Enzyme-Assisted Synthesis of High-Purity, Chain-Deuterated 1-Palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine.

ABSTRACT: 1-Palmitoyl-d 31-2-oleoyl-d 32-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (POPC-d 63) with the palmitoyl and oleoyl chains deuterium-labeled was produced in three steps from 1-palmitoyl-2-hydroxy-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine, deuterated palmitic acid, and deuterated oleic anhydride. Esterification at the sn-2 position was achieved under standard chemical conditions, using DMAP to catalyze the reaction between the 2-lysolipid and oleic anhydride-d 64. Complete regioselective sn-1 acyl substitution was achieved in two steps using operationally simple, enzyme-catalyzed regioselective hydrolysis and esterification to substitute the sn-1 chain for a perdeuterated analogue. This method provides chain-deuterated POPC with high chemical purity (>96%) and complete regiopurity, useful for a variety of experimental techniques. This chemoenzymatic semisynthetic approach is a general, modular method of producing highly pure, mixed-acyl phospholipids, where the advantages of both chemical synthesis (efficiency, high yields) and biocatalytic synthesis (specificity, nontoxicity) are realized.

Project description:The generation of phospholipid oxidation products in atherosclerosis, sepsis, and lung pathologies affects endothelial barrier function, which exerts significant consequences on disease outcomes in general. Our group previously showed that oxidized 1-palmitoyl-2-arachidonyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (OxPAPC) at low concentrations increases endothelial cell (EC) barrier function, but decreases it at higher concentrations. In this study, we determined the mechanisms responsible for the pulmonary endothelial cell barrier dysfunction induced by high OxPAPC concentrations. OxPAPC at a range of 5-20 μg/ml enhanced EC barriers, as indicated by increased transendothelial electrical resistance. In contrast, higher OxPAPC concentrations (50-100 μg/ml) rapidly increased EC permeability, which was accompanied by increased total cell protein tyrosine (Tyr) phosphorylation, phosphorylation at Tyr-418, the activation of Src kinase, and the phosphorylation of adherens junction (AJ) protein vascular endothelial cadherin (VE-cadherin) at Tyr-731 and Tyr-658, which was not observed in ECs stimulated with low OxPAPC doses. The early tyrosine phosphorylation of VE-cadherin was linked to the dissociation of VE-cadherin-p120-catenin/β-catenin complexes and VE-cadherin internalization, whereas low OxPAPC doses promoted the formation of VE-cadherin-p120-catenin/β-catenin complexes. High but not low doses of OxPAPC increased the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and protein oxidation. The inhibition of Src by PP2 and ROS production by N-acetyl cysteine inhibited the disassembly of VE-cadherin-p120-catenin complexes, and attenuated high OxPAPC-induced EC barrier disruption. These results show the differential effects of OxPAPC doses on VE-cadherin-p120-catenin complex assembly and EC barrier function. These data suggest that the rapid tyrosine phosphorylation of VE-cadherin and other potential targets mediated by Src and ROS-dependent mechanisms plays a key role in the dissociation of AJ complexes and EC barrier dysfunction induced by high OxPAPC doses.
