Abstract
Cancer can be considered a disease of deranged intracellular signalling. The intracellular signalling pathways that mediate the effects of oncogenes on cell growth and transformation present attractive targets for the development of new classes of drugs for the prevention and treatment of cancer. This is a new approach to developing anticancer drugs and the potential, as well as some of the problems, inherent in the approach are discussed. Anticancer drugs that produce their effects by disrupting signalling pathways are already in clinical trial. Some properties of these drugs, as well as other inhibitors of signalling pathways under development as potential anticancer drugs, are reviewed.

Protein tyrosine kinase but not protein kinase C inhibition blocks receptor induced alveolar macrophage activation. Mediators Inflamm 2012; 2:373-7.

Abstract
The selective enzyme inhibitors genistein and Ro 31-8220 were used to assess the importance of protein tyrosine kinase (PTK) and protein kinase C (PKC), respectively, in N-formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine (FMLP) induced generation of superoxide anion and thromboxane B2 (TXB2) in guinea-pig alveolar macrophages (AM). Genistein (3–100 μM) dose dependently inhibited FMLP (3 nM) induced superoxide generation in non-primed AM and TXB2 release in non-primed or in lipopolysaccharide (LPS) (10 ng/ml) primed AM to a level > 80% but had litle effect up to 100 μM on phorbol myristate acetate (PMA) (10 nM) induced superoxide release. Ro 31-8220 inhibited PMA induced superoxide generation (IC50 0.21 ± 0.10 μM) but had no effect on or potentiated (at 3 and 10 μM) FMLP responses in non-primed AM. In contrast, when present during LPS priming as well as during FMLP challenge Ro 31-8220 (10 μM) inhibited primed TXB2 release by > 80%. The results indicate that PTK activation is required for the generation of these inflammatory mediators by FMLP in AM. PKC activation appears to be required for LPS priming but not for transducing the FMLP signal; rather, PKC activation may modulate the signal by a negative feedback mechanism.

Prostaglandin cyclooxygenase products but not thromboxane A(2) are involved in the pathogenesis of ewthromelalgia in thrombocythaemia. Mediators Inflamm 2012; 2:385-9.

Abstract
Fluid of artificial blisters from erythromelalgic skin areas in primary thrombocythaemia contained a high amount of prostaglandin-E-like activity. Dazoxiben did not alleviate the erythromelalgia in patients with primary thrombocythaemia despite complete inhibition of platelet malondialdehyde and thromboxane B(2) synthesis and no inhibition of prostaglandin-E-like material. During a 10-day dazoxiben treatment period, persistent erythromelalgia was associated with a significant shortened mean platelet life span of 3.2 days. During subsequent treatment with low dose acetylsalicylic acid daily complete relief of erythromelalgia was associated with inhibition of platelet prostaglandin endoperoxide production and correction of platelet mean life span to normal, 7.9 days. These observations indicate that prostaglandin E(2), or another prostaglandin endoperoxide metabolite, is involved in the pathogenesisof erythromelalgia. The presented study does not give one single clue as to the origin (platelet, vessel wall or other) of the prostanoid, but very likely originates from platelets because a very low dose of acetylsalicylic acid (250 to 500 mg every other day), which irreversibly inhibits platelet cyclooxygenase, is highly effective in the prevention of erythromelalgia in thrombocythaemia.

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
Protein kinase C (PKC), upon activation, translocates from the cytosol to the plasma membrane. Phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA), a potent PKC activator, is known to induce irreversible translocation of PKC to the plasma membrane, in contrast to the reversible translocation resulting from physiological stimuli and subsequent rapid return to the cytosol (reverse translocation). However, we have previously shown that tyrosine phosphatase (PTPase) inhibitors induce reverse translocation of PMA-stimulated PKCbetaII in porcine polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNs). In the present study, we showed that pervanadate, a potent PTPase inhibitor, also induces tyrosine phosphorylation of PMA-stimulated PKCbetaII in porcine PMNs. Furthermore, PP2, a specific inhibitor of Src-family tyrosine kinases (PTKs), was found to inhibit both pervanadate-induced reverse translocation and tyrosine phosphorylation of PMA-stimulated PKCbetaII, suggesting that these two pervanadate-induced responses are mediated by Src-family PTKs. Our findings provide novel insight into the relationship between the subcellular localization and tyrosine phosphorylation of PKC.

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

Abstract
The intracellular localization of protein kinase C (PKC) is important for the regulation of its biological activity. Recently, it was reported that, whereas phorbol esters such as PMA induce prolonged translocation of PKC to the plasma membrane, with physiological stimuli, the translocation of PKC is transient and followed by rapid return to the cytoplasm. In addition, this membrane dissociation of PKC was shown to require both the kinase activity of PKC and the phosphorylation of its carboxyl terminus autophosphorylation sites. However, the detailed molecular mechanism of PKC reverse translocation remains obscure. We demonstrated that in porcine polymorphonuclear leucocytes (PMNs), phenylarsine oxide (PAO), a putative protein tyrosine phosphatase (PTPase) inhibitor, induced reverse translocation of PMA-stimulated PKCbetaII. Hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2)) in combination with vanadate, both of which are PTPase inhibitors, also induced reverse translocation of PKCbetaII. H(2)O(2) or vanadate alone had little effect on PMA-induced PKCbetaII translocation. Furthermore, genistein and ethanol, which are inhibitors of tyrosine kinase and phospholipase D, respectively, prevented the PKCbetaII reverse translocation induced by the PTPase inhibitors. These results indicate, for the first time, that the tyrosine phosphorylation/phospholipase D pathway may be involved in the process of membrane dissociation of PKC.

Abstract
We have shown earlier that oxidant-induced activation of phospholipase D (PLD) in vascular endothelial cells (ECs) is regulated by protein tyrosine kinases. To further understand the regulation of oxidant-induced PLD activation, we investigated the role of Src kinase. Treatment of bovine pulmonary artery ECs (BPAECs) with a model oxidant, diperoxovanadate (DPV), at 5 microM concentration, for 30 min, stimulated PLD activity (four- to eightfold), which was attenuated by tyrosine kinase inhibitors and by Src kinase-specific inhibitors PP-1 and PP-2, in a dose- and time-dependent fashion. Furthermore, BPAECs exposed to DPV (5 microM) for 2 min showed activation of Src kinase as observed by increased tyrosine phosphorylation and autophosphorylation in Src immunoprecipitates, which was attenuated by PP-2. Src immunoprecipitates of cell lysates from control BPAECs exhibited PLD activity in cell-free preparations, which was Arf- and Rho-sensitive and was enhanced at 2 min of DPV (5 microM) treatment. Also, Western blots of Src immunoprecipitates of control cells revealed the presence of PLD(1) and PLD(2), suggesting the association of PLD with Src kinase under basal conditions. However, exposure of cells to DPV (5 microM) for 2 min enhanced the association of PLD(2) but not PLD(1) with Src. Western blotting of immunoprecipitates of PLD(1) and PLD(2) isoforms of control BPAECs revealed the presence of Src under basal conditions and exposure of cells to DPV (5 microM) for 2 min enhanced the association of PLD(2) with Src in PLD(2) immunoprecipitates. Transient expression of a dominant negative mutant of Src in BPAECs attenuated DPV- but not TPA-induced PLD activation. In cell-free preparations, Src did not phosphorylate either PLD(1) or PLD(2) compared to protein kinase Calpha or p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase. These data show for the first time a direct association of Src with PLD in ECs and regulation of PLD in intact cells.

Abstract
To transmit the information inside the cell, one possibility is the action of an enzyme called kinase that phosphorylates other proteins. To study these enzymes, chemical compound synthesis was needed to know the function and the mechanism of activation. The major difficulty is creating a specific molecule for one kinase. In this study, we test the action of Rho-kinase inhibitors (HA-1077 and Y-32885) on protein kinase C (PKC) in the respiratory burst in the human polymorphonuclear neutrophils. We have shown that these compounds could inhibit the anion superoxide production. To prove their action on PKC, we have shown a decrease of binding of a specific ligand (phorbol-12,13-dibutyrate) with each inhibitor. During its activation, PKC was translocated from the cytoplasm to the plasmic membrane. We have also shown an inhibition of this translocation, proving an inhibition of PKC by HA-1077 and Y-32885.

Abstract
The protein kinase C (PKC) is a serine/threonine kinase, consisting of different isoforms, implicated in numerous processes of signal transduction. To understand this enzyme well, different pharmacological tools were developed. To activate PKC specifically, phorbol esters were previously used but recent research has shown that these compounds are able to stimulate other proteins. Our model is the respiratory burst in the polymorphonuclear neutrophils. A decrease in the inflammatory process was measured using chelerythrine chloride. Action on PKC was proved by a binding study and by showing the absence of translocation of this enzyme from the cytoplasm to the plasmic membrane during stimulation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Treatment of many cell types with phorbol esters stimulates phospholipase D (PLD) activity implying regulation of the enzyme by protein kinase C. Studies of the effects of several protein-tyrosine kinase (PTK) inhibitors have suggested that PTK(s) play some roles in the phorbol ester-induced PLD activation, but it remains unclear how and which PTK(s) is involved in this pathway. In this study, we investigated the roles of Syk and other PTKs for the phorbol esters, 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate (TPA)-induced PLD activation in K562 and DT40 cells. RESULTS TPA-induced PLD activation was remarkably reduced in both Syk dominant negative mutant K562 cells and Syk deficient DT40 B cells. Mutational analysis further indicated that two major autophosphorylation sites (Tyr-518 and Tyr-519) of Syk are critical for PLD activation. Similarly, TPA-induced PLD activation was reduced in Btk deficient cells, but unaffected in Lyn deficient cells. Finally, in cells deficient in the PLC-gamma2, one of the phosphorylated substrates regulated by Syk and Btk, TPA-induced PLD activation, as well as phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2) hydrolysis was remarkably reduced. CONCLUSIONS We demonstrated that the Syk, Btk and PLC-gamma2 pathways are required for TPA-induced PLD activation in DT40 cells.

Abstract
Phospholipase D (PLD) catalyzes the hydrolysis of phosphatidylcholine (PC) to produce phosphatidic acid (PA) and choline. PLD is a major enzyme implicated in important cellular processes, such as cell proliferation. We designed this study to investigate the expression of PLD in human breast carcinomas and non-malignant tissues using RT-PCR, Western blot analysis, immunohistochemistry and an Arf-dependent PLD activity assay. We examined about 550 bp of PCR product and 120 kDa of PLD protein. Our results showed that PLD protein and mRNA levels were overexpressed in 14 of 17 breast cancer tissues. We also observed increased expression by immunohistochemistry and Arf-dependent PLD activity in microsomes of human breast tumors, which correlated well with PLD expression. PLD expression was elevated in human breast tumors compared with normal breast tissues. These results implicate a possible role of PLD in human breast tumorigenesis and suggest that PLD may be useful as a marker for malignant disease in the breast.

Abstract
Phospholipase D2 (PLD2) is expressed in brain and inhibited by synuclein, which is involved in Parkinson's and Alzheimer's diseases. However, the activation mechanism of PLD2 in neuronal cells has not been defined clearly. Hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2)) plays roles in the neurodegenerative diseases and also acts as a second messenger of various molecules such as nerve growth factor. To study regulation mechanisms of PLD2 by H(2)O(2) in neuronal cells, we have made stable PC12 cell lines expressing PLD2 (PLD2-PC12 cells). H(2)O(2) treatment stimulated PLD activity in PLD2-PC12 cells in a dose- and time-dependent manner. This activation was inhibited by the treatment with protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitors or by depletion of PKCalpha, -delta, and -epsilon. Phorbol ester markedly activated PLD2. Co-treatment with phorbol ester and H(2)O(2) did not show an additive effect. Chelation of extracellular calcium substantially blocked the H(2)O(2)-induced activation of PLD2. A calcium ionophore induced PLD2 activation in a PKC-dependent manner. Protein-tyrosine kinase inhibitors inhibited H(2)O(2)-induced PLD activation slightly. These data indicate that H(2)O(2) can activate PLD2 in PC12 cells and that this activation is largely dependent on PKC and Ca(2+) ions and minimally dependent on tyrosine phosphorylation.

Abstract
Angiotensin (Ang) II acts as a mitogen in vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC) via the activation of multiple signaling cascades, including phospholipase C, tyrosine kinase, and mitogen-activated protein kinase pathways. However, increasing evidence supports signal-activated phospholipases A(2) and D (PLD) as additional mechanisms. Stimulation of PLD results in phosphatidic acid (PA) formation, and PA has been linked to cell growth. However, the direct involvement of PA or its metabolite diacylglycerol (DAG) in Ang II-induced growth is unclear. PLD activity was measured in cultured rat VSMC prelabeled with [(3)H]oleic acid, while the incorporation of [(3)H]thymidine was used to monitor growth. We have previously reported the Ang II-dependent, AT(1)-coupled stimulation of PLD and growth in VSMC. Here, we show that Ang II (100 nM) and exogenous PLD (0.1-100 units/mL; Streptomyces chromofuscus) stimulated thymidine incorporation (43-208% above control). PA (100 nM-1 microM) also increased thymidine incorporation to 135% of control. Propranolol (100 nM-10 microM), which inhibits PA phosphohydrolase, blocked the growth stimulated by Ang II, PLD, or PA by as much as 95%, an effect not shared by other beta-adrenergic antagonists. Propranolol also increased the production of PA in the presence of Ang II by 320% and reduced DAG and arachidonic acid (AA) accumulation. The DAG lipase inhibitor RHC-80267 (1-10 microM) increased Ang II-induced DAG production, while attenuating thymidine incorporation and release of AA. Thus, it appears that activation of PLD, formation of PA, conversion of PA to DAG, and metabolism of DAG comprise an important signaling cascade in Ang II-induced growth of VSMC.

Abstract
Phospholipase D (PLD) plays an important role in signaling through phosphatidylcholine (PC) and in the production of superoxide (respiratory burst) by polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN) stimulated by the chemoattractant fMet-Leu-Phe (fMLP). However, the regulation of PLD activity by protein kinases is not fully understood. In the present study, we have used a mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase inhibitor (PD 98059) to investigate a possible connection between extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) and PLD activity and respiratory burst. Using a range of concentrations (3-20 microM) which inhibit ERK activity, PD 98059 inhibited PLD activity induced by fMLP in cytochalasin B-primed PMN, as assessed by production-tritiated phosphatidylethanol (PEt), phosphatidic acid (PA), and hydrolysis of PC. However, the inhibition was partial (approximately 50%), while inhibition of PC hydrolysis was almost complete, suggesting a concomitant inhibition of PLA2 activity. In addition, PD 98059 reduced fMLP-induced respiratory burst by 50%, an effect which was correlated with PLD inhibition of PLD (r = 0.981, P < 0.01), and neither did PD 98059 inhibit the PLD activity and respiratory burst induced by PKC upon its direct activation by phorbol myristate acetate. These data provide the first evidence for implication of the ERK cascade in the stimulation of PLD through Gi signaling. They further indicate that PLD stimulation by fMLP receptors occurs through two pathways, dependent and independent on MAP kinase, the former pathway being linked to superoxide production.

Abstract
The rapid production of phosphatidic acid following receptor stimulation has been demonstrated in a wide range of mammalian cells. Virtually every cell uses phosphatidylcholine as substrate to produce phosphatidic acid in a controlled reaction catalyzed by specific PLD isoforms. Considerable effort has been directed at studying the regulation of PLD activities and subsequent work has characterized a family of proteins including PLD1 and PLD2. Whereas both PLD enzymes are dependent on phosphatidylinositol 4, 5-bisphosphate for activity only the PLD1 isoform was strongly stimulated by the small GTPases ARF and RhoA and by protein kinase Calpha as well. A role for tyrosine kinase activities in the membrane recruitment of small GTPases, in the synthesis of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate and tyrosine phosphorylation of PLD1 and PLD2 has been uncovered. However, it still not clear exactly how tyrosine phosphorylation of proteins contributes to PLD activation in cells. Here we review the data linking tyrosine phosphorylation of proteins to the activation of PLD and describe recent finding on the sites and possible mechanisms of action of tyrosine kinases in receptor-mediated PLD activation. Finally, a model illustrating the potential complex interplay linking these signaling events with the activation of PLD is presented.

Abstract
Phospholipase D (PLD) is a widely distributed enzyme that is under elaborate control by hormones, neurotransmitters, growth factors and cytokines in mammalian cells. Protein kinase C (PKC) plays a major role in the regulation of the PLD1 isozyme through interaction with its N-terminus. PKC activates this isozyme by a non-phosphorylation mechanism in vitro, but phosphorylation plays a role in the action of PKC on the enzyme in vivo. Although PLD1 can be phosphorylated by PKC in vitro, it is unclear that this occurs in vivo. Small GTPases of the ADP-ribosylation factor (ARF) and Rho families directly activate PLD1 in vitro and there is evidence that Rho proteins are involved in agonist regulation of PLD1 in vivo. ARF proteins stimulate PLD activity in the Golgi apparatus, but the role of these proteins in agonist regulation of the enzyme is less clear. PLD1 undergoes tyrosine phosphorylation in response to H(2)O(2) treatment of cells. The functional consequence of this phosphorylation and soluble tyrosine kinase(s) involved are presently unknown.

Abstract
When the hematopoietic growth factor granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor was incubated with neutrophils adherent to plastic tissue culture plates or plates coated with extracellular matrix proteins, a rapid (3 min) but transient formation of phosphatidic acid was observed. This stimulation was dependent on the dose of GM-CSF, with an EC50 of 140 pM, and was further enhanced (up to 350%) with the PA phosphatase inhibitor propranolol in a dose-dependent manner. Conversely, GM-CSF was unable to trigger any PA formation in neutrophils maintained in suspension, even in the presence of soluble fibronectin. However, GM-CSF did prime the cells for enhanced PA formation in the presence of a secondary stimulus (fMet-Leu-Phe or PAF). GM-CSF also caused a time-dependent stimulation of diacylglycerol formation in adherent, but not suspended, cells and elicited a time-dependent stimulation of phosphatidylethanol formation, with a concomitant decrease in the formation of PA only at early (< 7 min) times. These observations were consistent with a rapid activation of the enzyme phospholipase D in adherent cells stimulated with GM-CSF. Additional data indicated that the source of DAG was PLD coexisting with PLC, especially at later times ( > 7 min) of stimulation with GM-CSF. Finally, the formation of PA and PEt, and to a minor extent, DAG, were inhibited by the protein tyrosine kinase inhibitor erbstatin in conditions in which tyrosine phosphorylation occurred. Taken together the data indicate that GM-CSF rapidly activates PLD in adherent cells, which is responsible for the generation of PA. Thus, PLD activation is an early event in neutrophil signal transduction following exposure of adherent cells to GM-CSF.

Abstract
Protein kinase Calpha (PKCalpha) and small GTPases of the Rho and ADP-ribosylation factor (Arf) family are implicated in the regulation of phospholipase D1 (PLD1) activity. Although they are involved in fMet-Leu-Phe (fMLP)-mediated PLD activation, their role in monosodium urate (MSU)-stimulated PLD1 activity in human neutrophils is not clear. The translocation of PKCalpha, RhoA and Arf from the cytosol to the membranes was monitored. fMLP induced a cytochalasin B (CB)-dependent recruitment of Arf, RhoA and PKCalpha to neutrophil membranes. CB also increased the activation of PLD 10-fold. In contrast with fMLP, MSU stimulated a sustained and time-dependent relocalization of Arf and PKCalpha, but not of RhoA, to the membrane fraction. MSU-stimulated PLD was activated with a time course preceding membrane recruitment of Arf and PKCalpha in the absence of CB. Furthermore, MSU-induced PLD activation and the membrane recruitment of PKCalpha, but not that of Arf, were inhibited by CB. An anti-FcgammaRIIIB antibody, VIFcRIII, prevented the membrane relocalization of Arf and PKCalpha and the stimulation of the levels of tyrosine phosphorylation and of PLD activity induced by MSU. Erbstatin and ST-638, two inhibitors of tyrosine kinases, inhibited the MSU-induced translocation of Arf and PKCalpha but not MSU-induced tyrosine phosphorylation and PLD activation. Furthermore MSU crystals did not cause the tyrosine phosphorylation of PLD1. The present study indicates that soluble and particulate agonists show selectivity in inducing the translocation of RhoA in neutrophils and that the ability of MSU to increase PLD activation was independent of the membrane relocalization of Arf and PKCalpha.

Abstract
We have investigated the mechanisms involved in H2O2-mediated phospholipase D (PLD) activation in Swiss 3T3 fibroblasts. In the presence of vanadate, H2O2 induced tyrosine phosphorylation of PLD as well as the platelet-derived growth (PDGF) factor receptor, protein kinase Calpha (PKCalpha), and a 62-kDa protein in rat brain PLD1 (rPLD1) immune complexes. PDGF also induced tyrosine phosphorylation of PLD, but this was abolished by catalase, indicating that it was mediated by H2O2 generation. Interestingly, PLD was found to be constitutively associated with the PDGF receptor and PKCalpha. Stimulation by H2O2 showed a concentration- and time-dependent tyrosine phosphorylation of the proteins in rPLD1 immunoprecipitates and activation of PLD in the cells. Pretreatment of the cells with the protein-tyrosine kinase inhibitors genistein and herbimycin A resulted in a concentration-dependent inhibition of H2O2-induced tyrosine phosphorylation and PLD activation. Activation of PLD by H2O2 was also inhibited dose-dependently by the PKC inhibitors Ro 31-8220 and calphostin C. Down-regulation of PKC by prolonged treatment with 4beta-phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate also abolished H2O2-stimulated PLD activity. H2O2 or vanadate alone did not induce tyrosine phosphorylation of proteins in the rPLD1 immune complex or PLD activation. Reduction of intracellular H2O2 levels by pretreatment of the cells with catalase dramatically abrogated tyrosine phosphorylation of proteins in the rPLD1 immune complex and PLD activation, suggesting the potential role of intracellular H2O2 in H2O2-mediated PLD signaling. Taken together, these results suggest that both protein-tyrosine kinase(s) and protein kinase C participate in H2O2-induced PLD activation in Swiss 3T3 cells.

Abstract
Superoxide (O2) production and intracellular signal transduction of neutrophils were evaluated in five Holstein dairy calves and five lactating cows. Opsonised zymosan (OPZ)-induced O2 production by neutrophils from neonatal calves was significantly higher (P<0.01) than that of neutrophils of cows, whereas heat-aggregated IgG (H-agg.IgG)- and phorbol myristate acetate (PMA)-induced O2 production of neutrophils were significantly lower (P< or =0.01) than those of cows. To clarify the functional differences of intracellular signal transduction in neutrophils between neonatal calves and cows, the activities of protein kinase C (PKC) and tyrosine phosphorylation were evaluated in OPZ-, H-agg.IgG- and PMA-stimulated neutrophils. Membrane-associated PKC activity of OPZ-stimulated neutrophils from neonatal calves was significantly higher (P<0.05) than that of cows, whereas PKC activity in membrane-associated fractions of H-agg.IgG-stimulated neutrophils from neonatal calves was significantly lower (P<0.05) than that of cows. A significant difference was not found in membrane-associated PKC activity of neutrophils stimulated with PMA between neonatal calves and cows. The amount of tyrosine phosphorylated 100 kDa protein in neutrophils from neonatal calves stimulated with OPZ, H-agg.IgG and PMA were 192.6, 67.8 and 97.2 per cent of those of cows, respectively. These results indicate that complement receptor type 3 (CR3)- and Fc receptor (FcR)-mediated O2 producing activities of neutrophils are clearly different between neonatal calves and cows. This phenomenon may be associated with the age-related changes in intracellular signal transduction of neutrophils including PKC activity and tyrosine phosphorylation of cellular protein.

Abstract
Soluble immune complexes activate a rapid burst of reactive oxidant secretion from neutrophils that have previously been primed with GM-CSF. Binding of these complexes to the cell surface of unprimed neutrophils results in the generation of intracellular Ca2+ transients, but the NADPH oxidase fails to become activated. No phospholipase D activity was observed following the addition of soluble immune complexes to unprimed cells. Upon priming with GM-CSF, the intracellular Ca2+ signal generated following soluble complex binding was greatly extended and phospholipase D was activated: there was also increased phosphorylation of proteins on tyrosine residues and the NADPH oxidase was activated. When Ca2+ influx was prevented, this phospholipase D activity was not observed. This primed oxidase activity was completely inhibited by erbstatin. Treatment of unprimed neutrophils with pervanadate (to inhibit protein tyrosine phosphatases) mimicked the effects of priming in that pervanadate-treated neutrophils secreted reactive oxidants in response to soluble immune complexes. The data indicate that during priming a new signaling pathway is activated that involves Ca2+ influx, phosphorylation on tyrosine residues, phospholipase D activity, and NADPH oxidase activation.

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

Abstract
Abstract
Experiments were designed to investigate whether leukotriene (LTB4) receptors can couple directly to phospholipase A2 (PLA2) in guinea pig eosinophils and the role of endogenous arachidonic acid (AA) in LTB4-induced activation of the NADPH oxidase. LTB4 (EC50 ∼ 16 nM) and AA (EC50 ∼ 6 μM) generated hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) in a concentration-dependent manner and at an equivalent maximum rate (5–6 nmol/min/106 cells). LTB4 stimulated PLA2 over a similar concentration range that activated the NADPH oxidase, although kinetic studies revealed that the release of [3H]AA (t1/2 ∼ 2 s) preceded H2O2 generation (t1/2 > 30 s). Pretreatment of eosinophils with pertussis toxin abolished the increase in inositol(1,4,5)trisphosphate mass, [Ca2+]c, [3H]AA release, and H2O2 generation evoked by LTB4. Qualitatively identical results were obtained in eosinophils in which phospholipase C (PLC) was desensitized by 4β-phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate with the exception that [3H]AA release was largely unaffected. Additional studies performed with the protein kinase C inhibitor, Ro 31-8220, and under conditions in which Ca2+ mobilization was abolished, provided further evidence that LTB4 released [3H]AA independently of signal molecules derived from the hydrolysis of phosphatidylinositol(4,5)bisphosphate by PLC. Pretreatment of eosinophils with the PLA2 inhibitor, mepacrine, abolished LTB4-induced [3H]AA release at a concentration that inhibited H2O2 by only 36%. Collectively, the results of this study indicate that agonism of LTB4 receptors on guinea pig eosinophils mobilizes AA by a mechanism that does not involve the activation of PLC. In addition, although LTB4 effectively stimulated PLA2, a central role for AA in the activation of the NADPH oxidase was excluded.

Abstract
On immunoblots of human neutrophil cytoplasts (U-CYT), a previously undescribed 97 kDa protein was revealed by intense and selective reaction with an antibody that was initially raised to recognize PKC-gamma. Denoted "gamma-rp" for gamma-related protein, this acidic cytosolic protein somewhat resembled the classic forms of PKC in several biochemical respects. Appearing as a doublet on low-percentage SDS-PAGE gels, both its mobility and staining pattern were rapidly altered by treatment of U-CYT with either phorbol ester or chemotactic peptide. Whole neutrophil gamma-rp was detectable only after TCA precipitation of intact cells. It was also detectable in human platelets, lymphocytes, and neutrophil-like differentiated HL60 cells, but not in fibroblasts, erythrocytes, monocytes, or monocyte-like differentiated HL60 cells. Our data suggest that gamma-rp merits further study as a potential participant in cellular activation, and as a possible structural or functional relative of PKC.

Abstract
A potent tyrosine phosphatase inhibitor, pervanadate, induced (i) translocation of the cytosolic NADPH oxidase factors, p47-phox and p67-phox, to the plasma membrane; and (ii) O2- production in human neutrophils. However, the translocation of p47-phox and p67-phox was inhibited by H-7, a protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitor without markedly affecting O2- production in whole neutrophils. Results from the plasma membrane fraction showed that NADPH oxidase activity in neutrophils treated with pervanadate did not vary in the presence or absence of H-7, despite a lower content of p47-phox and p67-phox in H-7-treated neutrophils. These findings suggest that in addition to the well-known PKC-dependent pathway, there may exist another PKC-independent pathway to activate NADPH oxidase in human neutrophils. This pathway involves protein tyrosine phosphorylation but does not seem to necessitate translocation of p47-phox and p67-phox to the plasma membrane.

Abstract
The use of bisindolylmaleimide derivatives of staurosporine as selective inhibitors of protein kinase C (PKC) is in doubt following the report by Alessi [FEBS Lett. 402 (1997) 121-123] that Ro31-8220 and GF109203X are potent in vitro inhibitors of p70 S6 kinase and mitogen-activated protein kinase-activated protein kinase-1beta, as well as of PKC. Here we show that the phorbol ester-stimulated release of choline- and ethanolamine-metabolites from C6 glioma cells due to phospholipid hydrolysis by phospholipase D (PLD) is not inhibited by rapamycin or PD98059, specific inhibitors respectively of p70 S6 kinase and MAPKK (MEK) and thus of MAPKAP kinase-1beta but is still completely blocked by Ro31-8220. We conclude therefore that p70S6k and MAPKAP kinase-1beta as well as MAPK are not involved in signalling pathways downstream of PKC that regulate phorbol ester-stimulated phospholipid turnover and that the inhibitory action of Ro31-8220 occurs by blocking PKC which regulates at least one pathway to PLD activation. The PI-3 kinase inhibitor, wortmannin, inhibits the phorbol ester-stimulated release of ethanolamine- but not choline-metabolites from C6 cells suggesting that different PLD isoforms regulate the turnover of PtdEth and PtdCho in C6 cells. Both PLD isoforms are activated via PKC but the PtdEth-PLD is also regulated via a wortmannin-sensitive pathway.

Abstract
1 Differential HL60 cells have been utilized as a model system to examine the 'priming' of neutrophil phospholipase A2 activity. In control cells activation of phospholipase A2 by a 5 min stimulation with the chemotactic peptide formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine (100 nM) was essentially undetectable. When cells were primed by preincubation with 5 microns cytochalasin B for 5 min arachidonate release, a measure of phospholipase A2 activation, was observed within 20 s. 2 Priming by cytochalasin B did not involve or require a change in intracellular free calcium concentration. 3 Priming was associated with an increase in general protein tyrosine phosphorylation and could also be induced by the receptor tyrosine kinase agonist granulocyte macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF, 20 ng ml-1) and be mimicked by treatment with the phosphotyrosine phosphatase inhibitor perhydrovanadate (0.5 mM). However, increase in MAP kinase activity was not involved in the priming process. 4 Western blot analysis demonstrated that phospholipase A2 was phosphorylated in both control and primed cells, but that an increase in the amount of membrane associated enzyme was found in the primed cells. 5 Thus priming appears to be due to membrane association of the phospholipase and this may be regulated by tyrosine kinase activities.

Abstract
We have previously reported that endothelial cell phospholipase D (PLD), activated by 4-hydroxynonenal (4-HNE), was independent of protein kinase C activation. To determine whether PLD stimulation by 4-HNE is related to protein tyrosine phosphorylation, the effects of tyrosine kinase (Tyrk) and protein tyrosine phosphatase (PTPase) inhibitors on PLD activation were investigated. Pretreatment of bovine pulmonary artery endothelial cells (BPAEC) with Tyrk inhibitors, such as genistein, erbstatin, and herbimycin attenuated 4-HNE-induced PLD activation. Furthermore, vanadate, phenylarsine oxide, and diamide, inhibitors of PTPases, markedly increased the 4-HNE-induced PLD activation. The effects of Tyrk and PTPase inhibitors were specific towards the 4-HNE, as these agents had no effect on the agonist- or TPA-induced PLD activation. In addition to PLD activation, treatment of BPAEC with 4-HNE increased tyrosine phosphorylation of proteins including bands of molecular weights 40,000-60,000, 70,000-90,000, and 110,000-130,000. The 4-HNE-mediated increase in protein tyrosine phosphorylation was partly inhibited by genistein (100 microM). Vanadate (10 microM) pretreatment also potentiated 4-HNE-induced protein tyrosine phosphorylation. These data suggest that 4-HNE-mediated stimulation of PLD may occur as a result of activation of tyrosine kinases.

Abstract
Neutrophils produce superoxide anion (O2-) when exposed in vitro to Aroclor 1242, a mixture of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs). The mechanism for this effect shares some similarities with the mechanism by which the physiologic agonist f-Met-Leu-Phe (fMLP) activates neutrophils. Since production of O2- in response to fMLP involves GTP-binding proteins and protein tyrosine kinases (PTKs), the current study was undertaken to determine whether these signalling pathways are involved in PCB-induced neutrophil activation. Neutrophils exposed to Aroclor 1242 or fMLP produced significant O2-. Pretreatment of intact neutrophils with pertussis toxin or cholera toxin or exposure of permeabilized cells to GDPbetaS significantly inhibited O2- production in fMLP-treated neutrophils but did not alter the response to Aroclor 1242. Pretreatment with genistein, an inhibitor of PTKs, significantly inhibited O2- production in both Aroclor 1242- and fMLP-treated neutrophils; however, daidzein, a structural analogue of genistein which lacks activity against PTKs, was without effect. Exposure of neutrophils to Aroclor 1242 resulted in an increase within 1 min in tyrosine phosphorylation of proteins in the 40 and 60 kDa molecular mass ranges which persisted for up to 10 min. Similar results were obtained with 2,2',4,4'-tetrachlorobiphenyl (2,2',4,4'-TCB), a PCB congener that stimulates O2- production. In contrast, 3,3',4,4',5-pentachlorobiphenyl (3,3',4,4',5-PeCB), a congener that does not generate O2-, caused only a transient increase in tyrosine phosphorylation of proteins in the 40 kDa range with no effect on 60 kDa proteins. These data suggest that Aroclor 1242 activates neutrophils to produce O2- by a mechanism that requires tyrosine kinase activity; however, heterotrimeric G-proteins are not likely to be involved.

Abstract
We have previously shown that alpha2-adrenergic receptor-mediated coupling to phospholipase D (PLD) in vascular tissues requires a tyrosine kinase activity (Jinsi, A., Paradise, J., and Deth, R. C. (1996) Eur. J. Pharmacol. 302, 183-190). To further clarify this mode of regulation we reconstituted alpha2A/D-adrenergic receptor-stimulated PLD activity in PC12 cells expressing the cloned receptor. [3H]Myristic acid-labeled cells were lysed by nitrogen cavitation, and aliquots of subnuclear fraction were utilized in the PLD assay. Agonist-stimulated PLD activity was measured in the presence of 0.4% butanol as [3H]phosphatidylbutanol formation. Both GTP and its non-hydrolyzable analog guanosine 5'-O-(thiotriphosphate) stimulated PLD activity in a concentration- and time-dependent manner that required co-activation of protein kinase C by phorbol dibutyrate. Addition of epinephrine produced a 3-fold stimulation of PLD activity in the presence of GTP and GDP. This agonist-stimulated PLD activity was completely blocked by the alpha2-adrenergic receptor antagonist rauwolscine and by Clostridium botulinum toxin as well as by antibodies directed against either pp60(src), RhoA, or Ras GTPase-activating protein. These results indicate that coupling of the alpha2A/D-adrenergic receptor to PLD is complexly regulated by both the tyrosine kinase pp60(src) and the low molecular weight G protein RhoA.

Abstract
We investigated the effect of bioflavonoid quercetin on tyrosine phosphorylation and phospholipase D (PLD, EC 3.1.4.4) activation in rabbit peritoneal neutrophils stimulated by N-formylmethionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine (fMLP). The quercetin dose-dependently inhibited degranulation and superoxide production in fMLP-stimulated neutrophils. A strong inhibitory effect of quercetin on the tyrosine phosphorylation of several proteins (40, 42, 43, 45, 46 and 75 kDa) was observed when the neutrophils were pretreated with different concentrations of quercetin. Furthermore, quercetin inhibited mitogen activated protein kinase (MAP kinase) and PLD activation induced by fMLP in a dose-dependent manner. The reduction in PLD activity was 30% at 0.1 microM and 70% at 100 microM of quercetin. These results suggest that impairment of neutrophil functions by quercetin may be due, at least in part, to inhibition of tyrosine phosphorylation and PLD activation.

Abstract
1. The possible mechanisms of action of the inhibitory effect of abruquinone A on the respiratory burst in rat neutrophils in vitro was investigated. 2. Abruquinone A caused an irreversible and a concentration-dependent inhibition of formylmethionylleucyl-phenylalanine (fMLP) plus dihydrocytochalasin B (CB)- and phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA)-induced superoxide anion (O2.-) generation with IC50 values of 0.33 +/- 0.05 microgram ml-1 and 0.49 +/- 0.04 microgram ml-1, respectively. 3. Abruquinone A also inhibited O2 consumption in neutrophils in response to fMLP/CB and PMA. However, abruquinone A did not scavenge the generated O2.- in xanthine-xanthine oxidase system and during dihydroxyfumaric acid (DHF) autoxidation. 4. Abruquinone A inhibited both the transient elevation of [Ca2+]i in the absence of [Ca2+]o (IC50 7.8 +/- 0.2 micrograms ml-1) and the generation of inositol trisphosphate (IP3) (IC50 10.6 +/- 2.0 micrograms ml-1) in response to fMLP. 5. Abruquinone A did not affect the enzyme activaties of neutrophil cytosolic protein kinase C (PKC) and porcine heart protein kinase A (PKA). 6. Abruquinone A had no effect on intracellular guanosine 3':5'-cyclic monophosphate (cyclic GMP) levels but decreased the adenosine 3':5'-cyclic monophosphate (cyclic AMP) levels. 7. The cellular formation of phosphatidic acid (PA) and phosphatidylethanol (PEt) induced by fMLP/ CB was inhibited by abruquinone A with IC50 values of 2.2 +/- 0.6 micrograms ml-1 and 2.5 +/- 0.3 micrograms ml-1, respectively. Abruquinone A did not inhibit the fMLP/CB-induced protein tyrosine phosphorylation but induced additional phosphotyrosine accumulation on proteins of 73-78 kDa in activated neutrophils. 8. Abruquinone A inhibited both the O2.- generation in PMA-activated neutrophil particulate NADPH oxidase (IC50 0.6 +/- 0.1 microgram ml-1) and the iodonitrotetrazolium violet (INT) reduction in arachidonic acid (AA)-activated cell-free system (IC50 1.5 +/- 0.2 micrograms ml-1) 9. Collectively, these results indicate that the inhibition of respiratory burst in rat neutrophils by abruquinone A is mediated partly by the blockade of phospholipase C (PLC) and phospholipase D (PLD) pathways, and by suppressing the function of NADPH oxidase through the interruption of electron transport.

Abstract
The trivalent metals iron, aluminum, and gallium greatly increase the rate of iron acquisition from low molecular weight chelates by human myeloid cells. The present study explores the mechanism responsible. Gallium-induced iron acquisition was shown to lead to stable cellular association of iron, the magnitude of which varied with the chelate to which the iron was bound. The majority of this iron initially associated with the plasma membrane. Cellular depletion of ATP did not affect the response to gallium nor did it require the continued presence of extracellular gallium. However, continued cell association of gallium was needed as subsequent cellular exposure to metal chelators resulted in a rapid loss of the "induced" phenotype. Other trivalent metals (lanthanum and gadolinium) and tetravalent metals (tin and zirconium) but not divalent metals also induced iron acquisition. Neither enhanced iron reduction nor protein kinase C or tyrosine kinases appeared involved in gallium-mediated induction of iron acquisition. Exposure of HL-60 cells to polyvalent cationic metals results in a dramatic and sustained increase in the rate of iron acquisition from low molecular weight chelating agents. This could be important for the rapid clearance of iron by phagocytes from the extracellular environment at sites of local tissue damage.

Abstract
Previous studies implicating a role for protein kinase C (PKC) in mediating stimulation of cellular responses by physiological agonists have relied on use of non-specific inhibitors or direct stimulation of PKC by phorbol esters. However, much of this evidence is questionable. Here, we have investigated the effects of a potent and selective PKC inhibitor, Ro 31-8425, on three different responses of human neutrophils stimulated by either a physiological agonist, C5a, or a phorbol ester, PMA. The responses studied were superoxide generation, collagenase secretion and adhesion to endothelial cells. In each case, the PMA-stimulated response was more sensitive to inhibition than the C5a-stimulated response. Even the PMA-stimulated responses differed in their sensitivity to inhibition, with superoxide production being the most sensitive and adhesion at least sensitive. The different sensitivities of the PMA stimulated responses suggest that, although activation of PKC stimulates the responses, either different degrees of activation or different isozymes are required for the different responses. The lower sensitivity of the C5a-stimulated responses in each case suggests that PKC activation, if needed at all, is not rate limiting in these signal transduction pathways. These results emphasize the redundancy in intracellular signal transduction.

Abstract
Norathyriol, aglycone of a xanthone C-glycoside mangiferin isolated from Tripterospermum lanceolatum, concentration dependently inhibited the formylmethionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine (fMLP)-induced superoxide anion (O2.-) generation and O2 consumption in rat neutrophils. In cell-free oxygen radical generating system, norathyriol inhibited the O2.- generation during dihydroxyfumaric acid (DHF) autoxidation and in hypoxanthine-xanthine oxidase system. fMLP-induced transient elevation of [Ca2/]i and the formation of inositol trisphosphate (IP3) were significantly inhibited by norathyriol (30 microM) (about 30 and 46% inhibition, respectively). Norathyriol concentration dependently suppressed the neutrophil cytosolic phospholipase C (PLC). In contrast with the marked attenuation of fMLP-induced protein tyrosine phosphorylation (about 70% inhibition at 10 microM norathyriol), norathyriol only slightly modulated the phospholipase D (PLD) activity as determined by the formation of phosphatidic acid (PA) and, in the presence of ethanol, phosphatidylethanol (PEt). Norathyriol did not modulate the intracellular cyclic AMP level. In the presence of NADPH, the phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA)-activated particulate NADPH oxidase activity was suppressed by norathyriol in a concentration-dependent manner and the inhibition was noncompetitive with respect to NADPH. Norathyriol inhibited the iodonitrotetrazolium violet (INT) reduction in arachidonic acid (AA)-activated cell-free NADPH oxidase system at the same concentration range as those used in the suppression of PMA-activated particulate NADPH oxidase activity. Taken together, these results suggest that the scavenging ability of norathyriol contributes to the reduction of generated O2.-, however, the inhibition of O2.- generation from neutrophils by norathyriol is attributed to the blockade of PLC pathway, the attenuation of protein tyrosine phosphorylation, and to the suppression of NADPH oxidase through the interruption of electrons transport.

Abstract
1. The possible mechanisms of the inhibitory effect of ethyl 2-(3-hydroxyanilino)-4-oxo-4,5-dihydrofuran-3-carboxylate (HAJ11) on the respiratory burst of rat neutrophils in vitro was investigated. 2. HAJ11 caused a reversible and a concentration-dependent inhibition of formyl-Met-Leu-Phe (fMLP)-induced superoxide anion (O2.-) generation (IC50 4.9 +/- 0.7 microM) and O2 consumption (IC50 4.9 +/- 1.5 microM). Concanavalin A (Con A)- and NaF-induced O2.- generation were also suppressed by HAJ11. However, HAL11 was a weak inhibitor of the phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA)-induced responses. 3. HAJ11 did not scavenge the /2.- generation in the xanthine-xanthine oxidase system and dihydroxyfumaric acid (DHF) autoxidation. 4. HAJ11 showed no activity on fMLP-induced inositol phosphates formation and [Ca2+]i elevation in intact neutrophils. In addition, HAJ11 had no effect on neutrophil cytosolic phospholipase C (PLC) activity. 5. HAJ11 reduced fMLP-induced phosphatidic acid (PA) (IC50 29.1 +/- 6.5 microM) and phosphatidylethanol (PE+) (IC50 22.6 +/- 1.9 microM) formation in a concentration-dependent manner. HAJ11 also reduced protein tyrosine phosphorylation in neutrophils stimulated by fMLP. 6. HAJ11 was a weak inhibitor of neutrophil cytosolic protein kinase C (PKC) activity, and had a negligible effect on brain PKC. Cellular cyclic nucleotides levels were not altered by HAJ11. In addition, HAJ11 did not affect protein kinase A (PKA) activity. 7. HAJ11 had not effect on the O2.- generation of PMA-activated and arachidonic acid (AA)-activated NADPH oxidase preparations. 8. Taken together these results indicate that the inhibition of respiratory burst by HAJ11 probably mainly occurs through inhibition of protein tyrosine phosphorylation and phospholipase D (PLD) activity.

Abstract
Rat basophilic leukemia (RBL-2H3) cells, which exhibit Ca2+-dependent secretion of granules when stimulated with antigen or the Ca2+-ionophore A23187, were observed under a video-enhanced light/fluorescence microscope. Exocytotic events of individual granules were visualized in individual cells stimulated with antigen or A23187. Exocytosis of granules stimulated with A23187 showed two peaks in the time course. The earlier one was inhibited by selective inhibitors of protein kinase C (Ro31-8425, Ro31-8220, and chelerythrine) and the other was inhibited by an inhibitor of phosphatidate hydrolase, propranolol. Exocytosis by antigen stimulation, however, showed only one peak, which was inhibited by the selective inhibitors of protein kinase C, but not by propranolol. These results indicate that at least two distinct components of exocytosis exist in RBL-2H3 cells.

Abstract
1. Tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF alpha) increases the expression of the adhesion molecule intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) on cultured endothelial and epithelial cells and modulation of this may be important in controlling inflammation. Activation of tyrosine kinase(s) is known to be involved in the signal transduction pathways of many cytokines. In this study we have investigated the effects of the tyrosine kinase inhibitors, ST638, tyrphostin AG 1288 and genistein, on TNF alpha-induced ICAM-1 expression in human alveolar epithelial (A549) and vascular endothelial (EAhy926) cell lines and also normal human lung microvascular endothelial cells (HLMVEC). 2. ICAM-1 expression on cultured cells was determined by a sensitive enzyme-linked immunosorbant assay (ELISA). Endothelial or epithelial monolayers were exposed to increasing doses of TNF-alpha (0.01-10 ng ml-1), in the presence or absence of either ST638 (3-100 microM), AG 1288 (3-100 microM) or genistein (100 microM) and ICAM-1 expression was measured at 4 and 24 h. Control experiments examined the effect of ST638 on phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA, 20 ng ml-1, 4 h)-stimulated ICAM-1 and compared it to that of a specific protein kinase C inhibitor, R031-8220 (10 microM). Also, functional consequences of changes in ICAM-1 expression were assessed by measuring adhesion of 111 In-labelled human neutrophils to EAhy926 endothelial and A549 epithelial monolayers treated with TNF alpha, in the presence or absence of ST638. 3. ST638 caused a concentration-dependent reduction in TNF alpha- (0.1-10 ng ml-1)-induced ICAM-1 on EAhy926 endothelial (at 4 h) and A549 epithelial monolayers (at 4 and 24 h). In contrast, ST638 caused a concentration-dependent increase in TNF alpha- (0.1-10 ng ml-1)-induced ICAM-1 on EAhy926 endothelial cells at 24 h. Similar effects were seen with AG 1288 or genistein. ST638 (100 microM) significantly (P < 0.01) inhibited ICAM-1 expression on HLMVEC endothelial cells induced by 0.01 ng ml-1 TNF alpha at 4 or 24 h or 0.1 ng ml-1 at 4 h, but increased ICAM-1 expression induced by 0.1 ng ml-1 TNF alpha at 24 h. ST638 did not significantly change the expression of PMA-stimulated ICAM-1 on either A549 epithelial, EAhy926 or HLMVEC endothelial cells. However, PMA-induced ICAM-1 expression was inhibited by Ro31-8220. Also, treatment of epithelial or endothelial monolayers with TNF alpha and ST638 altered adhesion of human neutrophils to A549 epithelial or EAhy926 endothelial cells in a manner that corresponded to the alteration in ICAM-1 expression. 4. These results show that tyrosine kinase inhibitors alter TNF alpha-induced ICAM-1 expression, but that the cell type, concentration of TNF alpha and time of exposure to this cytokine determine whether expression is decreased or increased by the inhibitor. An increased understanding of the signal transduction pathway(s) involved in TNF alpha-induced ICAM-1 expression on lung epithelial and vascular endothelial cells may be of potential therapeutic value in the treatment of inflammatory disease.

Abstract
Phagocytosis of Mycobacterium tuberculosis by human mononuclear phagocytes is mediated primarily by complement receptors (CRs) but the transmembrane signaling mechanisms that regulate phagocytosis of the bacterium are unknown. We have analyzed the activation of phospholipase D (PLD) during phagocytosis of the virulent Erdman and attenuated H37Ra strains of M. tuberculosis by human monocyte-derived macrophages (MDMs), radiolabeled with [3H]-lyso-phosphatidylcholine. Phagocytosis of either Erdman or H37Ra M. tuberculosis in the presence of autologous non-immune serum was associated with a 2.5-3-fold increase in phosphatidic acid (PA). Definitive evidence for activation of PLD by M. tuberculosis was provided by markedly increased generation of the PLD-specific product phosphatidylethanol (PEt) (9.9-fold increases in [3H]-PEt for both Erdman and H37Ra strains compared to control, P < 0.001, n = 12), in the presence of 0.5% ethanol. Phagocytosis of opsonized zymosan (OZ), which is also mediated by CRs, was similarly associated with activation of PLD (12.2-fold increase in PEt, P < 0.001, n = 12). The competitive PLD inhibitor 2,3-diphosphoglycerate (2,3-DPG) produced concentration-dependent inhibition of PLD activity stimulated by either M. tuberculosis (-78 +/- 8%) or OZ (-73 +/- 6%). Inhibition of PLD by 2,3-DPG was associated with concentration-dependent reductions in phagocytosis of M. tuberculosis (-74 +/- 4%) and OZ (-68 +/- 5%). Addition of purified PLD from Streptomyces chromofuscus to 2,3-DPG-treated macrophages restored phagocytosis of M. tuberculosis to control levels. Inhibition of M. tuberculosis- or OZ-stimulated PA generation by ethanol was associated with concentration-dependent reductions in phagocytosis of both particles. Incubation of MDMs with either Erdman or H37Ra M. tuberculosis, or OZ, resulted in rapid (onset 1 min) and sustained (60 min) increases in the tyrosine phosphorylation (Tyr-P) of multiple MDM proteins. Prominent Tyr-P was noted in proteins of 150, 95, 72, 56, and 42 kD. The protein tyrosine kinase (PTK) inhibitors genistein and herbimycin A reduced M. tuberculosis-stimulated PLD activity by 66-84%. Inhibition of PLD activity by genistein or herbimycin A was associated with inhibition of phagocytosis of M. tuberculosis and OZ. These data demonstrate that PLD is activated during macrophage phagocytosis of M. tuberculosis or OZ, that PTKs are involved in this stimulation of PLD, and that the extent of phagocytosis of these particles is tightly coupled to activation of PLD.
