Over-expression of phospholipase D (PLD) 1 or PLD2 down-regulated CKII activity in NIH3T3 cells. The same results were found with catalytically inactive mutants of PLD isozymes, indicating that the catalytic activity of PLD is not required for PLD-mediated CKII inhibition. Consistent with this, 1-butanol did not alter CKII activity. The reduction in CKII activity in PLD-over-expressing NIH3T3 cells was due to reduced protein level, but not mRNA level, of the $CKII{\beta}$ subunit. This PLD-induced $CKII{\beta}$ degradation was mediated by ubiquitin-proteasome machinery, but MAP kinase and mTOR were not involved in $CKII{\beta}$ degradation. PLD isozymes interacted with the $CKII{\beta}$ subunit. Immunocytochemical staining revealed that PLD and $CKII{\beta}$ colocalize in the cytoplasm of NIH3T3 cells, especially in the perinuclear region. PLD binding to $CKII{\beta}$ inhibited $CKII{\beta}$ autophosphorylation, which is known to be important for $CKII{\beta}$ stability. In summary, the current data indicate that PLD isozymes can down-regulate CKII activity through the acceleration of $CKII{\beta}$ degradation by ubiquitin-proteasome machinery.

The activation of phospholipase D (PLD) catalyzes hydrolysis of phosphatidylcholine (PC) to phosphatidic acid (PA) and choline in plants as well as animals. To determine the presence of PLD in oat cells, we prepared inside-out plasma membrane and cytosolic fractions from oat tissues. PLD activities in both cytosol and plasma membrane were detected by ion chromatography method. The activity of PLD in plasma membrane was dependent upon $Ca^{2+}$ concentration and was heat stable. To investigate whether G-protein couples to PLD, the effects of $GTP{\gamma}S$ and $GDP{\beta}S$ on the PLD activity were measured. PLD activity was dramatically increased 300~400% in the presence of 50 ${\mu}M$ $GTP{\gamma}S$ but not in the presence of 50 ${\mu}M$ $GDP{\beta}S$. These results indicate that G-protein may be involved in regulation of PLD activity. To identify whether PLD is regulated by red light receptor, phytochrome, we irradiated red, far-red, or red/far-red/red light on oat protoplasts. PLD activity has increased 5-fold and 3-fold by treatment with red light and red/far-red/red light, respectively. In contrast, irradiation with far-red light had little or no effect on PLD activity. These results suggest that phytochrome regulates PLD activity through activation of G-protein in oat cells.

To examine the localization pattern of phospholipase D2 (PLD2) in the pancreatic islet (the islet of Langerhans) depending on species, we conducted a morphological experiment in the rat and guinea pig. Since individual islets display a typical topography with a central core of B cell mass and a peripheral boundary of A, D, and PP cells, double immunofluorescent staining with a panel of antibodies was performed to identify PLD2-immunoreactive cells in the islets PLD2 immunoreactivity was mainly present in A and PP cells of the rat pancreatic islets. And yet, in the guinea pig, PLD2 immunoreactivity was exclusively localized in A cells, and not in PP cells. These findings suggest a possibility that PLD2 is mainly located in A cells of rodent pancreatic islets, and that the existence of PLD2 in PP cells is not universal in all species. Based on these results, it is suggested that PLD2 may play a significant role in the function of A and/or PP cells via a PLD-mediated signaling pathway.

We report the existence of new type of phosphatidylcholine-hydrolyzing phospholipase D (PLD), which has been characterized and partially purified in the scuticociliate, Uronema marinum. The enzyme from partial purification showed that it was existed in membrane fraction and was a neutral PLD, which catalyzed both transphosphatidylation and hydrolysis reaction. The activity of partially purified membrane-bound PLD was also found to be optimal at pH 7.0-7.5 for 2 hours at 37℃ and depended strictly on the presence of Ca2+ (2.5 mM) and Mg2+ (1.6 mM). Immunoblot analysis indicated that the enzyme was distinct from hPLD1 (human PLD1) and hPLD2 (human PLD2) because it was not recognized by a polyclonal antibody raised to the 12 terminal amino acid of these enzymes. We also found that the membrane-bound PLD is a PIP2-dependent PLD and that GTP-binding proteins are not implicated in the regulation of this enzyme: This enzyme activity is markedly stimulated by phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2) but not by the small G-protein Arf and GTPrS. In addition, this enzyme was capable of hydrolyzing phosphatidylcholine (PC) but not phosphatidylethanolamine (PE), implying that PC was a preferred substrate.

목적 : Phospholipase D (PLD)는 phosphatidylcholine을 phosphatidic acid (PA)와 choline으로 가수분해 시키는 효소이다. 최근 이 효소는 다른 phospholipase들과 유사하게 세포 신호전달과정에 관여하는 것으로 알려져 많은 관심의 대상이 되고 있으며, 아울러 발암과정에 관여하리라는 추측을 하게 하고 있다. 이 실험에서는 쥐를 방사선 조사하여 각 조직에서 올레산-PLO에 미치는 영향을 관찰하였다. 방법 : PLD assay를 위한 반응 혼합물에는 $0.1\;\muCi$의 $1,2-di[1^{14}C]palmitoyl$ phosphatidylcholine, 0.5mM phosphatidylcholine, 5mM sodium oleate, $0.2\%$ taurodeoxycholate, 50mM HEPES buffer(pH 6.5), 10mM $CaCl_2$와 25mM KF 를 함께 넣어주었다. 생성된 PA는 TLC로 분리하여 그 방사능을 측정하였다. 사용된 동물은 암컷 Wistar 쥐로서 코발트 60 원격치료 기기를 이용, 조사범위를 $10cm\times10cm$로하여 분당 선량율 2.7Gy로 방사선 조사선랸 l0Gy와 25Gy를 조사 하였다. 결과 : PLD 활성은 폐조직에서 가장 높았으며 신장, 근육, 리, 비장, 골수, 흥선. 간의 순으로 나타났다. 방사선 조사결과 PLD 활성에 변동을 보인 조직은 흥선, 비장, 폐와 골수이며, 특히 흉선과 비장은 PLD의 할성이 각각 2배 이상 증가한 것으로 관찰되었다. 이와는 반대고 골수의 PLD는 $30\%$ 이상 감소한 것으로 나타났다. 한편 PLD 활성값이 가장 낮은 판은 방사선 영향을 거의 받지 않는 것처럼 보였다. 결론 : 동물전신에 방사선 조사시 PLD가 가장 민감한 영향을 받는 조직은 림프양 기관과 조혈 세포인 것으로 보여 PLD가 이들 조직의 생리기능과 밀접한 관계가 있음을 암시해 주고있다. 더 나아가 방사선 긴장 (radiation stress)이 이들 조직의 세포증식내지 괴사현상연구에 중요한 수단을 제공해 줄 수 있을 것이다.

Little is known about the effect of epigallocatechin-3 gallate (ESCG), a major constituent of green tea, on the expression of cyclooxygenase (COX)-2. Here, we studied the role of phospholipase D (PLD) isozymes in EGCG-induced COX-2 expression. Stimulation of human astrocytoma cells (U87) with EGCG induced formation of phosphatidylbutanol, a specific product of PLD activity, and synthesis of COX-2protein and its product, prostaglandin $E_2$ ($PGE_2$). Pretreatment of cells with 1-butanol, but not 3-butanol, suppressed EGCG-induced COX-2 expression and $PGE_2$ synthesis. Furthermore, evidence that PLD was involved in EGCG-induced COX-2 expression w3s provided by the observations that COX-2 expression was stimulated by over-expression of PLD1 or PLD2 isozymes and treatment with phosphatidic acid(PA), and that prevention of PA dephosphorylation by 1-propranolol significantly potentiated COX-2expression Induced by EGCG. EGCG induced activation of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (p38MAPK), and specific Inhibition of p38 MAPK dramatically abolished EGCG-Induced PLD activation, COX-2 expression, and $PGE_2$ formation. Moreover, protein kinase C (PKC) inhibition suppressed EGCG-induced p38 MAPK activation, COX-2 expression, and $PGE_2$ accumulation. The same pathways as those obtained in the astrocytoma cells were active in primary rat astrocytes, suggesting the relevance of the findings. Collectively, our results demonstrate for the first time that PLD isozymes mediate EGCG-induced COX-2 expression through PKC and p38 in immortalized astroglial line and normal astrocyte cells.

To define the effect of silica on the stimulator of signaling pathway, we studied the phospholipase D (PLD) activity in the Rat2 fibroblasts. Silica stimulated the accumulation of labeled $[^3H]$ phosphatidylethanol$([^3H]\;PEt)$ in a time- and concentration-dependent manner. This Silicainduced PLD activity was partially attenuated by the pretreatment with U73122 (phospholipase C inhibitor), genistein (protein tyrosine kinase inhibitor), PD 98056 (MEK inhibitor) and mepacrine (phospholipase $A_2$ inhibitor). But, sphingosine (protein kinase C inhibitor) and DPI (NADPH reductase inhibitor) had not effect the PLD activity. Silica also increased the PLD activity about four fold, which imply that the PLD activity is more influenced by the mobilization of PLD than other signaling mediators. The PLD activity also partially inhibited calcium chelator EGTA or/and BAPTA/AM compared to silica. Finally, we concluded that a silica-stimulated phospholipase D activity is present in the Rat2 fibroblasts and is modulated by combination of various signaling mediators.

The role of phospholipase D (PLD) in cancer development and management has been a major area of interest for researchers. The purpose of this mini-review is to explore PLD and its distinct role during chemotherapy including anti-apoptotic function. PLD is an enzyme that belongs to the phospholipase super family and is found in a broad range of organisms such as viruses, yeast, bacteria, animals, and plants. The function and activity of PLD are widely dependent on and regulated by neurotransmitters, hormones, small monomeric GTPases, and lipids. A growing body of research has shown that PLD activity is significantly increased in cancer tissues and cells, indicating that it plays a critical role in signal transduction, cell proliferation, and anti-apoptotic processes. In addition, recent studies show that PLD is a downstream transcriptional target of proteins that contribute to inflammation and carcinogenesis such as Sp1, $NF{\kappa}B$, TCF4, ATF-2, NFATc2, and EWS-Fli. Thus, compounds that inhibit expression or activity of PLD in cells can be potentially useful in reducing inflammation and sensitizing resistant cancers during chemotherapy.

Phospholiapse D (PLD), and phosphatidic acid generated by it, have been implicated in receptor-mediated intracellular signaling. Carbachol (CCh) is known to activate PLD1, and protein kinase C (PKC) is known to mediate in this signaling pathway In recent reports (Kim et al., 1999b; Kim et al., 2000), we published our observations of the direct phosphorylation of PLD1 by PKC and we described the phosphorylation-dependent regulation of PLD1 activity. In this study, we investigated the phasphorylation and compartmentalization of PLD1 in terms of CCh signaling in M3 muscarinic receptor (M3R)-expressing COS-7 cells. CCh treatment of COS-7 cells transiently coexpressing PLD1 and M3R stimulated PLD1 activity and induced direct phosphorylation of PLD1 by PKC. The CCh-induced activation and phosphorylation of PLD1 was completely blocked upon pretreatment of the cells with PKC-specific inhibitors. We looked at the localization of the PLD1 phosphorylation by PKC and found that PLD1 was mainly located in the caveolin-enriched membrane (CEM) fraction. Based on these results, we conclude that CCh induces the activation and phosphorylation of PLD1 via PKC and that the phosphorylation of PLD1 occurs in caveolae.
