Diacylglycerol production in Jurkat T-cells: differences between CD3, CD2 and PHA activation pathways.
Diacylglycerol (DAG) production induced after stimulation with either CD3 mAb, a pair of CD2 mAbs or phytohaemagglutinin has been monitored in Jurkat T-cells prelabelled to isotopic equilibrium with seven [3H]- or [14C] fatty acids. It was found that CD3 induced a high production of arachidonic acid-labelled DAG and a modest production of oleic acid-DAG. The reverse was observed when using CD2 as activator. Phytohaemagglutinin induced a high production of these two DAG subspecies and in addition induced the production of linolenic acid-labelled DAG. Whatever the activator used no changes were observed in DAG production when cellular phospholipids were prelabelled with either myristic, palmitic, stearic or linoleic acids. All together our results strongly suggest that the three activation pathways previously described in T-lymphocytes might differ either at the level of the transduction mechanism or the phospholipid pools solicited during the activation process.
