Involvement of Calcium-independent Phospholipase A2 in Hydrogen Peroxide-induced Accumulation of Free Fatty Acids in Human U937 Cells*

María A. BalboaDagger and Jesús Balsinde§

From the Institute of Molecular Biology and Genetics, University of Valladolid School of Medicine, E-47005 Valladolid, Spain

Previous studies have demonstrated that U937 cells are able to mobilize arachidonic acid (AA) and synthesize prostaglandins in response to receptor-directed and soluble stimuli by a mechanism that involves the activation of Group IV cytosolic phospholipase A2alpha . In this paper we show that these cells also mobilize AA in response to an oxidative stress induced by H2O2 through a mechanism that appears not to be mediated by cytosolic phospholipase A2alpha but by the calcium-independent Group VI phospholipase A2 (iPLA2). This is supported by the following lines of evidence: (i) the response is essentially calcium-independent, (ii) it is inhibited by bromoenol lactone, and (iii) it is inhibited by an iPLA2 antisense oligonucleotide. Enzyme assays conducted under a variety of conditions reveal that the specific activity of the iPLA2 does not change as a result of H2O2 exposure, which argues against the activation of a specific signaling cascade ending in the iPLA2. Rather, the oxidant acts to perturb membrane homeostasis in a way that the enzyme susceptibility/accessibility to its substrate increases, and this results in altered fatty acid release. In support of this view, not only AA, but also other fatty acids, were found to be liberated in an iPLA2-dependent manner in the H2O2-treated cells. Collectively, these studies underscore the importance of the iPLA2 in modulating homeostatic fatty acid deacylation reactions and document a potentially important route under pathophysiological conditions for increasing free fatty acid levels during oxidative stress.
