A glycerophosphonocholine analog of the ether-linked lipid, rac-1-O-octadecyl-2-O-methyl-glycero-3-phosphocholine (ET-18-OCH3-GPC), was synthesized in which the head group is nonhydrolyzable by phospholipase C. The phosphonate analog used in this study is rac-3-octadecyloxy-2-methoxy-propyl-phosphonocholine, C18H37OCH2CH(OCH3)CH2P(O)(O)OCH2CH2N+(CH3)3. The activity of the synthetic phosphonate was tested in the human leukemic cell line, HL-60, and the human undifferentiated cervical carcinoma, C-41. The glycerophosphonocholine inhibited [3H]thymidine uptake by HL-60 cells with an EC50 value of 5-7 microM. The glycerophosphate ET-18-OCH3-GPC had an EC50 value of approximately 2 microM against HL-60 cells. The EC50 values estimated from cell viability experiments were similar to that for [3H]thymidine uptake. The EC50 value for C-41 cells was about 10-15 microM. The data demonstrate that the glycerophosphonocholine is a promising anti-cancer drug for the treatment of both leukemia and solid tumors. Furthermore, the data demonstrate that phospholipase C-catalyzed hydrolysis of ET-18-OCH3-GPC does not play an important role in the cytotoxic action of the ether-linked glycerolipids.

Activation of receptor-linked and cytoplasmic protein tyrosine kinases is crucial in the control of normal and abnormal cell growth and differentiation. Some substrates of protein tyrosine kinases such as phospholipase C gamma and ras GTPase-activating protein (GAP) contain sequences homologous to the src protein domains SH2 and SH3 (refs 3-9). The proto-oncogene vav is expressed in haematopoietic cells and its product Vav contains sequence motifs commonly found in transcription factors, such as helix-loop-helix, leucine-zipper and zinc-finger motifs and nuclear localization signals, as well as a single SH2 and two SH3 domains. Here we show that stimulation of T-cell antigen receptor on normal human peripheral blood lymphocytes or on human leukaemic T cells, and the crosslinking of IgE receptors on rat basophilic leukaemia cells, both promote the phosphorylation of tyrosine residues in Vav. Moreover, activation of the receptor for epidermal growth factor leads to marked tyrosine phosphorylation of Vav in cells transiently expressing vav, and Vav associates with the receptor through its SH2 domain. We propose that vav encodes a new class of substrates whose tyrosine phosphorylation may provide a mechanism for direct signal transduction linking receptors at the cell surface to transcriptional control.

Antibody-mediated ligation of the CD3/T cell antigen receptor (TcR) activates phospholipase C (PLC) via a tyrosine kinase signaling pathway that requires expression of the transmembrane tyrosine phosphatase CD45. In normal T cells, CD3-mediated PLC activation is significantly augmented by co-ligation of CD3 with the CD4 co-receptor; however, unlike CD3-associated tyrosine kinases, antibody-induced activation of the CD4-associated tyrosine kinase p56lck does not require CD45 expression. To explore the role of CD45 in the CD3 and CD4 activation pathways further, we examined the effect of CD3/CD4 cross-linking on tyrosine phosphorylation and activation of phospholipase C in CD45- mutant cells of the T cell leukemia line HPB.ALL. In accord with previous observations, anti-CD3 stimulation of the CD45-deficient cells failed to activate tyrosine kinases, or PLC as measured by mobilization of intracellular calcium. However, we show here that ligation of CD3 with CD4 leads to tyrosine phosphorylation of PLC gamma 1 and elevation in the intracellular free Ca2+ concentration in CD45- cells that is in excess of that seen in CD45+ cells. Since CD4 stimulation alone did not activate PLC, a component of the CD3 signaling pathway must be independent of CD45. Anti-CD4-induced tyrosine phosphorylation and activation of CD4-associated lck was also enhanced in CD45- cells, suggesting that increased lck activation compensates for the defect in CD3/TcR signaling, such that interaction of the CD3 signaling pathway with the CD4-associated pathway activates PLC even in the absence of CD45. The data demonstrate that the requirement for CD45 in coupling CD3/TcR to the PI-PLC activation cascade is not absolute, but rather substantiates a role for CD45 in modifying molecular interactions that control T cell activation.

We investigated the effect of bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS) on phospholipid (PL) turnover in human monocytic leukaemia U937 cells. Cells were pre-labelled with [3H]choline, [14C]ethanolamine and [3H]inositol for 24 h. By monitoring the radiolabel association with cellular PL, the data indicated that LPS (10 micrograms/ml) drastically altered the catabolism of choline-containing PL; it induced their breakdown by 50% within 20 min. The reutilization of choline or its phosphates for PL synthesis was also suggested as a result of regaining radiolabel in the next 40 min. Choline-containing PL then underwent a second degradation after 60 min; 50% decline in radiolabel was detected at 120 min. In contrast, LPS did not induce the breakdown of phosphatidylethanolamine and phosphatidylinositol through phospholipase C/phospholipase D (PLC/PLD). No significant redistribution of the radiolabel in PL was detected in any cases during chasing. The data clearly indicate that LPS stimulates phosphatidylcholine breakdown, implying that the liberation of phosphatidic acid or diacylglycerol via PLC/PLD reaction may be relevant to the initiation of LPS-induced monocytic activation.

Stimulation of rat basophilic leukemia (RBL-2H3) cells with oligomeric IgE elicited a rapid and transient phosphorylation of phospholipase C (PLC)-gamma 1 on tyrosine residues. Prior incubation of RBL-2H3 cells with a protein tyrosine kinase inhibitor, herbimycin A, prevented the tyrosine phosphorylation of PLC-gamma 1 as well as the hydrolysis of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate induced by oligomeric IgE. However, 5'-(N-ethyl)carboxamidoadenosine, which is known to activate PLC through a G protein, did not elicit tyrosine phosphorylation of PLC-gamma 1. These results, together with previous findings showing that tyrosine phosphorylation of PLC-gamma 1 enhances its catalytic activity, indicate that phosphorylation of PLC-gamma 1 by a nonreceptor tyrosine kinase is the mechanism by which IgE receptor aggregation triggers PLC activation.

Antiphosphotyrosine immunoblots were used to characterize tyrosine phosphorylated proteins after stimulation of the human TCR. Increased tyrosine phosphorylation was evident on at least 12 substrates within 2 min after ligation of the TCR with mAb. Analysis of the time course for increased tyrosine phosphorylation revealed distinct patterns. Increased phosphorylation of 135-kDa and 100-kDa substrates was evident within 5 s, whereas increased phosphorylation of the TCR-zeta-chain required several minutes after treatment with anti-CD3 mAb. This rapid cellular tyrosine phosphorylation occurred independent of the cell cycle, as it occurred after stimulation of resting T cells, T cell blasts, and the Jurkat T cell leukemia line. When the TCR complex was cross-linked together with the CD4 receptor by heteroconjugate anti-CD3/CD4 mAb, an increased magnitude of tyrosine phosphorylation occurred, although no new substrates could be detected. The increased tyrosine phosphorylation of the 135-kDa and 100-kDa substrates was specific in that anti-HLA class I, anti-CD6, anti-CD7, and anti-CD28 antibodies did not cause increased tyrosine phosphorylation. Anti-CD4 stimulation of resting T cells did not cause increased tyrosine phosphorylation of pp100 and pp135, suggesting that the CD4-associated kinase, lck, does not account for the tyrosine phosphorylation observed after TCR stimulation. Similarly, pharmacologic treatment of cells with phorbol ester and calcium ionophore did not cause increased tyrosine phosphorylation of these substrates, indicating that activation of protein kinase C or phospholipase C does not account for these early increases in tyrosine phosphorylation. The time of onset of pp100 phosphorylation, and the magnitude of phosphorylation correlated with the magnitude of calcium mobilization when cells were stimulated with different forms of TCR stimulation. When cells were labeled with [3H]myoinositol and analyzed after stimulation by anti-CD3 mAb, increased tyrosine phosphorylation of the 135-kDa and 100-kDa substrates preceded the activation of phospholipase C, as measured by the appearance of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate. This occurred in both T cell blasts and in the Jurkat T cell line. Thus, these findings show that increased tyrosine phosphorylation is the earliest yet detected signal observed after ligation of the TCR complex, and furthermore suggest that tyrosine phosphorylation might link the TCR to the phosphatidylinositolbisphosphate hydrolysis signaling pathway.

Rat basophilic leukemia (RBL 2H3) cells were passively sensitized by exposure to monoclonal anti-trinitrophenol mouse immunoglobulin E (anti-trinitrophenol IgE) (0.5 microgram/ml) and triggered by exposure to a sub-optimal concentration of trinitrophenol ovalbumin conjugate (5 ng/ml). At this concentration, trinitrophenol-ovalbumin increased histamine release from a basal rate of 4.8 +/- 0.5 to 28.5 +/- 4.6% and peptidoleukotrienes from less than 0.1 to 4.2 +/- 1.3 ng/10(6) cells in the activated cells. Ro 19-3704 and Ro 19-1400, platelet activating factor (PAF) antagonists which are structural analogs of PAF, potently inhibited both the IgE-dependent release of histamine (IC50 values of 3.0 and 3.6 microM, respectively) and LT release (IC50 values of 5.0 microM for both compounds) from the cells. These effects appeared to be independent to the ability of the compounds to act as PAF antagonists since PAF on its own had no effect on mediator release, and WEB 2086 and BN 52021, structurally distinct PAF antagonists, were relatively ineffective as inhibitors of mediator release. Ro 19-3704 and Ro 19-1400 were observed to be potent inhibitors of the soluble phospholipase A2 activity in synovial fluid from rheumatoid arthritic patients (IC50 values of 6.5 and 8.4 microM, respectively). In contrast, WEB 2086 and BN 52021 had no effect on this phospholipase A2. Ro 19-3704 significantly inhibited the IgE-dependent formation of inositol phosphates in RBL 2H3 cells (IC50 value of 7.0 microM). These data suggest that the mediator release inhibitory action of these compounds may be related to the ability of these compounds to inhibit phospholipase A2 and/or phospholipase C.

Phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C (PI-PLC) is an enzyme that has the capacity to release glycosyl-phosphatidyl inositol (G-PI)-anchored proteins from the cells surface. Pretreatment of the human T-cell leukemia cell line Molt-4 with PI-PLC resulted in a decrease in the susceptibility to lysis by natural killer (NK) cells. Treatment of the erythroleukemia cell line K562 with PI-PLC had no effect on its NK susceptibility. PI-PLC-treated and untreated Molt-4 bound equally well to lymphocytes in target-binding studies with effector cell preparations enriched for NK cells. Susceptibility to cytolytic granules isolated from rat LGL tumor cells remained the same after treatment of Molt-4 or K562 with PI-PLC. Combined treatment of Molt-4 with PI-PLC and rlFN-alpha or rlFN-gamma resulted in additive reductions of the NK susceptibility, suggesting that PI-PLC and interferons act on different mechanisms to protect cells from NK lysis. When expression of a number of antigens on Molt-4 and K562 was analyzed in flow cytometry, only the expression of CD58 was reduced after PI-PLC treatment. The susceptibility of Con A blasts to MLR derived cytotoxic T-cells was not altered by treatment with phospholipase. These data suggest that PI-PLC treatment reduces the capacity of some target cells to activate NK cells upon contract. The mechanism behind this phenomenon is presently unclear.

The interactions between haemopoietic progenitor cells and marrow stromal cells that are essential for the regulation of normal haemopoiesis are defective in chronic phase chronic myeloid leukaemia (CML). The presence of primitive progenitor cells (blast colony-forming cells, Bl-CFC) in the blood of patients with CML is reflected by their reduced capacity to bind to marrow derived stromal layers in vitro. Whereas normal bone marrow Bl-CFC bind irreversibly to cultured stromal layers (and none are found in normal blood), the Bl-CFC in CML bind transiently and then detach. The normal cell adhesion mechanism is partially sensitive to treatment with phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C (Pl-PLC), indicating the participation of a phosphatidylinositol (Pl)-linked structure; however, when CML cells were treated with Pl-PLC it had no effect on progenitor binding. Two other Pl-linked structures, decay-accelerating factor (DAF) and lymphocyte function associated antigen-3 (LFA-3) were normally expressed on CD34 positive CML cells and normally susceptible to Pl-PLC treatment. The treatment of normal cells with Pl-PLC, to mimic the situation in CML, resulted in the indiscriminate and inefficient binding of Bl-CFC to stroma. Moreover, treatment of the normal cells with 5637 conditioned medium (CM), which contains haemopoietic growth factors, also reduced the binding capacity of normal Bl-CFC; 5637CM treatment did not alter the expression of DAF. It is proposed that a Pl-linked cell adhesion molecule (CAM) is deficient in CML as a consequence of the constitutive activation of ABL kinase whilst, in normal cells, CAMs attached in this manner are responsible for efficient adhesion to stroma and are regulated by growth factors.

1. De novo synthesis of phospholipid and its catabolism in human leukemia monocytic THP-1 cells were investigated. 2. Radiolabelled precursors: [methyl-3H]chloride, [1,2-14C]ethanolamine and myo-[2-3H]inositol were readily incorporated into CHCl3-MEOH extractable lipid fraction as a function of time. 3. The radiolabels derived from choline, ethanolamine and inositol were preferentially incorporated into PC, PE and PI fraction, respectively. The data indicate that de novo PL synthesis takes place, and the CDP-choline pathway is operative as a major pathway for PC synthesized in THP-1 cells. 4. Bacterial endotoxin dose-dependently stimulated the incorporation of radiolabelled precursors. Approximately 50% stimulation in PC and PE synthesis was obtained in 20 hr, while the incorporation of [3H]inositol was rapidly stimulated by 170% within 4 hr, and the stimulation declined drastically thereafter. 5. LPS did not alter the radiolabel distribution into PL in any of the three cases. 6. In pulse-chase studies, the cells prelabelled with radioactive PL were exposed to LPS (1 micrograms/ml). The breakdown of PC was enhanced about 30% within the first 2 hr followed by a stimulated PC synthesis observed in the next 4 hr. In contrast, LPS did not induce the hydrolysis of PE and PI. 7. The data indicate that LPS produces a broad spectrum of stimulatory effects on PL synthesis and selectively stimulates the hydrolysis of PC via phospholipase C/D reaction in THP-1 cells.
