title: Cytosolic phospholipase A2 is responsible for prostaglandin E2 and leukotriene B4 formation in phagocyte-like PLB-985 cells: studies of differentiated cPLA2-deficient PLB-985 cells.
abstract: Our previously established model of cytosolic phospholipase A(2) (cPLA(2))-deficient, differentiated PLB-985 cells (PLB-D cells) was used to determine the physiological role of cPLA(2) in eicosanoid production. Parent PLB-985 (PLB) cells and PLB-D cells were differentiated toward the monocyte or granulocyte lineages using 5 x 10(-)(8) M 1,25 dihydroxyvitamin D(3) or 1.25% dimethyl sulfoxide, respectively. Parent monocyte- or granulocyte-like PLB cells released prostaglandin E(2) (PGE(2)) when stimulated by ionomycin, A23187, opsonized zymosan, phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate, or formyl-Met-Leu-Phe (fMLP), and monocyte- or granulocyte-like PLB-D cells did not release PGE(2) with any of the agonists. The kinetics of cPLA(2) translocation to nuclear fractions in monocyte-like PLB cells stimulated with fMLP or ionomycin was in correlation with the kinetics of PGE(2) production. Granulocyte-like PLB cells, but not granulocyte-like PLB-D cells, secreted leukotriene B(4) (LTB(4)) after stimulation with ionomycin or A23187. Preincubation of monocyte-like parent PLB cells with 100 ng/ml lipopolysaccharide (LPS) for 16 h enhanced stimulated PGE(2) production, which is in correlation with the increased levels of cPLA(2) detected in these cells. LPS preincubation was less potent in increasing PGE(2) and LTB(4) secretion and did not affect cPLA(2) expression in granulocyte-like PLB cells, which may be a result of their lower levels of surface LPS receptor expression. LPS had no effect on monocyte- or granulocyte-like PLB-D cells. The lack of eicosanoid formation in stimulated, differentiated cPLA(2)-deficient PLB cells indicates that cPLA(2) contributes to stimulated eicosanoid formation in monocyte- and granulocyte-like PLB cells.
