled C6-NBD-PI was incubated with cells, [3H]inositol phosphate was released into the incubation medium, but no water-soluble 3H-labeled products were found associated with the cells. (iv) The level of C6-NBD-PI hydrolysis increased dramatically with increasing density of 3T3 cells in monolayer culture. 相似文献

Ergosterol elicits oxidative burst in tobacco cells via phospholipase A2 and protein kinase C signal pathway. 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

Ergosterol, a typical fungal sterol, induced in tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L. cv. Xanthi) suspension cells the synthesis of reactive oxygen species and alkalization of the external medium that are dependent on the mobilization of calcium from internal stores. We used specific inhibitors to elucidate the signal pathway triggered by ergosterol compared with cryptogein, a proteinaceous elicitor of Phytophthora cryptogea. Herbimycin A and genistein, inhibitors of tyrosine protein kinases, had no effect on the oxidative burst and pH changes induced by both elicitors. Similarly, H-89, an inhibitor of protein kinase A, had no effect on the induction of these defense reactions. However, the response to both elicitors was completely blocked by NPC-15437, a specific inhibitor of animal protein kinase C (PKC). The responses induced by cryptogein but not those induced by ergosterol were inhibited by U73122 and neomycin, inhibitors of phospholipase C (PLC). On the other hand, the activity of phospholipase A2 (PLA2) measured using a fluorogenic substrate was stimulated by ergosterol and not by cholesterol and cryptogein. A specific inhibitor of PLA2, arachidonic acid trifluoromethyl ketone (AACOCF3), inhibited the pathway stimulated by ergosterol but not that induced by cryptogein. These results suggest that the cryptogein-induced signal pathway leading to the oxidative burst and DeltapH changes includes PLC and PKC, whereas this response induced by ergosterol includes PLA2 and PKC. 相似文献

A nonradioactive assay for the investigation of phospholipase D (PLD) activity in cardiac membranes has been developed. A fluorescent derivative of phosphatidylcholine [2-decanoyl-1-(O-(11-(4,4-difluoro-5,7-dimethyl-4-bora-3a, 4a-diaza-s-indacene-3proprionyl)amino) undecyl) sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine] was utilized as substrate in an in vitro PLD-catalyzed transphosphatidylation reaction utilizing ethanol as second substrate. Unreacted phosphatidylcholine and the products of phospholipase activity (PEtOH, phosphatidylethanol; PA, phosphatidic acid; DAG, diacylglycerol) were separated by a binary gradient HPLC system and detected by fluorometry. The detection limit of this assay is approximately 0.6 pmol PEtOH. The reaction proceeded at a linear rate for up to 45 min and increased linearly with increasing amounts of rat cardiac membrane protein in a range of 0.625 microg up to at least 25 microg. In the presence of potassium fluoride, formation of fluorescent PA increased at the expense of DAG generation, demonstrating the presence of PA phosphohydrolase activity in rat cardiac membranes. PEtOH formation was unchanged in the presence of the PA phosphohydrolase inhibitor, indicating that the phosphatidylalcohol is not subject to further metabolism by this enzyme. Activation of protein kinase C by phorbol ester significantly increased PLD activity in cardiac membranes. This assay proved to be sensitive for accurate and rapid assessment of PLD activity in cardiac membranes permitting further characterization of the regulation of PLD signal transduction in the heart. 相似文献

The rapid increase in protein synthesis that occurs on addition of insulin (1 mU/ml) to stepped-down 3T3 cells was blocked by pre-incubation of the cells with pertussis toxin. Cholera toxin on the other hand stimulated protein synthesis and this effect was insensitive to actinomycin D and inhibited by pro-treatment of the cells with phorbol dibutyrate to deplete cell protein kinase C. Insulin was found to cause a rapid and transient increase in diacylglycerol (DAG) synthesis. The insulin-induced increase in diacylglycerol was blocked by pertussis toxin. Exogenous DAG (10 M) stimulated protein synthesis within 1 hour. The results suggest that insuIin stimulates ribosomal activity through a signal mechanism that involves a G-protein mediated activation of phospholipase C to increase DAG levels. 相似文献

The involvement of endogenous diacylglycerol production in the stimulation of phosphatidylcholine synthesis by exogenous phospholipase C was examined using a neuroblastoma (LA-N-2) cell line. Phospholipase C treatment (0.1 unit/ml) of intact cells stimulated CTP:phosphocholine cytidylyltransferase activity significantly more effectively than did maximally effective concentrations of the synthetic diacylglycerol sn-1,2-dioctanoylglycerol (1 mM). When added to cells together with phospholipase C, oleic acid, but not dioctanoylglycerol, further increased cytidylyltransferase activity with respect to phospholipase C treatment alone, indicating that the enzyme was not maximally activated by the lipase. This suggests that the lack of additivity of diacylglycerol and phospholipase C reflects a common mechanism of action. The time course of activation of cytidylyltransferase by phospholipase C paralleled that of [3H]diacylglycerol production in cells prelabeled for 24 h with [3H]oleic acid. Diacylglycerol mass was similarly increased. Significant elevations of [3H]oleic acid and total fatty acids occurred later than did the increases in cytidylyltransferase activity and diacylglycerol levels. No significant reduction in total or [3H]phosphatidylcholine was elicited by this concentration of phospholipase C, but higher concentrations (0.5 unit/ml) significantly reduced phosphatidylcholine content. The stimulation of cytidylyltransferase activity by phospholipase C or dioctanoylglycerol was also associated with enhanced incorporation of [methyl-14C]choline into phosphatidylcholine. Dioctanoylglycerol was more effective than phospholipase C at stimulating the formation of [14C]phosphatidylcholine, and the effects of the two treatments were additive. However, further analysis revealed that dioctanoylglycerol served as a precursor for [14C]dioctanoylphosphatidylcholine as well as an activator of cytidylyltransferase; and when corrections were made for this effect, the apparent additivity disappeared. The results indicate that the generation of diacylglycerol by exogenous phospholipase C (and possibly the subsequent production of fatty acids via diacylglycerol metabolism) activates cytidylyltransferase activity in neuronal cells under conditions in which membrane phosphatidylcholine content is not measurably reduced. 相似文献

The lymphocyte function-associated antigen-1 receptor costimulates plasma membrane Ras via phospholipase D2 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Ras activation as a consequence of antigen receptor (T-cell receptor; TCR) engagement on T lymphocytes is required for T-cell development, selection and function. Lymphocyte function-associated antigen-1 (LFA-1) mediates lymphocyte adhesion, stabilization of the immune synapse and bidirectional signalling. Using a fluorescent biosensor we found that TCR activation with or without costimulation of CD28 led to activation of Ras only on the Golgi apparatus, whereas costimulation with LFA-1 induced Ras activation on both the Golgi and the plasma membrane. Ras activation on both compartments required RasGRP1, an exchange factor regulated by calcium and diacylglycerol (DAG), but phospholipase C (PLC) activity was required only for activation on the Golgi. Engagement of LFA-1 increased DAG levels at the plasma membrane by stimulating phospholipase D (PLD). PLD2 and phosphatidic acid phosphatase (PAP) were required for Ras activation on the plasma membrane. Thus, LFA-1 acts through PLD2 to reshape the pattern of Ras activation downstream of the TCR. 相似文献

Background
Numerous investigations demonstrate a novel role of thyroid hormone as a modulator of signal transduction. Protein kinase C (PKC) is critical to the mechanism by which thyroid hormones potentiate both the antiviral and immunomodulatory actions of IFNγ in different cells and regulate the exchange of signalling phospholipids in hepatocytes. Because nothing is known about accumulation of PKC modulator - diacylglycerol in cells treated with T4, we examined the nongenomic effect of thyroid hormones on DAG formation and phospholipase activation in liver cells. 相似文献16.

Phospholipid signalling is mediated by phospholipid breakdown products generated by phospholipases. The enzymes from animals and plants generating known or potential lipid-derived second messengers are compared. Plants possess a phospholipase C and a phospholipase A2 both of which are agonist-activated. These agonists (auxin, elicitors, perhaps others) bind to the external surface of the plasma membrane. The target enzyme for potential plant lipid-derived second messengers is lipid-activated protein kinase but the possibility that other enzymes may be also lipid-modulated should not be precluded.Abbreviations DAG

The Ang II-induced growth of vascular smooth muscle cells involves a phospholipase D-mediated signaling mechanism 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Freeman EJ 《Archives of biochemistry and biophysics》2000,374(2):363-370
Angiotensin (Ang) II acts as a mitogen in vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC) via the activation of multiple signaling cascades, including phospholipase C, tyrosine kinase, and mitogen-activated protein kinase pathways. However, increasing evidence supports signal-activated phospholipases A(2) and D (PLD) as additional mechanisms. Stimulation of PLD results in phosphatidic acid (PA) formation, and PA has been linked to cell growth. However, the direct involvement of PA or its metabolite diacylglycerol (DAG) in Ang II-induced growth is unclear. PLD activity was measured in cultured rat VSMC prelabeled with [(3)H]oleic acid, while the incorporation of [(3)H]thymidine was used to monitor growth. We have previously reported the Ang II-dependent, AT(1)-coupled stimulation of PLD and growth in VSMC. Here, we show that Ang II (100 nM) and exogenous PLD (0.1-100 units/mL; Streptomyces chromofuscus) stimulated thymidine incorporation (43-208% above control). PA (100 nM-1 microM) also increased thymidine incorporation to 135% of control. Propranolol (100 nM-10 microM), which inhibits PA phosphohydrolase, blocked the growth stimulated by Ang II, PLD, or PA by as much as 95%, an effect not shared by other beta-adrenergic antagonists. Propranolol also increased the production of PA in the presence of Ang II by 320% and reduced DAG and arachidonic acid (AA) accumulation. The DAG lipase inhibitor RHC-80267 (1-10 microM) increased Ang II-induced DAG production, while attenuating thymidine incorporation and release of AA. Thus, it appears that activation of PLD, formation of PA, conversion of PA to DAG, and metabolism of DAG comprise an important signaling cascade in Ang II-induced growth of VSMC. 相似文献

The hamster islet B cell line HIT retains the ability to secret insulin in response to glucose and several receptor agonists. We used HIT cells to study the initial signaling events in glucose or receptor agonist-stimulated insulin secretion. Glucose stimulated insulin release from HIT cells in a dose-dependent manner with a half-maximal effect seen already at 1 mM. Insulin release was also stimulated by carbachol in a glucose-dependent manner. Glucose depolarized the HIT cell membrane potential as assessed with the fluorescent probe bisoxonol and raised intracellular Ca2+ as revealed by fura-2 measurements. Using a Mn2+ fura-2 quenching technique, we could show that the rise in intracellular Ca2+ was due to Ca2+ influx following opening of voltage-gated Ca2+ channels. Glucose is thought to increase the diacylglycerol (DAG) content of insulin-secreting cells. However, although HIT cells respond to glucose in terms of insulin secretion, membrane depolarization, and Ca2+ rise, the hexose was unable to increase the proportion of protein kinase C activity associated with membranes. In contrast, the membrane-associated protein kinase C activity increased in HIT cells exposed to the two receptor agonists carbachol and bombesin. Bombesin was shown to generate DAG with the expected fatty acid composition of activators of phospholipase C. Glucose, in contrast, only caused minor increases in DAG containing myristic and palmitic acid without affecting total DAG mass. The failure to detect stimulation of protein kinase C by glucose could be due to both the limited amount and to the different fatty acid composition of the metabolically generated DAG. The latter was in part supported by experiments performed on protein kinase C partially purified from HIT cells. Indeed, 1,2-dipalmitoylglycerol, presumed to be the main DAG species generated by glucose, was only one-third as active as 1,2-dioleoylglycerol and 1-stearoyl-2-arachidonylglycerol in stimulating the isolated enzyme at physiological Ca2+ concentration. It is therefore unlikely that DAG and protein kinase C play a major role in glucose-stimulated insulin secretion. 相似文献

Stimulation of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate phospholipase C activity by phosphatidic acid 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
Phosphatidic acid was a potent activator of the phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PtdIns-P2) phospholipase C activity associated with human platelet membranes. Lysophosphatidic acid was half as active as phosphatidic acid, and shortening the fatty acid chain reduced the effectiveness of the corresponding phosphatidic acid. Compounds lacking either the phosphate group (diacylglycerol or phorbol ester) or the fatty acid (glycerol phosphate) were not activators. When the negative charge was contributed by a carboxyl group (fatty acid or phosphatidylserine), stimulation of phospholipase C was weak but detectable. Structural analogs of phosphatidic acid (lipopolysaccharide, lipid A, and 2,3-diacylglucosamine 1-phosphate) were less effective but also enhanced PtdIns-P2 hydrolysis. Phosphatidic acid potentiated the activation of phospholipase C by alpha-thrombin, chelators, and guanine nucleotides. Phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate and PtdIns-P2 were also effective activators of PtdIns-P2 degradation. Other phospholipids were without effect. The production of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate and diacylglycerol via the activation of phospholipase C provides a rationale for the cellular responses evoked by phosphatidic acid and the ability of this phospholipid to potentiate and initiate hormonal responses. 相似文献

ACh stimulates arachidonic acid (AA) release from membrane phospholipids of vascular endothelial cells (ECs). In rabbit aorta, AA is metabolized through the 15-lipoxygenase pathway to form vasodilatory eicosanoids 15-hydroxy-11,12-epoxyeicosatrienoic acid (HEETA) and 11,12,15-trihydroxyeicosatrienoic acid (THETA). AA is released from phosphatidylcholine (PC) and phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) by phospholipase A2 (PLA2), or from phosphatidylinositol (PI) by phospholipase C (PLC) pathway. The diacylglycerol (DAG) lipase can convert DAG into 2-arachidonoylglycerol from which free AA can be released by monoacylglycerol (MAG) lipase or fatty acid amidohydrolase (FAAH). We used specific inhibitors to determine the involvement of the PLC pathway in ACh-induced AA release. In rabbit aortic rings precontracted by phenylephrine, ACh induced relaxation in the presence of indomethacin and N(omega)-nitro-L-arginine (L-NNA). These relaxations were blocked by the PLC inhibitor U-73122, DAG lipase inhibitor RHC-80267, and MAG lipase/FAAH inhibitor URB-532. Cultured rabbit aortic ECs were labeled with [14C]AA and stimulated with methacholine (10(-5) M). Free [14C]AA was released by methacholine. Methacholine decreased the [14C]AA content of PI, DAG, and MAG fractions but not PC or PE fractions. Methacholine-induced release of [14C]AA was blocked by U-73122, RHC-80267, and URB-532 but not by U-73343, an inactive analog of U-73122. The data suggested that ACh activates PLC, DAG lipase, and MAG lipase pathway to release AA from membrane lipids. This pathway is important in regulating vasodilatory eicosanoid synthesis and vascular relaxation in rabbit aorta. 相似文献
