Abstract
To determine phospholipase D (PLD) activity, an infrared spectroscopy assay was developed, based on the phosphate vibrational mode of phospholipids such as dimyristoylphophatidylcholine (DMPC), lysophosphatidylglycerol (lysoPG), dipalmitoylphosphatidylethanolamine (DPPE), and lysophosphatidylserine (lysoPS). The phosphate bands served to monitor the hydrolysis rates of phospholipids with PLD. The measurements could be performed within less than 20min with 10μl of buffer containing 2 to 40mM DMPC and 10 to 200ng of Streptomyces chromofuscus PLD (corresponding to 350-7000pmol of DMPC hydrolyzed per minute). The limit of sensitivity was approximately 10ng of PLD at 100mM Tris-HCl (pH 8.0) with 10mM Ca(2+) and 2.5mgml(-1) Triton X-100. Reproducible specific activity of PLD (35±5nmol of hydrolyzed DMPCmin(-1)μg(-1) PLD) measured by the infrared assay remained stable over 50 to 200ng of PLD and over 5 to 40mM DMPC. The feasibility of this assay to determine the hydrolysis rate of other phospholipids such as lysoPG, DPPE, and lysoPS was confirmed. The IC(50) of cobalt (800±200μM), a known S. chromofuscus PLD inhibitor, was measured by means of the infrared assay, demonstrating that this assay can be used to screen PLD activity and/or the specificity of its inhibitors.

Abstract
Phospholipase D (PLD), which hydrolyzes phosphatidylcholine to phosphatidic acid (PA) and choline, is present in human platelets. Thrombin and other agonists have been shown to activate PLD but the precise mechanisms of activation and PLDs role in platelet activation remains unclear. We measured thrombin-stimulated PLD activity in platelets as formation of phosphatidylethanol. Since no specific PLD inhibitors exist, we investigated possible roles for PLD in platelets by correlating PLD activity with platelet responses such as thrombin-mediated secretion and F-actin formation (part of platelet shape change). Extracellular Ca2+ potentiated thrombin-stimulated PLD, but did not stimulate PLD in the absence of thrombin. Thrombin-induced PLD activity was enhanced by secreted ADP and binding of fibrinogen to its receptors. In contrast to others, we also found a basal PLD activity. Comparison of time courses and dose responses of platelets with PLD showed many points of correlation between PLD activation and lysosomal secretion and F-actin formation. The finding of different PLD activities suggested that different PLD isoenzymes exist in platelets as reported for other cells. Here we present evidence for the presence of both PLD1 and PLD2 in platelets by use of specific antibodies with immunoblotting and immunohistochemistry. Both isoforms were randomly localized in resting platelets, but became rapidly translocated to the proximity of the plasma membrane upon thrombin stimulation, thus indicating a role for PLD in platelet activation.

Abstract
The molecular composition of phosphatidylcholines (PCs) in total lipid extracts was characterized by a combination of multiple precursor ion scanning on a hybrid quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometer and MS3 fragmentation on an ion trap mass spectrometer. Precursor ion spectra for 50 acyl anion fragments of fatty acids (fatty acid scanning) acquired in parallel increased the specificity and the dynamic range of the detection of PCs and identified the fatty acid moieties in individual PC species. Subsequent analysis of detected PC peaks by MS3 fragmentation on an ion trap mass spectrometer quantified the relative amount of their positional isomers, thus providing the most detailed and comprehensive characterization of the molecular composition of the pool of PCs at the low-picomole level. The method is vastly simplified, compared with conventional approaches, and does not require preliminary separation of lipid classes or of individual molecular species, enzymatic digestion, or chemical derivatization. The approach was validated by the comparative analysis of the molecular composition of PCs from human red blood cells. In the total lipid extract of Madin-Darby canine kidney II cells, we detected 46 PC species with unique fatty acid composition and demonstrated that the presence of positional isomers almost doubled the total number of individual molecular species.

Abstract
A nonradioactive assay for the investigation of phospholipase D (PLD) activity in cardiac membranes has been developed. A fluorescent derivative of phosphatidylcholine [2-decanoyl-1-(O-(11-(4,4-difluoro-5,7-dimethyl-4-bora-3a, 4a-diaza-s-indacene-3proprionyl)amino) undecyl) sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine] was utilized as substrate in an in vitro PLD-catalyzed transphosphatidylation reaction utilizing ethanol as second substrate. Unreacted phosphatidylcholine and the products of phospholipase activity (PEtOH, phosphatidylethanol; PA, phosphatidic acid; DAG, diacylglycerol) were separated by a binary gradient HPLC system and detected by fluorometry. The detection limit of this assay is approximately 0.6 pmol PEtOH. The reaction proceeded at a linear rate for up to 45 min and increased linearly with increasing amounts of rat cardiac membrane protein in a range of 0.625 microg up to at least 25 microg. In the presence of potassium fluoride, formation of fluorescent PA increased at the expense of DAG generation, demonstrating the presence of PA phosphohydrolase activity in rat cardiac membranes. PEtOH formation was unchanged in the presence of the PA phosphohydrolase inhibitor, indicating that the phosphatidylalcohol is not subject to further metabolism by this enzyme. Activation of protein kinase C by phorbol ester significantly increased PLD activity in cardiac membranes. This assay proved to be sensitive for accurate and rapid assessment of PLD activity in cardiac membranes permitting further characterization of the regulation of PLD signal transduction in the heart.

Abstract
Mastoparan 7 (Mas-7), an amphiphilic peptide possessing membrane perturbing activity, has been known to selectively stimulate some lipases. To examine changes in the lipid composition induced by Mas-7, we carried out systemic lipid analysis of L1210 cells after Mas-7 treatment. The total lipid was determined by HPLC, gas-liquid chromatography, and electrospray ionization mass spectrometry in conjunction with differential radiolabelling with [(32)P]orthophosphate, [(3)H]myristic acid, and [(3)H]arachidonic acid. The lipid analysis revealed multiple changes in more than 10 lipid classes. Free fatty acids (FFAs) and phosphatidylethanol (PEt), the phospholipase D product in the presence of ethanol, were increased significantly and phosphatidylcholine (PC) was decreased. Digitonin, a membrane permeabilizing reagent, similarly affected the lipid composition of L1210. The FFA released showed a very broad distribution of saturated, monounsaturated, and polyunsaturated fatty acids, implying that phospholipase A(2) alone could not account for all of the FFAs released. By comparing the molecular species of PEt with those of endogenous PC, we showed that phospholipase D in L1210 cells appeared to act selectively on diacyl-PC. The perturbation-induced alterations in the lipid composition brought about by Mas-7 might play a crucial role in the physiology of the affected cells.

Abstract
Phosphatidylcholine hydrolysis by phospholipase D is a widespread response to cellular stimulation. However, the downstream signaling events subsequent to phosphatidylcholine hydrolysis are just beginning to be determined. Initially it was proposed that diglyceride formation by phospholipase D and phosphatidate phosphohydrolase resulted in long-term stimulation of protein kinase C. However, recent studies indicate that phosphatidic acid is the relevant signaling molecule in some signaling pathways. The present review will summarize studies of phospholipase D in the response of cells to the tumor promoter 12-O-tetradecanoyl-phorbol-13-acetate, which causes cells to mimic the phenotype of oncogenic transformation. The role of phospholipase D in stimulation of Raf-1 and prostaglandin H synthase type-2 is emphasized.

Abstract
Knowledge of the PLD superfamily is rapidly expanding and new insights into the mechanism and regulation of the superfamily are rapidly emerging. The recent structural analysis and use of mutant proteins suggest a mechanism that involves two active sites acting in concert. While a number of residues are required for activity, it appears most likely that a histidine is the residue that becomes covalently linked to phosphatidate in catalysis. Evidence for these proposals is covered in this article.

Abstract
Two mammalian isoforms of phospholipase D, PLD1 and PLD2, have recently been characterized at the molecular level. Effects of physiologic agonists on PLD activity in intact cells, as characterized in earlier studies, have generally not been attributed to specific PLD isoforms. Recent work has established that expression of PLD1 and PLD2 varies within tissues and between cell lines. A single cell type can express one, both, or neither isoform, although most cells co-express PLD1 and PLD2. Lymphocytes often lack expression of one or both isoforms of PLD. Relative levels of PLD mRNA expression vary considerably between established cell lines. Expression of transcripts for both PLD1 and PLD2 can be regulated at the transcriptional level by growth and differentiation factors in cultured cells. Thus, it is apparent that the known mammalian PLD isoforms are subject to regulation at the transcriptional level. The available data do not conclusively establish whether PLD1 and PLD2 are the only isoforms responsible for agonist-mediated PLD activation. Further studies of the regulation of expression of PLD isoforms should provide insight into the roles of PLD1 and PLD2 in physiologic responses, and may suggest whether additional forms of PLD remain to be characterized.

Abstract
Phosphodiesteric cleavage of phosphatidylcholine by members of a growing family of phospholipases D produces choline and phosphatidic acid. These enzymes can also catalyse a transphosphatidylation reaction in which the aliphatic chain of a primary alcohol is transferred to the phosphatidyl moiety of the phosphatidic acid product. PLD enzymes are found in a variety of organisms including bacteria, yeast, plants, and vertebrates. In mammalian systems, biochemical and cell biological approaches have identified phosphatidic acid as a mediator (or progenitor of mediators) that play important roles in the transduction of extracellular signals. Phosphatidic acid or its metabolites may be regulators of key cellular processes such as the control of intracellular protein trafficking, secretion, and alterations in cell morphology and motility. This review discusses methods for the determination of PLD activity both in vitro and in intact cells.

Abstract
Stimulation of cells with certain agonists often activates both phospholipases C and D. These generate diacylglycerol and phosphatidate, respectively, although the two lipids are also apparently interconvertable through the actions of phosphatidate phosphohydrolase and diacylglycerol kinase. Diacylglycerol activates protein kinase C while one role for phosphatidate is the activation of actin stress fiber formation. Therefore, if the two lipids are interconvertable, it is theoretically possible that an uncontrolled signaling loop could arise. To address this issue structural analysis of diacylglycerol, phosphatidate, and phosphatidylbutanol (formed in the presence of butan-1-ol) from both Swiss 3T3 and porcine aortic endothelial cells was performed. This demonstrated that phospholipase C activation generates primarily polyunsaturated species while phospholipase D activation generates saturated/monounsaturated species. In the endothelial cells, where phospholipase D was activated by lysophosphatidic acid independently of phospholipase C, there was no activation of protein kinase C. Thus we propose that only polyunsaturated diacylglycerols and saturated/monounsaturated phosphatidates function as intracellular messengers and that their interconversion products are inactive.

Abstract
PC12 neuronal cells express a membrane phospholipase D (PLD) activity that is detected at similar levels in undifferentiated or differentiated cells. The regulation of this activity by agonists was explored. Membrane phospholipase D activity was increased by treatment of cells with the phorbol ester phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) or with nerve growth factor. The ability of PMA to activate PLD was confirmed in intact PC12 cells. Basal activity of PLD in membranes was reduced in RG20, a PC12 cell line overexpressing the human alpha2A-adrenergic receptor. PMA did not increase PLD activity in RG20 cells, as assessed both in membrane preparations and in intact cells. Cyclic AMP levels did not regulate phospholipase D activity in either cell type. However, incubation of RG20 cells with the alpha2-adrenergic antagonist rauwolscine or with pertussis toxin increased membrane PLD activity and restored activation of PLD by PMA. These data suggest that the effects of the overexpressed alpha2A-adrenergic receptor on PLD activity are mediated by precoupling of the receptor to the heterotrimeric GTP-binding protein, Gi, but are independent of adenylate cyclase regulation. The results of this study suggest that membrane phospholipase D activity can be negatively regulated via Gi in PC12 cells.

Abstract
This review focuses on two phospholipase activities involved in eukaryotic signal transduction. The action of the phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C enzymes produces two well-characterized second messengers, inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate and diacylglycerol. This discussion emphasizes recent advances in elucidation of the mechanisms of regulation and catalysis of the various isoforms of these enzymes. These are especially related to structural information now available for a phospholipase C delta isozyme. Phospholipase D hydrolyzes phospholipids to produce phosphatidic acid and the respective head group. A perspective of selected past studies is related to emerging molecular characterization of purified and cloned phospholipases D. Evidence for various stimulatory agents (two small G protein families, protein kinase C, and phosphoinositides) suggests complex regulatory mechanisms, and some studies suggest a role for this enzyme activity in intracellular membrane traffic.

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
The existence of multiple forms of phopholipase D was clearly established in a large number of biochemical studies that described and characterized the enzymological properties of the different PLD activities. This review summarizes the in vitro evidence showing differential subcellular localization and chromatographic properties of putative PLD isozymes, their phospholipid and alcohol substrate specificities, their modulation by various divalent cations, small G proteins and protein kinase c isozymes, and the role of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate as a cofactor of phospholipase D.

Abstract
Diglycerides are phospholipid-derived second messengers that serve as cofactors for protein kinase C activation. We have previously shown that, in rat glomerular mesangial cells, the cytokine, interleukin-1 alpha, and the vasoactive peptide, endothelin, generate diglycerides from unique phospholipid precursors. However, neither the molecular species of these diglycerides nor their biological actions were determined. It is now hypothesized that interleukin-1- and endothelin-treated mesangial cells form distinct molecular species of diglycerides which may serve different roles as intracellular signaling molecules. Diglyceride molecular species were resolved and quantified by TLC and high performance liquid chromatography as diglyceride-[14C]acetate derivatives. Endothelin stimulates predominantly ester-linked species (diacylglycerols) in contrast to interleukin-1 which stimulates only ether-linked species (alkyl, acyl- and alkenyl,acylglycerols). In support of these data, interleukin-1-treated mesangial cells hydrolyze ethanolamine plasmalogens, vinyl ether-linked phospholipids. It has been reported that ether-linked, in contrast to ester-linked, diglyceride species do not activate protein kinase C activity. Thus, we next assessed membrane protein kinase C activity in endothelin- or interleukin-1-treated mesangial cells. Even though interleukin-1 has no effect upon basal protein kinase C activity, this cytokine, through the formation of ether-linked diglyceride second messengers, inhibits endothelin, platelet-activating factor, or arginine vasopressin-stimulated protein kinase C activity. We further demonstrate that ester-linked diacylglycerols but not alkyl,acyl- or alkenyl,acylglycerols substitute for phorbol esters in a cell-free protein kinase C assay. In addition, alkenyl,acylglycerols inhibit diacylglycerol-stimulated immunoprecipitated protein kinase C alpha activity in vitro and total protein kinase C activity in permeabilized mesangial cells ex vivo. Taken together, these data suggest that interleukin-1-induced formation of ether-linked diglycerides may physiologically serve to down-regulate receptor-mediated protein kinase C activity and that individual molecular species of diglycerides may serve different roles as intracellular signaling molecules.

Abstract
The relationships between cytosolic free calcium (Caf), cell associated glycine, phospholipid hydrolysis and cell death were investigated in Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells injured by depletion of adenosine triphosphate (ATP). Glucose free incubation for three hours with a mitochondrial uncoupler resulted in progressive loss of glycine from cells. However, they were not lethally injured unless a perturbation of Ca++ homeostasis was also induced. Exposure to a Ca++ ionophore and uncoupler in 1.25 mM Ca++ medium (+Ca) resulted in accelerated cell death. ATP depleted cells with ionophore in 100 nM Ca++ medium (-Ca) were also lethally injured, but after a significant delay. Depletion of glycine preceded death in both groups of cells. Exogenous glycine (5 mM) protected +Ca cells against lethal membrane damage, but the beneficial effects were lost over a period of time. In contrast, -Ca cells were completely protected throughout. Phospholipid mass and radioactive label in lipid fractions of cells prelabeled with 3H-oleic acid were measured. Accelerated death of +Ca cells was accompanied by large decreases of phospholipid mass, loss of phospholipid label, and accumulation of unesterified labeled fatty acid. These changes were greatly decreased by incubation in -Ca medium. On the other hand, protection by glycine could not be attributed to modifications of either the massive breakdown of phospholipids that occurred in +Ca cells, or the modest changes seen in -Ca cells. In +Ca cells, the deleterious effects of increased Caf and phospholipid breakdown ultimately prevailed over protection by the amino acid. Thus, separate pathways of cell death associated with increased Caf and decreased glycine were defined in ATP depleted, Ca(+)- permeabilized MDCK cells. Calcium excess and massive phospholipid loss are features of a damage process that occurs independently of whether cells are protected by glycine or not. Conversely, the glycine sensitive component of injury is expressed regardless of whether intracellular Ca++ is increased, or large phospholipid losses occur. ATP depletion in -Ca medium provides a system to study mechanisms of glycine cytoprotection uncomplicated by Ca++ toxicity.

Abstract
Arachidonic acid release from undifferentiated and neutrophilic HL-60 cells was studied. In neutrophilic cells it was stimulated by N-formyl-Met-Leu-Phe and mastoparan by a mechanism involving Gi protein and phospholipase C and was largely dependent on diacyglycerol lipase. Maximum release from both cell types was achieved with fluoride and required cellular energy. Inhibitor studies suggest that arachidonic acid release by fluoride stimulation leads to phospholipase A2 activation with signal transduction involving phospholipase C and protein kinase C. Only neutrophilic cells responded to phorbol ester if Ca(2+)-ionophore was simultaneously present but this effect was abolished by extended treatment with phorbol ester. Thus, protein kinase C plays a major role in highly stimulated neutrophilic cells. These cells are differently equipped with protein kinase C isoenzymes compared with undifferentiated cells. In contrast, both cell types contain similar levels of type II and cytosolic phospholipases A2, the former being by far the more prevalent.

Abstract
The antiestrogen tamoxifen competes with estrogen for receptor occupancy, although reports indicate that not all effects of tamoxifen are mediated via this specific interaction. In the present study we sought to determine whether tamoxifen can initiate transmembrane lipid signals. Lipid signaling is a prominent mode by which hormones, growth factors, and phorbol diesters transduce messages. Using the human mammary carcinoma cell line MDA-MB-231, phospholipid metabolism was analyzed in cells prelabeled with 3H-fatty acid. After short-term (10 min) exposure to tamoxifen (10 microM), cellular phosphatidic acid (PA) increased by approximately 50%. Dose-response kinetics for PA formation were obtained over a tamoxifen range of 2.5-20 microM. Treatment of MDA-MB-231 cells with phorbol diester (12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate, TPA) also elicited PA generation (60% above control). Interestingly, addition of tamoxifen, a purported protein kinase C inhibitor, to TPA-treated cells, caused further increase in PA (approximately 100% above control). PA, a second messenger lipid produced upon effector-receptor coupling, shares a prominent role in signal transduction events that govern cellular proliferation. It is therefore suggested that some actions of tamoxifen are mediated by promoting production of second messenger lipids that elicit transmembrane signal transduction cascades. This view is in line with ideas on non-estrogen receptor associated actions of tamoxifen by way of alternate binding sites.

Abstract
Plasmalogens (1-O-1'-alkenyl-2-acylglycerophospholipids) and to a lesser extent the 1-O-alkyl analogs are ubiquitous and in some cases major constituents of mammalian cellular membranes and of anaerobic bacteria. In archaebacteria polar lipids of the cell envelope are either diphytanylglycerolipids or bipolar macrocyclic tetraether lipids capable of forming covalently linked 'bilayers'. Information on the possible role of ether lipids as membrane constituents has been obtained from studies on the biophysical properties of model membranes consisting of these lipids. In addition, effects of modified ether lipid content on properties of biological membranes have been investigated using microorganisms or mammalian cells which carry genetic defects in ether lipid biosynthesis. Differential utilization of ether glycerophospholipids by specific phospholipases might play a role in the generation of lipid mediators that are involved in signal transduction. A possible function of plasmalogens as antioxidants has been demonstrated with cultured cells and might play a role in serum lipoproteins. Synthetic ether lipid analogs exert cytostatic effects, most likely by interfering with membrane structure and by specific interaction with components of signal transmission pathways, such as phospholipase C and protein kinase C.

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)
