Abstract
Nordihydroguaiaretic acid (NDGA), a dicatechol and phytochemical polyphenolic antioxidant and an established inhibitor of human arachidonic acid (AA) 5-lipoxygenase (LOX) and 15-LOX, is widely used to ascertain the role of LOXs in vascular endothelial cell (EC) function. As the modulatory effect of NDGA on phospholipase D (PLD), an important lipid signaling enzyme in ECs, thus far has not been reported, here we have investigated the modulation of PLD activity and its regulation by NDGA in the bovine pulmonary artery ECs (BPAECs). NDGA induced the activation of PLD (phosphatidic acid formation) in cells in a dose- and time-dependent fashion that was significantly attenuated by iron chelator and antioxidants. NDGA induced the formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in cells in a dose- and time-dependent manner as evidenced from fluorescence microscopy and fluorimetry of ROS and electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy of oxygen radicals. Also, NDGA caused a dose-dependent loss of intracellular glutathione (GSH) in BPAECs. Protein tyrosine kinase (PTyK)-specific inhibitors significantly attenuated NDGA-induced PLD activation in BPAECs. NDGA also induced a dose- and time-dependent phosphorylation of tyrosine in proteins in cells. NDGA caused in situ translocation and relocalization of both PLD1 and PLD2 isoforms, in a time-dependent fashion. Cyclooxygenase (COX) inhibitors were ineffective in attenuating NDGA-induced PLD activation in BPAECs, thus ruling out the activation of COXs by NDGA. NDGA inhibited the AA-LOX activity and leukotriene C4 (LTC4) formation in cells. On the other hand, the 5-LOX-specific inhibitors, 5, 8, 11, 14-eicosatetraynoic acid and kaempferol, were ineffective in activating PLD in BPAECs. Antioxidants and PTyK-specific inhibitors effectively attenuated NDGA cytotoxicity in BPAECs. The PLD-specific inhibitor, 5-fluoro-2-indolyl deschlorohalopemide (FIPI), significantly attenuated and protected against the NDGA-induced PLD activation and cytotoxicity in BPAECs. For the first time, these results demonstrated that NDGA, the classic phytochemical polyphenolic antioxidant and LOX inhibitor, activated PLD causing cytotoxicity in ECs through upstream oxidant signaling and protein tyrosine phosphorylation.

Abstract
The rate of human health care-associated infections caused by Acinetobacter baumannii has increased significantly in recent years for its remarkable resistance to desiccation and most antibiotics. Phospholipases, capable of destroying a phospholipid substrate, are heterologous group of enzymes which are believed to be the bacterial virulence determinants. There is a need for in silico studies to identify potential vaccine candidates. A. baumannii phospholipase D (PLD) role has been proved in increasing organism's resistance to human serum, destruction of host epithelial cell and pathogenesis in murine model. In this in silico study high potentials of A. baumannii PLD in elicitation of humoral and cellular immunities were elucidated. Thermal stability, long half-life, non-similarity to human and gut flora proteome and non-allergenicity were in a list of A. baumannii PLD positive properties. Potential epitopic sequences were also identified that could be used as peptide vaccines against A. baumannii and various other human bacterial pathogens.

Abstract
Thirty years ago, glycerolipids captured the attention of biochemical researchers as novel cellular signaling entities. We now recognize that these biomolecules occupy signaling nodes critical to a number of physiological and pathological processes. Thus, glycerolipid-metabolizing enzymes present attractive targets for new therapies. A number of fields-ranging from neuroscience and cancer to diabetes and obesity-have elucidated the signaling properties of glycerolipids. The biochemical literature teems with newly emerging small molecule inhibitors capable of manipulating glycerolipid metabolism and signaling. This ever-expanding pool of chemical modulators appears daunting to those interested in exploiting glycerolipid-signaling pathways in their model system of choice. This review distills the current body of literature surrounding glycerolipid metabolism into a more approachable format, facilitating the application of small molecule inhibitors to novel systems. This article is part of a Special Issue entitled Tools to study lipid functions.

Abstract
Phosphatidic acid (PA) is a lipid second messenger located at the intersection of several lipid metabolism and cell signaling events including membrane trafficking, survival, and proliferation. Generation of signaling PA has long been primarily attributed to the activation of phospholipase D (PLD). PLD catalyzes the hydrolysis of phosphatidylcholine into PA. A variety of both receptor-tyrosine kinase and G-protein-coupled receptor stimulations have been shown to lead to PLD activation and PA generation. This study focuses on profiling the PA pool upon P2Y6 receptor signaling manipulation to determine the major PA producing enzymes. Here we show that PLD, although highly active, is not responsible for the majority of stable PA being produced upon UDP stimulation of the P2Y6 receptor and that PA levels are tightly regulated. By following PA flux in the cell we show that PLD is involved in an initial increase in PA upon receptor stimulation; however, when PLD is blocked, the cell compensates by increasing PA production from other sources. We further delineate the P2Y6 signaling pathway showing that phospholipase Cβ3 (PLCβ3), PLCδ1, DGKζ and PLD are all downstream of receptor activation. We also show that DGKζ is a novel negative regulator of PLD activity in this system that occurs through an inhibitory mechanism with PKCα. These results further define the downstream events resulting in PA production in the P2Y6 receptor signaling pathway.

Abstract
The impact of polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) supplementation on phospholipase D (PLD) trafficking and activity in mast cells was investigated. The enrichment of mast cells with different PUFA including α-linolenic acid (LNA), eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), linoleic acid (LA) or arachidonic acid (AA) revealed a PUFA-mediated modulation of the mastoparan-stimulated PLD trafficking and activity. All PUFA examined, except AA, prevented the migration of the PLD1 to the plasma membrane. For PLD2 no PUFA effects on trafficking could be observed. Moreover, PUFA supplementation resulted in an increase of mastoparan-stimulated total PLD activity, which correlated with the number of double bonds of the supplemented fatty acids. To investigate, which PLD isoform was affected by PUFA, stimulated mast cells were supplemented with DHA or AA in the presence of specific PLD-isoform inhibitors. It was found that both DHA and AA diminished the inhibition of PLD activity in the presence of a PLD1 inhibitor. By contrast, only AA diminished the inhibition of PLD activity in the presence of a PLD2 inhibitor. Thus, PUFA modulate the trafficking and activity of PLD isoforms in mast cells differently. This may, in part, account for the immunomodulatory effect of unsaturated fatty acids and contributes to our understanding of the modulation of mast cell activity by PUFA.

Abstract
Phospholipids are present in all living organisms. They are a major component of all biological membranes, along with glycolipids and cholesterol. Enzymes aimed at cleaving the various bonds in phospholipids, namely phospholipases, are consequently widespread in nature, playing very diverse roles from aggression in snake venom to signal transduction, lipid mediators production, and digestion in humans. Although all phospholipases target phospholipids as substrates, they vary in the site of action on the phospholipids molecules, physiological function, mode of action, and their regulation. Significant studies on phospholipases characterization, physiological role, and industrial potential have been conducted worldwide. Some of them have been directed for biotechnological advances, such as gene discovery and functional enhancement by protein engineering. Others reported phospholipases as virulence factors and major causes of pathophysiological effects. In this introductory chapter, we provide brief details of different phospholipases.

Abstract
Phospholipase D (PLD) catalyzes the conversion of the membrane phospholipid phosphatidylcholine to choline and phosphatidic acid (PA). PLD's mission in the cell is two-fold: phospholipid turnover with maintenance of the structural integrity of cellular/intracellular membranes and cell signaling through PA and its metabolites. Precisely, through its product of the reaction, PA, PLD has been implicated in a variety of physiological cellular functions, such as intracellular protein trafficking, cytoskeletal dynamics, chemotaxis of leukocytes and cell proliferation. The catalytic (HKD) and regulatory (PH and PX) domains were studied in detail in the PLD1 isoform, but PLD2 was traditionally studied in lesser detail and much less was known about its regulation. Our laboratory has been focusing on the study of PLD2 regulation in mammalian cells. Over the past few years, we have reported, in regards to the catalytic action of PLD, that PA is a chemoattractant agent that binds to and signals inside the cell through the ribosomal S6 kinases (S6K). Regarding the regulatory domains of PLD2, we have reported the discovery of the PLD2 interaction with Grb2 via Y169 in the PX domain, and further association to Sos, which results in an increase of de novo DNA synthesis and an interaction (also with Grb2) via the adjacent residue Y179, leading to the regulation of cell ruffling, chemotaxis and phagocytosis of leukocytes. We also present the complex regulation by tyrosine phosphorylation by epidermal growth factor receptor (EGF-R), Janus Kinase 3 (JAK3) and Src and the role of phosphatases. Recently, there is evidence supporting a new level of regulation of PLD2 at the PH domain, by the discovery of CRIB domains and a Rac2-PLD2 interaction that leads to a dual (positive and negative) effect on its enzymatic activity. Lastly, we review the surprising finding of PLD2 acting as a GEF. A phospholipase such as PLD that exists already in the cell membrane that acts directly on Rac allows a quick response of the cell without intermediary signaling molecules. This provides only the latest level of PLD2 regulation in a field that promises newer and exciting advances in the next few years.

Abstract
Significant studies on phospholipases optimization, characterization, physiological role and industrial potential have been conducted worldwide. Some of them have been directed for biotechnological advances such as gene discovery and functional enhancement by protein engineering. Others reported phospholipases as virulence factor and major cause of pathophysiological effects. A general overview on phospholipase is needed for the identification of new reliable and efficient phospholipase, which would be potentially used in number of industrial and medical applications. Phospholipases catalyse the hydrolysis of one or more ester and phosphodiester bonds of glycerophospholipids. They vary in site of action on phospholipid which can be used industrially for modification/production of new phospholipids. Catalytically active phospholipase mainly use phosphatidylcholine as major substrate, but they can also show specificity with other phospholipids. Several accurate phospholipase assay methods are known, but a rapid and reliable method for high-throughput screening is still a challenge for efficient supply of superior phospholipases and their practical applications. Major application of phospholipase is in industries like oil refinery, health food manufacturing, dairy, cosmetics etc. All types of phospholipases can be involved as virulence factor. They can also be used as diagnostic markers for microbial infection. The importance of phospholipase in virulence is proven and inhibitors of the enzyme can be used as candidate for preventing the associated disease.

Abstract
The mechanisms of lung microvascular complications and pulmonary hypertension known to be associated with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), a debilitating lung disease, are not known. Therefore, we investigated whether bleomycin, the widely used experimental IPF inducer, would be capable of activating phospholipase D (PLD) and generating the bioactive lipid signal-mediator phosphatidic acid (PA) in our established bovine lung microvascular endothelial cell (BLMVEC) model. Our results revealed that bleomycin induced the activation of PLD and generation of PA in a dose-dependent (5, 10, and 100 µg) and time-dependent (2-12 hours) fashion that were significantly attenuated by the PLD-specific inhibitor, 5-fluoro-2-indolyl des-chlorohalopemide (FIPI). PLD activation and PA generation induced by bleomycin (5 µg) were significantly attenuated by the thiol protectant (N-acetyl-L-cysteine), antioxidants, and iron chelators suggesting the role of reactive oxygen species (ROS), lipid peroxidation, and iron therein. Furthermore, our study demonstrated the formation of ROS and loss of glutathione (GSH) in cells following bleomycin treatment, confirming oxidative stress as a key player in the bleomycin-induced PLD activation and PA generation in ECs. More noticeably, PLD activation and PA generation were observed to happen upstream of bleomycin-induced cytotoxicity in BLMVECs, which was protected by FIPI. This was also supported by our current findings that exposure of cells to exogenous PA led to internalization of PA and cytotoxicity in BLMVECs. For the first time, this study revealed novel mechanism of the bleomycin-induced redox-sensitive activation of PLD that led to the generation of PA, which was capable of inducing lung EC cytotoxicity, thus suggesting possible bioactive lipid-signaling mechanism/mechanisms of microvascular disorders encountered in IPF.

Abstract
A number of disorders, such as Alzheimer disease and diabetes mellitus, have in common the alteration of the redox balance, resulting in an increase in reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation that might lead to the development of apoptosis and cell death. It has long been known that ROS can significantly alter Ca²+ mobilization, an intracellular signal that is involved in the regulation of a wide variety of cellular functions. Cells have a limited capability to counteract the effects of oxidative stress, but evidence has been provided supporting the beneficial effects of exogenous ROS scavengers. Here, we review the effects of oxidative stress on intracellular Ca²+ homeostasis and the role of antioxidants in the prevention and treatment of disorders associated to abnormal Ca²+ mobilization induced by ROS.

Abstract
Phospholipase D (PLD, EC 3.1.4.4) is a key enzyme involved in phospholipid catabolism, initiating a lipolytic cascade in membrane deterioration during senescence and stress, which was cloned from Jatropha curcas L., an important plant species as its seed is the raw material for biodiesels. The cDNA was 2,886 bp in length with a complete open reading frame of 2,427 bp which encoded a polypeptide of 808 amino acids including a putative signal peptide of 53 amino acid residues and a mature protein of 755 amino acids with a predicted molecular mass of 86 kD and a pI of 5.44, having two highly conserved HKD' motifs. Phylogenetic analysis indicated the J. curcas PLD alpha (JcPLDalpha) showed a high similarity to other PLD alpha from plants. Semi-quantitative RT-PCR analysis revealed that it was especially abundant in root, stem, leaf, endosperm and flower, weakly in seed. And the JcPLDalpha was increasedly expressed in leaf undergoing environmental stress such as salt (300 mM NaCl), drought (30% PEG), cold (4degreeC) and heat (50degreeC). The JcPLDalpha protein was successfully expressed in Escherichia coli and showed high enzymatic activities. Maximal activity was at pH 8 and 60degreeC.

Abstract
The ARF-GEF ARNO promotes motility by activating ARF6 and a subsequent downstream activation of Rac. ARNO is shown to associate with the Rac GEF Dock180 via its coiled-coil domain. Knockdown of scaffold proteins that bind ARNO disrupts the formation of this complex and disrupts ARF-to-Rac signaling. ARFs are small GTPases that regulate vesicular trafficking, cell shape, and movement. ARFs are subject to extensive regulation by a large number of accessory proteins. The many different accessory proteins are likely specialized to regulate ARF signaling during particular processes. ARNO/cytohesin 2 is an ARF-activating protein that promotes cell migration and cell shape changes. We report here that protein–protein interactions mediated by the coiled-coil domain of ARNO are required for ARNO induced motility. ARNO lacking the coiled-coil domain does not promote migration and does not induce ARF-dependent Rac activation. We find that the coiled-coil domain promotes the assembly of a multiprotein complex containing both ARNO and the Rac-activating protein Dock180. Knockdown of either GRASP/Tamalin or IPCEF, two proteins known to bind to the coiled-coil of ARNO, prevents the association of ARNO and Dock180 and prevents ARNO-induced Rac activation. These data suggest that scaffold proteins can regulate ARF dependent processes by biasing ARF signaling toward particular outputs.

Abstract
We have earlier reported that the redox-active antioxidant, vitamin C (ascorbic acid), activates the lipid signaling enzyme, phospholipase D (PLD), at pharmacological doses (mM) in the bovine lung microvascular endothelial cells (BLMVECs). However, the activation of phospholipase A(2) (PLA(2)), another signaling phospholipase, and the modulation of PLD activation by PLA(2) in the ECs treated with vitamin C at pharmacological doses have not been reported to date. Therefore, this study aimed at the regulation of PLD activation by PLA(2) in the cultured BLMVECs exposed to vitamin C at pharmacological concentrations. The results revealed that vitamin C (3-10 mM) significantly activated PLA(2) starting at 30 min; however, the activation of PLD resulted only at 120 min of treatment of cells under identical conditions. Further studies were conducted utilizing specific pharmacological agents to understand the mechanism(s) of activation of PLA(2) and PLD in BLMVECs treated with vitamin C (5 mM) for 120 min. Antioxidants, calcium chelators, iron chelators, and PLA(2) inhibitors offered attenuation of the vitamin C-induced activation of both PLA(2) and PLD in the cells. Vitamin C was also observed to significantly induce the formation and release of the cyclooxygenase (COX)- and lipoxygenase (LOX)-catalyzed arachidonic acid (AA) metabolites and to activate the AA LOX in BLMVECs. The inhibitors of PLA(2), COX, and LOX were observed to effectively and significantly attenuate the vitamin C-induced PLD activation in BLMVECs. For the first time, the results of the present study revealed that the vitamin C-induced activation of PLD in vascular ECs was regulated by the upstream activation of PLA(2), COX, and LOX through the formation of AA metabolites involving oxidative stress, calcium, and iron.

Abstract
The combined effects of cholesterol, a major cell membrane component, and the lipid second messenger diacylglycerol on the activity of protein kinase C (PK-C) and the structure of phosphatidylcholine/phosphatidylserine bilayers were investigated using specific PK-C assays and (2)H NMR. Whereas the classical activation of PK-C was observed as an effect of diacylglycerol, in the absence of this second messenger, cholesterol did not affect PK-C activity. A novel effect of amplified PK-C activation was observed in the presence of both cholesterol and diacylglycerol concentrations within the physiological range of each of these components. (2)H NMR results suggest that this phenomenon is due to cholesterol- and diacylglycerol-induced increased propensity of the lipids to adopt nonbilayer phases, effectively destabilizing the bilayer structure. The magnitude of the effect was a function of cholesterol concentration, implying that laterally separated cell membrane domains with distinct cholesterol concentrations have the capacity to differ in their sensitivity to extracellular stimuli.

Abstract
Corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis is the aetiological agent of caseous lymphadenitis, a disease affecting sheep and goats. Phospholipase D (Pld), a major virulence determinant of C. pseudotuberculosis, is believed to play a critical role in dissemination of bacteria from the site of infection to the lymph nodes. Although the pld gene has been studied for some time, it is only recently that it has been identified as being down-regulated following heat shock from 37 to 43 degrees C. To gain insights into the mechanisms of Pld action, this study investigated how it was regulated under varying environmental conditions. Studies measuring pld mRNA levels or utilizing a reporter construct containing the pld promoter upstream of a gfp gene were performed. These showed that pld was upregulated in a cell-density-dependent manner, was regulated by heat shock at all cell-culture densities, and was highly expressed in a tissue-culture macrophage-infection model. Finally, the expression of Pld by intracellular C. pseudotuberculosis was shown to play a small but significant role in the reduction of macrophage viability following infection. This study demonstrates that the regulation of C. pseudotuberculosis pld is complex. This regulatory complexity may play an important role in allowing the pathogen to successfully adapt to the changing host environment during infection, migration, establishment and disease progression.

Abstract
1-acyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphate (AGP) acyltransferases (AGPAT) are involved in de novo biosynthesis of glycerolipids, such as phospholipids and triacylglycerol. Alignment of amino acid sequences from AGPAT, sn-glycerol-3-phosphate acyltransferase, and dihydroxyacetonephosphate acyltransferase reveals four regions with strong homology (acyltransferase motifs I-IV). The invariant amino acids within these regions may be part of a catalytically important site in this group of acyl-CoA acyltransferases. However, in human AGPAT1 a transmembrane domain is predicted to separate motif I on the cytosolic side from motifs II-III on the lumenal side, with motif IV near surface of the membrane. The topology of motifs I and III was confirmed by experiments with recombinant AGPAT1 containing potential glycosylation site near the motifs. This topology conflicts with the expectation that catalytically important sites are near one another, raising questions of whether the acyltransferase motifs really are important for AGPAT catalysis, and how substrates access motifs II-III on the lumenal side of the endoplasmic reticulum membrane. Using human AGPAT1 as a model, we have examined the catalytic roles of highly conserved residues in the four acyltransferase motifs by site-directed mutagenesis. Modifications of the sidechain structures of His104, Asp109, Phe146, Arg149, Glu178, Gly179, Thr180, Arg181 and Ile208 all affected AGPAT1 activity, indicating that the acyltransferase motifs indeed are important for AGPAT catalysis. In addition, we examined substrate accessibility to the catalytic domain of human AGPAT1 using a competition assay. Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) with fatty acid chains shorter than 10 carbons did not access the catalytic domain, suggesting that LPA hydrophobicity is important. In contrast, short chain acyl-CoAs did access the catalytic domain but did not serve as the second substrate. These results suggest that motifs II and III are involved in LPA binding and motifs I and IV are involved in acyl-CoA binding.

Abstract
PTEN is an ubiquitously expressed tumor suppressor which plays a prominent role in the pathogenesis of many types of sporadic solid tumors, including breast cancer, as well as hematologic malignancies. Germline PTEN mutations cause 85% of Cowden syndrome (CS), characterized by a high risk of breast and thyroid cancers, and 65% of Bannayan-Riley-Ruvalcaba syndrome (BRRS), characterized by lipomatosis, hemangiomas and speckled penis. Historically, PTEN's role in tumor suppression has been linked to the down-regulation of the PI3K/AKT pathway by PTEN's lipid phosphatase activity. Beyond the AKT pathway, however, there has been minimal examination of PTEN's responsibility in lipid-derived cellular signaling. As phospholipids have been shown to be critical components in signal transduction and cellular proliferation and PTEN controls cellular phospholipid levels, we hypothesized that PTEN functions as a regulator of lipid signaling and homeostasis. Increased PTEN expression in unstimulated MCF-7 breast cancer cells results in a 51% increase in phosphatidic acid, with a decrease in phosphatidylcholine, suggesting that PTEN may regulate phospholipase D (PLD). PTEN overexpression results in a 30% increase in basal PLD activity. As phospholipase C (PLC) is both involved in PLD activation and is regulated by PIP2/3 levels, we investigated the role of PTEN on PLC activation. Our data suggest that PTEN modulates PLC:PLD activation pathways and indicate that the pathogenesis of CS/BRRS has a more complex biochemical basis beyond simply activating the PI3K pathway. This provides alternative routes for PTEN's tumor suppressor action that may be beneficial in the creation of novel targets for cancer therapy and prevention.

Abstract
Somatostatin (SS) is a peptide hormone that inhibits insulin secretion in beta-cells by activating its G(i/o)-coupled receptors. Our previous work indicated that a betagamma-dimer of G(i/o) coupled to SS receptors can activate phospholipase D1 (PLD1) (Cheng, H., Grodnitzky, J. A., Yibchok-anun, S., Ding, J., and Hsu, W. H. (2005) Mol. Pharmacol. 67, 2162-2172). The aim of the present study was to elucidate the mechanisms underlying SS-induced PLD activation. We demonstrated the presence of ADP-ribosylation factor Arf1 and Arf6 in clonal beta-cells, HIT-T15. We also determined that the activation of PLD1 was mediated through Arf6. Overexpression of dominant-negative (dn) Arf6 mutant, Arf6(T27N), and suppression of mRNA levels using siRNA, both abolished SS-induced PLD activation, while overexpression of wild type Arf6 further enhanced this PLD activation. In contrast, overexpression of dn-Arf1 mutant Arf1(T31N) or dn-Arf5 mutant Arf5(T31N) failed to reduce SS-induced PLD activation. These findings suggested that Arf6, but not Arf1 or Arf5, mediates the effect of SS. We further determined the involvement of the Arf6 guanine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF) EFA6A, a GEF previously thought to be found predominantly in the brain, in the activation of PLD1 in HIT-T15 cells. Using Northern and Western blot analyses, both mRNA and protein of EFA6A were found in these cells. Overexpression of dn-EFA6A mutant, EFA6A(E242K), and suppression of mRNA levels using siRNA, both abolished SS-induced PLD activation, whereas overexpression of dn-EFA6B mutant, EFA6B(E651K), failed to reduce SS-induced PLD activation. In addition, overexpression of dn-ARNO mutant, ARNO(E156K), another GEF of Arf6, had no effect on SS-induced activation of PLD. Taken together, these results suggest that SS signals through EFA6A to activate Arf6-PLD cascade.

Abstract
This paper uses phospholipase Cepsilon as a model to demonstrate that lipids can act as ligands to bind to specific motifs and regulate protein activity via allosteric effects. Phospholipids such as phosphatidic acid and free fatty acids such as arachidonate are potent activators of PLCepsilon, increasing the rate of PI hydrolysis by 8-fold and 50-fold, respectively. The mechanism appears to be a reduction of K(m), as the substrate dependence curve is shifted to the left and K(m) is reduced 10-fold. The regulation of PLCepsilon by lipids appears to be physiologic, as reconstitution or cotransfection of either cPLA(2) or PLD with PLCepsilon leads to activation of phosphodiesterase activity. Additionally, TSA-201 cells transfected with PLCepsilon and fed arachidonic acid complexed with BSA had increased (4-5-fold) hydrolysis of polyphosphoinositides. This study demonstrates the ability of lipids to act as potent and direct mediators of protein function and identifies cross talk between different classes of phospholipase (PLD and PLA(2) with PLC) mediated via lipid products.

Abstract
Parathyroid hormone (PTH) and phorbol-12,13-dibutyrate (PDBu) stimulate phospholipase D (PLD) activity and PC hydrolysis in UMR-106 osteoblastic cells {Singh, A.T., Kunnel, J.G., Strieleman, P.J., and Stern, P.H. (1999) Parathyroid Hormone (PTH)-(1-34), [Nle8,18,Tyr34]PTH-(3-34) Amide, PTH-(1-31) Amide, and PTH-Related Peptide-(1-34) Stimulate Phosphatidylcholine Hydrolysis in UMR-106 Osteoblastic Cells: Comparison with Effects of Phorbol 12,13-Dibutyrate, Endocrinology 140, 131-137}. The current studies were designed to determine whether ethanolamine-containing phospholipids, and specifically PE, could also be substrates. In cells labeled with 14C-ethanolamine, PTH and PDBu treatment decreased 14C-PE. In cells co-labeled with 3H-choline and 14C-ethanolamine, PTH and PDBu treatment increased both 3H-choline and 14C-ethanolamine release from the cells. Choline and ethanolamine phospholipid hydrolysis was increased within 5 min, and responses were sustained for at least 60 min. Maximal effects were obtained with 10 nM PTH and 50 nM PDBu. Dominant negative PLD1 and PLD2 constructs inhibited the effects of PTH on the phospholipid hydrolysis. The results suggest that both PC and PE are substrates for phospholipase D in UMR-106 osteoblastic cells and could therefore be sources of phospholipid hydrolysis products for downstream signaling in osteoblasts.

Abstract
The bioactive phospholipids, LPA (lysophosphatidic acid) and PA (phosphatidic acid), regulate pivotal processes related to the pathogenesis of cancer. Recently, we cloned a novel type of lipid kinase that phosphorylates monoacylglycerols (such as 2-arachidonoylglycerol, an endogenous cannabinoid receptor ligand) and diacylglycerols, to form LPA and PA, respectively. This AGK (acylglycerol kinase) is highly expressed in prostate cancer cell lines and the results reviewed here suggest that AGK might be a critical player in the initiation and progression of prostate cancer. Intriguingly, down-regulation of endogenous AGK inhibited EGF (epidermal growth factor), but not LPA-induced ERK1/2 (extracellular-signal-regulated kinase 1/2) activation and progression through the S-phase of the cell cycle. In this review, we will summarize the evidence demonstrating that AGK amplifies EGF growth signalling pathways that play an important role in the pathophysiology of prostate cancer. Because LPA has long been implicated as an autocrine and paracrine growth stimulatory factor for prostate cancer cells, the identification of this novel lipid kinase that regulates its production could provide new and useful targets for preventive or therapeutic measures.

Abstract
Sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) is a bioactive sphingolipid metabolite that is known to mediate diverse cellular responses including cell growth, survival, and migration. Most of these effects have been attributed to its binding to a specific subfamily of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCR), namely S1P(1-5). Recent studies have suggested that S1P also plays a prominent role in the contraction of various types of smooth muscle. This review provides a brief overview of its role in this process and also highlights how S1P-dependent signaling serves as an important regulator of smooth muscle contraction.

Abstract
Myristoylated alanine-rich C kinase substrate (MARCKS) and MARCKS-related protein (MRP) are essential proteins that are implicated in coordination of membrane-cytoskeletal signalling events, such as cell adhesion, migration, secretion, and phagocytosis in a variety of cell types. The most prominent structural feature of MARCKS and MRP is a central basic effector domain (ED) that binds F-actin, Ca2+-calmodulin, and acidic phospholipids; phosphorylation of key serine residues within the ED by protein kinase C (PKC) prevents the above interactions. While the precise roles of MARCKS and MRP have not been established, recent attention has focussed on the high affinity of the MARCKS ED for phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2), and a model has emerged in which calmodulin- or PKC-mediated regulation of these proteins at specific membrane sites could in turn control spatial availability of PIP2. The present review summarizes recent progress in this area and discusses how the above model might explain a role for MARCKS and MRP in activation of phospholipase D and other PIP2-dependent cellular processes.

Abstract
Phospholipase D catalyses the hydrolysis of the phosphodiester bond of glycerophospholipids to generate phosphatidic acid and a free headgroup. Phospholipase D activities have been detected in simple to complex organisms from viruses and bacteria to yeast, plants, and mammals. Although enzymes with broader selectivity are found in some of the lower organisms, the plant, yeast, and mammalian enzymes are selective for phosphatidylcholine. The two mammalian phospholipase D isoforms are regulated by protein kinases and GTP binding proteins of the ADP-ribosylation and Rho families. Mammalian and yeast phospholipases D are also potently stimulated by phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate. This review discusses the identification, characterization, structure, and regulation of phospholipase D. Genetic and pharmacological approaches implicate phospholipase D in a diverse range of cellular processes that include receptor signaling, control of intracellular membrane transport, and reorganization of the actin cytoskeleton. Most ideas about phospholipase D function consider that the phosphatidic acid product is an intracellular lipid messenger. Candidate targets for phospholipase-D-generated phosphatidic acid include phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate 5-kinases and the raf protein kinase. Phosphatidic acid can also be converted to two other lipid mediators, diacylglycerol and lyso phosphatidic acid. Coordinated activation of these phospholipase-D-dependent pathways likely accounts for the pleitropic roles for these enzymes in many aspects of cell regulation.

Abstract
Human cells in culture have a limited proliferative capacity. After a period of vigorous proliferation, the rate of cell division declines and a number of changes occur in the cells including increases in size, in secondary lysosomes and residual bodies, nuclear changes and a number of changes in gene expression which provide biomarkers for senescence. Although human cells in culture have been used for over 40 years as models for understanding the cellular basis of aging, the relationship of replicative senescence to aging of the organism is still not clear. In this review, we discuss replicative senescence in the light of current information on signal transduction and mitogenesis, cell stress, apoptosis, telomere changes and finally we discuss replicative senescence as a model of aging in vivo.

Abstract
Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) (10-100 microM) induced rapid and transient accumulation of phosphatidic acid (PA) in suspension-cultured rice cells. When phospholipase activity in the cellular extract fraction prepared from rice cells treated with H2O2 was assayed in the presence of 1-butanol (0.1%), rapid and transient phosphatidylbutanol (PtdBut) formation was observed. Thus, the H2O2-activated phospholipase was concluded to be phospholipase D (PLD). Furthermore, H2O2 directly induced in vitro PLD activation in the cytosolic fraction without H2O2 treatment. In vitro and in vivo activation of PLD were completely suppressed in the presence of lavendustin A (0.05 mM), a potent inhibitor of protein tyrosine kinase. Phytoalexin biosynthesis induced by N-acetylchitooligosaccharide elicitor was enhanced in the presence of H2O2 (10-100 microM), whereas it was suppressed in the presence of tiron, a potent scavenger of O2-, 1-butanol (0.1%) and lavendustin A (0.05 mM). These results indicate that H2O2-inducible PLD activation enhances signal transduction leading to phytoalexin biosynthesis in rice cells.

Abstract
Aging is a process that affects different organs, of which the brain is particularly susceptible. PA and DAG are central intermediates in the phosphoglyceride as well as in the neutral lipid biosynthetic pathway, and they have also been implicated in signal transduction. Phospholipase D (PLD) and phosphatidate phosphohydrolase (PAP) are the enzymes that generate PA and DAG. The latter can be transformed into MAG by diacylglycerol lipase (DGL). In the present study, we examine how aging modulates the PLD, PAP, and DGL isoforms in cerebellar subcellular fractions from 4- (adult), 28-, and 33-mon-old (aged) rats. PI-4,5-bisphosphonate (PIP2)-dependent PLD, PAP1, and DGL1 were distributed in different percentages in all cerebellum subcellular fractions. On the other hand, PAP2 and DGL2 activities were observed in all subcellular fractions except in the cytosolic fraction. Aging modified the enzyme distribution pattern. In addition, aging decreased nuclear (45%), mitochondrial-synaptosomal (55%), and cytosolic (71%) PAP1 activity and increased (28%) microsomal PAP1 activity. DGL1 activity was decreased in nuclear (85%) and mitochondrial-synaptosomal (63%) fractions by aging. On the other hand, PIP2-dependent PLD activities were increased in the mitochondrial-synaptosomal fraction. PAP2 and DGL2 were increased in the microsomal fraction by 87 and 114%, respectively, and they were decreased in the nuclear fraction. The changes observed in cerebellum PAP1 and DGL1 activities from aged rats with respect to adult rats could be related to modifications in lipid metabolism. Differential PA metabolization during aging through PIP2-dependent PLD/PAP2/DGL2 activities could be related to alterations in the neural signal transduction mechanisms.

Abstract
The secretion of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP-9) is stimulated by the glucocorticoid-induced tumor necrosis factor receptor (GITR), a new tumor necrosis factor receptor (TNFR) family, in murine macrophages via an activation of protein kinase C (PKC)delta and phospholipase D (PLD). Secretions of MMP-9 are stimulated by the phosphatidic acid (PA), a product of PLD activity and an inhibition of PA production by a 1-propanol inhibited secretion of MMP-9 by soluble GITR (sGITR). MMP-9 is not secreted by diacylglycerol (DAG) and an inhibitor of PA phosphatase has no effect on the secretion induced by sGITR, indicating that PA is responsible for MMP-9 secretion in murine macrophages. Our data indicates that sGITR-induced activation of PKCdelta and PLD increases MMP-9 secretions in macrophages.

Abstract
A cDNA clone encoding a rac-like small GTP binding protein was isolated from a cDNA library of Chinese cabbage (Brassica campestris L. ssp. pekinensis) flower buds and named Brac1. The Brac1 cDNA contains an open reading frame encoding 198 amino acid residues with an estimated molecular mass of 21,690 Da and this coding region has conserved residues and motifs unique to the Rho subfamily of proteins. The deduced amino acid sequence of the Brac1 protein is closely related to that of Arabidopsis thaliana Arac3 (91%), but it shares relatively little homology with other members of the Ras superfamily (about 30% identity). To further characterize Brac1, a pGBrac1 expression vector consisting of PCR-amplified Brac1 cDNA plus glutathione S-transferase (GST) and pBKS(+)II was used to purify the protein. Using a PEI-cellulose/TLC plate, GTPase activity of this protein was confirmed and competition binding studies, using the guanine nucleotides, ATP, UTP and CTP, revealed that the di- and triphosphate forms of guanine nucleotides strongly bind Brac1. Membrane-bound PLD activity was synergistically enhanced by Brac1 in the presence of protein kinase C, but not in the presence of ARF (ADP-ribosylation factor). Genomic analysis indicated that Brac1 belongs to a multigene family. Brac1 transcripts were expressed in all the organs of Brassica, but were especially prevalent in flower buds.

Abstract
Activation of adenosine A1 or A3 receptors protects heart cells from ischemia-induced injury. The A3 receptor signals via RhoA and phospholipase D (PLD) to induce cardioprotection. The objective of the study was to investigate how RhoA activates PLD to achieve the anti-ischemic effect of adenosine A3 receptors. In an established cardiac myocyte model of preconditioning using the cultured chick embryo heart cells, overexpression of the RhoA-noninteracting PLD1 mutant I870R selectively blocked the A3 agonist (Cl-IBMECA, 10 nM)-induced cardioprotection. I870R caused a significantly higher percentage of cardiac cells killed in A3 agonist-treated than in A1 agonist (CCPA, 10 nM)-treated myocytes (ANOVA and posttest comparison, P<0.01). Consistent with its inhibitory effect on the PLD activity, I870R attenuated the Cl-IBMECA-mediated PLD activation. Cl-IBMECA caused a 41 +/- 15% increase in PLD activity in mock-transfected myocytes (P<0.01, paired t test) while having only a slight stimulatory effect on the PLD activity in I870R-transfected cells. To further test the anti-ischemic role of a direct RhoA-PLD1 interaction, atrial cardiac myocytes were rendered null for native adenosine receptors by treatment with irreversible A1 antagonist m-DITC-XAC and were selectively transfected with the human adenosine A1 or A3 receptor cDNA individually or they were cotransfected with cDNAs encoding either receptor plus I870R. I870R preferentially inhibited the human A3 receptor-mediated protection from ischemia. The RhoA-noninteracting PLD1 mutant caused a significantly higher percentage of cardiac cells killed in myocytes cotransfected with the human A3 receptor than in those cells expressing the human A1 receptor (ANOVA and posttest comparison, P<0.01). The present data provided the first demonstration of a novel physiological role for the direct RhoA-PLD1 interaction, that of potent protection from cardiac ischemia. The study further supported the concept that a divergent signaling mechanism mediates the anti-ischemic effect of adenosine A1 and A3 receptors.

Abstract
CR3-mediated endocytosis is a primary mechanism by which Neisseria gonorrhoeae elicits membrane ruffling and cellular invasion of the cervical epithelia. Our data indicate that, upon infection of cervical epithelia, N. gonorrhoeae specifically releases proteins, including a phospholipase D (PLD) homolog, which facilitate membrane ruffling. To elucidate the function of gonococcal PLD in infection of the cervical epithelia, we constructed an N. gonorrhoeae PLD mutant. By comparative association and/or invasion assays, we demonstrated that PLD mutant gonococci are impaired in their ability to adhere to and to invade primary cervical cells. This defect can be rescued by the addition of supernatants obtained from wild-type-infected cell monolayers but not by exogenously added Streptomyces PLD. The decreased level of total cell association (i.e., adherence and invasion) observed for mutant gonococci is, in part, attributed to the inability of these bacteria to recruit CR3 to the cervical cell surface with extended infection. Using electron microscopy, we demonstrate that gonococcal PLD may be necessary to potentiate membrane ruffling and clustering of gonococci on the cervical cell surface. These data may be indicative of the inability of PLD mutant gonococci to recruit CR3 to the cervical cell surface. Alternatively, in the absence of gonococcal PLD, signal transduction events required for CR3 clustering may not be activated. Collectively, our data indicate that PLD augments CR3-mediated gonococcus invasion of and survival within cervical epithelia.

Abstract
Our studies have shown that RLIP76 (RALBP1), a 76 kDa Ral-binding, Rho/Rac-GAP and Ral effector protein, is a novel multispecific transporter of xenobiotics as well as GS-Es. Like previously characterized ABC transporters, it mediates ATP-dependent transport of structurally unrelated amphiphilic xenobiotics and displays inherent ATPase activity, which is stimulated by its substrate allocrites. It does not have significant sequence homology with ABC transporters and differs from the ABC transporters in several other important aspects, including (i) lack of any close homologs in humans, (ii) lack of a classical Walker domain, (iii) integral membrane association without clearly defined transmembrane domains and (iv) its role as a direct link to Ras/Ral/Rho and EGF-R signaling through its multifunctional nature, including GAP activity, regulation of exocytosis as well as clathrin-coated pit-mediated receptor endocytosis. Its multifunctional nature derives from the presence of multiple motifs, including a Rho/Rac GAP domain, a Ral effector domain binding motif, 2 distinct ATP-binding domains, a H(+)-ATPase domain, PKC and tyrosine kinase phosphorylation sites and the ability to undergo fragmentation into multiple smaller peptides which participate as components of macromolecular functional complexes. One of the physiologic functions of RLIP76 is regulation of intracellular concentration of the electrophilic intermediates of oxidative lipid metabolism by mediating efflux of GS-E formed from oxidative degradation of arachidonic acid, including leukotrienes and the 4HNE-GSH conjugate. RLIP76-mediated transport of amphiphilic chemotherapeutic agents such as anthracyclines and vinca alkaloids as well as GS-E produced during oxidative metabolism places this multifunctional protein in a central role as a resistance mechanism for preventing apoptosis caused by chemotherapeutic agents and a variety of external/internal stressors, including oxidative stress, heat shock and radiation.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Signaling intermediates for PTH and phorbol activation of PLD in UMR-106 cells were determined. Calcium was required, and the effects of PTH, phorbol, and calcium were dependent on p42/44 MAP kinase and small G proteins, specifically RhoA, acting through Rho kinase. INTRODUCTION Phospholipase D (PLD) plays a key signaling role in numerous cellular processes. PLD-stimulated hydrolysis of phosphatidylcholine (PC) generates phosphatidic acid, a source of diacylglycerol (DAG). We previously reported that parathyroid hormone (PTH) stimulates PLD activity in UMR-106 osteoblastic cells by a protein kinase C (PKC)-independent mechanism. The current study investigated the roles of calcium, MAP kinase, and small G proteins in PTH- and phorbol-12,13-dibutyrate (PDBu)-stimulated transphosphatidylation of ethanol, a reaction catalyzed by PLD. METHODS UMR-106 cells were labeled with 3H-palmitic and treated in the presence of ethanol. Phosphatidylethanol was separated by thin-layer chromatography and detected by autoradiography, and the bands were scraped and counted. Statistical significance of the responses from three to nine replicates was determined by ANOVA and Tukey's post-test. RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS PTH and PDBu effects were attenuated by EGTA, BAPTA, nifedipine, and dantrolene, whereas ionomycin or 2X calcium increased basal PLD activity. PTH activated p42/p44 MAP kinase, and the effects of PTH, PDBu, and ionomycin on PLD, but not on calcium influx, were prevented by the MEK inhibitors PD98059 and U0126. Small G proteins were shown to be involved in the effects of PTH, PDBu, and ionomycin on PLD. Inhibition of ARF by brefeldin prevented the PLD activation by all three agonists. A nonselective Rho/Rac/cdc-42 inhibitor, Clostridium difficile toxin B, also inhibited the effects of all three agonists on PLD. More selective inhibition of RhoA with a dominant negative RhoA construct or by inhibiting geranylgeranyltransferase I antagonized the effects of PTH, PDBu, and ionomycin, as did inhibiting the downstream kinase, Rho kinase. The current results reveal the importance of calcium, MAP kinase, and small G proteins in PTH and PDBu stimulation of PLD activity in UMR-106 cells.

Abstract
We cloned a gene pldA encoding a protein containing phospholipase D (PLD) motifs from a filamentous fungus Aspergillus nidulans. The deduced protein product of pldA consists of 833 amino acids and contains four conserved regions of a PLD gene family. Deletion mutants of pldA grew and formed conidia in a normal manner. Although PLD and transphosphatidylation activities against phosphatidylcholine of the mutant cell extract did not change, the Ca(2+)-dependent PLD activity against phosphatidylethanolamine was significantly reduced, but not in the wild-type cell extract. This activity was markedly enhanced by high osmotic growth conditions in the wild-type cells, and pldA of A. nidulans likely encodes a Ca(2+)-dependent phosphatidylethanolamine-hydrolyzing PLD.

Abstract
To investigate the role of phospholipids in exocytotic secretory events, we utilized rat pancreatic acinar AR42J cells that secreted amylase in response to cholecystokinin octapeptide (CCK-8). Wortmannin, an inhibitor of phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K), was found to inhibit the secretion in a dose-dependent manner. When changes in cell membrane phospholipids were investigated before and after CCK-8 stimulation using [32P]orthophosphoric acid-labeled AR42J cells, we observed a rapid increase in phosphatidic acid (PtdOH) levels right after stimulation, which was not observed in non-stimulated cells. The increase, however, was suppressed by wortmannin pre-treatment, which also inhibited amylase secretion. Changes in other major phospholipids were not significant. These results indicate that CCK-8 induces amylase secretion through PI3K-regulated production of PtdOH in cell membranes.

Abstract
In electrically excitable cells, membrane depolarization opens voltage-dependent Ca(2+) channels eliciting Ca(2+) influx, which plays an important role for the activation of protein kinase C (PKC). However, we do not know whether Ca(2+) influx alone can activate PKC. The present study was conducted to investigate the Ca(2+) influx-induced activation mechanisms for two classes of PKC, conventional PKC (cPKC; PKCalpha) and novel PKC (nPKC; PKCtheta), in insulin-secreting cells. We have demonstrated simultaneous translocation of both DsRed-tagged PKCalpha to the plasma membrane and green fluorescent protein (GFP)-tagged myristoylated alanine-rich C kinase substrate to the cytosol as a dual marker of PKC activity in response to depolarization-evoked Ca(2+) influx in the DsRed-tagged PKCalpha and GFP-tagged myristoylated alanine-rich C kinase substrate co-expressing cells. The result indicates that Ca(2+) influx can generate diacylglycerol (DAG), because cPKC is activated by Ca(2+) and DAG. We showed this in three different ways by demonstrating: 1) Ca(2+) influx-induced translocation of GFP-tagged C1 domain of PKCgamma, 2) Ca(2+) influx-induced translocation of GFP-tagged pleckstrin homology domain, and 3) Ca(2+) influx-induced translocation of GFP-tagged PKCtheta, as a marker of DAG production and/or nPKC activity. Thus, Ca(2+) influx alone via voltage-dependent Ca(2+) channels can generate DAG, thereby activating cPKC and nPKC, whose activation is structurally independent of Ca(2+).

Abstract
The lung contains two distinct forms of phosphatidic acid phosphatase (PAP). PAP1 is a cytosolic enzyme that is activated through fatty acid-induced translocation to the endoplasmic reticulum, where it converts phosphatidic acid (PA) to diacylglycerol (DAG) for the biosynthesis of phospholipids and neutral lipids. PAP1 is Mg(2+) dependent and sulfhydryl reagent sensitive. PAP2 is a six-transmembrane-domain integral protein localized to the plasma membrane. Because PAP2 degrades sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) and ceramide-1-phosphate in addition to PA and lyso-PA, it has been renamed lipid phosphate phosphohydrolase (LPP). LPP is Mg(2+) independent and sulfhydryl reagent insensitive. This review describes LPP isoforms found in the lung and their location in signaling platforms (rafts/caveolae). Pulmonary LPPs likely function in the phospholipase D pathway, thereby controlling surfactant secretion. Through lowering the levels of lyso-PA and S1P, which serve as agonists for endothelial differentiation gene receptors, LPPs regulate cell division, differentiation, apoptosis, and mobility. LPP activity could also influence transdifferentiation of alveolar type II to type I cells. It is considered likely that these lipid phosphohydrolases have critical roles in lung morphogenesis and in acute lung injury and repair.

Abstract
The muscarinic agonist carbachol stimulated phospholipase D (PLD) in rat submandibular gland (RSMG) ductal cells in a time and concentration-dependent manner. This effect was inhibited by chelation of extracellular calcium with ethylene glycol-bis(beta-aminoethyl ether)-N,N,N',N'-tetraacetic acid (EGTA). PLD could also be activated by epinephrine and AlF(4)(-), two polyphosphoinositide-specific phospholipase C (PPI-PLC) activators, and by the phorbol ester o-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate (TPA) which activates protein kinase C (PKC). Ionomycin and thapsigargin only slightly increased PLD activity. Ortho-vanadate, a tyrosine phosphatase inhibitor, also stimulated PLD activity. Both carbachol and o-vanadate increased the formation of inositol phosphates and the tyrosine phosphorylation of at least two proteins (55-60 and 120 kDa). Calphostin C (a PKC inhibitor), U73122 (a PPI-PLC inhibitor) and genistein (a tyrosine kinase inhibitor) blocked the activation of PLD, of PLC and the phosphorylation of tyrosyl residues in response to carbachol and vanadate. Taken together, these results suggest that rat submandibular gland ductal cells express a calcium-dependent PLD activity. This enzyme is regulated by carbachol via a PLC-PKC-tyrosine kinase pathway.

Abstract
Estrogen replacement therapy has been associated with reduction of cardiovascular events in postmenopausal women, though the mechanism for this benefit remains unclear. Here we show that at physiological concentrations estrogen activates the anandamide membrane transporter of human endothelial cells and leads to rapid elevation of calcium (apparent within 5 minutes) and release of nitric oxide (within 15 minutes). These effects are mediated by estrogen binding to a surface receptor, which shows an apparent dissociation constant (K(d)) of 9.4 +/- 1.4 nM, a maximum binding (B(max)) of 356 +/- 12 fmol x mg protein(-1), and an apparent molecular mass of approximately 60 kDa. We also show that estrogen binding to surface receptors leads to stimulation of the anandamide-synthesizing enzyme phospholipase D and to inhibition of the anandamide-hydrolyzing enzyme fatty acid amide hydrolase, the latter effect mediated by 15-lipoxygenase activity. Because the endothelial transporter is shown to move anandamide across the cell membranes bidirectionally, taken together these data suggest that the physiological activity of estrogen is to stimulate the release, rather than the uptake, of anandamide from endothelial cells. Moreover, we show that anandamide released from estrogen-stimulated endothelial cells, unlike estrogen itself, inhibits the secretion of serotonin from adenosine diphosphate (ADP)-stimulated platelets. Therefore, it is suggested that the peripheral actions of anandamide could be part of the molecular events responsible for the beneficial effects of estrogen.

Abstract
Macrophages are critical for control of Listeria monocytogenes infections; accordingly, the interactions of L. monocytogenes with these cells have been intensively studied. It has become apparent that this facultative intracellular pathogen interacts with macrophages both prior to entry and during the intracellular phase. This review covers recent work on signaling induced in macrophages by L. monocytogenes, especially intracellular signals induced by secreted proteins including listeriolysin O and two distinct phospholipases C.

Abstract
Release of FFA from membrane phospholipids was observed after incubation of umbilical cord vein-derived endothelial cells (HUVEC) with vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF). In particular, we found an increase of arachidonate, stearate, and palmitate in a time-dependent manner with a peak at 30 min. The maximum increase was reached by arachidonate (4.4-fold), followed by stearate (2.2-fold) and palmitate (1.3-fold). The arachidonate increase can be ascribed to the activation of phospholipase A2 (PLA2). In fact, cells preincubated with arachidonyl trifluoromethyl ketone, a PLA2 inhibitor, showed a marked reduction in arachidonate mobilization. The role of Ca2+ in PLA2 activation was also investigated. Cells incubated with VEGF in the presence of EGTA showed a marked decrease in arachidonate mobilization, whereas incubation with the calcium ionophore A23187 alone produced an increase in arachidonate, although to a lesser extent compared with the VEGF stimulation. Incubation with A23187 in association with PMA produced the same increase in arachidonate as the VEGF treatment. Mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) activity was also found to increase as a consequence of VEGF stimulation. Taken together, these results suggest that the VEGF-mediated activation of PLA2 in HUVEC is dependent on both MAPK-mediated phosphorylation and Ca2+ increase. Furthermore, the increase in stearate and palmitate likely is brought about by the activation of a pathway involving phospholipase D, phosphatidate phosphohydrolase (PAP), and DAG lipase. In fact, the increase in those FFA was prevented when HUVEC were stimulated with VEGF in the presence of ethanol (which inhibits the formation of phosphatidate), propranolol (a specific inhibitor of PAP), or RHC-80267 (a specific inhibitor of DAG lipase).

Abstract
To examine the functions of the Arf-like protein, Arl1p, in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, a null allele, arl1delta::HIS3, was constructed in two strains. In one background only, loss of ARL1 resulted in temperature-sensitive (ts) growth (suppressed on high-osmolarity media). Allelic variation at the SSD1 locus accounted for differences between strains. Strains lacking ARL1 exhibited several defects in membrane traffic. First, arl1delta strains secreted less protein as measured by TCA-precipitable radioactivity found in the media of [(35)S]-labelled cells. A portion of newly synthesized carboxypeptidase Y (CPY) was secreted rather than correctly targeted to the vacuole. Uptake of the fluid-phase marker, lucifer yellow, was reduced. All these phenotypes were exacerbated in an ssd1 background. The ts phenotype of the arl1deltassd1 strain was suppressed by YPT1, the yeast Rab1a homologue, suggesting that ARL1 and YPT1 have partially overlapping functions. These findings demonstrate that ARL1 encodes a regulator of membrane traffic.
