Impaired activation of phospholipase D in polycythaemia vera-implications for the pathogenesis of the disease?
    Leukemia & lymphoma, 1995, Volume: 19, Issue:1-2

    A series of studies have demonstrated a stimulus-specific defect in PMN oxidative metabolism after stimulation with surface receptor dependent stimuli such as fMLP, leukotriene B4 and platelet activating factor (PAF), whereas the response to phorbol myristate acetate was normal. Having discovered this defect, studies of the stimulus response coupling for oxidative responses were performed showing a normal interaction of fMLP with it's receptor, as well as an intact activation of phospholipase C, as measured by the generation of 1,4,5-inositoltrisphosphate, and the subsequent rise of intracellular calcium. In contrast, the formation of diacylglycerol and phosphatidylethanol was decreased in PV PMN, denoting an impaired activation of phospholipase D (PLD). It was shown by flow cytometry analyses that the hampered oxidative response was present both in single PMN and monocytes. Moreover, platelets from PV patients, whose PMN exhibit a lower oxidative response to PAF, also have a diminished aggregatory response to PAF. Thus three different cell lineages in PV have been revealed to respond abnormally to surface receptor dependent stimuli, indicating that the proposed impairment of PLD might be relevant for changes in the malignant stem cell clone. Since phosphatidic acid, produced as a result of PLD activation, may be implicated in the regulation of several oncogenes, perturbations of the PLD system could theoretically be important for the development of PV.

Superoxide anion production and phospholipase D-mediated generation of diacylglycerol are subnormal after N-formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine stimulation of polymorphonuclear granulocytes in polycythemia vera.
    The Journal of laboratory and clinical medicine, 1993, Volume: 121, Issue:2

    We have assessed aspects of the stimulus response coupling for generation of superoxide anions (O2-) in polymorphonuclear granulocytes (PMNs) from patients with polycythemia vera (PV). Those cells exhibited less than half of the O2- secretion that PMNs from healthy controls did, when that response was initiated by N-formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine (fMLP), 0.35 +/- 0.38 nmol O2-/10(6) PMNs/min and 0.83 +/- 0.45 nmol O2-/10(6) PMNs/min, respectively (p < 0.02). In contrast, when induced by phorbol myristate acetate (PMA), O2- production in PV PMNs was normal (6.9 +/- 1.1 nmol O2-/10(6) PMNs/min vs 6.9 +/- 0.6 nmol O2-/10(6) PMNs/min for control cells). In an attempt to dissect this stimulus-specific dichotomy of the oxidative responsiveness of PV PMNs, we analyzed the number of and ligand affinity for fMLP surface receptors, fMLP-induced membrane potential changes, phospholipase C-dependent production of inositol-1,4,5-trisphosphate, and the subsequent rise of cytosolic calcium concentrations. All these variables and responses were normal in PV PMNs. However, on fMLP stimulation of PV PMNs, we observed a significantly lower diacylglycerol (DAG) generation than in control cells (1.4% +/- 0.9% and 2.2% +/- 1.2% DAG of total phospholipid, respectively; p < 0.05). Furthermore, the activation of phospholipase D, measured as the formation of phosphatidylethanol (PET) in the presence of 0.5% ethanol, was impaired in PV PMNs with a similar stimulus-specific dichotomy as observed for O2- generation. Thus PET generation was significantly lower in PV cells after fMLP stimulation in relation to control cells (1.7% +/- 0.8% and 2.7% +/- 0.8% PET of total phospholipid, respectively; p < 0.01), whereas PET formation after PMA stimulation did not differ. We suggest that the impairment of phospholipase D-mediated metabolism of phosphatidylcholine in response to fMLP stimulation of polycythemia vera granulocytes may be of significance for the reduced superoxide anion formation induced by fMLP in those cells.
