Synergistic activation of phospholipase D by protein kinase C- and G-protein-mediated pathways in streptolysin O-permeabilized HL60 cells.

ABSTRACT: Stimulation of phospholipase D (PLD) by cell surface receptors has been observed in many cell types. We have investigated the mechanism of activation of this enzyme in undifferentiated HL60 cells. GTP analogues and Ca2+ (buffered in the nanomolar to micromolar range) were introduced into HL60 cells in the presence of the permeabilizing agent, streptolysin O. We report that guanosine 5'-[gamma-thio]triphosphate (GTP[S]) is a potent activator of phospholipase D when Ca2+ is available at micromolar levels. Phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate or Ca2+ alone can also stimulate PLD, but to a limited extent. The activation of PLD by GTP[S] can be partially dissociated from GTP[S]-stimulated phosphoinositide-specific phospholipase C, suggesting that a G-protein may be directly involved in regulating PLD. However, maximal activation of PLD only occurs under conditions that are permissive to phospholipase C stimulation. We conclude that PLD activation is under dual control, i.e. protein kinase C- as well as G-protein-mediated regulation. Synergistic activation occurs when both pathways are simultaneously stimulated. We conclude that full activation of PLD requires protein kinase C, increased Ca2+ and a GTP-binding protein. Evidence for cytosolic components that may also be involved in obtaining full activation of PLD is also presented.

Project description:BackgroundProtein kinase D (PKD) constitutes a novel family of serine/threonine protein kinases implicated in fundamental biological activities including cell proliferation, survival, migration, and immune responses. Activation of PKD in these cellular activities has been linked to many extracellular signals acting through antigen receptor engagement, receptor tyrosine kinases, as well as G protein-coupled receptors. In the latter case, it is generally believed that the G? subunits of the Gq family are highly effective in mediating PKD activation, whereas little is known with regard to the ability of G?? dimers and other G? subunits to stimulate PKD. It has been suggested that the interaction between G?? and the PH domain of PKD, or the G??-induced PLC?/PKC activity is critical for the induction of PKD activation. However, the relative contribution of these two apparently independent events to G??-mediated PKD activation has yet to be addressed.ResultsIn this report, we demonstrate that among various members in the four G protein families, only the G? subunits of the Gq family effectively activate all the three PKD isoforms (PKD1/2/3), while G? subunits of other G protein families (Gs, Gi, and G12) are ineffective. Though the G? subunits of Gi family are unable to stimulate PKD, receptors linked to Gi proteins are capable of triggering PKD activation in cell lines endogenously expressing (HeLa cells and Jurkat T-cells) or exogenously transfected with (HEK293 cells) G??-sensitive PLC?2/3 isoforms. This indicates that the Gi-mediated PKD activation is dependent on the released G?? dimers upon stimulation. Further investigation on individual G?? combinations (i.e. G?1 with G?1-13) revealed that, even if they can stimulate the PLC? activity in a comparable manner, only those G?1? dimers with ?2, ?3, ?4, ?5, ?7, and ?10 can serve as effective activators of PKD. We also demonstrated that Gi-mediated PKD activation is essential for the SDF-1?-induced chemotaxis on Jurkat T-cells.ConclusionsOur current report illustrates that G?? dimers from the Gi proteins may activate PKD in a PLC?2/3-dependent manner, and the specific identities of G? components within G?? dimers may determine this stimulatory action.

Project description:Activation of human T lymphocytes leads to the phosphorylation of the CD3-antigen gamma polypeptide. We have investigated a possible role for protein kinase C (PKC) in mediating this phosphorylation event by using T cells permeabilized with streptolysin-O in the presence of 120 mM-K+ buffers containing Ca2+-EGTA. The gamma-chain was phosphorylated by [gamma-32P]ATP in permeabilized T lymphoblasts in the presence of phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate (Pdbu) or phytohaemagglutinin (PHA). Ca2+ alone in the range 0.5-1.0 microM also induced gamma-chain phosphorylation in some T-lymphoblast preparations; that in Jurkat-6 cells occurred at lower concentrations (50-500 nM). Two experimental approaches were used to investigate the possible involvement of PKC. Firstly, when permeabilization was carried out in buffer lacking free Ca2+, PKC was lost from the cells, and gamma-chain phosphorylation could then no longer be induced on subsequent addition of Pdbu or PHA in 400 nM-Ca2+, or 800 nM-Ca2+ alone, to permeabilized cells. However, when permeabilization was carried out in the presence of these three agents, PKC was translocated to intracellular membranes, and subsequent addition of [gamma-32P]ATP to these cells then resulted in gamma-chain phosphorylation. In the second approach, induction of gamma-chain phosphorylation by Pdbu, 1-oleoyl-2-acetylglycerol, 1,2-diolein, PHA or Ca2+ alone was effectively blocked by permeabilizing T cells in the presence of a PKC pseudosubstrate peptide (50 microM). Pseudosubstrate concentrations in the range 7-20 microM inhibited gamma-chain phosphorylation by 50%. In contrast, addition of four other 'irrelevant' basic peptides (50 microM) did not result in detectable inhibition, and 50 microM-pseudosubstrate did not inhibit the phosphorylation of 17 other polypeptides isolated from permeabilized T cells. These data suggest that Pdbu-, 1,2-diacylglycerol-, PHA- and Ca2+-induced phosphorylation of the CD3-antigen gamma chain in permeabilized T cells is mediated by PKC.

Project description:Human platelets containing dense granules labelled with 5-hydroxy[14C]tryptamine ([14C]5-HT) were permeabilized by exposure to streptolysin O (SLO) in the presence of 4 mM [gamma-32P]ATP. Addition of either 100 nM phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) or of Ca2+ (pCa 5) at the same time as SLO induced secretion of dense-granule [14C]5-HT and the phosphorylation of pleckstrin by protein kinase C (PKC). Ca2+ also induced phosphorylation of myosin P-light chains. Guanosine 5'-[gamma-thio]triphosphate (GTP[S], 100 microM) did not stimulate secretion from SLO-permeabilized platelets in the absence of Ca2+ (pCa>9), but greatly potentiated secretion in the presence of low PMA (10 nM) or low Ca2+ (pCa 6). However, GTP[S] did stimulate myosin P-light-chain phosphorylation in the absence of Ca2+, an effect that was associated with morphological changes, including granule centralization. Inhibition of PKC and of pleckstrin phosphorylation by Ro 31-8220 blocked secretion induced by PMA or by GTP[S] and PMA in the absence of Ca2+, but did not prevent the GTP[S]-induced phosphorylation of myosin P-light chains or secretion induced by Ca2+ at pCa 5. When the time period between exposure of platelets to SLO and challenge at pCa>9 with PMA or with GTP[S] and PMA was increased, there were rapid and parallel decreases in the secretion and pleckstrin phosphorylation responses, which were lost after 3-5 min. In contrast, the responsiveness of secretion to Ca2+ (pCa 5) or to GTP[S] and Ca2+ (pCa 6) persisted for at least 10 min after exposure of platelets to SLO, although the ability of pleckstrin to undergo phosphorylation was still lost after 3-5 min. Both PKC and pleckstrin were undetectable within platelets after 5 min exposure to SLO. The results suggest that the loss of responsiveness to PMA or to GTP[S] and PMA is attributable to the leakage of PKC (and possibly pleckstrin) from the platelets, whereas secretion stimulated by Ca2+ or by GTP[S] and Ca2+ utilizes membrane-associated Ca2+- and GTP-binding proteins and occurs independently of PKC activation.
