Abstract
Phospholipase D1 (PLD1) plays a known role in several differentiation processes, but its role in adipogenic differentiation remains unknown. In the present study, we identified PLD1 as a negative regulator of adipogenic differentiation. We showed that PLD activity was downregulated by both 3-Isobutyl-1-methylxanthine (IBMX) and insulin upon induction of differentiation in 3T3-L1 adipogenic cells. In line with this observation, PLD activity decreased in both high fat diet (HFD)-fed mice and ob/ob mice. We also found that differentiation of 3T3-L1 preadipocytes was enhanced by the depletion of PLD1 levels or inhibition of PLD1 activity by VU0155069, a PLD1-specific inhibitor. Conversely, treatment with phosphatidic acid (PA), a PLD product, and overexpression of PLD1 both caused a decrease in adipogenic differentiation. Moreover, the elevated differentiation in PLD1-knockdown 3T3-L1 cells was reduced by either PA treatment or PLD1 expression, confirming negative roles of PLD1 and PA in adipogenic differentiation. Further investigation revealed that PA displaces DEP domain-containing mTOR-interacting protein (DEPTOR) from mTORC1, which subsequently phosphorylates insulin receptor substrate-1 (IRS-1) at serine 636/639 in 3T3-L1 cells. Taken together, our findings provide convincing evidence for a direct role of PLD1 in adipogenic differentiation by regulating IRS-1 phosphorylation at serine 636/639 through DEPTOR displacement and mTOR activation.

Abstract
Ruscogenin, a natural steroidal sapogenin, presents in both food and medicinal plants. It has been found to exert significant anti-inflammatory activities. Considering that activation of neutrophil is a key feature of inflammatory diseases, this study was performed to investigate the inhibitory effect of ruscogenin and its underlying mechanisms responsible for neutrophil activation. Ruscogenin displayed potent antioxidative effects against Formyl-Met-Leu-Phe (FMLP)-induced extra- and intracellular superoxide generation in mouse bone marrow neutrophils, with IC50 values of 1.07±0.32 μM and 1.77±0.46 μM, respectively. Phorbol myristate acetate (PMA)-elicited extra- and intracellular superoxide generation were also suppressed by ruscogenin, with IC50 values of 1.56±0.46 μM and 1.29±0.49 μM, respectively. However, ruscogenin showed weak inhibition in NaF-induced response. Inhibition of superoxide generation was mediated neither by a superoxide-scavenging ability nor by a cytotoxic effect. Furthermore, ruscogenin inhibited the membrane translocation of p47phox and p67phox. It reduced FMLP-induced phosphorylation of cytosolic phospholipase A2 (cPLA2) and p21-activated kinase (PAK). The cellular cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) levels and protein kinase A (PKA) expression were increased by ruscogenin. Moreover, ruscogenin inhibited phosphorylation of protein kinase B (Akt), p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (p38MAPK), extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1 and 2 (ERK1/2), and c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK). In addition, the inhibitory effects of ruscogenin on superoxide production and the phosphorylation of Akt, p38MAPK, and ERK1/2 were reversed by PKA inhibitor (H89), suggesting a PKA-dependent mechanism. In summary, our data suggest that ruscogenin inhibits activation of neutrophil through cPLA2, PAK, Akt, MAPKs, cAMP, and PKA signaling pathways. Increased PKA activity is associated with suppression of the phosphorylation of Akt, p38MAPK, and ERK1/2 pathways.

Abstract
Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), an eicosanoid that modulates inflammation, inhibits several chemoattractant-elicited functions in neutrophils such as chemotaxis, production of superoxide anions, adhesion, secretion of cytotoxic enzymes and synthesis of leukotriene B4. We previously reported that PGE2 inhibits the fMLP signaling pathway that leads to PLD activation through suppression of PI3-Kgamma activity and the decreased recruitment to membranes of PLD activation factors, PKC, Rho and Arf-GTPases. This effect is mediated via the EP2 receptors known to raise cAMP in cells. The inhibition of most fMLP-induced functional responses by PGE2 via EP2 receptors is mediated by PKA, except the chemotactic response. We have investigated the role of PKA in the EP2-mediated inhibition of the PLD activation pathway. H-89, a selective PKA pharmacological inhibitor suppressed the inhibitory effects of PGE2 at all stages of the PLD pathway activated by fMLP, i.e. PLD activity, translocation to membranes of PKCalpha, Rho and Arf-GTPases, calcium influx, tyrosine phosphorylation of proteins and finally translocation of p110gamma catalytic subunit of PI3-K to membranes. However, neither PLD nor PI3-Kgamma was substrate of PKA. These data provide evidence that PGE2-stimulated PKA activity regulates the PLD pathway stimulated by fMLP at the level of PI3-Kgamma and that the inhibition of PI3-Kgamma activation by PKA is a complex mechanism that remains to be completely elucidated.

Abstract
After transmission by infected mosquitoes, malaria sporozoites rapidly travel to the liver. To infect hepatocytes, sporozoites traverse Kupffer cells, but surprisingly, the parasites are not killed by these resident macrophages of the liver. Here we show that Plasmodium sporozoites and recombinant circumsporozoite protein (CSP) suppress the respiratory burst in Kupffer cells. Sporozoites and CSP increased the intracellular concentration of cyclic adenosyl mono-phosphate (cAMP) and inositol 1,4,5-triphosphate in Kupffer cells, but not in hepatocytes or liver endothelia. Preincubation with cAMP analogues or inhibition of phosphodiesterase also inhibited the respiratory burst. By contrast, adenylyl cyclase inhibition abrogated the suppressive effect of sporozoites. Selective protein kinase A (PKA) inhibitors failed to reverse the CSP-mediated blockage and stimulation of the exchange protein directly activated by cAMP (EPAC), but not PKA inhibited the respiratory burst. Both blockage of the low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein (LRP-1) with receptor-associated protein and elimination of cell surface proteoglycans inhibited the cAMP increase in Kupffer cells. We propose that by binding of CSP to LRP-1 and cell surface proteoglycans, malaria sporozoites induce a cAMP/EPAC-dependent, but PKA-independent signal transduction pathway that suppresses defence mechanisms in Kupffer cells. This allows the sporozoites to safely pass through these professional phagocytes and to develop inside neighbouring hepatocytes.

Abstract
Since stress both activates the sympathoadrenal axis and profoundly affects inflammation and inflammatory diseases, many of which are sexually dimorphic, we tested whether the effect of stress on neutrophil recruitment, a primary component of the acute inflammatory response, is sexually dimorphic. The effect of intermittent sound (over 4 days), a nonhabituating stress, on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced recruitment of neutrophils was evaluated in vivo in the rat air pouch model. At 24 h following the last stress exposure, LPS-induced neutrophil recruitment was enhanced in male rats, but not in females. When gonadectomized prepubertally and tested as adults, stress significantly inhibited the magnitude of LPS-induced neutrophil recruitment in males, while it still had no effect in gonadectomized females. In males, following adrenal denervation, the increase in LPS-induced neutrophil recruitment produced by stress was prevented. Since these data suggest that the effect of stress is dependent on the sympathoadrenal axis, we tested the hypothesis that catecholamines mediate the stress effects. In male rats, the effect of stress on LPS-induced neutrophil recruitment was significantly attenuated by continuous administration of the beta-adrenergic receptor antagonist, propranolol (4 mg kg(-1) day(-1)), during sound stress exposure, and administration of isoproterenol (10 nmoles, i.v.) significantly increased neutrophil recruitment in males, an effect that was qualitatively and quantitatively similar to the effect of stress. Propranolol significantly increased neutrophil recruitment in nonstressed female rats, but did not significantly affect neutrophil recruitment in stressed females. These findings indicate a marked male sex hormone-dependent sexual dimorphism in the sympathoadrenal-dependent effect of stress on neutrophil migration, a primary component of the inflammatory response, and suggest that the sympathoadrenal axis contributes to this effect via release of epinephrine.

Abstract
The polymorphonuclear neutrophil (PMN)-respiratory burst plays a key role in host defense and inflammatory reactions. Modulation of this key neutrophil function by endogenous agents and the mechanisms involved are poorly understood. This study was designed to analyze the mechanisms involved in the effect of adrenaline on neutrophil superoxide anions production. Using the superoxide dismutase (SOD)-inhibitable cytochrome c reduction assay, we report here that the beta-adrenergic agonist, adrenaline at physiologic concentrations (5-100 nM) inhibited formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine (fMLP)-stimulated but not phorbol-myristate-acetate (PMA)-stimulated PMN superoxide anion production. The inhibitory effect of adrenaline runs in parallel with an increase in intracellular levels of cAMP which was reversed by the protein kinase A (PKA) inhibitor H-89, suggesting a role for PKA in mediating the inhibitory effect of adrenaline on fMLP-induced superoxide production. Adrenaline at physiological concentrations did not inhibit the fMLP-stimulated membrane translocation of the NADPH oxidase components p47phox and p67phox, nor the fMLP-stimulated phosphorylation of p47phox. However, adrenaline strongly depressed the activity of the cytosolic isoform of Phospholipase A(2) (cPLA(2)). We suggest that adrenaline inhibits fMLP induced superoxide production upstream of the NADPH oxidase via a mechanism involving PKA and cPLA(2).

Abstract
The inhibition of formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine (fMLP)-induced superoxide anion (O2(.-)) generation by 2-benzyloxybenzaldehyde (CCY1a) was investigated in rat neutrophils, and the underlying mechanism of this inhibition was assessed. CCY1a concentration-dependently inhibited O2(.-) generation (IC(50)=18.5+/-4.3 microM). In cell-free systems, CCY1a failed to alter O2(.-) generation during dihydroxyfumaric acid autoxidation, in phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA)-activated neutrophil particulate NADPH oxidase preparations, or during arachidonic acid-induced NADPH oxidase activation. CCY1a increased cellular cyclic AMP (cAMP) levels in a time- and concentration-dependent manner, and this cAMP-elevating effect was inhibited by the adenylyl cyclase inhibitor 9-(tetrahydro-2'-furyl)adenine (SQ22536), adenosine deaminase (ADA), and the adenosine receptor antagonist 8-(p-sulfophenyl)theophylline. In neutrophils, inhibition of O2(.-) generation by CCY1a was partially reversed by the protein kinase A inhibitor (9R,10S,12S)-2,3,9,10,11,12-hexahydro-10-hydroxy-9-methyl-1-oxo-9,12-epoxy-1H-diindolo[1,2,3-fg:3',2',1'-kl]pyrrolo[3,4-l][1,6]benzodiazocine-10-carboxylic acid, hexyl ester (KT5720). CCY1a did not affect fMLP-induced p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase phosphorylation, but concentration-dependently attenuated the phosphorylation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) and Akt (IC(50) about 31.3 and 19.4 microM, respectively). The plateau phase, but not the initial spike, of fMLP-induced [Ca2+](i) changes was inhibited by CCY1a in a concentration-dependent manner. CCY1a inhibition of Ca2+ entry, ERK, and Akt phosphorylation was not prevented by SQ22536 or ADA. fMLP-induced phospholipase D (PLD) activation was inhibited by CCY1a (IC(50)=13.9+/-2.0 microM). ADA and KT5720 did not prevent the inhibition of PLD activation by CCY1a. Collectively, these results indicate that the inhibition by CCY1a of fMLP-induced O2(.-) generation in rat neutrophils can probably be attributed to the increase in cAMP levels, and to the blockade of Ca2+ entry, suppression of Akt, and PLD activation via cAMP-independent mechanisms.

Abstract
The signal transduction pathways that trigger dephosphorylation of cofilin in neutrophils stimulated with the chemoattractant fMet-Leu-Phe (fMLP) were investigated with a phospho-specific antibody that recognized cofilin only when this protein was phosphorylated on ser-3. Unlike earlier studies that monitored changes in (32)P-labeled cofilin, this Ab allowed us to monitor changes in the total mass of phosphorylated cofilin during neutrophil stimulation. Neutrophils stimulated with fMLP (1.0 microM) for 1.0 min exhibited a massive loss (> 85%) of phosphate from cofilin, which was blocked by an antagonist of phosphoinositide-specific phospholipase C (PI-PLC) (1.0 microM U73122). Products of PI-PLC, sn-1,2-diglyceride and inositol (1,4,5)-trisphosphate, are known to activate protein kinase C (PKC) and increase intracellular Ca(2+), respectively. Treatment of neutrophils with agents that selectively activate PKC [4beta-phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) ] or cellular Ca(2+) (ionophore A23187) also triggered dephosphorylation of cofilin. Both a nonspecific (100 nM staurosporine) and a highly selective antagonist of PKC (200 nM bisindolylmaleimide I) blocked dephosphorylation of cofilin in neutrophils stimulated with PMA but not with fMLP or ionophore A23187. The calmodulin (CaM) antagonists trifluoperazine (15 microM) and W-7 (50 microM) blocked dephosphorylation of cofilin in stimulated neutrophils whereas inactive/less-active analogs of these inhibitors (15 microM promethazine, 50 microM W-5) were substantially less effective. Calyculin A (40 nM), an antagonist of type 1 and 2A protein phosphatases, also triggered a massive dephosphorylation of cofilin in unstimulated neutrophils through a pathway that was insensitive to inhibitors of type 2B phosphatases. These data suggest that both PKC-dependent and independent pathways can trigger dephosphorylation of cofilin in neutrophils with the latter pathway predominating in fMLP-stimulated cells. These pathways may also contain CaM and a type 2C and/or novel phosphatase (e.g., slingshot).

Abstract
Neutrophil apoptosis is a constitutive process that can be enhanced or delayed by signals induced by various stimuli. We investigated the role of phospholipase D (PLD) in neutrophil apoptosis. The apoptotic rate of neutrophils was found to be increased by 1-butanol and decreased by the exogenous addition of PLD. Moreover, the delay of apoptosis by apoptosis-delaying stimuli such as granulocyte/macrophage colony-stimulating factor or lipopolysaccharide (LPS) was also blocked by 1-butanol. Unstimulated PLD activity in cultured cells for 20 h was higher than that in freshly isolated cells and further increased in cultured cells with LPS. These results suggest that PLD is involved in the up-regulation of neutrophil survival.

Abstract
The use of theophylline in the treatment of obstructive pulmonary diseases has diminished with the advent of new medications. However, its use as a second-line bronchodilator has been reconsidered in recent years. Theophylline is reported to have immunomodulatory actions that may account for its clinical effectiveness in the control of airway inflammation. Theophylline, even at low plasma concentrations, inhibits the late asthmatic reaction following allergen challenge. The apparent suppression of airway inflammation by theophylline reinforces findings from in vitro experiments (including our recent studies). Its immunomodulatory actions include inhibition of cytokine synthesis and release, inhibition of inflammatory cell activation, and acceleration of granulocyte apoptosis. On the basis of these findings, theophylline has been re-evaluated as a key drug for the long-term management of bronchial asthma, and new applications are proposed for the clinical use of xanthine derivatives. Here, we review some recent advances in the understanding of pharmacological actions and new applications of xanthine derivatives.

Abstract
Previous reports from our laboratories showed that type IV collagen from anterior lens capsule (ALC) inhibited stimulated neutrophil function. This property was shown to reside in the region comprising residues 185-203 of the non-collagenous domain (NC1) of the alpha 3(IV) chain. We also reported that ALC-type IV collagen or the synthetic alpha 3(IV) 185-203 peptide, induced a rise in intracellular cAMP which persisted for up to 60 minutes. In the present work we extend our previous studies on signal transduction by alpha 3(IV) 185-203 and we provide new data showing the involvement of cAMP-dependent PKA and protein phosphatases. The data also show that the alpha 3(IV) peptide triggered a rise in intracellular calcium that was dependent on phospholipase C activation. Inhibitors of the Ca(2+)/calmodulin system suppressed both the alpha 3(IV) 185-203 peptide-induced cAMP increase and the inhibitory activity of the peptide on f-Met-Leu-Phe triggered O(2)(-) generation. When alpha 3(IV) 185-203 peptide-induced calcium mobilization was blocked by U-73122, an inhibitor of phospholipase C activation, or by BAPTA/AM, a chelator of intracellular calcium, the inhibitory effect of the peptide on PMA-triggered O(2)(-) production was also abolished. These findings provide evidence that signal transduction by the alpha 3(IV) peptide occurs via pathways which involve calcium. Indeed, the cAMP increase was shown to be mediated by adenosine and adenosine A2 receptors and required calcium elevation, since adenosine deaminase, theophilline, dimethylpropargylxanthine, trifluoperazine or autocamtide-2 related inhibitory peptide, suppressed the activity of the alpha 3(IV) peptide. The inhibitory effect of the peptide on f-Met-Leu-Phe-induced O(2)(-) generation was slightly affected by 1 microM KT5720 or H89, two inhibitors of cAMP-dependent PKA, but was completely suppressed by 10 nM calyculin A or 10 microM okadaic acid, two inhibitors of ser/thr phosphatases. These results suggest that Ser/Thr protein phosphatases and/or cAMP-dependent PKA are involved in signal transduction by the alpha 3(IV) 185-203 peptide and is consistent with the concept that adenosine receptor occupancy modulates neutrophil function.

Abstract
Adenosine (Ado) is an important autocrine modulator of neutrophil functions. In this study, we determined the effects of endogenous Ado on fMet-Leu-Phe (fMLP)–induced phospholipase D (PLD) activity in neutrophils. The removal of extracellular Ado by Ado deaminase (ADA) or the blockade of its action by the A2a receptor antagonists 8-(3-chlorostyryl) caffeine (CSC) or CGS15943 markedly increased fMLP-induced PLD activation. The concentration-dependent stimulatory effects of CSC and CGS15943 were abolished by a pretreatment of neutrophil suspensionswith ADA. In contrast, the selective A2a receptor agonist CGS21680 suppressed fMLP-induced PLD activation. Furthermore, inhibition by CGS21680 of fMLP-induced PLD activity was reversed by CSC or CGS15943. The removal of Ado by ADA or the blockade of its action by CSC or CGS15943, markedly increased the membrane recruitment of cytosolic protein kinase C (PKC), RhoA, and ADP-ribosylation factor (ARF) in response to fMLP. As shown for PLD activity, the stimulatory effect of Ado receptor antagonists on PLD cofactors translocation was abolished by a pretreatment of the cells with ADA. Moreover, the membrane translocation of both PKC, RhoA, and ARF in response to fMLP was attenuated by CGS21680 and this effect of the A2a receptor agonist was antagonized by CSC or CGS15943. These data demonstrate that Ado released by neutrophils in the extracellular milieu inhibits PLD activation by blocking membrane association of ARF, RhoA, and PKC through Ado A2a receptor occupancy.

Abstract
Agents which elevate cellular cAMP are known to inhibit the activation of phospholipase D (PLD) in human neutrophils. The PLD activity of human neutrophils requires protein factors in both membrane and cytosolic fractions. We have studied the regulation of PLD by the catalytic subunit of protein kinase A (cPKA) in a cell-free system. cPKA significantly inhibited GTPgammaS-stimulated PLD activity but had no effect on phorbol ester-activated PLD activity. Pretreatment of plasma membranes with cPKA and ATP inhibited subsequent PLD activation upon reconstitution with untreated cytosol. RhoA, which is known to be a plasma membrane activator of PLD, was dissociated from PKA-treated plasma membrane by addition of cytosol. Plasma membrane-associated RhoA in human neutrophils was phosphorylated by cPKA. The PKA-phosphorylated form of RhoA was more easily extracted from membranes by RhoGDI than the unphosphorylated form. These results suggest that inhibition of neutrophil PLD by PKA may be due to phosphorylation of RhoA on the plasma membrane.

Abstract
Aluminum fluoride (AlF4-) inhibited guanine nucleotide-activated phospholipase D (PLD) in rat submandibular gland cell-free lysates in a concentration-dependent response. This effect was consistent in permeabilized cells with endogenous phospholipid PLD substrates. Inhibition was not caused by either fluoride or aluminum alone and was reversed by aluminum chelation. Inhibition of PLD by aluminum fluoride was not mediated by cAMP, phosphatases 1, 2A or 2B, or phosphatidate phosphohydrolase. AlF4- had a similar inhibitory effect on rArf-stimulated PLD, but did not block the translocation of Arf from cytosol to membranes, indicating a post-GTP-binding-protein site of action. Oleate-sensitive PLD, which is not guanine nucleotide-dependent, was also inhibited by AlF4-, supporting a G protein-independent mechanism of action. A submandibular Golgi-enriched membrane preparation had high PLD activity which was also potently inhibited by AlF4-, leading to speculation that the known fluoride inhibition of Golgi vesicle transport may be PLD-mediated. It is proposed that aluminum fluoride inhibits different forms of PLD by a mechanism that is independent of GTP-binding proteins and that acts via a membrane-associated target which may be the enzyme itself.

Abstract
Extracellular diadenosine polyphosphates (Ap(n)A), through their interactions with appropriate P(2) receptors, influence a diverse range of intracellular activities. In particular, Ap(4)A stimulates alterations in intracellular calcium homeostasis and subsequent activation of glycogen breakdown in isolated liver cells. Here we show that, like ATP, Ap(4)A and other naturally occurring diadenosine polyphosphates attenuate glucagon-stimulated accumulation of cyclic AMP in isolated rat liver cells. The characteristics of Ap(4)A- and ATP-dependent modulation of glucagon-stimulated cyclic AMP accumulation are similar. These results are discussed in the context of the repertoire of intracellular signalling processes modulated by extracellular nucleotides.

Abstract
Treatment of neutrophils with tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) in the presence of cycloheximide induced apoptosis within 3 h, as evaluated by the occurrence of morphological nuclear changes characteristic of apoptosis. Pretreatment of neutrophils with dibutyryl cyclic AMP (dbcAMP) suppressed the TNF-alpha/cycloheximide-induced apoptosis in neutrophils in a concentration-dependent manner, while dbcAMP by itself did not induce any morphological changes. Forskolin, or a phosphodiesterase inhibitor, also produced a concentration-dependent inhibition on apoptosis. This inhibition by dbcAMP was completely reversed by pretreatment with the protein kinase A inhibitor, N-[2-(p-bromocinnamylamino) ethyl]-5-isoquinoline sulphonamide (H-89). DbcAMP also inhibited the TNF-alpha/cycloheximide-induced activation of caspase-3, but it had no effect on the activation of caspase-8 in human neutrophils. Furthermore, dbcAMP did not directly inhibit activated caspase-3 activity. Inhibitor of protein kinase C, phosphatidylcholine-specific phospholipase C, tyrosine kinase, nitric oxide synthase, or granulocyte colony-stimulating factor or granulocyte monocyte colony-stimulating factor did not affect apoptosis. These results indicate that the elevation of levels of endogenous intracellular cyclic AMP and subsequent activation of protein kinase A play a crucial role in the prevention of apoptosis triggered by TNF-alpha/cycloheximide in human neutrophils, and that the possible target of cyclic AMP is a product in the metabolic pathway between caspase-8 and caspase-3.

Abstract
The inhibitory effect of 2-phenyl-4-quinolone (YT-1) on respiratory burst in rat neutrophils was investigated, and the underlying mechanism of action was assessed. YT-1 caused a concentration-dependent inhibition of the rate of O2.- release from rat neutrophils in response to formylmethionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine (fMLP), but not to phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA), with an IC50 value of 60.7+/-8.2 microM. A comparable effect was also demonstrated in the inhibition of O2 consumption. Unlike superoxide dismutase, YT-1 had no effect on O2.- generation in the xanthine-xanthine oxidase system and during dihydroxyfumaric acid autoxidation. The fMLP-induced inositol trisphosphate (IP3) formation was unaffected by YT-1. In addition, YT-1 did not affect the initial spike of [Ca2+]i, but it accelerated the rate of [Ca2+]i decline in cells in response to fMLP. YT-1 was found to have little effect on the activity of neutrophil cytosolic protein kinase C (PKC). YT-1 increased the cellular cyclic AMP level, while having no effect on the cyclic GMP level. In addition, YT-1 increased neutrophil cytosolic protein kinase A (PKA) activity, but had no direct effect on the enzyme activity of pure porcine heart PKA. When neutrophils were treated with (8R,9S,11S)-(-)-9-hydroxy-9-hexoxycarbonyl-8-methyl-2,3,9,10-tetra hydro-8,11-epoxy- 1H,8H,11H-2,7b,11a-triazadibenzo[a,g]cycloocta[cde]trinde n-1-one, (KT 5720), a PKA inhibitor, the inhibition of O2.- generation by YT-1, as well as by prostaglandin E1 (PGE1) and dibutyryl cyclic AMP, was attenuated effectively. YT-1 did not activate the adenylate cyclase associated with neutrophil particulate fraction but inhibited the cytosolic phosphodiesterase (PDE) activity in a concentration-dependent manner. Neutrophils treated with YT-1 had a more pronounced increase in cellular cyclic AMP level by PGE1. Moreover, the ability of PGE1 to inhibit the respiratory burst in neutrophils was greatly enhanced by YT-1. These results suggest that the increase in cellular cyclic AMP levels by YT-1 through the inhibition of PDE (probably PDE4 isoenzyme) activity is involved in its inhibition of fMLP-induced respiratory burst in rat neutrophils.

Abstract
The effects of exogenous and endogenous adenosine on the production of oxygen metabolites in neutrophils triggered by the chemotactic peptide N-formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine (fMLP) or immunoglobulin G (IgG)-opsonized yeast particles, were investigated. By using luminol-enhanced chemiluminescence, we found that adenosine A1 receptor activation did not affect, whereas adenosine A receptor activation, through a mechanism involving the cyclic AMP (cAMP)-protein kinase A signalling pathway, both inhibited the fMLP- and IgG-triggered respiratory burst. The adenosine-induced inhibition was however more pronounced after exposure to fMLP than to IgG-yeast. Stimulation with fMLP caused an extracellular accumulation of endogenous adenosine, which indicates that this event is a negative-feedback mechanism preventing an uncontrolled activation of chemoattractant-stimulated neutrophils. On the contrary, exposure of neutrophils to IgG-yeast did not appear to accumulate extracellular adenosine, probably due to increased adenosine deaminase activity during phagocytosis. In conclusion, this work accentuates the importance of adenosine, both exogenously applied and endogenously formed, as an inflammatory agent modulating the respiratory burst during the different phases in neutrophil activation.

Abstract
The role of the mammalian phospholipase D (PLD) in the control of key cellular responses has been recognised for a long time, but only recently have there been the reagents to properly study this very important enzyme in the signalling pathways, linking cell agonists with intracellular targets. With the recent cloning of PLD isoenzymes, their association with low-molecular-weight G proteins, protein kinase C and tyrosine kinases, the availability of antibodies and an understanding of the role of PLD product, phosphatidic acid (PA), in cell physiology, the field is gaining momentum. In this review, we will explore the molecular properties of mammalian PLD and its gene(s), the complexity of this enzyme regulation and the myriad physiological roles for PLD and PA and related metabolic products, with particular emphasis on a role in the activation of NADPH oxidase, or respiratory burst, leading to the generation of oxygen radicals.

Abstract
Staurosporine, a microbial alkaloid known as a potent though non specific PKC inhibitor, enhances the production of superoxide anion (respiratory burst) of human polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN) stimulated by chemoattractants such as f-Met-Leu-Phe (fMLP). To gain insights into the mechanisms of this priming, we analysed staurosporine effects on formation of second messengers issued from phospholipase D (PLD), i.e., phosphatidic acid (PA) and its dephosphorylated form, diglycerides (DG). PA and DG were measured by two methods, in mass and after the labelling of PMN with a phosphatidylcholine precursor, [3H]-1-O-alkyl-2-lyso-3-phosphatidylcholine. Treatment of labelled PMN with low concentrations of staurosporine (12.5 and 50 nM) which prime respiratory burst had no significant effect on basal amounts of tritiated PA and DG, but potentiated fMLP-mediated formation of [3H]PA and phosphatidylethanol (PEt) pointing to a priming of PLD activity. PA mass in resting PMN increased (approximately 80 +/- 7%) in the presence of high drug concentrations only (250-500 nM), with no change in basal DAG mass. Low staurosporine concentrations (6.25-25 nM) markedly potentiated PA mass formation induced by fMLP and positive correlation (R = 0.95) was found between enhanced superoxide formation and generation of PA but not DG. Furthermore, cytochalasin B, which is known to prime PA production induced by fMLP, synergised the priming of respiratory burst by staurosporine, which further suggests a functional role of PA. In contrast to staurosporine, the more selective PKC inhibitor GF109203X neither stimulated PLD nor primed fMLP-induced PLD or respiratory burst. These data indicate that priming of fMLP-mediated PMN respiratory burst by staurosporine correlates with PA formation. This priming may be linked to alteration of early signalling events upstream of PLD rather than to feedback inhibition of PKC.

Abstract
Our previous studies have shown that a peptide corresponding to the residue sequence 185-203 of the NC1 domain of the alpha3 chain of basement membrane collagen (type IV) inhibits the activation of polymorphonuclear leukocytes. Peptides from the same region of the alpha1, alpha2, alpha4, and alpha5(IV) chains did not exhibit this property. Because of the intimate relationship between metastasizing neoplastic cells and vascular as well as epithelial basement membranes, we measured the cell adhesion-promoting activity of peptides from the NC1 domain of type IV collagen and their effect on proliferation of human melanoma cells. We found that peptide alpha3(IV)185-203 (CNYYSNSYSFWLASLNPER) not only promotes adhesion of human melanoma cells but also inhibits their proliferation. Adhesion increased by 50-60% over control. Melanoma cell proliferation was inhibited by 40% when cells were grown in a medium containing 5 microg/ml peptide for 5 days. Studies showed that replacement of serine in position 189 or 191 by alanine resulted in significantly reduced adhesion. Similarly, serine replacement resulted in reduced ability to inhibit proliferation. Our data suggest that a region of the NC1 domain of the alpha3(IV) chain, contained within the sequence 185-203, not only specifically promotes adhesion but also inhibits proliferation of melanoma cells. These properties appear to be dependent on the presence of the triplet sequence -SNS- (residues 189-191), which is unique to the alpha3 chain and may represent an important functional epitope.

Abstract
The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effect of vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) on the expression and activity of receptors for the Fc portion of IgG (Fc gamma R) in human neutrophils. Cells were assayed under basal conditions and following in vitro stimulation with interferon gamma (IFN gamma). Antibody dependent-cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC) was chosen as a means of evaluating Fc gamma R activity. The results indicated that incubation with VIP (10(-6) M) during 18 h slightly diminished cytotoxicity of non stimulated neutrophils. In contrast, VIP exerted a marked inhibitory effect on neutrophils activated with IFN gamma. Similar results were obtained with forskolin, another agent that increases intracellular cAMP. Finally, using monoclonal antibodies and flow cytometry analysis, we found decreased membrane expression of Fc gamma R after VIP incubation. Taken together, these results show that VIP is able to act on human neutrophils, partially blocking IFN gamma-activation of Fc gamma R mediated functions. Modulation of neutrophil cytotoxic response by VIP may have an important role in limiting tissue injury during inflammation.

Abstract
Neutrophils play a major role host defense against invading microbes. Recent studies have emphasized the importance of the phospholipase D (PLD) in the signalling cascade leading to neutrophil activation. Phospholipase D catalyzes the hydrolysis of phospholipids to generate phosphatidic acid with secondarily generation of diradylglycerol; both of these products have been implicated as second messengers. Herein, we discuss the regulation and the biochemistry of the receptor-regulated PLD in human neutrophils. In vivo and in vitro studies suggest an activation mode in which initial receptor-linked activation of phospholipase C generates diacylglycerol and inositol trisphosphate. The resulting calcium flux along with the diacylglycerol activate a conventional isoform of protein kinase C (PKC), probably PKC beta 1. This PKC, in turn phosphorylates a plasma membrane component resulting in PLD activation and a second outpouring of diradylglycerol. The small GTP-binding proteins, RhoA and ARF, also participate in this process, and synergize with a 50 kDa cytosolic regulatory factor.

Abstract
The respiratory burst oxidase is responsible for superoxide (O2) production by phagocytes and B lymphocytes. This multicomponent enzyme is dormant in resting cells but is activated on exposure of the cells to an appropriate stimulus. Upon activation, several serine residues on the cytosolic oxidase subunit p47phox become phosphorylated. Using two-dimensional tryptic phosphopeptide mapping, we studied the phosphorylation of p47phox in 32Pi-loaded Epstein-Barr virus-transformed B lymphoblasts expressing wild type p47phox or any of several P47phox Ser -> Ala mutants. We were able to identify the labeled peptides from wild type p47phox as those contain- ing Ser303/304 Ser315, Ser320, Ser328 and/or Ser359/370, and Ser345/348 ; no 32P-labeled Ser310-containing peptide was found. When purified p47phox, was phosphorylated in vitro by various protein kinases, varying phosphopeptide patterns were observed. Protein kinase C phosphorylated all the peptides except the one containing Ser345/348; protein kinase A phosphorylated the peptide containing Ser320 and one or both of the peptides containing Ser328 and Ser359/370; while mitogen-activated protein kinase phophorylated only the peptide containing Ser345/348. These findings suggest that these three kinases play distinct roles in the activation of the respiratory burst oxidase, each of them catalyzing the phosphorylation of a different group of serines in p47phox.

Abstract
1. Purified human eosinophils survived for up to 7 days when cultured in vitro in the presence of 1 ng ml-1 granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF) with a viability of 73%. In the absence of GM-CSF, eosinophil viability decreased after one day in culture, and only 4% of cells were viable by day 4. 2. Culture of eosinophils with cholera toxin produced a concentration-dependent decrease in GM-CSF-induced survival at 7 days (IC50 = 7 ng ml-1) which was associated with a 6 fold increase in the intracellular cyclic AMP concentration. This inhibition of cell survival could be prevented by the addition of the protein kinase A inhibitor, H89 (10(-6)M). 3. When eosinophils were cultured with dibutyryl cyclic AMP, there was a concentration-dependent inhibition of GM-CSF-induced survival at 7 days with an IC50 of 200 microM. The related cyclic nucleotide analogue, dibutyryl cyclic GMP did not inhibit GM-CSF-induced eosinophil survival over the same concentration range. 4. Culture of eosinophils with forskolin, or with the phosphodiesterase inhibitors, rolipram and SK&F94120, had no effect on GM-CSF-induced eosinophil survival at any concentration examined. 5. After 7 days' culture in the absence of GM-CSF, fractionation of eosinophil DNA on agarose gels demonstrated a 'ladder' pattern characteristic of apoptosis. GM-CSF prevented DNA fragmentation and this protection could be overcome by both cholera toxin and dibutyryl cyclic AMP. 6. GM-CSF did not affect intracellular cyclic AMP concentrations in unstimulated eosinophils or in cells stimulated by cholera toxin. Thus, GM-CSF does not apparently increase eosinophil survival by affecting cyclic AMP levels. 7. In the absence of GM-CSF both cholera toxin and dibutyryl cyclic AMP decreased the rate of eosinophil death, when compared to cells cultured with medium alone. The t1/2 values for cell death were 1.63 +/- 0.3, 2.46 +/- 0.3 and 4.62 +/- 1.0 days for cells cultured in the presence of medium, cholera toxin and dibutyryl cyclic AMP respectively. 8. In conclusion, cyclic AMP exerts opposing effects on eosinophil survival depending on prior exposure of the cells to GM-CSF.

Abstract
When granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF)-treated human neutrophils were challenged with the chemotactic factor fMet-Leu-Phe, it was possible to detect a time-dependent increase in the hydrolytic (as measured by the production of phosphatidic acid, PA) and the transphosphatidylation (as measured by the production of phosphatidylethanol, PEt) activities of phospholipase D in intact cells prelabeled with a radioactive fatty acid. Both activities were inhibited by preincubation of cells with genistein. Appropriate conditions were developed to test the PLD transphosphatidylation activity against exogenous phosphatidylcholine (PCho) in an in vitro system. As in intact cells, increased PLD activity could be detected in cell lysates obtained from fMet-Leu-Phe-treated cells compared with controls. When lysates were immunoprecipitated with antiphosphotyrosine antibodies, a PLD activity was found only in immune complexes that were prepared from fMet-Leu-Phe-treated cells. Conversely, no activity was found in lysates immunoprecipitated with an irrelevant antibody (GTPase-activating protein, GAP) that nevertheless was able to recognize a tyrosylphosphorylated form of GAP, as demonstrated by western blotting. These data suggest that a PCho-PLD, or a tightly bound protein, is tyrosine phosphorylated during cell activation.

Abstract
Previously employed non-selective protein kinase inhibitors yielded inconclusive results regarding involvement of protein kinase C (PKC) in phosphorylation of 47 kDa protein (p47 phox) in intact neutrophils stimulated with physiologic agonists of superoxide generation. In the present study, phosphorylation of p47 phox in formylMet-Leu-Phe (fMLP) stimulated neutrophils was potently inhibited in the presence of 0.3 microM RO 31-8220, a selective inhibitor of PKC. These results provide experimental evidence in support of the currently considered essential involvement of PKC in p47 phox phosphorylation in response to physiologic stimulation of neutrophil surface receptors. The fMLP-induced phosphorylation of p47 phox was enhanced and prolonged by calyculin A, a specific inhibitor of protein phosphatases of types 1 and 2A, and such enhanced phosphorylation was also effectively inhibited by RO 31-8220. Our results suggest that the extent and duration of p47 phox phosphorylation in intact fMLP-stimulated neutrophils is probably controlled by a balance between the activities of PKC, on the one hand, and of protein phosphatase(s) of type(s) 1 and/or 2A, on the other. Effects of RO 31-8220 and of calyculin A on the fMLP-induced p47 phox phosphorylation were paralleled by similar effects on superoxide release. Calyculin A and RO 31-8220 were also used to study signal transduction by a post-receptor agonist of superoxide generation, a calcium ionophore A23187. The results of the latter study indicated that PKC was activated in A23187-stimulated neutrophils and was essentially involved in superoxide generation and p47 phox phosphorylation. Further, these results suggested that protein phosphatase(s) of type(s) 1 and/or 2A were also activated in A23187-signalling pathway, and limited the extent of superoxide release and p47 phox phosphorylation.

Abstract
A series of studies have demonstrated a stimulus-specific defect in PMN oxidative metabolism after stimulation with surface receptor dependent stimuli such as fMLP, leukotriene B4 and platelet activating factor (PAF), whereas the response to phorbol myristate acetate was normal. Having discovered this defect, studies of the stimulus response coupling for oxidative responses were performed showing a normal interaction of fMLP with it's receptor, as well as an intact activation of phospholipase C, as measured by the generation of 1,4,5-inositoltrisphosphate, and the subsequent rise of intracellular calcium. In contrast, the formation of diacylglycerol and phosphatidylethanol was decreased in PV PMN, denoting an impaired activation of phospholipase D (PLD). It was shown by flow cytometry analyses that the hampered oxidative response was present both in single PMN and monocytes. Moreover, platelets from PV patients, whose PMN exhibit a lower oxidative response to PAF, also have a diminished aggregatory response to PAF. Thus three different cell lineages in PV have been revealed to respond abnormally to surface receptor dependent stimuli, indicating that the proposed impairment of PLD might be relevant for changes in the malignant stem cell clone. Since phosphatidic acid, produced as a result of PLD activation, may be implicated in the regulation of several oncogenes, perturbations of the PLD system could theoretically be important for the development of PV.

Abstract
Intact human neutrophils produced superoxide (O2-) by the stimulation with N-formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine (fMLP) even when the extracellular Ca2+ was absent (0.56 +/- 0.13 nmol/min per 10(6) cells). The production by fMLP was enhanced more than twice in the presence of the extracellular Ca2+. Moreover, the O2- production by fMLP in the presence of extracellular Ca2+ was enhanced nearly three times by the treatment of cells with H-89, an inhibitor of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA). The enhancement was not observed when the extracellular Ca2+ was depleted from the reaction mixture. In addition, H-89 did not enhance fMLP-induced O2- production of electropermeabilized neutrophils in which the intracellular Ca2+ concentration was fixed to about 100 nM. These observations suggest that not only Ca2+ influx but the inhibition of PKA is necessary for the maximum O2- production by fMLP and that the O2- production is partially suppressed by the activation of PKA induced by fMLP.

Abstract
It has been found that cyclic AMP and cyclic AMP-elevating agents inhibit formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine (fMLP)-stimulated superoxide production from polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNs). The quantitative differences of this inhibitory effect on human and rabbit blood versus human salivary and rabbit peritoneal (tissue) PMNs were investigated. PMNs from all sources showed the same pattern of fMLP-stimulated superoxide generation, although it was slightly higher in tissue PMNs. However, treatment with salbutamol differentially blunted fMLP-stimulated superoxide production from blood PMNs compared with tissue PMNs in both human and rabbit. While it could inhibit production from blood PMNs by 30-60%, it had only a negligible effect on generation from tissue PMNs. Similarly, forskolin, phosphodiesterase IV inhibitor Ro-201724, and dibutryl cyclic AMP showed significantly higher inhibitory effects on superoxide generation from blood PMNs than tissue PMNs in both species. beta-Adrenergic receptors, cyclic AMP accumulation, and protein kinase A activity were investigated in blood versus tissue PMNs to clarify the mechanism underlying the above-mentioned differences. At the beta-adrenergic receptor level, no significant changes were detected in the number or the binding affinity of the receptors in tissue versus blood PMNs of human and rabbit. On the other hand, cyclic AMP accumulation was significantly higher in response to salbutamol and Ro-201724 in fMLP-stimulated blood versus tissue PMNs in human and rabbit. At the same time, blood PMNs showed significantly higher cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase A activity than tissue PMNs in human and rabbit. We concluded that tissue PMNs are less responsive to the effect of cyclic AMP-elevating agents in terms of fMLP-stimulated superoxide inhibition. This is due to differences, at least, at two levels. The first is lower accumulation of cyclic AMP and the second is lower protein kinase A activity in tissue versus blood PMNs.

Abstract
Low concentrations of the calmodulin antagonist W-7 (1-10 microM) enhanced the respiratory burst (RB) of human polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN) stimulated by N-formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine, whereas high drug concentrations (above 20 microM) depressed it. The maximal increase obtained with 5-10 microM W-7 affected both initial rate (50%) and total superoxide anion production (150%). W-7 also primed both parameters of the RB mediated by platelet-activating factor, although higher drug concentrations were required (15-50 microM). By contrast, W-7 depressed the RB induced by the calcium ionophore A23187 and by a protein kinase C activator, phorbol myristate acetate, with an IC50 of approximately 20 and 8 microM, respectively. These data show the enhancing effect of W-7 on chemoattractant-mediated RB and suggest that RB priming may involve calmodulin-dependent regulation of chemoattractant-mediated early signalling events.

Abstract
We have investigated the regulation of phospholipase D (PLD) by guanine nucleotides and AlF4- in bovine corneal epithelial cells (BCEC) prelabeled with [3H]myristic acid. In the presence of ethanol, AlF4- increased the production of [3H]PA and [3H]PET indicating activation of PLD in these cells. The effects of AlF4- were time- and dose-dependent. Addition of guanosine 5[gamma-thio]triphosphate (GTP gamma S), to streptolysin O-permeabilized cells also resulted in increased accumulation of [3H]PA and [3H]PEt. Other guanine and adenine nucleotides were ineffective, and guanosine thiodiphosphate inhibited the GTP gamma S-induced activation of PLD. Direct addition of GTP gamma S to microsomal fraction prepared from [3H]myristate-labeled BCEC resulted in increased formation of [3H]PEt in a time- and dose-dependent manner. The activation of PLD by GTP gamma S in the microsomal fraction was absolutely dependent on the presence of Ca2+ > 0.5 microM. Addition of Ca2+ (10-100 microM) alone dose-dependently stimulated the PLD activity. Treatment of the microsomal fraction with phorbol esters had no effect on the ability of GTP gamma S to stimulate PLD. Addition of isoproterenol to BCEC resulted in several-fold stimulation of cAMP, but it had no effect on basal or PDBu-induced stimulation of PLD. Taken together, the data suggest that a GTP-binding protein is involved in regulation of PLD in BCEC, and that maximal stimulation of PLD probably results from an interaction between Ca2+, PKC and G-protein in BCEC.

Abstract
The isoprenaline-induced production of cAMP in human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) was potentiated significantly by incubating PBMC with isoprenaline in the presence of phytohaemagglutinin (PHA), Concanavalin A (Con A) or A23187. This potentiation, that proved to be dependent on the concentration of PHA, Con A or A23187, increased the maximal response but did not cause a change in the potency of isoprenaline. Potentiation could not be induced by the phorbol ester phorbol-myristate acetate, suggesting that protein kinase C-dependent pathways are not likely to be involved in potentiation of adenylyl cyclase. Potentiation could be inhibited by chelating extracellular Ca2+ with EGTA and also by N-(6-aminohexyl)-5-chloro-1-naphthalenesulfonamine, an inhibitor of calmodulin. Potentiation could not be induced by preincubation of PBMC with PHA, suggesting that transient biochemical changes are involved. It was concluded from these results that potentiation in PBMC probably involves the activation of Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent adenylyl cyclase subtypes. Potentiation of the adenylyl cyclase activity could be an important physiological mechanism in vivo preventing cells from becoming "over stimulated".

Abstract
Two new For-Met-Leu-Phe-OH (FMLP) methyl ester analogues, For-Thp-Leu-Ain-OMe [Thp1, Ain3] and For-Met-delta zLeu-Phe-OMe [delta zLeu2], able to activate selectively chemotaxis and superoxide anion (O2-) release, respectively modulate intracellular cyclic AMP (cAMP) levels in different ways. FMLP and [delta zLeu2] enhance human neutrophil cAMP levels per se, and this effect is potentiated by Ro 201724, a non-xanthinic phosphodiesterase (PDE) inhibitor, whereas it is counteracted by 3-isobutyl-1-methyl-xanthine (IBMX), a blocker of both phosphodiesterase and adenosine receptors. In contrast, [Thp1, Ain3] is ineffective. However, no formylated peptides influence cAMP phosphodiesterase activity. Neutrophil preincubation with Ro 201724 or IBMX drastically reduces chemotaxis and superoxide anion (O2-) production triggered by peptides. Our results suggest that: (1) peptide-induced cAMP increase is probably indirect, and due mainly to the action on adenosine-sensitive adenylate cyclase; (2) formylated peptide, endowed solely with chemotactic activity is unable to increase neutrophil cAMP concentration; (3) cAMP elevation may represent a feed-back mechanism to inhibit the physiological responses induced by formylated peptides.

Abstract
Neutrophils, treated with sequential additions of bacterial products such as endotoxin (E. Coli lipopolysaccharide, LPS) and the chemotactic peptide N-formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine (fMLP), undergo to metabolic activation and express membrane-anchoring proteins that promote adhesion to serum-coated culture wells. By investigating the dose-response relationships of these phenomena, we have found that: (a) resting neutrophils do not produce a significant amount of superoxide (O2-) and show only minimal adhesion to serum-coated plastic surfaces; (b) fully activatory doses (> 5 x 10(-8) M) of fMLP induce the release of O2- and a significant increase of the cell adhesion; (c) pretreatment of the cells for 1 h with LPS augments cell adhesion to serum-coated culture wells in the absence of further stimulation and primes the neutrophils to enhanced fMLP-dependent O2- release; (d) addition of low, substimulatory doses of fMLP (from 10(-10) M to 5 x 10(-9) M) inhibits and reverses the adhesion of LPS-treated cells, (e) high fMLP doses ( > 10(-7) M) are additive to LPS in promoting adhesion. Phorbol-myristate acetate (> 10(-9) M) increased adhesion in both normal and LPS-treated neutrophils, but low doses of this stimulant did not inhibit adhesion. Low doses (10(-9) M) of fMLP increased intracellular cyclic AMP in both normal and LPS-treated neutrophils, suggesting that stimulus-induced rises in cAMP may be the negative signal responsible for down-modulation of adhesion.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
The activation of phospholipase D (PLD) by platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF), prostaglandin F2 alpha and 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate (TPA) was studied in NIH-3T3 fibroblasts. PLD activation was determined by measuring the production of both [3H]phosphatidic acid and [3H]phosphatidylpropanol (products of the PLD-catalyzed hydrolysis and transphosphatidylation reactions, respectively), in cells that were metabolically pre-labeled with [3H]oleic acid. All mitogens caused a rapid (within 2 min) activation of PLD. Activation of PLD by prostaglandin F2 alpha and PDGF was transient and declined to near basal levels by 15 min and 55 min, respectively. In contrast, TPA-induced activation of PLD was sustained for at least 60 min of incubation. A combination of maximally effective concentrations of PDGF and TPA stimulated PLD activity in a non-additive manner, while the effect of prostaglandin F2 alpha was additional to that of either PDGF or TPA. The protein kinase inhibitor staurosporine inhibited PLD activation by PDGF or TPA with almost identical dose/response curves. In contrast, staurosporine potentiated prostaglandin-F2 alpha-induced PLD activation. The specific protein kinase C inhibitor GF109203X (a bisindolylmaleimide) inhibited PLD activation by prostaglandin F2 alpha and PDGF at concentrations higher than those required for inhibition of PLD activation induced by TPA. Depletion of cellular protein kinase C abolished PLD activation by all three mitogens without affecting in vitro activity of membrane-bound PLD. The distinct kinetics of PLD activation and its differential susceptibility to protein kinase inhibitors suggest the existence of agonist-specific activation and/or inactivation mechanisms. The results indicate also that protein kinase C participates in the mechanism of PLD activation via PDGF, while the effect of prostaglandin F2 alpha involves a pathway independent of protein kinase C.

Abstract
The role of phospholipid metabolites in the modulation of cyclic AMP degradation during the early response of rat thymic lymphocytes to mitogenic stimulation was investigated by measuring their in vitro effect on the activity of five different cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase forms separated from thymocyte cytosol by means of an HPLC technique. Arachidonic acid was found to markedly inhibit four of the enzyme forms, with IC50 ranging from 14 to 60 microM, while its hydroperoxy and hydroxy derivatives proved inefficient. Dioctanoylglycerol, a biologically active diacylglycerol, was weakly inhibitory while phosphatidic acid, the diacylglycerol phosphorylated derivative, markedly stimulated the two cyclic-AMP-specific type-IV forms identified in thymocyte cytosol, by 50 and 70%. In intact cells labelled with tritiated arachidonate, the mitogenic lectin concanavalin A induced a rapid 4-5-fold increase in radiolabelled phosphatidic acid which peaked at 1 min, and remained elevated for at least 30 min. These observations suggest that phosphatidic acid formed during the mitogenic stimulation of T-cells might be responsible for an early activation of cyclic AMP degradation with, as a consequence, a lowering of cyclic AMP level, which is reported to be necessary for the occurrence of the first steps of mitogenesis.

Abstract
The ability of physiological concentrations of adenosine to inhibit formylmethionylleucylphenylalanine (fMLP)-stimulated superoxide anion (O2-) generation, adherence and degranulation is well established in human neutrophils. However, the mechanism of inhibition remains to be determined. To better understand where adenosine blocks the fMLP signal transduction pathway, we examined the ability of adenosine to inhibit neutrophil adherence stimulated by phorbol myristate acetate (PMA), NaF, and A23187; these agents activate intermediate steps in fMLP signal transduction. Adenosine (0.1-100 microM) did not inhibit adherence mediated by these receptor-independent agonists or NaF- and A23187-mediated O2- production. Additionally, NaF and A23187 completely abrogated adenosine inhibition of fMLP-stimulated neutrophil adherence. We also found that pertussis toxin (5 and 10 microM) completely inhibited fMLP-induced neutrophil adherence and O2- generation, indicating that both processes are G protein mediated. Furthermore, fMLP-stimulated GTPase activity in neutrophil membrane preparations was significantly inhibited by adenosine (1 and 10 microM) or 5'-N-ethylcarboxamidoadenosine (1 microM) (NECA). These data indicate that adenosine inhibits a G-protein-dependent pathway of fMLP stimulation by uncoupling G proteins from the fMLP receptor. This may be a general mechanism of adenosine inhibition of cell-surface receptor-mediated signals as both fMLP- and C5a-stimulated neutrophil adherence were inhibited at similar concentrations.

Abstract
Cellular response to extracellular messages is a basic process to maintain and to support cell life. Several signalling molecules important as sites of therapeutic drug action are involved in the response. Recent studies on life sciences have elucidated molecular properties of intracellular signalling factors and mechanisms of cascading. Novel drugs acting on signalling molecules and possessing new sites and mechanisms of action have been found. This article summarizes the properties (subtypes, structures, functions) of signalling factors (receptors, ion channels, GTP binding proteins, second messenger-generating enzymes, second messenger-metabolizing enzymes, second messengers protein kinases, protein phosphatases) and lists in Tables A-H drugs that act on signalling molecules and which should find clinical use.

Abstract
Protein kinase C (PKC) appears to have a central role in the O2- response of neutrophils following stimulation of membrane receptors. The second messenger, diacylglycerol (DG), that activates PKC is derived from membrane phospholipids via activation of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2)-phospholipase C (PLC) and phospholipase D (PLD), with the latter pathway being more prominent in primed cells. In resting cells receptor coupling to PLD is through a G-protein. Priming brings a cytoplasmic tyrosine kinase into the transducer sequence which, through protein phosphorylation, increases the efficiency of coupling between membrane receptors and PLD. Phosphatidic acid (PA), the initial product of the PLD pathway, also appears to act as a second messenger by directly activating the NADPH oxidase responsible for generating O2-. Interconversion of PA and DG by phosphatidate phosphohydrolase and DG kinase determines which of these second messengers has the dominant role.

Abstract
The mechanism of inhibition of neutrophil phagocytic functions by cAMP-elevating agents has not yet been clarified. In the present work, the effects of adenylate cyclase agonists on protein phosphorylation in the formylmethionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine (fMLP)-stimulated human neutrophils were studied. Before stimulation, 32Pi-labelled cells were incubated with adenosine deaminase to remove the endogenously produced adenosine, an adenylate cyclase agonist itself. A protein of about 52,000 molecular weight was rapidly and transiently phosphorylated when neutrophils were stimulated with fMLP in the presence of isoproterenol, prostaglandin E1, histamine or 2-chloroadenosine. This phosphorylation was blocked by the antagonists of the receptors for the above-listed agents. No phosphorylation of the 52,000 molecular weight protein could be observed if either fMLP or the cAMP-elevating agent were applied alone. A calcium ionophore A23187 and dibutyryl-cAMP could replace fMLP and a cAMP-elevating agent, respectively. Phosphorylation of the 52,000 molecular weight protein was also demonstrated in cell lysates in the presence of cAMP, and in membrane preparations in the presence of the catalytic subunit of cAMP-dependent protein kinase. These data suggest that phosphorylation of the 52,000 molecular weight protein in intact cells is dependent on the cross-talk between the fMLP- and the cAMP-signalling pathways, and may thus be involved in the cAMP-regulatory mechanism.
