As an inhibitor of phosphatidylcholine-specific phospholipase C (PC-PLC), D609 has been widely used to explain the role of PC-PLC in various signal transduction pathways. This study shows that D609 inhibits group IV cytosolic phospholipase $A_2$ ($cPLA_2$), but neither secretory $PLA_2$ nor a $Ca^{2+}$-dependent $PLA_2$. Dixon plot analysis shows a mixed pattern of noncompetitive and uncompetitive inhibition with $K_i=86.25{\mu}M$ for the $cPLA_2$ purified from bovine spleen. D609 also time- and dose-dependently reduces the release of arachidonic acid from a $Ca^{2+}$- ionophore A23187-stimulated MDCK cells. In the AA release experiment, $IC_{50}$ of D609 was ${\sim375}{\mu}M$, suggesting that this reagent may not enter the cells easily. The present study indicates that the inhibitory effects of D609 on various cellular responses may be partially attributable to the inhibition of $cPLA_2$.

This experimental studies were performed in order to prove the effect of Phospholipase A₂(PLA₂) Herbal-acupuncture by using rats that had neuronal damage due to the Middle Cerebral Artery Occulsion(MCAO). We observed the change of extracellular concentrations(μM) Of dopamine, DOPAC, HVA, HIAA, glutamate, aspartate, GABA, glysine, taurine, alanine, and tyrosine as extracted by vivo microdialysis, in the PLA₂ Herbal-acupuncture administrated rats(240-260g, Sprague-Dawley) subjected to the MCAO. The dialysates were extracted three times before the MCAO and six times after the MCAO every 20 minutes, and ana lysed by highperformance liquid chromatography(HPLC). PLA₂ Herbal-acupuncture significantly inhibited glutamate and tyrosine which are stimulant neurotransmitters at brain ischemia, and it significantly decreased glycine, GABA, taurine, and alanine which are inhibitory neurotransmitters at brain ischemia. PLA₂ Herbal-acupuncture may prevent delayed neuronal death(DND) in selectively vulnerable focal areas of the brain effectively.

Background: According to the notion of the immunoregulatory functions of moxifloxacin (MFX), the effect of MFX on the neutrophilic respiratory burst in conjunction with the expression of cytosolic phospholipase $A_2$ ($cPLA_2$) was investigated. Methods: The effects and possible mechanisms of MFX on neutrophilic respiratory burst in oleic acid (OA)-induced acutely injured rats lung and OA-stimulated, isolated murine neutrophils were probed, associated with the expression of cytosolic phospholipase $A_2$ in vivo and in vitro. Results: In the OA-induced acutely-injured lungs, neutrophils were accumulated, which was attenuated by MFX. The parameters denoting a neutrophilic respiratory burst, such as nitro blue tetrazolium reaction, cytochrome-c reduction, neutrophil aggregation, $H_2O_2$ production in neutrophils revealed increased neutrophilic respiratory burst by OA, and MFX decreased all of these parameters. In addition, the enhanced expression of $cPLA_2$ in the lung and isolated murine neutrophils by OA were decreased by MFX. Conclusion: MFX suppresses the OA-induced neutrophilic respiratory burst by the suppression of $cPLA_2$ in neutrophils.

In order to screen microorganisms producing phospholipase D (PLD) [EC 3.1.4.4], culture broths of about 900 strains of soil bacteria were subjected to examine for the PLD activity. When the hydrolytic activity of PLD (H-activity) in the supernatant was determined, 64 strains produced PLD more than 0.3 unit/ml and all of them were actinomycetes. Among 26 culture broths tested, 6 ones had transphosphatidylation activity (T-activity) of 30~68%. When the strains except one were cultivated on 3 different media at 30$\circ$C for 3 days under aerobic condition, strain # 1090 on medium B (yeast extract 1%, peptone 1%, glucose 1.5%, glycerol 1%, CaCO$_{3}$ 0.4%, and pH 7.2) produced PLD with much higher H- and T-activity, which were 8.3 units/ml and 76.3%, respectively. Subsequently, time course of PLD production of the strain # 1090 during cultivation with aeration of 1 v/v/m and agitation of 400 rpm at 30$\circ$C for 5 days on medium B in jar fermentor was investigated. H-activty of PLD reached almost maximum (about 9 units/ml) after 32 hours and maximal T-activity was found to be about 80%.

한외여과법을 이용하여 봉독의 알러지 원인성분인 $PLA_2$를 제거하기 위하여 압력, 농도, 분자크기의 영향을 조사하였다. 봉독의 주요성분 분자량을 바탕으로 한외여과막의 투과크기를 선정하고 농도와 압력을 달리하였다. 그 결과, melittin과 apamin 함량은 유지되면서 $PLA_2$를 제거하는 최적조건(1 mg/mL, 20 psi, 10,000 dalton)을 찾았으며, 이를 HPLC와 SDS-PAGE로 확인하였다.

Method : The expression of phospholipase $A_2$ was determined by western blotting with corresponding antibodies, and the generation of intracellular calcium concentration was investigated by delta scan system in RAW 264.7 cells. Results : 1. Compared with control, expressions of lipopolysaccharide-induced phospholipase $A_2$ were decreased significantly by $1\;{\mu}g/{\mu}l$ of bee venom and decreased by 0.5, $5\;{\mu}g/{\mu}l$ of bee venom. 2. Compared with control, expressions of sodium nitroprusside-induced phospholipase $A_2$ were decreased significantly by $5\;{\mu}g/{\mu}l$ of bee venom but increased by 0.5, $5\;{\mu}g/{\mu}l$ of bee venom. 3.

Phospholipase C는 second messenger로서 세포 밖의 signal transduction에 중요한 효소 이다. 본 연구에서 소의 뇌, 자궁 및 고환에서 high performance liquid chromatography(HPLC)를 이용하여 phospholipase C(PLC)를 추출하였으며 뇌에서 3개의 isozyme(F-1, F-2, F-3), 자궁과 고환에서 각각 2개의 isozyme을 얻었고 HPLC에서의 retension time을 구하였다. Homogeneity 검사를 위하여 소 brain의 각 isozyme I, II 및 III에 대한 PLC-monoclonal antibody(Mab)를 affigel에 label 시켰고 결합능(binding capacity)는 73.8~97.5%였다. PLC-Mab와 자궁 및 고환의 PLC isozyme과의 homogeneity 검사에서 binding capacity는 자궁의 F-1은 PLC III가 주이며 F-2는 DEAE column에서는 II가 주이나 phenyl column에선 I과 II가 주이고 고환에선 F-1은 PLC III가 주이고 F-2에서는 PLC II가 주인 것으로 나타났다.

To define the effect of silica on the stimulator of signaling pathway, we studied the phospholipase D (PLD) activity in the Rat2 fibroblasts. Silica stimulated the accumulation of labeled $[^3H]$ phosphatidylethanol$([^3H]\;PEt)$ in a time- and concentration-dependent manner. This Silicainduced PLD activity was partially attenuated by the pretreatment with U73122 (phospholipase C inhibitor), genistein (protein tyrosine kinase inhibitor), PD 98056 (MEK inhibitor) and mepacrine (phospholipase $A_2$ inhibitor). But, sphingosine (protein kinase C inhibitor) and DPI (NADPH reductase inhibitor) had not effect the PLD activity. Silica also increased the PLD activity about four fold, which imply that the PLD activity is more influenced by the mobilization of PLD than other signaling mediators. The PLD activity also partially inhibited calcium chelator EGTA or/and BAPTA/AM compared to silica. Finally, we concluded that a silica-stimulated phospholipase D activity is present in the Rat2 fibroblasts and is modulated by combination of various signaling mediators.

Phospholipase D (PLD)는 세포막을 구성하는 주요지질인 인지질을 분해하여, 이차신호전달물질인 phosphatidic acid (PA)를 생성함으로써 세포의 성장 및 증식, 생존신호전달등 세포내 다양한 생리현상을 조절하는 중요한 신호전달 핵심단백질로 대두되고 있다. PLD의 비정상적인 발현과 활성은 다양한 암을 비롯한 여러 질환에서 나타난다. PLD에 의해 생성된 PA는 세포사멸 유전자의 발현을 감소시켜서 세포사멸에 대한 내성을 나타내고 있다.최근에, 세포사멸과정에서 PLD 단백질의 turnover dynamics에 관한 분자수준에서의 연구가 규명되었다. PLD는, 세포사멸시 활성화되는 단백질 분해효소인 caspases의 새로운 기질로 작용하여 세포사멸을 차별적으로 조절을 한다. Caspase에 의한 PLD동위효소의 차별적인 분해양상이 PLD의 효소활성과 세포사멸억제 기능을 조절한다. 그래서 PLD는 암치료의 표적분자로서의 가능성이 제시된다. 본 리뷰논문에서, 세포사멸조절 PLD의 기능적 역할에 대해 서술하고자 한다.

Streptomyces somaliensis가 생산하는 phospholipase D (PLD)를 정제하기 위하여 펩티드 항체 결합 면역 친화 크로마토그래피용 칼럼을 개발하였다. 단백질 구조 예측 프로그램과 Streptomyces PLD X-선 결정구조를 참조하여, S. somaliensis PLD의 1차 구조로부터 항원특성이 높고. 표면에 위치하는 것으로 예상된 5종류의 펩티드들을 epitope로 선정한 뒤, 이에 대한 항체로 면역친화 크로마토그래피용 칼럼을 제작하였다. 배양 농축액을 칼럼에 통과시켜 정제한 활성 분획을 SDS-PAGE 및 Western blot 결과, 칼럼 종류에 따라 순수한 PLD또는 35 kDa의 단백질 불순물만을 포함하는 PLD 정제 분획을 보여 면역친화 칼럼의 높은 항원결합 특이성을 보여주었다. 그러나 수용액상에서 PLD 자체의 구조적 불안정성 때문에 정제 후 PLD의 특이적 활성 및 정제 수율은 낮았다.
