Abstract
Cardiac dysfunction due to ischemia–reperfusion (I/R) is associated with marked changes in membrane function and subsequent Ca2+-handling abnormalities in cardiomyocytes. The membrane abnormalities in hearts subjected to I/R arise primarily from oxidative stress as a consequence of increased formation of reactive oxygen species and other oxidants, as well as reduced antioxidant defenses. Little is known, however, about the nature and mechanisms of the sarcolemmal membrane changes with respect to phospholipase C (PLC)-related signaling events. In addition, the mechanisms involved in protection of the postischemic myocardium and in ischemic preconditioning with respect to PLC function need to be established. Accordingly, this article reviews the historical and current information on PLC-mediated signal transduction mechanisms in I/R, as well as outlining future directions that should be addressed. Such information will extend our knowledge of ischemic heart disease and help improve its therapy.

Abstract
Although the myocardial phospholipid and fatty acid content have profound effects on the heart function, very little information is available on the effects of restricted maternal protein intake during pregnancy on the phospholipid profile and fatty acid content of the developing heart. The present study was therefore undertaken to examine the effect of pregnant dams fed diets containing either 180 (normal) or 90 (low) g/kg casein diet for 2 wk before mating and throughout pregnancy on myocardial phospholipid and fatty acid content of male offspring. Whereas no changes in phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylethanolamine were detected, increases in lysophosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylserine, and sphingomyelin were seen in the hearts of offspring in the low-protein (LP) group. Analysis of cardiac fatty acids revealed that although the saturated fatty acid (myristate, palmitate, and stearate) levels were significantly reduced, the unsaturated fatty acid (linoleate, arachidonate, and decosahexanoate) levels were significantly increased in the developing heart in the LP group. Furthermore, assessment of nuclear transcription factors involved in regulation of cardiac metabolism revealed a decrease in myocyte enhancer factor-2C mRNA levels in the LP group, whereas an increase in the mRNA amount of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-alpha was observed in this group. These results demonstrate that maternal LP diet can induce changes in the phospholipid profile and fatty acid content of the developing heart, which may have implications for metabolism of the neonatal heart.

Abstract
Phospholipase C (PLC) influences cardiac function. This study examined PLC isozymes of the cardiac sarcolemma (SL) membrane and in the cytosol compartment in isolated perfused rat hearts subjected to global ischemia for 30 min followed by up to 30 min of reperfusion. Although the total SL PLC activity was decreased in ischemia and increased upon reperfusion, differential changes in PLC isozymes were detected. PLC beta(1) mRNA and SL protein abundance and activity were increased in ischemia, with concomitant decreases in activity and protein level in the cytosol. On the other hand, upon reperfusion, PLC beta(1) activity was decreased, but remained higher than control values. Although no change in the PLC delta(1) mRNA level in ischemia was detected, SL PLC delta(1) activity and content were depressed. Furthermore, in the cytosol, PLC delta(1) activity was increased, but the protein level decreased. SL PLC gamma(1) activity was decreased, independent of gene expression and protein content; however, decreases in the activity and protein abundance were detected in the cytosol. Increases in PLC gamma(1) and delta(1) activities occurred upon reperfusion, but were not accounted for by altered mRNA and protein levels. The results indicate that ischemia-reperfusion induces differential changes in PLC isozymes.

Abstract
The cardiac sarcolemmal membrane cis -unsaturated fatty acid-sensitive phospholipase D hydrolyzes phosphatidylcholine to form phosphatidic acid. The functional significance of phosphatidic acid is indicated by its ability to increase [Ca(2+)](i)and augment cardiac contractile performance via the activation of phospholipase C. Accordingly, we tested the hypothesis that a defect occurs in the membrane level of phosphatidic acid and/or the responsiveness of cardiomyocytes to phosphatidic acid in congestive heart failure due to myocardial infarction. Myocardial infarction was produced in rats by ligation of the left coronary artery while sham-operated animals served as control. At 8 weeks after surgery, the experimental animals were at a stage of moderate congestive heart failure. Compared to sham controls, phosphatidic acid-mediated increase in [Ca(2+)](i), as determined by the fura 2-AM technique, was significantly reduced in failing cardiomyocytes. Immunoprecipitation of sarcolemmal phospholipase C isoenzymes using specific monoclonal antibodies revealed that the stimulation of phospholipase C gamma(1)and delta(1)phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate hydrolyzing activities by phosphatidic acid was decreased in the failing heart. Although the activity of phospholipase C beta(1)in the failing heart was higher than the control, phosphatidic acid did not stimulate this isoform in control sarcolemma, and produced an inhibitory action in the failing heart preparation. Furthermore, the specific binding of phosphatidic acid to phospholipase C gamma(1)and delta(1)isoenzymes was decreased, whereas binding to phospholipase beta(1)was absent in the failing heart. A reduction in the intramembranal level of phosphatidic acid derived via cis -unsaturated fatty acid-sensitive phospholipase D was also seen in the failing heart. These findings suggest that a defect in phosphatidic acid-mediated signal pathway in sarcolemma may represent a novel mechanism of heart dysfunction in congestive heart failure.

Abstract
Several studies have suggested that myocardial phospholipase D (PLD) and its hydrolytic product, phosphatidic acid (PtdOH), may regulate Ca2+ movements and contractile performance of the heart. Since abnormal intracellular Ca2+ handling is a major factor of myocardial dysfunction in chronic diabetes, we examined subcellular changes in PLD activity in myocardium from insulin-dependent diabetic rats. Diabetes in rats was induced by a single i.v. injection of streptozotocin (65 mg/kg body wt) and 8 weeks later the ventricular tissue was processed for the isolation of sarcolemma, sarcoplasmic reticulum and mitochondria. Compared to age-matched controls, the sarcolemmal, sarcoplasmic reticular and mitochondrial PLD activities were significantly depressed in the diabetic animals. The depressed sarcolemmal PLD activity was normalized, whereas the sarcoplasmic reticular and mitochondrial enzyme activities were partially reversed upon treating the 6-week diabetic rats with insulin for a period of 2 weeks. These data suggest that the reduction of PLD-derived PtdOH may lead to an impairment in this phospholipid signal transduction pathway and subsequent cardiac dysfunction in chronic diabetes.

Abstract
1-Acyl lysophosphatidylcholine prepared from egg yolk has been chemically reacylated to form decanoyl, dodecanoyl, myristoyl and palmitoyl derivatives of phosphatidylcholine. The liposomes formed by these semi-synthetic phospholipids have been characterized by calorimetry, X-ray diffraction and fluorescence probe methods. Asymmetric phosphatidylcholines tend to promote formation of excimers of a codispersed fluorescent phospholipid (1-palmitoyl-sn-2-(1-pyrenedecanoyl)-L-alpha-phosphatidic acid) (2 mol%). Excimer formation is correlated with the rate of hydrolysis of the fluorescent anionic phospholipid by Crotalus venom phospholipase A2. Codispersion with the semi-synthetic phosphatidylcholine of cholesterol or unsaturated fluid lecithin modulated both excimer formation and the susceptibility of the fluorescent probe to hydrolysis by venom phospholipase A2 at 22 degrees C. Similar results were obtained with hydrolysis of a radiolabelled substrate, 1-palmitoyl-sn-2-[1-14C]linoleoylphosphatidylethanolamine, codispersed with the semi-synthetic phosphatidylcholine. Enrichment of rat hepatocyte plasma membranes with semi-synthetic asymmetric phosphatidylcholines was mediated by incubation of membranes with phospholipid dispersions in the presence of a phospholipid exchange protein. Enrichment of the membranes with semi-synthetic phosphatidylcholines of between 30 and 60% of the membrane phosphatidylcholine was achieved. The resulting alteration of the biomembrane is associated with a decreased activity of endogenous membrane phospholipase A2 acting on extramembranous radiolabelled substrate vesicles. By contrast, the activity of acyl-CoA:lysophospholipid acyltransferase is increased in membranes enriched with highly asymmetric phospholipids.

Abstract
In order to extend the static information of immunolabelling sulphogalactolipids in fixed boar spermatozoa, a fluorescent sulphogalactolipid analogue, galactose(3-sulphate)-beta 1–1′[(N-lissamine rhodaminyl)-12-aminodode-canoyl]-sphingosine, was incorporated into plasma membranes of living spermatozoa and its lateral distribution over the sperm head was studied. The fluorescent lipid was enriched in the apical ridge subdomain of freshly ejaculated sperm cells. After sperm binding to the zona pellucida the lipid redistributed to the equatorial segment of the sperm surface. A similar shift occurred during capacitation in vitro with 2 mM CaCl2 or with 4% (w/v) bovine serum albumin. The desulphated derivative galactose-beta 1–1′[(N-lissamine rhodaminyl)-12-aminododecanoyl]-sphingosine was also incorporated into the plasma membrane of freshly ejaculated sperm cells and clearly stained the apical ridge subdomain and the (pre)-equatorial subdomains of the sperm heads. The desulphogalactolipid analogue showed a slightly faster migration to the equatorial segment of the sperm plasma membrane than did its sulphated counterpart. The measured fluorescence intensity distributions correlated linearly with the spatial probe distribution, which was checked by fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy. The observed migration of the incorporated glycolipids precedes the acrosome reaction and is one of the underlying molecular events likely to be important in the process of sperm capacitation. The results of this study suggest that lipid phase segregation is an important driving force for the organization of the sperm head plasma membrane into subdomains.
