We have previously reported that Fas cross-linking resulted in an increase in phospholipase D activity in A20 murine cells (J.-S. Han et al., Arch. Biochem. Biophys. 367, 233-239, 1999). In an attempt to explore the Fas downstream factor contributing to the activation of phospholipase D, we have investigated the possible involvement of a small GTP biding protein Ras in signaling events that were triggered by Fas cross-linking. Upon adenoviral expression of dominant negative mutant of Ras (N17Ras), an increase in phospholipase D activity by anti-Fas monoclonal antibody was diminished. Also, the Fas downstream signaling events triggered by Fas cross-linking such as the activation of phosphatidylcholine-specific phospholipase C, the increase in diacylglycerol level, and the translocation of protein kinase C to membrane fraction were all reduced by N17Ras expression. When parallel experiments were performed with manumycin-A, a Ras farnensyltransferase inhibitor, almost identical inhibitory effects on Fas downstream signaling were exhibited. These data suggest that Ras GTPase is essential in transmitting phospholipase D activation signal induced by Fas cross-linking and is located at phosphatidylcholine-specific phospholipase C upstream in Fas signaling cascades. 相似文献

Thromboxane A2 (TXA2) receptor-mediated signal transduction was investigated in 1321N1 human astrocytoma cells. 9,11-Epithio-11,12-methano-TXA2 (STA2), a TXA2 receptor agonist, induced Ca2+ mobilization and phosphoinositide hydrolysis in a concentration-dependent manner. These responses were inhibited by treatment with U73122, an inhibitor of phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C, or by culturing in 0.5% fetal calf serum containing 0.5 mM dibutyryladenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (dbcAMP) for 2 days. However, the dbcAMP treatment augmented the TXA2 receptor-mediated phosphorylation of mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK). These results were confirmed by a functional MAPK assay measuring the incorporation of 32P into the MAPK substrate peptide. The TXA2 receptor-mediated MAPK activation was inhibited by SQ29548, a TXA2 receptor antagonist, and GF109203X, an inhibitor of protein kinase C. Although U73122 did not inhibit or only slightly inhibited the activation of MAPK, D-609, an inhibitor of phosphatidylcholine-specific phospholipase C, potently attenuated the activation in a concentration-dependent manner. Furthermore, STA2 accelerated the release of [3H]choline metabolites from the cells prelabeled with [3H]choline chloride. This release was inhibited by treatment with D-609. These results suggest that phosphatidylcholine-specific phospholipase C and protein kinase C, but not phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C, are involved in TXA2 receptor-mediated MAPK activation in 1321N1 human astrocytoma cells. 相似文献

Thromboxane A2 (TXA2) analogue STA2 produced a tonic contraction in rabbit aortic smooth muscles. In the present study, we examined phosphatidylcholine (PC) hydrolysis as a signaling pathway for the tonic contraction in rabbit aortic smooth muscles. In the primary cultured cells labeled with [3H]choline, STA2 caused an accumulation of [3H]phosphorylcholine, a metabolite of PC by PC-specific PLC, in a concentration-dependent manner. The accumulation of [3H]phosphorylcholine was inhibited by SQ29548, a TXA2 receptor antagonist. In the muscle strips, STA2-induced tonic contraction was potently inhibited by D609, an inhibitor of PC-specific phospholipase C in a concentration-dependent manner with the IC50 of about 10 microM. Norepinephrine-induced tonic contraction was also inhibited by D609 with a weaker potency. These results strongly suggest that stimulation of TXA2 receptor results in the activation of PC-specific phospholipase C to yield diacylglycerol that contributes to the tonic contraction. 相似文献

As an inhibitor of phosphatidylcholine-specific phospholipase C (PC-PLC), D609 has been widely used to explain the role of PC-PLC in various signal transduction pathways. This study shows that D609 inhibits group IV cytosolic phospholipase A2 (cPLA2), but neither secretory PLA2 nor a Ca2+ -dependent PLA2. Dixon plot analysis shows a mixed pattern of noncompetitive and uncompetitive inhibition with Ki = 86.25 microM for the cPLA2 purified from bovine spleen. D609 also time- and dose-dependently reduces the release of arachidonic acid from a Ca2+- ionophore A23187-stimulated MDCK cells. In the AA release experiment, IC50 of D609 was approximately 375 microM, suggesting that this reagent may not enter the cells easily. The present study indicates that the inhibitory effects of D609 on various cellular responses may be partially attributable to the inhibition of cPLA2. 相似文献

In the present study, we investigated the involvement of protein kinase C (PKC) in antigen (Ag, DNP-Ascaris suum)-induced phospholipase D (PLD) activation of rat peritoneal mast cells. Phorbor myristate acetate (PMA) as well as Ag activated PLD as inferred by phosphatidylethanol (PEt) production. PKC inhibitors, staurosporine and H-7, however, failed to suppress PMA-stimulated PLD activation, suggesting that PLD activation by PMA is independent of PKC. By contrast, Ag-stimulated PLD activity was significantly reduced by staurosporine and slightly by H-7. Surprisingly, the inhibitors inhibited Ag-stimulated phospholipase C (PLC), correlated to the inhibition of PLD. These observations lead us to conclude that in Ag-stimulated mast cells 1,2-diacylglycerol (DG) formed by PLC directly or indirectly stimulates PLD, independently of PKC. 相似文献

Although several classes of phospholipases have been implicated in NK cell-mediated cytotoxicity, no evidence has been reported to date on involvement of phosphatidylcholine-specific phospholipase C (PC-PLC) in NK activation by lymphokines and/or in lytic granule exocytosis. This study demonstrated the expression of two PC-PLC isoforms (M(r) 40 and 66 kDa) and their IL-2-dependent distribution between cytoplasm and ectoplasmic membrane surface in human NK cells. Following cell activation by IL-2, cytoplasmic PC-PLC translocated from the microtubule-organizing center toward cell periphery, essentially by kinesin-supported transport along microtubules, while PC-PLC exposed on the outer cell surface increased 2-fold. Preincubation of NK cells with a PC-PLC inhibitor, tricyclodecan-9-yl-xanthogenate, strongly reduced NK-mediated cytotoxicity. In IL-2-activated cells, this loss of cytotoxicity was associated with a decrease of PC-PLC exposed on the cell surface, and accumulation of cytoplasmic PC-PLC in the Golgi region. Massive colocalization of PC-PLC-rich particles with perforin-containing granules was found in the cytoplasm of NK-activated (but not NK-resting) cells; both organelles clustered at the intercellular contact region of effector-target cell conjugates. These newly detected mechanisms of PC-PLC translocation and function support an essential role of this enzyme in regulated granule exocytosis and NK-mediated cytotoxicity. 相似文献

Bradykinin-induced activation of phospholipase A2 is independent of the activation of polyphosphoinositide-hydrolyzing phospholipase C 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
This study evaluates the role of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2) and its metabolites as possible mediators in the activation of phospholipases A2 in porcine aortic endothelial cells. We compared the time courses of bradykinin-induced turnover of phosphoinositides and the appearance of unesterified arachidonic acid (uAA) and eicosanoids. The metabolism of phosphoinositides was examined in cells prelabeled with [3H]inositol, which has a similar distribution as the endogenous inositol lipids. At 37 degrees C, bradykinin induced a rapid rise in lysophosphatidylinositol (lyso-PI) and inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) as well as a decrease in PIP2. Lyso-PI formation was detected at 10 s, as early as PIP2 degradation and IP3 formation. This suggests that the activation of PIP2-hydrolyzing phospholipase C and PI-hydrolyzing phospholipase A2 are simultaneous. However, at 30 degrees C, lyso-PI formation was detected in the absence of an increase in IP3 indicating that the activation of phospholipase A2 does not require the accumulation of IP3. The time course of formation of uAA and eicosanoids were examined in [3H]arachidonic acid-prelabeled cells. The 3H radioactivity was distributed among the phospholipid classes and subclasses the same as the endogenous phospholipids. Bradykinin stimulated the intracellular accumulation of uAA, detectable at 5 s, earlier than that of 1,2-diacylglycerol and phosphatidic acid. Such immediate formation of uAA further supports the notion that activation of phospholipase A2 is a very early event during the interaction of bradykinin with porcine endothelial cells, and that PIP2 hydrolysis is not prerequisite for the initial activation of phospholipase A2. 相似文献

C62B rat glioma cells respond to muscarinic cholinergic stimulation with transient inositol phosphate formation and phospholipase A2-dependent arachidonic acid liberation. Since phospholipase A2 is a Ca2+-sensitive enzyme, we have examined the role of the agonist-stimulated Ca2+ response in production of the arachidonate signal. The fluorescent indicator fura-2 was used to monitor changes in cytoplasmic Ca2+ levels ([Ca2+]i) of C62B cells following acetylcholine treatment. In the presence of extracellular Ca2+, acetylcholine induces a biphasic [Ca2+]i response consisting of an initial transient peak that precedes arachidonate liberation and a sustained elevation that outlasts the phospholipase A2 response. The initial [Ca2+]i peak is not altered by the absence of external Ca2+ and therefore reflects intracellular Ca2+ mobilization. The sustained elevation phase is dependent on the influx of external Ca2+; it is lost in Ca2+-free medium and restored on the addition of Ca2+. Pretreating cells with phorbol dibutyrate substantially inhibits acetylcholine-stimulated inositol phosphate formation and the peak [Ca2+]i response without affecting the sustained elevation in [Ca2+]i. This suggests that the release of internal Ca2+ stores by inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate can be blocked without interfering with Ca2+ influx. Pretreatment with phorbol also fails to affect acetylcholine-stimulated arachidonate liberation, demonstrating that phospholipase A2 activation does not require normal intracellular Ca2+ release. Stimulated arachidonate accumulation is totally inhibited in Ca2+-free medium and restored by the subsequent addition of Ca2+. Pretreatment with verapamil, a voltage-dependent Ca2+ channel inhibitor, also blocks both the sustained [Ca2+]i elevation and arachidonate liberation without altering peak intracellular Ca2+ release. We conclude that the influx of extracellular Ca2+ is tightly coupled to phospholipase A2 activation, whereas large changes in [Ca2+]i due to mobilization of internal Ca2+ stores are neither sufficient nor necessary for acetylcholine-stimulated phospholipase A2 activation. 相似文献

This study uses human alveolar macrophages to determine whether activation of a phosphatidylcholine (PC)-specific phospholipase C (PC-PLC) is linked to activation of the p42/44 (ERK) kinases by LPS. LPS-induced ERK kinase activation was inhibited by tricyclodecan-9-yl xanthogenate (D609), a relatively specific inhibitor of PC-PLC. LPS also increased amounts of diacylglycerol (DAG), and this increase in DAG was inhibited by D609. LPS induction of DAG was, at least in part, derived from PC hydrolysis. Ceramide was also increased in LPS-treated alveolar macrophages, and this increase in ceramide was inhibited by D609. Addition of exogenous C2 ceramide or bacterial-derived sphingomyelinase to alveolar macrophages increased ERK kinase activity. LPS also activated PKC zeta, and this activation was inhibited by D609. LPS-activated PKC zeta phosphorylated MAP kinase kinase, the kinase directly upstream of the ERK kinases. LPS-induced cytokine production (RNA and protein) was also inhibited by D609. As an aggregate, these studies support the hypothesis that one way by which LPS activates the ERK kinases is via activation of PC-PLC and that activation of a PC-PLC is an important component of macrophage activation by LPS. 相似文献

In previous studies we have demonstrated that ethanol activates hormone-sensitive phospholipase C in intact human platelets, resulting in the mobilization of intracellular Ca2+ and platelet shape change. The present study aims to localize further this effect of ethanol by examining its interaction with the regulation of phospholipase C in a permeabilized cell system. In platelets permeabilized with a minimal concentration (18 micrograms/ml) of saponin, ethanol by itself did not activate phospholipase C. However, ethanol potentiated the activation of phospholipase C in response to the non-hydrolysable GTP analogue GTP[S] (guanosine 5'-[gamma-thio]triphosphate), an effect similar to that observed with thrombin. Ethanol also potentiated the response to fluoride, which acts directly on G-proteins. Other short-chain alcohols also stimulated phospholipase C in a synergistic manner with GTP[S]. The ability of specific alcohols to stimulate phospholipase C was directly related to their respective lipid-solubilities, as determined by their partition coefficients. Moreover, the potencies of each alcohol correlated with their ability to elicit Ca2+ mobilization and shape change in intact platelets. These effects of ethanol were eliminated by a disruption of receptor-phospholipase C coupling induced by the addition of higher concentrations of saponin. These data indicate that the activation of phospholipase C by ethanol may occur by affecting protein-protein interactions in the signal-transduction complex involving GTP-binding regulatory proteins. 相似文献

Differential activation by fMet-Leu-Phe and phorbol ester of a plasma membrane phosphatidylcholine-specific phospholipase D in human neutrophil 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Signal transduction involving phosphatidylcholine hydrolysis has been investigated in human neutrophils (PMN) after in situ generation of [3H]alkylacyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine ([3H]alkylacyl-GPC) by cell incubation with [3H]alkylacetyl-GPC. When PMN were stimulated with the chemotactic peptide N-formyl-Met-Leu-Phe(fMLP) or phorbol myristate acetate (PMA) in the presence of cytochalasin B, both 1-O-alkyl-2-acyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphate (PA) and 1-O-alkyl-2-acyl-sn-glycerol (AAG) were generated. On addition of the agonists in the presence of ethanol, phosphatidylethanol (PEt) [corrected] was formed with a concomitant decrease in PA and AAG. These results indicate the presence of a phospholipase D (PLD) acting on phosphatidylcholine in human PMN. The kinetics of hydrolysis were quite different according to the stimulus. Whereas fMLP induced a maximum rise in PA and AAG at 30-45 s, these products began to appear only after 1 min upon cell incubation with PMA. Similar amounts of products were formed at 1 min with fMLP and only at 5 min with PMA. Although similar time courses of PA generation were obtained in the absence of cytochalasin B, AAG were no longer involved and therefore cannot account for intracellular second messenger under physiological conditions. Subcellular distribution studies demonstrated the exclusive location of PA and PEt [corrected] in the plasma membrane. The possible involvement of PA in respiratory burst activation is discussed. 相似文献

Two phospholipase D (PLD) enzymes with both hydrolase and transferase activities were isolated from Streptomyces chromofuscus. There were substantial differences in the kinetic properties of the two PLD enzymes towards monomeric, micellar, and vesicle substrates. The most striking difference was that the higher molecular weight enzyme (PLD57 approximately 57 kDa) could be activated allosterically with a low mole fraction of phosphatidic acid (PA) incorporated into a PC bilayer (Geng et al., J. Biol. Chem. 273 (1998) 12195-12202). PLD42/20, a tightly associated complex of two peptides, one of 42 kDa and the other 20 kDa, had a 4-6-fold higher Vmax toward PC substrates than PLD57 and was not activated by PA. N-Terminal sequencing of both enzymes indicated that both components of PLD42/20 were cleavage products of PLD57. The larger component included the N-terminal segment of PLD57 and contained the active site. The N-terminus of the smaller peptide corresponded to the C-terminal region of PLD57; this peptide had no PLD activity by itself. Increasing the pH of PLD42/20 to 8.9, followed by chromatography of PLD42/20 on a HiTrap Q column at pH 8.5 separated the 42- and 20-kDa proteins. The 42-kDa complex had about the same specific activity with or without the 20-kDa fragment. The lack of PA activation for the 42-kDa protein and for PLD42/20 indicates that an intact C-terminal region of PLD57 is necessary for activation by PA. Furthermore, the mechanism for transmission of the allosteric signal requires an intact PLD57. 相似文献

Liquid nitrogen (LN2) infusions are currently used in a slow controlled-rate freezing during cryopreservation. The effects of two different LN2 infusion frequencies (conventional, slow 50 infusions/min and high 120 infusions/min) were studied with frozen-thawed two-cell mouse embryos and their subsequent development to blastocysts. The embryos that were subjected to the high frequency LN2 infusion (HFLI) showed a significantly higher survival rate over the low frequency LN2 infusion (LFLI) (50.7 vs. 34.6%, P < 0.05). The blastocyst formation was also higher in HFLI (76.7%) than LFLI (44.0%, P < 0.05) with respective to the number of cells in a blastocyst of 71.6 8.0 (n = 20) and 62.5 +/- 4.7 (n = 20) (P < 0.05). The relative amount of H2O2 in an embryo that was assessed by a fluorescence intensity of 2',7'-dichlorofluorecein (DCF) showed a difference between the procedures with 16.6 +/- 1.6 (n = 21) and 23.4 +/- 1.8 (n = 24) for HFLI and LFLI, respectively (P < 0.05). Mitochondrial staining by Rhodamine 123 showed that the number and distribution of viable mitochondria were similar in both procedures, but fewer mitochondria were observed with a marked aggregation in the arrested embryos, indicating a mitochondrial disintegration. The mitochondrial membrane potential was visualized by a membrane potential-sensitive fluorescent probe, 5,5',6,6'-tetrachloro-1,1',3,3'-tetraethylbenzimidazolcarbocyanine iodide (JC-1). There was a decrease in the number of mitochondria that had a high membrane potential, and they showed a peripheral redistribution along the cell membrane in LFLI. A fluorescent staining of the actin filaments revealed a discontinuity that was noticeably at the peripheral "actin band" in LFLI. The DNA fragmentation was assessed by the dUTP nick end-labeling (TUNEL). The results showed a higher DNA fragmentation of blastocyst nuclei in LFLI compared to HFLI (65.6 vs. 36.0%, P < 0.05). Based on these observations, it was concluded that HFLI was better than LFLI in the case of freezing the mouse 2-cell embryos for preserving cytoskeletons and mitochondrial integrities. This could subsequently lead to a higher survival and developmental rate of the cryopreserved mouse embryos. 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18.
The IFN-gamma linked PKC activation in endothelial cells was analysed. It was shown that IFN-gamma activates PKC in three transient and separate cycles within the first 60 minutes after IFN-gamma stimulation. Before each PKC activation there was an increase in DAG level. IP3, phosphocholine and choline productions were measured to determine the origin of DAG. Neither of the PLC products, IP3 or phosphocholine, were released after IFN-gamma stimulation. On the other hand the PLD products choline and PA were released before all the three activation cycles of PKC. 相似文献

Background
Many eukaryotes, including plants and fungi make spores that resist severe environmental stress. The micro-organism Dictyostelium contains a single phospholipase C gene (PLC); deletion of the gene has no effect on growth, cell movement and differentiation. In this report we show that PLC is essential to sense the environment of food-activated spores.Results
Plc-null spores germinate at alkaline pH, reduced temperature or increased osmolarity, conditions at which the emerging amoebae can not grow. In contrast, food-activated wild-type spores return to dormancy till conditions in the environment allow growth. The analysis of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) levels and the effect of added IP3 uncover an unexpected mechanism how PLC regulates spore germination: i) deletion of PLC induces the enhanced activity of an IP5 phosphatase leading to high IP3 levels in plc-null cells; ii) in wild-type spores unfavourable conditions inhibit PLC leading to a reduction of IP3 levels; addition of exogenous IP3 to wild-type spores induces germination at unfavourable conditions; iii) in plc-null spores IP3 levels remain high, also at unfavourable environmental conditions.Conclusions
The results imply that environmental conditions regulate PLC activity and that IP3 induces spore germination; the uncontrolled germination of plc-null spores is not due to a lack of PLC activity but to the constitutive activation of an alternative IP3-forming pathway. 相似文献20.
The present study showed that sphingosine 1-phosphate (SPP) induced rapid stimulation of phospholipase D (PLD) in skeletal muscle C2C12 cells. The effect was receptor-mediated since it was fully inhibited by pertussis toxin. All known SPP-specific receptors, Edg-1, Edg-3 and AGR16/H218, resulted to be expressed in C2C12 myoblasts, although at a different extent. SPP-induced PLD activation did not involve membrane translocation of PLD1 or PLD2 and appeared to be fully dependent on protein kinase C (PKC) catalytic activity. SPP increased membrane association of PKCalpha, PKCdelta and PKClambda, however, only PKCalpha and PKCdelta played a role in PLD activation since low concentrations of GF109203X and rottlerin, a selective inhibitor of PKCdelta, prevented PLD stimulation. 相似文献
