Sustained phospholipase C stimulation of H9c2 cardiomyoblasts by vasopressin induces an increase in CDP-diacylglycerol synthase 1 (CDS1) through protein kinase C and cFos.

ABSTRACT: Chronic stimulation (24?h) with vasopressin leads to hypertrophy in H9c2 cardiomyoblasts and this is accompanied by continuous activation of phospholipase C. Consequently, vasopressin stimulation leads to a depletion of phosphatidylinositol levels. The substrate for phospholipase C is phosphatidylinositol (4, 5) bisphosphate (PIP2) and resynthesis of phosphatidylinositol and its subsequent phosphorylation maintains the supply of PIP2. The resynthesis of PI requires the conversion of phosphatidic acid to CDP-diacylglycerol catalysed by CDP-diacylglycerol synthase (CDS) enzymes. To examine whether the resynthesis of PI is regulated by vasopressin stimulation, we focussed on the CDS enzymes. Three CDS enzymes are present in mammalian cells: CDS1 and CDS2 are integral membrane proteins localised at the endoplasmic reticulum and TAMM41 is a peripheral protein localised in the mitochondria. Vasopressin selectively stimulates an increase CDS1 mRNA that is dependent on protein kinase C, and can be inhibited by the AP-1 inhibitor, T-5224. Vasopressin also stimulates an increase in cFos protein which is inhibited by a protein kinase C inhibitor. We conclude that vasopressin stimulates CDS1 mRNA through phospholipase C, protein kinase C and cFos and provides a potential mechanism for maintenance of phosphatidylinositol levels during long-term phospholipase C signalling.
