title: Oleylamine and stearylamine increase phosphatidylserine synthesis in T cells by synergy with calcium ions.
abstract: Oleylamine and stearylamine, two cationic amphiphilic drugs, strongly increase phosphatidylserine synthesis in human T cells. The two compounds had little effect on either phosphatidylcholine or phosphatidylethanolamine synthesis. A decrease in the formation of phosphatidylethanolamine through decarboxylation of phosphatidylserine was observed, but this effect is only marginally involved in increased phosphatidylserine synthesis. The high incorporation of [3H]-serine into phosphatidylserine is a protein kinase C independent process and is due to a synergy of either oleyamine or stearylamine with calcium ions.
