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.

Gelsolin, an actin-binding protein, shows a strong ability to bind to phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP(2)). Here we showed in in vitro experiments that gelsolin inhibited recombinant phospholipase D1 (PLD1) and PLD2 activities but not the oleate-dependent PLD and that this inhibition was not reversed by increasing PIP(2) concentration. To investigate the role of gelsolin in agonist-mediated PLD activation, we used NIH 3T3 fibroblasts stably transfected with the cDNA for human cytosolic gelsolin. Gelsolin overexpression suppressed bradykinin-induced activation of phospholipase C (PLC) and PLD. On the other hand, sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P)-induced PLD activation could not be modified by gelsolin overexpression, whereas PLC activation was suppressed. PLD activation by phorbol myristate acetate or Ca(2+) ionophore A23187 was not affected by gelsolin overexpression. Stimulation of control cells with either bradykinin or S1P caused translocation of protein kinase C (PKC) to the membranes. Translocation of PKC-alpha and PKC-beta1 but not PKC-epsilon was reduced in gelsolin-overexpressed cells, whereas phosphorylation of mitogen-activated protein kinase was not changed. S1P-induced PLC activation and mitogen-activated protein kinase phosphorylation were sensitive to pertussis toxin, but PLD response was insensitive to such treatment, suggesting that S1P induced PLD activation via certain G protein distinct from G(i) for PLC and mitogen-activated protein kinase pathway. Our results suggest that gelsolin modulates bradykinin-mediated PLD activation via suppression of PLC and PKC activities but did not affect S1P-mediated PLD activation.

Many of the effects of 1alpha,25-(OH)2D3 and 24R,25-(OH)2D3 on costochondral chondrocytes are mediated by the protein kinase C (PKC) signal transduction pathway. 1alpha,25-(OH)2D3 activates PKC in costochondral growth zone chondrocytes through a specific membrane receptor (1alpha,25-mVDR), involving rapid increases in diacylglycerol via a phospholipase C (PLC)-dependent mechanism. 24R,25-(OH)2D3 activates PKC in resting zone chondrocytes. Although diacylglycerol is increased by 24R,25-(OH)2D3, PLC is not involved, suggesting a phospholipase D (PLD)-dependent mechanism. Here, we show that resting zone and growth zone cells express mRNAs for PLD1a, PLD1b, and PLD2. Both cell types have PLD activity, but levels are higher in resting zone cells. 24R,25-(OH)2D3, but not 24S,25-(OH)2D3 or 1alpha,25-(OH)2D3, stimulates PLD activity in resting zone cells within 3 min via nongenomic mechanisms. Neither 1alpha,25-(OH)2D3 nor 24R,25-(OH)2D3 affected PLD in growth zone cells. Basal and 24R,25-(OH)2D3-stimulated PLD were inhibited by the PLD inhibitors wortmannin and EDS. Inhibition of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI 3-kinase), PKC, phosphatidylinositol-specific PLC (PI-PLC), and phosphatidylcholine-specific PLC (PC-PLC) had no effect on PLD activity. Thus, 24R,25-(OH)2D3 stimulates PLD, and PI 3-kinase, PI-PLC and PKC are not involved, whereas PLD is required for stimulation of PKC by 24R,25-(OH)2D3. Pertussis toxin, GDPbetaS, and GTPgammaS had no effect on 24R,25-(OH)2D3-dependent PLD when added to cell cultures, indicating that G-proteins are not involved. These data show that PKC activation in resting zone cells is mediated by PLD and suggest that a functional 24R,25-(OH)2D3-mVDR is required. The results also support the conclusion that the 24R,25-(OH)2D3-responsive PLD is PLD2, since this PLD isoform is G-protein-independent.

1alpha,25-(OH)(2)D(3) regulates protein kinase C (PKC) activity in growth zone chondrocytes by stimulating increased phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C (PI-PLC) activity and subsequent production of diacylglycerol (DAG). In contrast, 24R,25-(OH)(2)D(3) regulates PKC activity in resting zone (RC) cells, but PLC does not appear to be involved, suggesting that phospholipase D (PLD) may play a role in DAG production. In the present study, we examined the role of PLD in the physiological response of RC cells to 24R,25-(OH)(2)D(3) and determined the role of phospholipases D, C, and A(2) as well as G-proteins in mediating the effects of vitamin D(3) metabolites on PKC activity in RC and GC cells. Inhibition of PLD with wortmannin or EDS caused a dose-dependent inhibition of basal [3H]-thymidine incorporation by RC cells and further increased the inhibitory effect of 24R,25-(OH)(2)D(3). Wortmannin also inhibited basal alkaline phosphatase activity and [35]-sulfate incorporation and decreased the stimulatory effect of 24R,25-(OH)(2)D(3). This inhibitory effect of wortmannin was not seen in cultures treated with the PI-3-kinase inhibitor LY294002, verifying that wortmannin affected PLD. Wortmannin also inhibited basal PKC activity and partially blocked the stimulatory effect of 24R,25-(OH)(2)D(3) on this enzyme activity. Neither inhibition of PI-PLC with U73122, nor PC-PLC with D609, modulated PKC activity. Wortmannin had no effect on basal PLD in GC cells, nor on 1alpha,25-(OH)(2)D(3)-dependent PKC. Inhibition of PI-PLC blocked the 1alpha,25-(OH)(2)D(3)-dependent increase in PKC activity but inhibition of PC-PLC had no effect. Activation of PLA(2) with melittin inhibited basal and 24R,25-(OH)(2)D(3)-stimulated PKC in RC cells and stimulated basal and 1alpha,25-(OH)(2)D(3)-stimulated PKC in GC cells, but wortmannin had no effect on the melittin-induced changes in either cell type. Pertussis toxin modestly increased the effect of 24R,25-(OH)(2)D(3) on PKC, whereas GDPbetaS had no effect, suggesting that PLD2 is the isoform responsible. This indicates that 1alpha,25-(OH)(2)D(3) regulates PKC in GC cells via PI-PLC and PLA(2), but not PC-PLC or PLD, whereas 24R,25-(OH)(2)D(3) regulates PKC in RC cells via PLD2.

The regulatory role of protein kinase C (PKC) delta isoform in the stimulation of phospholipase D (PLD) by sphingosine-1-phosphate (SPP) in a human-airway epithelial cell line (CFNPE9o(-)) was revealed by using antisense oligodeoxynucleotide to PKCdelta, in combination with the specific inhibitor rottlerin. Cell treatment with antisense oligodeoxynucleotide, but not with sense oligodeoxynucleotide, completely eliminated PKCdelta expression and resulted in the strong inhibition of SPP-stimulated phosphatidic acid formation. Indeed, among the PKCalpha, beta, delta, epsilon and zeta isoforms expressed in these cells, only PKCdelta was activated on cell stimulation with SPP, as indicated by translocation into the membrane fraction. Furthermore, pertussis toxin and genistein eliminated both PKCdelta translocation and PLD activation. In particular, a significant reduction in phosphatidylbutanol formation by SPP was observed in the presence of 4-amino-5-(4-methylphenyl)-7-(t-butyl) pyrazolo [3,4-d] pyrimidine (PP1), an inhibitor of Src tyrosine kinase. Furthermore, the activity of Src kinase was slightly increased by SPP and inhibited by PP1. However, the level of PKCdelta tyrosine phosphorylation was not increased in SPP-stimulated cells, suggesting that Src did not directly phosphorylate PKCdelta. Finally, the level of serine phosphorylation of PLD1 and PLD2 isoforms was not changed, whereas the PLD1 isoform alone was threonine-phosphorylated in SPP-treated cells. PLD1 threonine phosphorylation was strongly inhibited by rottlerin, by anti-PKCdelta oligodeoxynucleotide and by PP1. In conclusion, in CFNPE9o(-) cells, SPP interacts with a membrane receptor linked to a G(i) type of G-protein, leading to activation of PLD, probably the PLD1 isoform, by a signalling pathway involving Src and PKCdelta.

Sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P), a metabolite of sphingomyelin degradation, stimulates interleukin-8 (IL-8) secretion in human bronchial epithelial (Beas-2B) cells. The molecular mechanisms regulating S1P-mediated IL-8 secretion are yet to be completely defined. Here we provide evidence that activation of phospholipases D1 and D2 (PLD1 and PLD2) by S1P regulates the phosphorylation of extracellular-signal-regulated kinase (ERK) and IL-8 secretion in Beas-2B cells. S1P, in a time- and dose-dependent manner, enhanced the threonine/tyrosine phosphorylation of ERK. The inhibition of S1P-induced ERK phosphorylation by pertussis toxin and PD 98059 indicated coupling of S1P receptors to G(i) and the ERK signalling cascade respectively. Treatment of Beas-2B cells with butan-1-ol, but not butan-3-ol, abrogated the S1P-induced phosphorylation of Raf-1 and ERK, suggesting that PLD is involved in this activation. The roles of PLD1 and PLD2 in ERK activation and IL-8 secretion activated by S1P were investigated by infecting cells with adenoviral constructs of wild-type and catalytically inactive mutants of PLD1 and PLD2. Infection of Beas-2B cells with the wild-type constructs resulted in the activation of PLD1 and PLD2 by S1P and PMA. Also, the enhanced production of [(32)P]phosphatidic acid and [(32)P]phosphatidylbutanol in the presence of butan-1-ol and the increased phosphorylation of ERK by S1P were blocked by the catalytically inactive mutants hPLD1-K898R and mPLD2-K758R. Transient transfection of Beas-2B cells with human PLD1 and mouse PLD2 cDNAs potentiated S1P-mediated IL-8 secretion compared with vector controls. In addition, PD 98059 attenuated IL-8 secretion induced by S1P in a dose-dependent fashion. These results demonstrate that both PLD1 and PLD2 participate in S1P stimulation of ERK phosphorylation and IL-8 secretion in bronchial epithelial cells.

Both known isoforms of phospholipase (PL) D, PLD1 and PLD2, require phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate for activity. However, PLD2 is fully active in the presence of this phospholipid, whereas PLD1 activation is dependent on additional factors such as ADP-ribosylation factor-1 (ARF-1) and protein kinase Calpha. We find that mastoparan, an activator of G(i) and mast cells, stimulates an intrinsic PLD activity, most likely PLD2, in fractions enriched in plasma membranes from rat basophilic leukemia 2H3 mast cells. Overexpression of PLD2, but not of PLD1, results in a large increase in the mastoparan-inducible PLD activity in membrane fractions, particularly those enriched in plasma membranes. As in previous studies, expressed PLD2 is localized primarily in the plasma membrane and PLD1 in granule membranes. Studies with pertussis toxin and other agents indicate that mastoparan stimulates PLD2 independently of G(i), ARF-1, protein kinase C, and calcium. Kinetic studies indicate that mastoparan interacts synergistically with phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate and that oleate, itself a weak stimulant of PLD2 at low concentrations, is a competitive inhibitor of mastoparan stimulation of PLD2. Therefore, mastoparan may be useful for investigating the regulation of PLD2, particularly in view of the well studied molecular interactions of mastoparan with certain other strategic signaling proteins.

Lysophosphatidate (LPA) mediates multiple cellular responses via heterotrimeric G protein coupled LPA-1, LPA-2, and LPA-3 receptors. Many G protein-coupled receptors stimulate ERK following tyrosine phosphorylation of growth factor receptors; however, the mechanism(s) of transactivation of receptor tyrosine kinases are not well defined. Here, we provide evidence for the involvement of phospholipase D (PLD) in LPA-mediated transactivation of platelet-derived growth factor receptor-beta (PDGF-R beta). In primary cultures of human bronchial epithelial cells (HBEpCs), LPA stimulated tyrosine phosphorylation of PDGF-R beta and threonine/tyrosine phosphorylation of ERK1/2. The LPA-mediated activation of ERK and tyrosine phosphorylation of PDGF-R beta was attenuated by tyrphostin AG 1296, an inhibitor of PDGF-R kinase, suggesting transactivation of PDGF-R by LPA. Furthermore, LPA-, but not PDGF beta-chain homodimer-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of PDGF-R beta was partially blocked by pertussis toxin, indicating coupling of LPA-R(s) to Gi. Exposure of HBEpCs to LPA activated PLD. Butan-1-ol, which acts as an acceptor of phosphatidate generated by the PLD pathway, blocked LPA-mediated transactivation of PDGF-R beta. This effect was not seen with butan-3-ol, suggesting PLD involvement. The role of PLD1 and PLD2 in the PDGF-R beta transactivation by LPA was investigated by infection of cells with adenoviral constructs of wild type and catalytically inactive mutants of PLD. LPA activated both PLD1 and PLD2 in HBEpCs; however, infection of cells with cDNA for wild type PLD2, but not PLD1, increased the tyrosine phosphorylation of PDGF-R beta in response to LPA. Also, the LPA-mediated tyrosine phosphorylation of PDGF-R beta was attenuated by the catalytically inactive mutant mPLD2-K758R. Infection of HBEpCs with adenoviral constructs of wild type hPLD1, mPLD2, and the inactive mutants of hPLD1 and mPLD2 resulted in association of PLD2 wild type and inactive mutant proteins with the PDGF-R beta compared with PLD1. These results show for the first time that transactivation of PDGF-R beta by LPA in HBEpCs is regulated by PLD2.

Recent studies highlight the existence of an autonomous nuclear lipid metabolism related to cellular proliferation. However, the importance of nuclear phosphatidylcholine (PC) metabolism is poorly understood. Therefore, we were interested in nuclear PCs as a source of second messengers and, particularly, nuclear phospholipase D (PLD) identification in membrane-free nuclei isolated from pig aorta vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs). Using immunoblot experiment, in vitro PLD assay with fluorescent substrate and confocal microscopy analysis, we demonstrated that only PLD1 is expressed in VSMC nucleus, whereas PLD1 and PLD2 are present in VSMC. Inhibition of RhoA and protein kinase Czeta (PKCzeta) by C3-exoenzyme and PKCzeta pseudosubstrate inhibitor, respectively, conducted a decrease of phosphatidylethanol production. On the other hand, treatment of intact VSMCs, but not nuclei, with phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) inhibitors prevented partially nuclear PLD1 activity, indicating for the first time that PI3K may have a role in nuclear PLD regulation. In addition, lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) or angiotensin II treatment of VSMCs resulted in an increase of intranuclear PLD activity, whereas platelet-derived growth factor and epidermal growth factor have no significant effect. Moreover, pertussis toxin induced a decrease of LPA-stimulated nuclear PLD1 activity, suggesting that heterotrimeric G(i)/G(0) protein involvement in intranuclear PLD1 regulation. We also show that LPA-induced nuclear PLD1 activation implied PI3K/PKCzeta pathway activation and PKCzeta nuclear translocation as well as nuclear RhoA activation. Thus, the characterization of an endogenous PLD1 that could regulate PC metabolism inside VSMC nucleus provides a new role for this enzyme in control of vascular fibroproliferative disorders.

Lysophosphatidate (LPA) stimulates cell migration and division through a family of G-protein-coupled receptors. Lipid phosphate phosphatase-1 (LPP1) regulates the degradation of extracellular LPA as well as the intracellular accumulation of lipid phosphates. Here we show that increasing the catalytic activity of LPP1 decreased the pertussis toxin-sensitive stimulation of fibroblast migration by LPA and an LPA-receptor agonist that could not be dephosphorylated. Conversely, knockdown of endogenous LPP1 activity increased LPA-induced migration. However, LPP1 did not affect PDGF- or endothelin-induced migration of fibroblasts in Transwell chamber and "wound healing" assays. Thus, in addition to degrading exogenous LPA, LPP1 controls signaling downstream of LPA receptors. Consistent with this conclusion, LPP1 expression decreased phospholipase D (PLD) stimulation by LPA and PDGF, and phosphatidate accumulation. This LPP1 effect was upstream of PLD activation in addition to the possible metabolism of phosphatidate to diacylglycerol. PLD(2) activation was necessary for LPA-, but not PDGF-induced migration. Increased LPP1 expression also decreased the LPA-, but not the PDGF-induced activation of important proteins involved in fibroblast migration. These included decreased LPA-induced activation of ERK and Rho, and the basal activities of Rac and Cdc42. However, ERK and Rho activation were not downstream targets of LPA-induced PLD(2) activity. We conclude that the intracellular actions of LPP1 play important functions in regulating LPA-induced fibroblast migration through PLD2. LPP1 also controls PDGF-induced phosphatidate formation. These results shed new light on the roles of LPP1 in controlling wound healing and the growth and metastasis of tumors.
