Molecular mechanism of lysophosphatidic acid-induced hypertensive response.


ABSTRACT: Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) is a blood-derived bioactive lipid with numerous biological activities exerted mainly through six defined G protein-coupled receptors (LPA1-LPA6). LPA was first identified as a vasoactive compound because it induced transient hypertension when injected intravenously in rodents. Here, we examined the molecular mechanism underlying the LPA-induced hypertensive response. The LPA-induced hypertensive response was significantly attenuated by pretreatment with a Rho kinase inhibitor, which blocks G?12/13 signaling. Consistent with this, the response was weakened in KO mice of LPA4, a G?12/13-coupling LPA receptor. KO mice of another G?12/13-coupling LPA receptor, LPA6, also showed an attenuated LPA-induced hypertensive response. However, LPA6 KO mice also displayed attenuated pressor responses to an adrenergic agent and abnormal blood vessel formation. Using several LPA analogs with varied affinity for each LPA receptor, we found a good correlation between the hypertensive and LPA4 agonistic activities. Incubated mouse plasma, which contained abundant LPA, also induced a hypertensive response. Interestingly the response was completely abolished when the plasma was incubated in the presence of an ATX inhibitor. Together, these results indicate that circulating LPA produced by ATX contributes to the elevation of blood pressure through multiple LPA receptors, mainly LPA4.
