Abstract
The composition of donkey milk is similar to that of human milk. However, the lipid content in donkey milk is lower than that in human milk. Thus far, the lipid composition of donkey milk during lactation has not been well-studied. Through mass spectroscopy-based quantitative lipidomics, we analyzed lipids in donkey colostrum (DC) and mature milk (DM). Thirteen subclasses of 335 lipids were identified in both DC and DM; 60 lipids - 17 upregulated and 43 downregulated - were differentially regulated between DM and DC (Variable Importance in Projection >1, P < 0.05), demonstrating that lipid composition changed with lactation. These different lipids were involved in 19 metabolic pathways, of which glycerophospholipid, linoleic acid, alpha-linolenic acid, glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchor, glycerolipid, and arachidonic acid metabolism were the most relevant. Our results provide insights into quantitative alterations in donkey milk lipids during lactation, development of donkey milk products, and screening of potential biomarkers.

Abstract
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is the second most common neurodegenerative disease, the main pathological hallmark of which is the accumulation of α-synuclein (α-syn) and the formation of filamentous aggregates called Lewy bodies in the brainstem, limbic system, and cortical areas. Lipidomics is a newly emerging field which can provide fresh insights and new answers that will enhance our capacity for early diagnosis, tracking disease progression, predicting critical endpoints, and identifying risk in pre-symptomatic persons. In recent years, lipids have been implicated in many aspects of PD pathology. Biophysical and lipidomic studies have demonstrated that α-syn binds preferentially not only to specific lipid families but also to specific molecular species and that these lipid-protein complexes enhance its interaction with synaptic membranes, influence its oligomerization and aggregation, and interfere with the catalytic activity of cytoplasmic lipid enzymes and lysosomal lipases, thereby affecting lipid metabolism. The genetic link between aberrant lipid metabolism and PD is even more direct, with mutations in GBA and SMPD1 enhancing PD risk in humans and loss of GALC function increasing α-syn aggregation and accumulation in experimental murine models. Moreover, a number of lipidomic studies have reported PD-specific lipid alterations in both patient brains and plasma, including alterations in the lipid composition of lipid rafts in the frontal cortex. A further aspect of lipid dysregulation promoting PD pathogenesis is oxidative stress and inflammation, with proinflammatory lipid mediators such as platelet activating factors (PAFs) playing key roles in arbitrating the progressive neurodegeneration seen in PD linked to α-syn intracellular trafficking. Lastly, there are a number of genetic risk factors of PD which are involved in normal lipid metabolism and function. Genes such as PLA2G6 and SCARB2, which are involved in glycerophospholipid and sphingolipid metabolism either directly or indirectly are associated with risk of PD. This review seeks to describe these facets of metabolic lipid dysregulation as they relate to PD pathology and potential pathomechanisms involved in disease progression, while highlighting incongruous findings and gaps in knowledge that necessitate further research.

Abstract
SIGNIFICANCE Reactive oxygen species (ROS) play a critical role in vascular disease. While there are many possible sources of ROS, nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) oxidases play a central role. They are a source of "kindling radicals," which affect other enzymes, such as nitric oxide synthase endothelial nitric oxide synthase or xanthine oxidase. This is important, as risk factors for atherosclerosis (hypertension, diabetes, hypercholesterolemia, and smoking) regulate the expression and activity of NADPH oxidases in the vessel wall. RECENT ADVANCES There are seven isoforms in mammals: Nox1, Nox2, Nox3, Nox4, Nox5, Duox1 and Duox2. Nox1, Nox2, Nox4, and Nox5 are expressed in endothelium, vascular smooth muscle cells, fibroblasts, or perivascular adipocytes. Other homologues have not been found or are expressed at very low levels; their roles have not been established. Nox1/Nox2 promote the development of endothelial dysfunction, hypertension, and inflammation. Nox4 may have a role in protecting the vasculature during stress; however, when its activity is increased, it may be detrimental. Calcium-dependent Nox5 has been implicated in oxidative damage in human atherosclerosis. CRITICAL ISSUES NADPH oxidase-derived ROS play a role in vascular pathology as well as in the maintenance of normal physiological vascular function. We also discuss recently elucidated mechanisms such as the role of NADPH oxidases in vascular protection, vascular inflammation, pulmonary hypertension, tumor angiogenesis, and central nervous system regulation of vascular function and hypertension. FUTURE DIRECTIONS Understanding the role of individual oxidases and interactions between homologues in vascular disease is critical for efficient pharmacological regulation of vascular NADPH oxidases in both the laboratory and clinical practice.

Abstract
Phospholipid-metabolizing enzymes are important participants in neutrophil signal transduction pathways. The methods discussed herein describe assays for assessing the activities of phospholipase A2 (PLA2), phospholipase C (PLC), phospholipase D (PLD), and phosphoinositide 3-OH-kinase in intact neutrophils. PLA2 activity is measured as the release of radiolabeled arachidonic acid. PLC activity is measured as the accumulation of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3), a water-soluble product, using a commercially available radioreceptor assay kit. PLD activity is measured as the appearance of its radiolabeled products, phosphatidic acid and phosphatidylethanol. PI3-K activity is measured as the appearance of its radiolabeled product, phosphatidylinositol-3,4,5-trisphosphate.

Abstract
Human neutrophils exhibit a regulated phospholipase D (PLD) activity that can be measured biochemically in vitro. However, the precise expression pattern of PLD isoforms and their specific biological role(s) are not well understood. Neutrophil mRNA is intrinsically difficult to isolate as a result of the extremely high content of lytic enzymes in the cell's lysosomal granules. Reverse transcription coupled to polymerase chain reaction indicated that pure populations of human neutrophils had the CD16b(+)/CD115(-)/CD20(-)/CD3zeta(-)/interleukin-5 receptor alpha(-) phenotype. These cells expressed the following splice variants of the PLD1 isoform: PLD1a, PLD1b, PLD1a2, and PLD1b2. As for the PLD2 isoform, neutrophils expressed the PLD2a but not the PLD2b mRNA variant. The relative amount of PLD1/PLD2 transcripts exists in an approximate 4:1 ratio. The expression of PLD isoforms varies during granulocytic differentiation, as demonstrated in the promyelocytic leukemia HL-60 cell line. Further, the pattern of mRNA expression is dependent on the differentiation-inducing agent, 1.25% dimethyl sulfoxide causes a dramatic increase in PLD2a and PLD1b transcripts, and 300 nM all-trans-retinoic acid induced PLD1a expression. These results demonstrate for the first time that human neutrophils express five PLD transcripts and that the PLD genes undergo qualitative changes in transcription regulation during granulocytic differentiation.

Abstract
The organochlorine insecticide lindane is a known activator of neutrophil responses. In this work we delineated the biochemical pathways by which lindane stimulates neutrophil oxidant production. Plasma membrane GTPase activity was not stimulated by lindane, ruling out a role for lindane-induced activation of G-proteins or G-protein coupled receptors, whereas inhibition of phospholipase C inhibited lindane-induced oxidant production. Together these data pointed to phospholipase C as the direct target of lindane activation. Type I phosphoinositide 3-kinase was not significantly activated by lindane and an inhibitor of phosphoinositide 3-kinases inhibited oxidant production by only 40%. Thus, Type I phosphoinositide 3-kinase played a minor role, if any, in lindane-induced oxidant production. Lindane stimulated an increase in phosphatidylinositol phosphate suggesting a Type II or III phosphotidylinositol 3-kinase or phosphatidylinositol 4-kinase activity was also stimulated.

Abstract
Utilizing the transphosphatidylation reaction catalyzed by phospholipase D (PLD) in the presence of a primary alcohol and the short-chain phospholipid PC8, we have characterized the enzyme from human neutrophils. A pH optimum of 7.8-8.0 was determined. PIP(2), EDTA/EGTA, and ATP were found to enhance basal PLD activity in vitro. Inhibitory elements were: oleate, Triton X-100, n-octyl-beta-glucopyranoside, divalent cations, GTPgammaS and H(2)O(2). The apparent K(m) for the butanol substrate was 0.1 mM and the V(max) was 6.0 nmol mg(-1) h(-1). Immunochemical analysis by anti-pan PLD antibodies revealed a neutrophil PLD of approximately 90 kDa and other bands recognized minimally by anti-PLD1 or anti-PLD2 antibodies. The 90-kDa protein is tyrosine-phosphorylated upon cell stimulation with GM-CSF and formyl-Met-Leu-Phe. Protein partial purification using column liquid chromatography was performed after cell subfractionation. Based on the enzyme's regulatory and inhibitory factors, and its molecular weight, these data indicate an enzyme isoform that might be different from the mammalian PLD1/2 forms described earlier. The present results lay the foundation for further purification of this granulocyte PLD isoform.

Abstract
Human neutrophils participate in the host innate immune response, partly mediated by the multicomponent superoxide-generating enzyme NADPH oxidase. A correlation between phosphorylation of cytosolic NADPH oxidase components and enzyme activation has been identified but is not well understood. We previously showed that p22(phox), the small subunit of the membrane-bound oxidase component flavocytochrome b(558), is an in vitro substrate for both a phosphatidic acid-activated kinase and conventional protein kinase C isoforms (Regier, D. S., Waite, K. A., Wallin, R., and McPhail, L. C. (1999) J. Biol. Chem. 274, 36601-36608). Here we show that several neutrophil agonists (phorbol myristate acetate, opsonized zymosan, and N-formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine) induce p22(phox) phosphorylation in intact neutrophils. To determine if phospholipase D (PLD) is needed for p22(phox) phosphorylation, cells were pretreated with ethanol, which reduces phosphatidic acid production by PLD in stimulated cells. Phorbol myristate acetate-induced phosphorylation of p22(phox) and NADPH oxidase activity were not reduced by ethanol. In contrast, ethanol reduced both activities when cells were stimulated by N-formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine or opsonized zymosan. Varying the time of stimulation with opsonized zymosan showed that the phosphorylation of p22(phox) coincides with NADPH oxidase activation. GF109203X, an inhibitor of protein kinase C and the phosphatidic acid-activated protein kinase, decreased both p22(phox) phosphorylation and NADPH oxidase activity in parallel in opsonized zymosan-stimulated cells. Stimulus-induced phosphorylation of p22(phox) was on Thr residue(s), in agreement with in vitro results. Overall, these data show that NADPH oxidase activity and p22(phox) phosphorylation are correlated and suggest two mechanisms (PLD-dependent and -independent) by which p22(phox) phosphorylation occurs.

Abstract
Using a phosphorylation-dependent cell-free system to study NADPH oxidase activation (McPhail, L. C., Qualliotine-Mann, D., and Waite, K. A. (1995) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U. S. A. 92, 7931-7935), we previously showed that p47(phox), a cytosolic NADPH oxidase component, is phosphorylated. Now, we show that p22(phox), a subunit of the NADPH oxidase component flavocytochrome b(558), also is phosphorylated. Phosphorylation is selectively activated by phosphatidic acid (PA) versus other lipids and occurs on a threonine residue in p22(phox). We identified two protein kinase families capable of phosphorylating p22(phox): 1) a potentially novel, partially purified PA-activated protein kinase(s) known to phosphorylate p47(phox) and postulated to mediate the phosphorylation-dependent activation of NADPH oxidase by PA and 2) conventional, but not novel or atypical, isoforms of protein kinase C (PKC). In contrast, all classes of PKC isoforms could phosphorylate p47(phox). In a gel retardation assay both the phosphatidic acid-dependent kinase and conventional PKC isoforms phosphorylated all molecules of p22(phox). These findings suggest that phosphorylation of p22(phox) by conventional PKC and/or a novel PA-activated protein kinase regulates the activation/assembly of NADPH oxidase.

Abstract
Local anesthetics impair certain functions of neutrophils, and phospholipase D (PLD) is considered to play an important role in the regulation of these functions. To understand the mechanisms by which local anesthetics suppress the functions of neutrophils, we examined the effects of local anesthetics on PLD in neutrophil-like differentiated human promyelocytic leukemic HL60 cells. Tetracaine, a local anesthetic, inhibited formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine (fMLP)- and 4beta-phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA)-induced PLD activation, but potentiated fMLP-stimulated phospholipase C activity. All four local anesthetics tested suppressed PMA-induced PLD activation to different extents, and the order of their potency was tetracaine > bupivacaine > lidocaine > procaine. In a cell-free system, tetracaine suppressed guanosine 5'-O-(3-thiotriphosphate) (GTPgammaS)-induced PLD activation as well as PMA-induced PLD activation. Western blot analysis revealed that tetracaine prevented the membrane translocation of PLD-activating factors, ADP-ribosylation factor, RhoA, and protein kinase Calpha. Tetracaine also inhibited the activity of recombinant hPLD1a in vitro. These results suggest that local anesthetics suppress PLD activation in differentiated HL60 cells by preventing the membrane translocation of PLD-activating factors, and/or by directly inhibiting the enzyme per se. Therefore, it could be assumed that local anesthetics would suppress the functions of neutrophils by inhibition of PLD activation.

Abstract
Activation of phospholipase D occurs in response to a wide variety of hormones, growth factors, and other extracellular signals. The initial product of phospholipase D, phosphatidic acid (PA), is thought to serve a signaling function, but the intracellular targets for this lipid second messenger are not clearly identified. The production of PA in human neutrophils is closely correlated with the activation of NADPH oxidase, the enzyme responsible for the respiratory burst. We have developed a cell-free system, in which the activation of NADPH oxidase is induced by the addition of PA. Characterization of this system revealed that a multi-functional cytosolic protein kinase was a target for PA, and that two NADPH oxidase components were substrates for the enzyme. Partial purification of the PA-activated protein kinase separated the enzyme from known protein kinase targets of PA. The partially purified enzyme was selectively activated by PA, compared to other phospholipids, and phosphorylated the oxidase component p47-phox on both serine and tyrosine residues. PA-activated protein kinase activity was present in a variety of hematopoietic cells and cell lines and in rat brain, suggesting it has widespread distribution. We conclude that this protein kinase may be a novel target for the second messenger function of PA.

Abstract
This paper is addressed to study how PKC-mediated effects and phosphatidic acid interact together in activation of NADPH-oxidase in formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine (fMet-Leu-Phe) stimulated neutrophils as detected by luminol chemiluminescence. The early luminescence response in fMet-Leu-Phe-stimulated cells (up to 5 min after stimulation) depends mainly on reactive oxygen species generated extracellularly, whereas all later events are caused by oxidation of luminol inside the cells. The two protein phosphatase inhibitors, okadaic acid and calyculin A, dramatically increased the late luminescence of cells. This enhancement was totally inhibited by the phospholipase D modulator butanol, while the protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitor bisindolylmaleimide I was insensitive. The early luminescence response of the cells was slightly inhibited by both protein phosphatase inhibitors and depended on protein kinase C as well as on phospholipase D activities. Propranolol, an inhibitor of phosphatidate phosphohydrolase, enhanced all parts of luminescence response of fMet-Leu-Phe-stimulated neutrophils at concentrations up to 2.5 x 10(-5) mol/L. While the late luminescence response of propranolol-treated cells was not inhibited by the PKC inhibitor bisindolylmaleimide I, the first response depended on protein kinase C. The inhibitor of diacylglycerol kinase R59949 enhanced the luminescence signal only during the first 4 min in fMet-Leu-Phe-stimulated cells. Only diacylglycerols derived from phospholipase C, such as 1-stearoyl-2-arachidonoyl-sn-glycerol, were able to initiate an oxidative burst in cells. Saturated diacylglycerols (e.g. 1,2-dipalmitoyl-sn-glycerol or 1,2-distearoyl-sn-glycerol) did not yield any luminol chemiluminescence, although they were incorporated into the plasma membrane, as evidenced by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight (MALDI-TOF) mass spectrometry. Our results demonstrate that phosphatidic acid produced by phospholipase D is responsible for NADPH-oxidase activity in fMet-Leu-Phe-stimulated neutrophils over the entire measuring time, whereas PKC-mediated processes are only involved during the first 5 min.

Abstract
Phospholipase D (PLD) is widely distributed in mammalian cells and is implicated in a variety of physiological processes that reveal it to be a member of the signal transducing phospholipases. Recently, two related PLD isozymes, PLD1 and PLD2, were cloned. The former activity is regulated in vitro by protein kinase C and small molecular weight GTP-binding proteins (Arf and Rho family). By contrast, the basal activity of the latter is high and it is unresponsive in vitro to these activators. The cellular PLD activity and mRNA levels of these PLD isozymes drastically changed during differentiation and apoptosis in several types of cells. The general trend was that the mRNA level of PLD1 increased during differentiation, as did the observed GTP gamma S-dependent PLD activity which presumably derived from PLD1-specific catalysis. In contrast, the PLD activity and mRNA level of PLD1 were down-regulated during apoptosis. In addition to these PLD isozymes, there exists another PLD isozyme which is activated by unsaturated fatty acids such as oleic acid, although its molecular nature and physiological roles are not well defined. We have observed that this type of PLD activity is drastically increased during apoptosis of Jurkat T cells, which mainly possess this kind of PLD activity. These results suggest the possibility that PLD activity is controlled at the transcriptional level in certain circumstances, and that PLD plays roles in differentiation, survival and apoptosis in mammalian cells.

Abstract
Previously, we showed that angiotensin II stimulation of the NADH/NADPH oxidase is involved in hypertrophy of cultured vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC). Here, we examine the pathways leading to oxidase activation, and demonstrate that arachidonic acid metabolites mediate hypertrophy by activating the p22phox-based NADH/NADPH oxidase. Angiotensin II stimulates phospholipase A2, releasing arachidonic acid, which stimulates oxidase activity in vitro. When arachidonic acid metabolism is blocked with 5,8,11,14-eicosatetraynoic acid (ETYA) or nordihydroguaiaretic acid (NDGA), oxidase activity decreases by 80 +/- 10%. In VSMC transfected with antisense p22phox to attenuate NADH/NADPH oxidase expression, arachidonic acid is unable to stimulate NADH/NADPH-dependent superoxide production. In these cells, or in cells in which NADH/NADPH oxidase activity is inhibited by diphenylene iodonium, angiotensin II-induced [3H]leucine incorporation is also inhibited. Attenuation of oxidase activation by inhibiting arachidonic acid metabolism with ETYA, NDGA, baicalein, or SKF-525A also inhibits angiotensin II-stimulated protein synthesis (74 +/- 2% and 34 +/- 1%, respectively). Thus, endogenous noncyclooxygenase arachidonic acid metabolites mediate angiotensin II-stimulated protein synthesis in cultured VSMC by activating the NADH/NADPH oxidase, providing mechanistic evidence for redox control of VSMC hypertrophy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Angiotensin II infusion has been shown to cause hypertension and endothelial dysfunction and to increase superoxide (O-.2) production in vascular tissue, mainly via an activation of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (phosphate) [NAD(P)H]-dependent oxidase, the most significant O-.2 source in endothelial and/or smooth muscle cells. With these studies, we sought to determine whether endothelial dysfunction in renovascular hypertension is secondary to an activation of these oxidases. METHODS Endothelial function in aortas from rats with two kidney-one clip (2K-1C) hypertension and age-matched controls was assessed using isometric tension studies in organ chambers. Changes in vascular O-.2 production were measured using lucigenin-enhanced chemiluminescence and electron spin resonance spectroscopy. RESULTS In hypertensive animals, relaxation to endothelium-dependent (acetylcholine) and endothelium-independent nitrovasodilators (nitroglycerin) was impaired. Constriction to a direct activator of protein kinase C (PKC) phorbol ester 12,13 dibutyrate (PDBu) was enhanced, and vascular O-.2 was significantly increased compared with controls. Vascular O-.2 was normalized by the PKC inhibitor calphostin C, by the inhibitor of flavin-dependent oxidases, diphenylene iodonium, and recombinant heparin-binding superoxide dismutase, whereas inhibitors of the xanthine oxidase (oxypurinol), nitric oxide synthase (NG-nitro-l-arginine) and mitochondrial NADH dehydrogenase (rotenone) were ineffective. Studies of vascular homogenates demonstrated that the major source of O-.2 was a NAD(P)H-dependent oxidase. Incubation of intact tissue with PDBu markedly increased O-. 2, the increase being significantly stronger in vessels from hypertensive animals as compared with vessels from controls. Endothelial dysfunction was improved by preincubation of vascular tissue with superoxide dismutase and calphostin C. CONCLUSIONS We therefore conclude that renovascular hypertension in 2K-1C rats is associated with increased vascular O-.2 leading to impaired vasodilator responses to endogenous and exogenous nitrovasodilators. Increased vascular O-.2 is likely secondary to a PKC-mediated activation of a membrane-associated NAD(P)H-dependent oxidase.

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
BACKGROUND Priming of neutrophils (PMNs) for protease release is believed to be central to the pathogenesis of PMN-mediated tissue injury observed in ARDS/MOF. Defining the intracellular signaling pathways involved with this excessive protease release may aid in establishing future therapies for ARDS. Phospholipase D (PLD) production of phosphatidic acid (PA) is thought to be pivotal in reactive oxygen species generation but its role in degranulation (i. e., protease release) remains unclear. Our hypothesis was that primed neutrophils require PLD production of PA for maximal activated release of elastase. METHODS Isolated human PMNs were incubated with a well described antagonist of PA production, ethanol (ETOH, 100-1000 mg/dL), and then primed (PAF, 200 nM) followed by activation (fMLP, 1 microM). To mimic fMLP receptor-dependent activation, PMNs were primed and then directly activated with exogenous dioctanoyl l-alpha-phosphatidic acid (PA8, 0.5-200 microM). To confirm the importance of PA in elastase release, PA8 was given to primed-activated PMNs after ethanol pretreatment in an attempt to recover the maximal response. Elastase release was measured by the cleavage of AAPV-pNA. RESULTS PA blockade with ETOH attenuated PAF-primed/fMLP-activated PMN elastase release in a dose-dependent manner. Exogenous PA8 reproduced maximally primed-activated PMN elastase release, and furthermore, PA8 was able to restore maximal elastase release following ethanol attenuation. CONCLUSIONS Elastase release from PAF-primed/ fMLP-activated neutrophils is dependent on PA production. Thus, PA production appears to be involved in both oxidant-dependent and independent mechanisms of neutrophil cytotoxicity and may be a potential therapeutic target in the treatment of hyperinflammatory diseases such as ARDS/MOF.

Abstract
Hemodynamic forces on vasculature profoundly influence atherogenesis. We examined the effect of stretch force on the oxidation of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) by rat aortic smooth muscle cells (RASM) and superoxide production. Stretch force was imposed on RASM cultured on deformable dishes by stretching the dishes. Incubation of native LDL with static RASM for 24 h resulted in LDL oxidation as indicated by increases in thiobarbituric acid-reacting substances from 9.5 +/- 2.3 to 24.5 +/- 2.3 nmol malondialdehyde/mg. Stretch force on RASM augmented cell-mediated LDL oxidation to 149.3 +/- 17.1% concomitantly with increase in superoxide production. LDL oxidation was inhibited by superoxide dismutase or depletion of the metal ion in the culture medium, indicating that it was a metal ion-dependent and superoxide-mediated process. The enhancement of LDL oxidation by stretch force was inhibited by diphenyliodonium, indicating the involvement of the NADH/NADPH oxidase system. Our findings suggest that the increased oxidant stress induced by stretch force is one of the potential mechanisms whereby hypertension facilitates atherosclerosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Acute alcohol intoxication is associated with an increased risk of infection in the injured patient. The impact of clinically relevant levels of ethanol (ETOH) on neutrophil (PMN) bactericidal activity remains ill-defined. PMN priming optimizes microbicidal activity by enhancing oxygen radical production, degranulation, and adhesion molecule up-regulation. We hypothesized that clinically relevant levels of ETOH attenuate these primed PMN responses critical to eradicate infection. METHODS After incubation with ETOH (0-1.0%), isolated human PMNs were primed with beta-acetyl-gamma-O-alkyl and activated with N-formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine. Superoxide generation was measured by cytochrome c reduction, elastase release was measured by cleavage of methoxysuccinyl-ala-ala-pro-val-p-nitroanilide, and CD11b was measured by fluorescent monoclonal antibody staining. Bactericidal activity was assessed by Staphylococcus aureus killing. RESULTS ETOH attenuated superoxide production dose-dependently with significance at 0.3% ETOH. Elastase release was attenuated starting at 0.2% ETOH, and CD11b expression was reduced starting at 0.4% ETOH. S. aureus killing was impaired dose-dependently with significance at 0.3% ETOH. CONCLUSION Clinically relevant concentrations of ETOH attenuate PMN functions critical in host defense against invading pathogens. These results provide direct in vitro evidence consistent with previous in vivo data that acute alcohol intoxication is important in the pathogenesis of trauma-related infections.

Abstract
In HL60 granulocytes, 4beta-phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) induced tyrosine phosphorylation of several proteins with molecular weight of 100-115 kDa and 45 kDa. Furthermore, PMA-mediated phosphatidic acid (PA) production via phospholipase D (PLD) activation. In the presence of either butanol or ethanol, PMA-induced PA production was markedly reduced and instead a metabolically stable phosphatidylbutanol (PBut) or phosphatidylethanol (PEt) was produced by transphosphatidylation by PLD. Under the same incubation condition, these primary alcohols inhibited PMA-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of the 100-115 kDa proteins. Propranolol, which is often used as a selective inhibitor of PA phosphohydrolase (PAP) involving diacylglycerol (DG) formation from PA, did not affect tyrosine phosphorylation of the 100-115 kDa proteins. Moreover, incubation of HL60 granulocytes with Streptomyces chromofuscus PLD caused both PA production and tyrosine phosphorylation of the above proteins. Exogenous PA treatment also induced tyrosine phosphorylation of the same proteins. Thus, the results presented here suggest that PA produced via PLD activation is involved in tyrosine phosphorylation of the 100-115 kDa proteins in HL60 granulocytes.

Abstract
In rat thymic lymphocytes, accumulation of phosphatidic acid (PA) occurs at the same time as decrease in cAMP levels and activation of a cAMP-specific phosphodiesterase (PDE) [type 4, EC 3.1.4.17 (PDE4)]. We investigated the nature of the PDE activated by PA and the mechanism of activation by using recombinant cAMP-specific PDE4 isoforms derived from three different genes (PDE4A, PDE4B, and PDE4D). The "long" variants expressed from each gene (PDE4A5, PDE4B1, and PDE4D3) were activated by PA, whereas the "short" variants (PDE4A1, PDE4B2, PDE4D1, and PDE4D2) were not. Phosphatidylserine was an activator that was as effective as PA, whereas phosphatidylcholine was ineffective, indicating that activation was restricted to anionic phospholipids. PA caused an increase in the Vmax value of PDE4D3 without affecting the Km value of the enzyme for the cAMP substrate. PA also caused a change in the Mg2+ requirement for hydrolysis. Half-maximal stimulation of the PDE was obtained with approximately 10 microg/ml PA. Although protein kinase A-mediated phosphorylation of PDE4D3 produces effects similar to those elicited by PA, the mechanism of PA-induced activation was not found to involve a phosphorylation. Instead, several observations suggest that PA may directly interact with the enzyme. The stimulation of cAMP PDEs by PA and other acidic phospholipids may be a mechanism by which growth factors and hormones modulate the cAMP-dependent signal transduction pathway during cell stimulation.

Abstract
In response to dibutyryl cyclic AMP (dbcAMP) and all-trans retinoic acid, human promyelocytic leukemic HL60 cells differentiate into granulocyte-like cells. In cell lysate and in vitro reconstitution system, phospholipase D (PLD) activity in response to guanosine 5'-O-(3-thiotriphosphate) (GTPgammaS) was up-regulated by dbcAMP or all-trans retinoic acid treatment. In the present study, the mechanism(s) for increased PLD activity during differentiation was examined. Western blot analysis revealed that the contents of ADP-ribosylation factor, Rac2, and Cdc42Hs but not RhoA and Rac1 in the cytosolic fraction were elevated during differentiation. However, the cytosolic fraction from undifferentiated cells was almost equally potent as the cytosolic fraction from differentiated cells in the ability to stimulate membrane PLD activity. It was shown that the GTPgammaS-dependent PLD activity in membranes from differentiated cells was much higher than that in membranes from undifferentiated cells, suggesting that the increased PLD activity during differentiation was due to alterations in some membrane component(s). Clostridium botulinum ADP-ribosyltransferase C3 and C. difficile toxin B, which are known as inhibitors of RhoA and Rho family proteins, respectively, effectively suppressed PLD activity in membranes from differentiated cells. In fact, the amount of membrane-associated RhoA was increased during differentiation. Furthermore, the extent of GTPgammaS-dependent PLD activity partially purified from membranes from differentiated cells was greater than that from membranes from undifferentiated cells in the presence of recombinant ADP-ribosylation factor 1. The PLD (hPLD1) mRNA level was observed to be up-regulated during differentiation, as inferred by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction. Our results suggest the possibility that the increased Rho proteins in membranes and the changed level of PLD itself may be, at least in part, responsible for the increase in GTPgammaS-dependent PLD activity during granulocytic differentiation of HL60 cells.

Abstract
Recent studies suggest that superoxide production by the NADPH/NADH oxidase may be involved in smooth muscle cell growth and the pathogenesis of hypertension. We previously showed that angiotensin II (Ang II) activates a p22phoxbased NADPH/NADH oxidase in cultured rat vascular smooth muscle cells and in animals made hypertensive by infusion of Ang II. To investigate the mechanism responsible for this increased oxidase activity, we examined p22phox mRNA expression in rats made hypertensive by implanting an osmotic minipump that delivered Ang II (0.7 mg/kg per day). Blood pressure began to increase 3 days after the start of Ang II infusion and remained elevated for up to 14 days. Expression of p22phox mRNA in aorta was also increased after 3 days and reached a maximum increase of 338 +/- 41% by 5 days after pump implantation compared with the value after sham operation. This increase in mRNA expression was accompanied by an increase in the content of the corresponding cytochrome (twofold) and NADPH oxidase activity (179 +/- 11% of that in sham-operated rats 5 days after pump implantation). Treatment with the antihypertensive agents losartan (25 mg/kg per day) or hydralazine (15 mg/kg per day) inhibited this upregulation of mRNA levels and activity. Furthermore, infusion of recombinant heparin-binding superoxide dismutase decreased both blood pressure and p22phox mRNA expression. In situ hybridization of aortic tissue showed that p22phox mRNA was expressed in medial smooth muscle as well as in the adventitia. These findings suggest that Ang II-induced hypertension activates the NADPH/NADH oxidase system by upregulating mRNA levels of one or several components of this oxidase system, including the p22phox, and that the NADPH/NADH oxidase system is associated with the pathology of hypertension in vivo.

Abstract
When rat polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMN) were treated with N-formyl-Met-Leu-Phe (fMLP), the release of arachidonic acid in preference to other fatty acids was observed. Levels of arachidonic acid reached a plateau within 5 min, and were accompanied by an approximately 4-fold increase in in vitro phospholipase (PL) A2 and PLD activities in PMN lysates. Treatment of PMN with ethanol (an inhibitor of PLD-mediated phosphatidic acid formation), propranolol (a phosphatidic acid phosphatase inhibitor), or 4-bromophenacylbromide (a PLA2 inhibitor), each suppressed fMLP-stimulated arachidonate release. Treatment with RHC-80267 (a diacylglycerol lipase inhibitor), however, had no such effect. The cytosolic PLA2 (cPLA2) inhibitor, arachidonoyl trifluoromethyl ketone, suppressed PLA2 activity in PMN homogenates and arachidonate release by fMLP-treated PMN. These results suggest that fMLP-elicited arachidonate release is mediated by cPLA2 but not diacylglycerol lipase, and that the activation of cPLA2 is downstream of the PLD-dependent signaling pathway.

Abstract
The specific type of phospholipase A2 (PLA2) involved in formation of leukotriene B4 (LTB4) and platelet activating factor (PAF) in inflammatory cells has been controversial. In a recent report we characterized activation of the 'cytosolic' form of PLA2 (cPLA2) in human neutrophils (PMN) permeabilized with Staphylococcus aureus alpha-toxin under conditions where the secretory form of PLA2 (sPLA2) was inactive. In the current study, generation of both LTB4 and PAF in porated PMN are demonstrated. PMN, prelabeled with [3H]arachidonic acid (3H-AA, to assess AA release and LTB4 production) or with 1-O-[9',10'-3H]hexadecyl-2-lyso-glycero-3-phosphocholine (3H-lyso-PAF, for determination of lyso-PAF and PAF formation), were permeabilized with alpha-toxin in a 'cytoplasmic' buffer supplemented with acetyl CoA. Maximum production of both PAF and LTB4 required addition of 500 nM Ca2+, G-protein activation induced with 10 microM GTP gamma S, and stimulation with the chemotactic peptide, N-formyl-Met-Leu-Phe (FMLP, 1 microM); LTB4 production was confirmed by radioimmunoassay. Removal of acetyl CoA from the system had little effect on LTB4 generation but blocked PAF production with a concomitant increase in lyso-PAF formation LTB4 and PAF production occurred in parallel over time and at differing ATP and Ca2+ concentrations. Further work demonstrated that: (i) maximum production of both inflammatory mediators required a hydrolyzable form of ATP; (ii) blocking phosphorylation with staurosporin inhibited production of both; (iii) the reducing agent, dithiotreitol, had little affect on LTB4 formation but slightly enhanced PAF generation. This study clearly shows that cPLA2 activation can provide precursors for both LTB4 and PAF, that maximum PAF and LTB4 formation occur under conditions that induced optimal cPLA2 activation, that a close coupling between LTB4 and PAF formation exists, and that, after substrate generation, no additional requirements are necessary for LTB4 and PAF generation in the permeabilized PMN system.

Abstract
Low-density lipoprotein (LDL) oxidation by arterial wall cells, a key event during early atherogenesis, was suggested to involve the activation of 15-lipoxygenase and/or nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) oxidase. We sought to analyze the role of these oxygenases in macrophage-mediated oxidation of LDL under oxidative stress. Upon incubation of LDL with the J-774 A.1 macrophage-like cell line or with human monocyte-derived macrophages (HMDM) in the presence of 1 micromol/L CuSO4, the release of superoxide anions to the medium was demonstrated. Under these conditions, the cytosolic protein components of the NADPH oxidase complex, P-47 and P-67, translocated to the plasma membrane, indicating LDL-mediated activation of the NADPH oxidase complex. Under the above-mentioned experimental conditions, the macrophage 15-lipoxygenase was also activated, as determined by the release of 15-hydroxy-5,8,11,13-eicosatetraenoic acid (15-HETE) and 13-hydroxyoctadecadienoic acid (13-HODE) to the medium. Inhibition of the macrophage NADPH oxidase with apocynin or dismutation of superoxide anions, the product of NADPH oxidase activation, with superoxide dismutase (SOD) significantly inhibited macrophage-mediated oxidation of LDL (by 61% to 89%) under these conditions. Phorbol myristate acetate (PMA), which causes NADPH oxidase activation in J-774 A.1 macrophages, had no significant effect on 15-lipoxygenase activity, but still resulted in cell-mediated oxidation of LDL. Finally, HMDM from two patients with chronic granulomatous disease (CGD) that were shown to lack active NADPH oxidase, but to possess almost normal 15-lipoxygenase activity failed to oxidize LDL. We thus conclude that LDL-induced NADPH oxidase activation (under oxidative stress) is required for macrophage-mediated oxidation of LDL, whereas activation of 15-lipoxygenase may not be sufficient for LDL oxidation under these conditions.

Abstract
We provide evidence that phosphatidic acid (PtdOH) formed during signaling in plants is metabolized by a novel pathway. In much of this study, 32Pi-labeled Chlamydomonas cells were used, and signaling was activated by adding the G-protein activator mastoparan. Within seconds of activation, large amounts of [32P]PtdOH were formed, with peak production at about 4 min, when the level was 5-25-fold higher than the control. As the level of [32P]PtdOH subsequently decreased, an unknown phospholipid (PLX) increased in radiolabeling; before activation it was barely detectable. The chromatographic properties of PLX resembled those of lyso-PtdOH and CMP.PtdOH but on close inspection were found to be different. PLX was shown to be diacylglycerol pyrophosphate (DGPP), the product of a newly discovered enzyme, phosphatidate kinase, whose in vitro activity was described recently (Wissing, J. B., and Behrbohm, H. (1993) Plant Physiol. 102, 1243-1249). The identity of DGPP was established by co-chromatrography with a standard and by degradation analysis as follows: [32P]DGPP was deacylated, and the product (glycerolpyrophosphate, GroPP) was hydrolyzed by mild acid treatment or pyrophosphatase to produce GroP and Pi as the only radioactive products. Since DGPP is the pyrophosphate derivative of PtdOH and is formed as the concentration of PtdOH decreases, we assumed that PtdOH was converted in vivo to DGPP. This was confirmed by showing that during a short labeling protocol while the specific radioactivity of DGPP was increasing, the specific radioactivity of the 32Pi derived from DGPP as above was higher than that of [32P]GroP. DGPP was also formed in suspension cultures of tomato and potato cells, and its synthesis was activated by mastoparan. Moreover, it was also found in intact tissues of a number of higher plants, for example, carnation flower petals, vetch roots, leaves of fig-leaved goosefoot, and common persicaria and microspores of rape seed. Our results suggest that DGPP is a common but minor plant lipid that increases in concentration when signaling is activated. Possible functions of DGPP in phospholpase C and D signaling cascades are discussed.

Abstract
Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells stimulated with 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) in the presence of ethanol synthesize phosphatidylethanol (PEt) instead of phosphatidic acid (PA) and diglyceride (DG). We have used ethanol to block the production of phospholipase D (PLD)-derived PA and DG (from PA hydrolysis) to study their role in signal transduction. In MDCK cells, TPA-stimulated prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) synthesis was inhibited by ethanol at concentrations which inhibit PA and DG formation. In addition, TPA elicited a prolonged increase in PGE2 synthesis that is dependent upon continuous activation of PLD. The TPA-stimulated translocation of protein kinase Calpha (PKCalpha) from cytosol to membrane was unaffected by ethanol. This suggests that PLD-derived products act downstream of PKC in TPA-stimulated prostaglandin synthesis. The calcium ionophore, A23187, did not activate PLD, and PGE2 synthesis in response to A23187 was unaffected by ethanol. TPA increased prostaglandin endoperoxide H synthase (PGHS) activity and increased the amount of immunodetectable prostaglandin endoperoxide H synthase 2 (PGHS-2). A23187 did not induce PGHS-2 and A23187-stimulated PGE2 synthesis appears to be due to the constitutively expressed PGHS-1. Blocking the formation of PLD-derived products, PA and DG, inhibited the induction of PGHS-2 by TPA. These results indicate that prolonged PGE2 synthesis in response to TPA is due to the continuous induction of PGHS-2, which is dependent upon PLD activation. In contrast, induction of PGHS-2 by epidermal growth factor was not affected by ethanol. Epidermal growth factor did not induce PKCalpha translocation nor activate PLD. Taken together, these data suggest that PLD-derived PA or DG act as second messengers in the induction of PGHS-2 by PKC-dependent pathways. The demonstration that inhibition of TPA-induced PA formation inhibits Raf-1 translocation in MDCK cells (Ghosh, S., Strum, J. C., Sciorra, V. A., Daniel, L. W. , and Bell, R. M. (1996) J. Biol. Chem. 271, 8472-8480) suggests that PA is the active PLD metabolite in TPA-stimulated signaling.

Abstract
Under physiological conditions, phosphatidic acid (PA) is an anionic phospholipid with moderate biological reactivity. Some of its biological effects can be attributed to lyso-PA and diacylglycerol generated by the action of cellular hydrolases. However, it is clear that the parent compound exhibits biological activities of its own. Early studies implicated PA in the transport of Ca++ across plasma membranes as well as in the mobilization of intracellular stored calcium. Both responses may be induced as a consequence of other cellular processes activated by PA, as opposed to being directly mediated by the lipid. PA may be involved in the activation of certain functions confined to specialized groupings of cells, such as the neutrophil superoxide-generating enzyme or actin polymerization. Recent studies implicate PA as an activator of intracellular protein kinases, and a PA-dependent superfamily of kinases involved in cellular signalling has been hypothesized. Deployed on the outer surface of the plasma membrane, PA potentially provides a method of communication between cells in direct contact. This review will explore the known functions of PA as an intracellular mediator and extracellular messenger of biological activities and address ways in which these functions are potentially regulated by cellular enzymes which hydrolyse the phospholipid.

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
Neutrophils (PMN) contain two types of phospholipase A2 (PLA2), a 14 kDa 'secretory' Type II PLA2 (sPLA2) and an 85 kDa 'cytosolic' PLA2 (cPLA2), that differ in a number of key characteristics: (1) cPLA2 prefers arachidonate (AA) as a substrate but hydrolyzes all phospholipids; sPLA2 is not AA specific but prefers ethanolamine containing phosphoacylglycerols. (2) cPLA2 is active at nM calcium (Ca2+) concentrations; sPLA2 requires microM Ca2+ levels. (3) cPLA2 activity is regulated by phosphorylation; sPLA2 lacks phosphorylation sites. (4) cPLA2 is insensitive to reduction; sPLA2 is inactivated by agents that reduce disulfide bonds. We utilized PMN permeabilized with Staphylococcus aureus alpha-toxin to determine whether one or both forms of PLA2 were activated in porated cells under conditions designed to differentiate between the two enzymes. PMN were labeled with [3H]AA to measure release from phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylinositol; gas chromatography-mass spectrometry was utilized to determine total AA release (mainly from phosphatidylethanolamine) and to assess oleate and linoleate mass. A combination of 500 nM Ca2+, a guanine nucleotide, and stimulation with n-formyl-met-leu-phe (FMLP) were necessary to induce maximal AA release in permeabilized PMN measured by either method; AA was preferentially released. [3H]AA and AA mass release occurred in parallel over time. A hydrolyzable form of ATP was necessary for maximum AA release and staurosporin inhibited PLA2 activation. Dithiothreitol treatment had little affect on [3H]AA release and metabolism but inhibited AA mass release. Assay of cell supernatants after cofactor addition did not detect sPLA2 activity and the cytosolic buffer utilized did not support activity of recombinant sPLA2. These results strongly suggested that cPLA2 was the enzyme activated in the permeabilized cell model and this is the first report which unambiguously demonstrates AA release in response to activation of a specific type of PLA2 in PMN.

Abstract
Increased incidence of myocardial infarction was found in hypertensive patients with high plasma renin activity and increased susceptibility to oxidation was demonstrated in low density lipoprotein (LDL) that was obtained from hypertensive patients. As lipid peroxidation was demonstrated in areas of the atherosclerotic lesion, we sought to analyze the effect of angiotensin II (AN-II) on LDL oxidation, both in vitro and in vivo. Preincubation of J-774 A.1 macrophage-like cell line or mouse peritoneal macrophages (MPM) with AN-II (10(-7) M) for 1 h at 37 degrees C, followed by the addition of LDL for a further 18 h of incubation, resulted in a substantial increase in macrophage-mediated oxidation of LDL (by 55% and 19%, respectively). Similarly, incubation of LDL with MPM harvested from AN-II-injected mice resulted in a substantially increased oxidation of the lipoprotein by up to 90% in comparison to saline-injected mice. Analysis of cellular lipid peroxidation in the MPM themselves, in both the in vitro and the in vivo studies, revealed a 25% or 90% increased macrophage lipid peroxidation, respectively. The mechanism of AN-II-mediated cellular lipid peroxidation involved AN-II binding to its receptor on macrophages as saralasin, an AN-II receptor antagonist, completely inhibited this effect. Inhibitors of phospholipases A2, C and D substantially reduced macrophage lipid peroxidation, suggesting the involvement of phospholipases A2, C and D substantially reduced macrophage lipid peroxidation, suggesting the involvement of phospholipid metabolites in AN-II-mediated macrophage lipid peroxidation, suggesting the involvement of phospholipid metabolites in AN-II-mediated macrophage lipid peroxidation. Extracellular calcium ions, which active phospholipases, were also essential for AN-II-mediated macrophage lipid peroxidation since calcium channel blockers substantially inhibited cellular lipid peroxidation. Finally, the nature of the oxidant and oxygenase involved in AN-II-mediated cellular lipid peroxidation was studied using oxygenase inhibitors. Angiotensin II-mediated macrophage lipid peroxidation was found to involve the action of cellular NADPH oxidase as well as 15-lypoxygenase. We conclude that AN-II stimulates macrophage-mediated mediated oxidation of LDL secondary to cellular lipid peroxidation, and this may have a role in the accelerated atherosclerosis found in hypertensive patients.

Abstract
The signal transduction pathway of leukotriene B4 involves phospholipase D activation in cytochalasin B-primed neutrophils, but leukotriene B4 stimulation of increased phosphatidic acid mass in neutrophils has not been demonstrated. Employing the NIH Image program, we have examined the effect of leukotriene B4 on phosphatidic acid mass in human neutrophils incubated with or without cytochalasin B. Our results show that 0.15 microM leukotriene B4 without cytochalasin B was capable of increasing phosphatidic acid mass in neutrophils by 2-fold after 5 s, 2.5-fold after 1 min, and 2-fold after 5 min incubation. Leukotriene B3, leukotriene B4, and leukotriene B5 were equipotent stimuli for phosphatidic acid mass elevation. Leukotriene B4 induced phosphatidylethanol formation at the expense of phosphatidic acid in cells preincubated with 0.25-1% ethanol, indicating phospholipase D activation. Cytochalasin B enhanced leukotriene B4 stimulation of phosphatidic acid mass elevation and phosphatidylethanol formation. There were no measurable changes in 1,2-diglyceride mass after 5 s, but a 1.7-fold increase occurred after 1 min and declined thereafter. Leukotriene B4 stimulation of [3H]glycerol incorporation into phosphatidic acid, diglyceride and phosphatidylinositol was detectable after a 1-min incubation, suggesting increased de novo synthesis of these lipids. These results suggest that leukotriene B4 stimulation of phospholipase D activity contributes to part of the early increased phosphatidic acid mass and that combined actions of stimulated phospholipases C and D, and de novo phosphatidic acid synthesis contribute to the total increased phosphatidic acid mass.

Abstract
The signaling pathways involved in the long-term metabolic effects of angiotensin II (Ang II) in vascular smooth muscle cells are incompletely understood but include the generation of molecules likely to affect oxidase activity. We examined the ability of Ang II to stimulate superoxide anion formation and investigated the identity of the oxidases responsible for its production. Treatment of vascular smooth muscle cells with Ang II for 4 to 6 hours caused a 2.7 +/- 0.4-fold increase in intracellular superoxide anion formation as detected by lucigenin assay. This superoxide appeared to result from activation of both the NADPH and NADH oxidases. NADPH oxidase activity increased from 3.23 +/- 0.61 to 11.80 +/- 1.72 nmol O2-/min per milligram protein after 4 hours of Ang II, whereas NADH oxidase activity increased from 16.76 +/- 2.13 to 45.00 +/- 4.57 nmol O2-/min per milligram protein. The NADPH oxidase activity was stimulated by exogenous phosphatidic and arachidonic acids and was partially inhibited by the specific inhibitor diphenylene iodinium. NADH oxidase activity was increased by arachidonic and linoleic acids, was insensitive to exogenous phosphatidic acid, and was inhibited by high concentrations of quinacrine. Both of these oxidases appear to reside in the plasma membrane, on the basis of migration of the activity after cellular fractionation and their apparent insensitivity to the mitochondrial poison KCN. These observations suggest that Ang II specifically activates enzyme systems that promote superoxide generation and raise the possibility that these pathways function as second messengers for long-term responses, such as hypertrophy or hyperplasia.

Abstract
PC hydrolysis by PLA2, PLC or PLD is a widespread response elicited by most growth factors, cytokines, neurotransmitters, hormones and other extracellular signals. The mechanisms can involve G-proteins, PKC, Ca2+ and tyrosine kinase activities. Although an agonist-responsive cytosolic PLA2 has been purified, cloned and sequenced, the agonist-responsive form(s) of PC-PLC has not been identified and no form of PC-PLD has been purified or cloned. Regulation of PLA2 by Ca2+ and MAPK is well established and involves membrane translocation and phosphorylation, respectively. PKC regulation of the enzyme in intact cells is probably mediated by MAPK. The question of G-protein control of PLA2 remains controversial since the nature of the G-protein is unknown and it is not established that its interaction with the enzyme is direct or not. Growth factor regulation of PLA2 involves tyrosine kinase activity, but not necessarily PKC. It may be mediated by MAPK. The physiological significance of PLA2 activation is undoubtedly related to the release of AA for eicosanoid production, but the LPC formed may have actions also. There is much evidence that PKC regulates PC-PLC and PC-PLD and this is probably a major mechanism by which agonists that promote PI hydrolysis secondarily activate PC hydrolysis. Since no agonist-responsive forms of either phospholipase have been isolated, it is not clear that PKC exerts its effects directly on the enzymes. Although it is assumed that a phosphorylation mechanism is involved, this may not be the case, and regulation may be by protein-protein interactions. G-protein control of PC-PLD is well-established, although, again, it has not been demonstrated that this is direct, and the nature of the G-protein(s) involved is unknown. In some cell types, there is evidence of the participation of a soluble protein, which may be a low Mr GTP-binding protein. What role this plays in the activation of PC-PLD is obscure. Agonist activation of PC hydrolysis in cells is usually Ca(2+)-dependent, but the step at which Ca2+ is involved is unclear, since PC-PLD and PC-PLC per se are not influenced by physiological concentrations of the ion. Most growth factors promote PC hydrolysis and this is mainly due to activation of PKC as a result of PI breakdown. However, in some cases, PC breakdown occurs in the absence of PI hydrolysis, implying another mechanism that does not involve PI-derived DAG.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

Abstract
Research over the past year has revealed several interesting advances in the biosynthesis of the superoxide anion and nitric oxide. Highlights include the demonstration that the G protein Rac 2 is required for NADPH oxidase activation, the finding that nitric oxide is a feedback inhibitor of nitric oxide synthase isoforms, and the discovery that the continuous catalytic activity of the immune/inflammatory nitric oxide synthase is due to strong calmodulin binding, which is independent of elevated calcium levels. Interferon-gamma primes neutrophils and macrophages for both O2- and nitric oxide synthesis. However, NADPH oxidase and immune/inflammatory nitric oxide synthase are differentially regulated such that their activities are not simultaneously induced.

Abstract
The signal transductional mechanisms regulating the activation of NADPH oxidase, the respiratory burst enzyme in phagocytic cells, are not completely understood. Receptors for most physiologic stimuli trigger the activation of various phospholipases, including phospholipases A2, C, and D. The lipid mediators formed (arachidonic acid, 1,2-diacylglycerol, and phosphatidic acid) have been implicated as second messengers in the induction of the respiratory burst. In intact cells, we have correlated phospholipase D activation and the production of phosphatidic acid with the activation of NADPH oxidase, using the drug propranolol. Phosphatidic acid activated NADPH oxidase in a cell-free system, but the level of activation was low. 1,2-Diacylglycerol markedly enhanced NADPH oxidase activation by phosphatidic acid. The synergistic effect required the diacyl species, since mono- or tri-acylglycerols were ineffective. Phosphatidic acid could be replaced by either lysophosphatidic acid or phosphatidylserine, but not by phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylethanolamine, or phosphatidylinositol, suggesting specificity for an anionic phospholipid. Since other cell-free activators of NADPH oxidase (arachidonic acid, sodium dodecyl sulfate) are also anionic amphiphiles, phosphatidic acid may directly interact with an enzyme component(s). The targets for phosphatidic acid and diacylglycerol in the cell-free system are currently under investigation. These results emphasize the critical importance of phospholipases, particularly phospholipase D, in the regulation of the respiratory burst.
