title: Accessory cells induce a polyphosphatidylinositol response when cultured with mitogen-activated T lymphocytes.
abstract: Monocytes (MO) influenced phosphoinositide metabolism when human T lymphocytes, isolated from peripheral blood, were activated by polyclonal mitogens. In the 3 hr immediately following mitogenic challenge, the synthesis of phosphatidylinositol (PI) was augmented and the synthesis of PI-4-phosphate (PIP) and PI-4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2) was induced in cultures of T lymphocytes and MO. In addition, MO induced a rapid and transient degradation of PIP and PIP2 in T cells prelabeled with [32P]PL and subsequently activated by mitogen. Induction of a PIP/PIP2 response correlated well with induction of DNA replication by MO when T cells were activated by phytohemagglutinin or by neuraminidase plus galactose oxidase. MO did not influence polyphosphoinositide metabolism when T cells were stimulated by the nonmitogenic lectin wheat germ agglutinin. Interleukin 1 could not substitute for monocytes in inducing a polyphosphoinositide response. By causing a rapid and transient release of the second messengers diacylglycerol and inositol phosphates and by subsequently increasing their cellular precursors, MO may induce the interleukin 2 responsive state in T lymphocytes.
