Abstract:Phospholipase D2 (PLD2) catalyzes the hydrolysis of phosphatidylcholine to yield phosphatidic acid (PA), a lipid second messenger. PLD2 is postulated to play a role in enhancing tumorigenesis. EL4 cells, derived from a murine lymphoma, present a unique model to elucidate the role of PLD2 in signal transduction since these cells lack endogenous PLD2 mRNA and protein. In order to elucidate PLD2‐mediated signal transduction, PLD2 was stably transfected into EL4‐V7 cells. In the current study, we asked whether the… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
