Sodium vanadate (11 microM) amplified the PGI2 production of rat liver cells (the C-9 cell line) incubated with thrombin, platelet activating factor, lysine-vasopressin, the Ca2(+)-ionophore A-23187, interleukin-1 beta, 12-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate, teleocidin, epidermal growth factor, palytoxin, thapsigargin and colchicine but not that stimulated by exogenous arachidonic acid. Sodium vanadate (2.2 microM) also amplified PGF2 alpha production of dog kidney cells (the MDCK cell line) incubated with norepinephrine and, at 0.4 microM, PGI2 production of bovine aorta smooth muscle cells stimulated by serotonin. Sodium vanadate (55 microM) did not affect production of PGE2 and PGF2 alpha in rat basophil leukemia cells (the RBL-1 cell line) stimulated by the Ca2(+)-ionophore A-23187, but did inhibit synthesis of peptide-containing leukotrienes and 12-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid. When used with cultured cells at micromolar concentrations, vanadate is known to inhibit protein tyrosine-phosphate phosphatases. These results suggest that in some cells deesterification of lipids is positively regulated, at least in part, by phosphorylation of tyrosine whereas in leukocytes, lipoxygenase activities are negatively regulated, at least in part, by phosphorylation of tyrosine.
