Regulation of acetylcholine-induced phosphorylation of PLD1 in porcine tracheal smooth muscle.
The muscarinic agonist, acetylcholine (ACh), stimulates phospholipase D (PLD) activity in tracheal smooth muscle cells. Direct activation of protein kinase C (PKC) by phorbol-12-myristate-13-acetate (PMA) also stimulates PLD in this tissue. Activation of ACh-induced PLD was inhibited by the tyrosine kinase inhibitor genistein in a concentration-dependent manner. Presently known isoforms of PLD, PLD1 and PLD2, were identified in tracheal smooth muscle and their activation-induced phosphorylation status studied. Both ACh and PMA increased phosphorylation of PLD1 that was significantly blocked by genistein or the PKC inhibitor calphostin C. PLD2 phosphorylation was not detected in the present experiments. Western blots probed with an anti-phosphotyrosine antibody indicate that PLD1 in this tissue is phosphorylated on tyrosine residues after ACh or PMA stimulation. Tyrosine phosphorylation of PLD1 was blocked by genistein and calphostin C. No tyrosine residues were phosphorylated on PLD2. Taken together, these results demonstrate that porcine tracheal smooth muscle cells express both isoforms PLD1 and PLD2. However, on muscarinic activation only PLD1 in this tissue is phosphorylated by PKC via a tyrosine-kinase-dependent pathway.
