Effect of membrane phosphatidylethanolamine‐deficiency/phosphatidylcholine‐excess on the metabolism of phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylethanolamine

Abstract: Cells of epithelial origin generally require ethanolamine (Etn) to grow in defined culture medium. When such cells are grown without Etn, the membrane phospholipid composition changes drastically, becoming phosphatidylethanolamine (PE)-deficient due to a reduced de novo rate of PE synthesis, and growth stops. We have hypothesized that the cessation of growth occurs because this membrane phospholipid environment is no longer suitable for membrane-associated functions. Phospholipid has long been known to play a … Show more

“…Based on the measured rate of PtdCho and PtdEtn hydrolysis, a number of cell types examined appear to possess only the PtdCho-specific PLD activity (reviewed in [17,18]). On the other hand, NIH 3T3 fibroblasts [33][34][35][36][37][38], endothelial cells [46], rat mesangial cells [41][42][43][44], human amnion cells [45], rat mammary cells [40], HeLa cells [39], baby-hamster kidney cells [33] and HL60 human leukaemic cells [33] clearly express both PtdCho-and PtdEtn-hydrolysing PLD activities.…”

“…Recently, stimulation of PtdEtn hydrolysis in response to activators of PLD also has been reported in several other cell types [39][40][41][42][43][44][45][46] 12 mg/ml L-proline, 50 ,ug/ml gentamicin and 10 % fetal bovine serum. Cells were passaged twice weekly and monitored routinely for their resistance to adriamycin.…”

“…When these cells are cultured without Etn, cellular functions, particularly those associated with cellular membranes, become abnormal, resulting in growth arrest (Kano-Sueoka and King, 1988;Kano-Sueoka et al, 1990;Fisk and Kano-Sueoka, 1992;Kano-Sueoka and Nicks, 1993). In addition, when deprived of Etn, membrane compositions are affected, witb the amouut of phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) decreasing by 50% and that of phosphatidylcholine (PC) increasing by 30%.…”

“…PMA also potentiates the mitogenic effect of insulin by a wortmannin-sensitive mechanism (9). Moreover, in NIH 3T3 fibroblasts (13,14) and in several other cell types (15)(16)(17)(18) PMA can stimulate the formation of ethanolamine from phosphatidylethanolamine (PtdEtn) by a mechanism involving a specific PLD activity. These observations raise the possibility that ethanolamine may contribute to the growth regulating and/or tumor promoting effects of PMA.…”
