title: Modifications in phospholipase D activity and isoform expression occur upon maturation and differentiation in vivo and in vitro in human myeloid cells.
abstract: Activation of phospholipase D (PLD) occurs in response to various stimuli and results from the activity of two isozymes, hPLD1 and hPLD2. PLD activity appears to be involved in several myeloid cell processes during their development and activation, including proliferation of myeloblasts in the bone marrow and secretion, phagocytosis and NADPH oxidase activation, essential functions of differentiated neutrophils. The present work studies PLD characteristics, activity and both isozyme expression during maturation and differentiation of myeloid cells by using three different systems: leukemic myeloblasts at different stages of maturation, terminally differentiated neutrophils ex vivo and four human myeloid cell lines, NB4, HL-60, PLB 985 and U937, induced to differentiate with alltrans retinoic acid (ATRA), a cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) analogue or both agents together. HL-60, a bipotential cell line has also been differentiated along the granulocytic pathway with DMSO and the monocytic pathway with 1,25-dihydroxy vitamin D3. In all these systems, PLD activity increases with maturation and differentiation whatever the inducer used and the granulocytic or monocytic pathways. Increase in basal activity which reflects the expression during development of both hPLD1 and hPLD2 appears to be mainly related to the former isozyme expression. Association of PLD characteristic changes with maturation and differentiation was also confirmed using two NB4 clones resistant to these processes. Comparison between PLD characteristics in myeloblasts during maturation and differentiation ex vivo and in vitro in the different cell lines demonstrated that NB4 induced to differentiate with ATRA represents the best model for further studies on the specific roles of each PLD isoform in various functions of differentiated myeloid cells.
