Evidence of protein kinase C involvement in phorbol diester-stimulated arachidonic acid release and prostaglandin synthesis

J Parker, LW Daniel and M Waite

Many stimulators of prostaglandin production are thought to activate the Ca2+- and phospholipid-dependent protein kinase first described by Nishizuka and his colleagues (Takai, Y., Kishimoto, A., Iwasa, Y., Kawahara, Y., Mori, T., and Nishizuka, Y. (1979) J. Biol. Chem. 254, 3692-3695. In this paper we report evidence that the activation of protein kinase C caused by 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) is involved in the increased prostaglandin production induced by 12-O- tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate in Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells. We have shown that TPA activates protein kinase C in MDCK cells with similar dose response curve as observed for TPA induction of arachidonic acid release in MDCK cells. Activation of protein kinase C was associated with increased phosphorylation of proteins of 40,000 and 48,000 daltons. We used two compounds (1-O-octadecyl-2-O-methyl-rac- glycero-3-phosphocholine (ET-18-OMe) and 1-(5- isoquinolinesulfonyl)piperazine) known to inhibit protein kinase C by different mechanisms to further examine if activation of protein kinase C was involved in the increased synthesis of prostaglandins in TPA- treated MDCK cells. We found that both compounds inhibited protein kinase C partially purified from MDCK cells and that ET-18-OMe inhibited the phosphorylation of proteins by protein kinase C in the intact cells. Addition of either compound during or after TPA treatment decreased both release of arachidonic acid from phospholipids and prostaglandin synthesis. Release of [3H]arachidonic acid from phosphatidylethanolamine in TPA-treated cells was blocked by ET-18-OMe or 1-(5-isoquinolinesulfonyl)piperazine addition. However, arachidonic acid release stimulated by A23187 is not blocked by Et-18-OMe. When assayed in vitro, treatment of cells with Et-18-OMe did not prevent the enhanced conversion of arachidonic acid into prostaglandins induced by pretreatment of cells with TPA. Our results suggest that the stimulation of phospholipase A2 activity by TPA occurs via activation of protein kinase C by TPA.
