摘要: Because many agonists utilize diacylglycerol (DAG) to initiate nuclear transcriptional activity via protein kinase C (PKC), we have investigated whether sphingosine might counter DAG. Sphingosine inhibited PKC in an isolated airway smooth muscle cell lysate and prevented the activation of mitogen-activated (MAPK) by platelet-derived growth factor, bradykinin, phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate intact cells. MAPK response all involves PKC. The stimulation [3H]palmitate-labeled cells with sphingosine, presence butan-1-ol (0.3%, vol/vol), induced increase [3H]phosphatidate (PtdOH) but was without effect on [3H]DAG. [3H]PtdOH synthesis inhibited, whereas [3H]DAG levels were increased DAG inhibitor R-59949, indicating that stimulates phospholipase C/DAG kinase. Recycling from PtdOH a sphingosine-dependent inhibition phosphohydrolase-2 activity. In conclusion, sphingosine-induced conversion may serve optimize MAPK. This account for antiproliferative action sphingosine.
