“…To more carefully assess the action of the direct formation of DG by PC-PLC, the other DG pathway by PLD was examined. Propranolol, commonly used as an inhibitor of PA phosphohydrolase [20], did not affect DG production in response to HGF. Furthermore, in the presence of ethanol, PLD catalyzes the transphosphatidylation of PC to yield a specific phospholipid, phosphatidylethanol (PEt) which is a useful marker for PLD activity [21].…”

“…The addition of unlabeled myristic acid (9/~M), either during the 60 min chase (postlabeling) or at the time of TPA addition, had no influence on the formation of [3H]PA or [3H]DG. The kinetics for the formation of [~H]myristoyl-DG indicate that the DG is derived from PA. To verify this point, cells were preincubated with propranolol, a phosphatidate phosphohydrolase inhibitor [14]. Preliminary experiments showed that 100/zM propranolol was sufficient to block TPAinduced DG formation.…”

“…Incubation of neutrophils with [3H]palmitic acid resulted in selective radioactive labelling of PtdCho, and 3H-labelled PtdEtOH accumulated in cells incubated with either fMLF or TPA in the presence of ethanol. Conversely, fatty acids did not stimulate the accumulation of 3H-labelled PtdEtOH, indicating that the respiratory burst induced by these agents is independent of the hydrolysis of PtdCho by phospholipase D. Consequently, the inhibition of the fattyacid-induced respiratory burst by ethanol and propranolol, agents known to interfere with the cascade initiated by phospholipase D in a number of systems, including neutrophils (Dawson, 1967;Koul and Hauser, 1987;Billah et al, 1989b;Mullmann et al, 1990;Rossi et al, 1990), was unexpected. It is of course possible that these compounds influence the respiratory burst by mechanisms unrelated to phospholipase D. Alternatively, neutrophils may contain a fatty-acid-activated phospholipase D with specificity towards phospholipids other than PtdCho, or the fatty acids may interact with the cell membrane and alter the presentation of phospholipid species to phospholipase D. There is evidence that neutrophils have the capacity to hydrolyse phospholipids other than PtdCho via phospholipase D, although the situation is far from clear.…”
