Abstract

The relationship between receptor binding of the formylated peptide chemoattractant formylmethionylleucylphenylalanine (fMet-Leu-Phe), lysosomal enzyme secretion and metabolism of membrane phospholipids was evaluated in both human polymorphonuclear leucocytes (PMN) and the dimethyl sulphoxide (Me2SO)-stimulated human myelomonocytic HL-60 leukaemic cell line. In both cell types, exposure to fMet-Leu-Phe (100 nM) induced rapid lysosomal enzyme secretion (maximal release less than 30 s) and marked changes in the 32P-labelling of the inositol lipids phosphatidylinositol (PtdIns), phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PtdIns4P), phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate [PtdIns(4,5)P2] as well as phosphatidic acid (PtdA). Specifically, levels of [32P]PtdIns and [32P]PtdIns(4,5)P2 decreased rapidly (peak decrease at 10-15s), with a subsequent increase at 30 s and later. PtdIns4P and PtdA showed only an increase. In Me2SO-differentiated HL-60 cells prelabelled with [3H]inositol for 20 h, fMet-Leu-Phe caused a net increase in the cellular content of [3H]inositol phosphates, including a rapid increase in [3H]inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate, suggesting that PtdIns(4,5)P2 breakdown occurs by a phospholipase C mechanism. Both lysosomal enzyme secretion and changes in phospholipid metabolism occur over the same agonist concentration range with a similar time course. Binding of [3H]fMet-Leu-Phe, although occurring over the same concentration range, exhibited markedly slower kinetics. Although depletion of extracellular Ca2+ had no effect on ligand-induced polyphosphoinositide turnover, PtdIns turnover, PtdA labelling and lysosomal enzyme secretion were severely curtailed. These studies demonstrate a receptor-mediated enhancement of phospholipid turnover that correlates with a specific biological response to fMet-Leu-Phe. Further, the results are consistent with the idea that phospholipase C-mediated degradation of PtdIns(4,5)P2, which results in the formation of inositol trisphosphate, is an early step in the stimulus-secretion coupling pathway of the neutrophil. The lack of correlation between these two responses and the equilibrium-binding condition suggests that either these parameters are responsive to the rate of ligand-receptor interaction or only fractional occupation is required for a full biological response.
