The present study showed that platelet-activating factor (1-O-hexadecyl-2-acetyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine, PAF), but not lysoPAF (1-O-hexadecyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine) rapidly (within 15 sec) stimulated the incorporation of both [1-14C]arachidonate and [1-14C]docosahexaenoate into phosphatidylinositol (PI) and phosphatidylcholine (PC) in human neutrophils. Concomitantly, it inhibited
the formation of labeled phosphatidic acid from both fatty acids. The magnitude of stimulation (percentage of control) was
greater in PI than in PC for the incorporation of arachidonate and vice versa for the incorporation of docosahexaenoate. It
reached a maximum at 10−7 M and started to decline at 10−6 M. Extracellular Ca2+ was not essential for the action of PAF on phospholipid acylation. The distribution of labeled arachidonate in the molecular
species of PC was not altered by PAF after 1 min incubation, suggesting that the increased formation of arachidonyl-PC during
the early stage of neutrophil-PAF interaction was not originated from the added PAF. No measurable changes in the mass of
each phospholipid were detected in neutrophils challenged by PAF from 15 sec to 2 min. The data suggest that the increased
incorporated of extracellular fatty acids into PI and PC elicited by PAF may be secondary to increased deacylation of these
phospholipids, and the magnitude of stimulation reflects the specificity of acyltransferase catalyzing the acylation of lysoPI
and lysoPC by fatty acyl-CoA. 相似文献

The present study was undertaken to test the hypothesis that leukotriene B4 (LTB4) may promote extracellular fatty acid incorporation into neutrophil choline glycerophospholipids (PC) to replenish phospholipids
after deacylation. Incubation of human neutrophils with LTB4 (1.5 to 150 nM) for 1 for 5 min resulted in increased fatty acid incorporation into phosphatidylinositol (PI), diacyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (diacyl-GPC) and alkylacyl-GPC. The magnitude of stimulation (percentage of control) of fatty acid
incorporation appears to reflect increased activity of the acyltransferases catalyzing acylation of the respective lysophospholipids.
LTB4 stimulation of arachidonic acid incorporation into PI was greater than into PC, whereas the stimulation of palmitic acid
but not by arachidonic acid. LTB4 and 1-O-alkyl-2-N-methylcarbamyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (cPAF) exhibited a similar stimulatory effect on fatty acid incorporation into the PC fraction.
Phosphate analysis could not detect changes in the mass of PI or of PC in neutrophils exposed to LTB4 or cPAF. The results suggest that increased fatty acid incorporation into phospholipids in LTB4-activated neutrophils reflects activation of phospholipase A2 and acyltransferases as well as ofde novo phospholipid synthesis. 相似文献

Platelet-activating factor acetylhydrolase activity in human tissues and blood cells 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6

Human tissues, blood cells, and plasma have enzymes that catalyze the hydrolysis of PAF (1-O-alkyl-2-acetyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine). The activities are not due to phospholipases A2 that hydrolyze long chain acyl groups at thesn-2 position of glycerophospholipids, since they are calcium-independent and are specific for hydrolysis of short chain acyl
groups. We examined the biochemical properties of these PAF acetylhydrolase activities (EC 3.1.1.47) in homogenates of human
liver and spleen, in white blood cells (neutrophils and monocytes), and in erythrocytes. The data suggest that the plasma
and intracellular PAF acetylhydrolase activities are likely due to different proteins. Second, the intracellular PAF acetylhydrolase
activities in liver and spleen share several biochemical features that differentiate them from the activities in blood cells.
Third, the activities in monocytes and neutrophils have properties that differentiate them from the activity present in human
erythrocytes. Finally, the erythrocyte activity has unique properties that place it in a separate category of short chain
acylhydrolases. In conclusion, there is a family of distinct enzymes that can be identified as PAF acetylhydrolases based
on their calcium-independence and specificity for a short residue at thesn02 position of phospholipids.

Stimulation of production of reactive oxygen intermediates (ROI) was examined in human peripheral blood monocytes by luminol-dependent
chemiluminescence. The dose-response cureve characterizing the dependence of ROI production on the concentration of platelet-activating
factor (PAF) showed that stimulation occurred within a concentration range of 2×10−9M to 5×10−6M. Transformation of the dose-response curve to an Eadie-Hofstee plot indicated that the process is characterized by two Km values. The Km value corresponding to the high-affinity branch of the curve is 1.3±0.14 nM. In the same cells, the dissociation constant
for the [3H]PAF/receptor complex was determined. The Kd value was 0.8±0.1 nM, which agreed quite well with the high-affinity Km value obtained in the Eadie-Hofstee plot. The data indicate that stimulation of ROI generation is mediated through PAF binding
at specific receptor sites at nanomolar PAF concentrations. Along with the specific receptor-mediated ROI generation, a nonspecific
effect of PAF at a high concentration was demonstrated.

Since the elucidation of its chemical structure two decades ago, platelet-activating factor (PAF) has emerged as an important
mediator of various cardiovascular stress situations. Most notably, PAF was implicated as a key factor in the septic shock
syndrome, based on the similarities between endotoxin and PAF biological effects, the elevation of circulating and tissue
levels of PAF during endotoxemia, and the protective effect of PAF antagonists in the septic state. In addition, accumulating
data suggest the involvement of PAF in the pathophysiological processes associated with ischemia, hemorrhage and trauma, where
PAF exerts its effects directly on cells and blood elements or indirectly through interactions with other mediators such as
cytokines and prostaglandins. Nevertheless, the relative contribution of PAF to the pathophysiological processes in endotoxemia
is still unknown and should await further investigations. The primary aims of this chapter are: to delineate the effects of
PAF on the cardiovascular system, to summarize the data which suggest the involvement of PAF in stress situations of the cardiovascular
system, and to identify areas where future experimental efforts should be focused.

Steel factor (SLF), the ligand for the c-kit protooncogene tyrosine kinase receptor, synergizes with several hematopoietic
growth factors to produce greatly enhanced proliferation of normal human hematopoietic progenitor cells as well as that of
the human growth factor-dependent myeloid cell line, M07e. The mechanisms of this phenomenon remain unknown. In an attempt
to understand the cellular processes relevant to this phenomenon, we examined the effects of SLF and granulocyte-macrophage
colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) on induced lipid metabolism in M07e cells. We find that both GM-CSF and SLF induced increased
phosphatidylcholine (PC) turnover rates (biosynthesis and degradation) as measured by increased [3H]-choline labelling, with SLF being more potent stimulation. The labelling of aqueous intermediates of PC metabolism was
also increased by cytokine stimulation, most notably phosphocholine. Simultaneous stimulation with GM-CSF plus SLF resulted
in a true synergistic induction of PC, lysoPC, and phosphocholine labelling. GM-CSF and SLF each induced asymmetric labelling
of various phospholipid classes as measured by incorporation of different [3H]-fatty acids. [3H]-myristic acid labelling of phosphatidylserine was most prominently induced (approximately 12-fold). Cytosolic choline kinase
activity was also upregulated more than twofold over control by SLF, which might contribute to the increased phosphocholine
labelling. These effects may have relevance to the intracellular mechanisms of the synergistic proliferative stimulation of
SLF plus GM-CSF on M07e cells. 相似文献

Platelet-activating factor may mediate dexamethasone-induced gastric damage in the rat 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The possible role of platelet-activating factor (PAF) in dexamethasone-induced gastric mucosal damage was studied in rats.
PAF was measured by a platelet aggregation assay. The identity of the PAF-like product recovered from gastric tissues was
ascertained by thin-layer chromatography and high-pressure liquid chromatography. Low levels of PAF were detected in the normal
rat stomach, while in dexamethasone-treated animals PAF levels were significantly higher. Pretreatment of the animals with
BN 52021, a specific PAF receptor antagonist, significantly attenuated dexamethasone-induced mucosal injury. These findings
suggest that PAF may be a mediator of mucosal damage induced by glucocorticoids.

The bacterial chemotactic peptide, formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine (fMLP), induces the generation of platelet-activating
factor (PAF), the mobilization of arachidonic acid and generation of superoxide anion (O2
−) in rabbit polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNs). The PAF receptor antagonists, WEB 2086 (10–100 μM) and CV 6209 (1–10 μM),
reduced the mobilization of arachidonic acid and the O2
− generation in response to fMLP but not that in response to A23187. Pretreatment of PMNs with the phospholipase A2 inhibitor, chloroquine, or the serine protease inhibitor, tosyl-phenylalanine chloromethyl ketone, reduced the fMLP-stimulated
generation of PAF and also reduced the generation of O2
−. The respiratory burst induced by a submaximal concentration of phorbol myristate acetate was not affected by these compounds.
These data are consistent with the suggestion that endogenous PAF may contribute to the signal transduction cascade initiated
by fMLP.

It recently has been recognized that platelet-activating factor (PAF) may be a mediator of asthma exacerbation. We had the
opportunity to analyze bronchoalveolar lavage fluids from an asthmatic infant, which were characterized by neutrophil infiltration.
The patient's lungs were washed on three occasions with saline during asthmatic attacks. PAF was found in each case on the
basis of its ability to cause the immediate aggregation of washed rabbit platelets. The PAF detected was equivalent to 1–1.4
pmol of 1-O-hexadecyl-2-acetyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine, three quarters of which were recovered in cell-associated form. By contrast, we did not detect
PAF in bronchoalveolar exudates from patients with larungeal stenosis or with respiratory distress syndrome. LysoPAF, the
direct precursor as well as initial metabolite of PAF, was also analyzed after being converted to PAF by acetylation. There
was a wide variation in the amount of lysoPAF present in individual patients, suggesting that lysoPAF levels cannot be taken
as an indicator for the presence of PAF.

Compartmental study of rat renal phospholipid metabolism 总被引:2,自引:1,他引:1
Norma Sterin-Speziale Veronica L. Kahane Clara Patricia Setton Maria del Carmen Fernandez Emir H. Speziale 《Lipids》1992,27(1):10-14
Phospholipid content and metabolism were studied in rat renal papillary, medullary and cortical slices. The highest concentration
of phospholipids was found in cortex and the lowest in papilla samples (ratio cortex/medulla, 1.3; cortex/papilla, 3.7). The
profile of the various phospholipids was different depending on the zone. The most important difference was the relative concentrations
of sphingomyelin (CerPCho) and phosphatidylinositol (PtdIns) with ratios for PtdIns/CerPCho of 5.0, 3.3 and 2.5 in papilla, medulla, and cortex, respectively. In the three zones, PtdIns showed the highest specific
activity for [2-14C]glycerol and [1-14C]arachidonic acid incorporation. By contrast, a higher amount of [1-14C]palmitic acid was incorporated into phosphatidylcholine than into any other phospholipid. The various radioactive precursors
were only poorly incorporated into phosphatidylethanolamine. No radioactivity was associated with phosphatidylserine. The
papilla possesses the most active phospholipid metabolism of all the pathways studied. 相似文献

The purpose of the present study was to determine whether increased levels of platelet-activating factor (PAF) type activity
can be detected in plasma from patients with septicemia and other diseases. A level of PAF below 0.5 ng/mL of plasma was considered
normal. We found that plasma from a patient with adverse anaphylactoidic reaction to intravenous analgetics contained 2.1
ng PAF/mL. In seven patients with septicemia, including urosepsis, endocarditis and peritonitis, and with positive blood culture,
increased plasma PAF levels (1–20 ng PAF/mL) were observed. Other patients with clinical indications of septicemia had negative
blood cultures and/or increased levels of C-reactive protein (CRP). Yet, in the plasma from these patients, no increased PAF
levels were detected under the assay conditions used. Two patients with allergic asthma, requiring treatment with steroids,
had no measurable plasma PAF. In the plasma from a patient with idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) only an “endogenous”
inhibitor of PAF induced platelet aggregation was initially observed. In spite of this, the patient responded to treatment
with the PAF antagonist WEB 2086 with a dramatic increase in platelet count (Lohmannet al., Lancet ii, 1147, 1988). Thereafter, also increased PAF levels (3.3 ng PAF/mL) were detected in plasma, although some “endogenous” inhibitor
of PAF was still present. In conclusion, increased PAF levels in plasma from patients support a role of PAF in certain human
disease states, such as in anaphylactoid reaction, sepsis and septic shock. The type, relevance and specificity of endogenous
inhibitors of PAF deserve further study.

A human monocytic cell line (THP-1) was used to study the effects of PAF (platelet-activating factor) on the expression of
IL-1 beta mRNA. THP-1 cells were incubated with 10 pM PAF in the presence or absence of 0.1 μg/mL endotoxin for 4 hr, after
which cytoplasmic RNA was extracted and subjected to Northern hybridizations. PAF, alone and in combination with endotoxin,
caused an increase in mRNA levels for IL-1 beta. The magnitude of the effects of PAF on IL-1 beta mRNA levels matched closely
the effects seen at the level of protein synthesis, suggesting that the effects of PAF on IL-1 beta release may result largely
from its effects on IL-1 beta mRNA levels. 相似文献

Challenge of human neutrophils prelabeled with [3H]arachidonate and [14C] palmitate or [14C]-stearate with opsonized zymosan or the Ca2+ ionophores A23187 or Ionomycin caused the release of [3H], but not [14C], fatty acid. With the ionophores, but not zymosan, considerable conversion of the [3H] arachidonate to hydroxyeicosatetraenoates occurred. Although various isomers were recovered, the 5-hydroxyeicosatetraenoate
appeared to be the major product. In these experiments, no [14C] products were detected such as lysophospholipid, diglyceride or monoglyceride. Although no definitive statement can be
made about the mechanism of release of arachidonate, our data are most easily interpreted as the result of the action of a
phospholipase A2. 相似文献

Platelet-activating factor (PAF) and leukotriene B4 are potent lipid mediators of endothelium-granulocyte interaction which results in granulocyte-dependent increased microvascular
permeability. The specific mechanism by which PAF induces granulocyte-mediated endothelial injury has not been fully investigated.
Digital imaging photonic intensified microscopy has revealed that PAF effectively induces granulocyte-mediated oxidative stress
on microvascular beds. The method has made it possible to visualize luminol-dependent photonic burst released from PAF-treated
microvascular beds in the rat mesentery. The photonic activities clearly corresponded to the localization of sticking granulocytes
in post-capillary venules. By contrast, no significant chemilumigenic response could be detected in the leukotriene B4-induced activation of endothelium-granulocyte interactionin vivo. The present findings suggest that oxygen radicals are not prerequisites for granulocyte adhesion in the microcirculation
and provide evidence for a dissociation ofin vivo granulocyte function between leukotactic and oxidative activation in leukotriene B4-induced microvascular changes.

The effect of platelet-activating factor (PAF) on the development of isometric tension by saponin-skinned coronary artery
was studied. PAF caused two types of contractions of coronary smooth muscle cells (SMC):(i) rapid, transient (phasic) contractions
of SMC were induced by inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate dependent Ca2+ release from sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR); (ii) slow sustained (tonic) contractions were induced by increase in Ca2+-ensitivity of the contractile apparatus of SMC by protein kinase C activation. The present results support the hypothesis
that, in SMC of coronary artery, PAF receptors are located not only on the plasma membrane, but also on the SR membranes.

Altered phospholipid metabolism in sodium butyrate-induced differentiation of C6 glioma cells 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
We examined the changes in phospholipid metabolisms in sodium butyrate-treated C6 glioma cells. Treatment of 2.5 mM sodium
butyrate for 24 h induced an increase in the activity of glutamine synthetase, suggesting that these cells were under differentiation.
Similar treatment was associated with (i) increased arachidonic acid incorporation into phosphatidylcholine, and (ii) decreased
arachidonic acid incorporation into phosphatidylinositol and (iii) phosphatidylethanolamine. These effects were subsequently
investigated by examining the acylation process, de novo biosynthesis, and the agonist-stimulated phosphoinositides hydrolysis in these cells. Our results indicated that sodium butyrate
stimulated the acylation of arachidonic acid into lysophosphatidylcholine, lysophosphatidylethanolamine, and lysophosphatidylinositol.
The glycerol incorporation into these lipids was not affected, but the inositol incorporation into these lipids was not affected,
but the inositol incorporation into total chloroform extracts and Pl and phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate was decreased in
the sodium butyrate-treated cells. Moreover, the accumulation of the rapid histamine-stimulated phosphoinositide metabolites,
i.e., inositol monophosphate, inositol diphosphate, and inositol triphosphate (IP3) was decreased in these cells. To elucidate whether the decreased inositol phosphates were due to a decrease in the phosphoinositides
hydrolysis, we measured the transient IP3 production directly by a receptor-binding assay. Our results indicated that histamine-stimulated transient IP3 formations were decreased. Taken together, these results indicated that multiple changes by multiple mechanisms of phospholipid
metabolisms were found in sodium butyrate-treated C6 glioma cells. The decreased IP3 formation and its subsequent action, i.e., Ca2+ mobilization, may play an early but pivotal role by which sodium butyrate induces C6 glioma cell differentiation. 相似文献

Palmitoyl CoA-glycerol-3-phosphate acyltransferase, phosphatidate phosphohydrolase, and phospholipase A were assayed in subcellular
fractions of rat lung, including lamellar bodies, the putative site of storage and secretion of lung surfactant. The specific
activity of each of these enzymes in lamellar bodies was relatively low and could be entirely accounted for by a small contamination
of the lamellar bodies fraction by microsomes, as quantitated by the presence of the microsomal marker reduced triphosphopyridine
nucleotide cytochromec reductase. These data indicate that lamellar bodies are not the site of synthesis of the lipid component of pulmonary surfactant
by pathways involving these enzymes. 相似文献
