title: Activation of phospholipase D activity in transforming growth factor-beta-induced cell growth inhibition.
abstract: Cells regulate phospholipase D (PLD) activity in response to numerous extracellular signals. Here, we investigated the involvement of PLD activity in transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta1)-mediated growth inhibition of epithelial cells. TGF-beta1 inhibits the growth of MDCK, Mv1Lu, and A-549 cells. In the presence of 0.4% butanol, TGF-beta1 induces an increase in the formation of phosphatidylbutanol, a unique product catalyzed by PLD. TGF-beta1 also induces an increase in phosphatidic acid (PA) level in A-549 and MDCK cells. TGF-beta1 induces an increase in the levels of DAG labeled with [3H]-myristic acid in A-549 and MDCK cells but not in Mv1Lu cells. No increase of DAG was observed in cells prelabeled with [3H]-arachidonic acid. The data presented suggest that PLD activation is involved in the TGF-beta1-induced cell growth inhibition.
