摘要
We have used sonicated liposomes of phosphatidylcholine (PC), sphingomyelin (SM), or a mixture of cholesterol (chol) and PC to investigate the role of cellular lipid composition in Fc epsilon RI-mediated stimulation of RBL-2H3 cells. Overnight treatment with either PC or SM liposomes causes a substantial enhancement of antigen-stimulated degranulation and phospholipase A(2) activity, whereas treatment with a PC/chol mixture results in partial inhibition of the antigen-stimulated response. The most consistent change in the cellular lipid composition that results from the PC and SM liposome treatments is a similar to 40% decrease in the chol/phospholipid (PL) ratio. The lipid treatments do not alter degranulation stimulated by AlF4- or by Ca2+ ionophore in the presence or absence of PMA, suggesting that lipid alteration affects a receptor-specific signaling process. The lipid treatments do not appear to alter antigen-stimulated tyrosine phosphorylation or Ca2+ mobilization. Possible involvement of protein kinase C (PKC) activation in the signal-enhancing effect of the PL treatments was investigated by using calphostin C and phorbol-12-myristol-13-acetate (PMA) to inhibit PKC activity and degranulation in RBL-2H3 cells. Both SM and PC treatment restore the antigen-mediated degranulation response that is inhibited by long-term treatment (greater than or equal to 16 h) with 100 nM PMA or short-term treatment(10 min) with 5 mu M calphostin C. The results indicate that a decreased chol/PL ratio facilitates or enhances the receptor-mediated activation of a PKC-like pathway that plays an important role in Fc epsilon RI-stimulated degranulation. Our results support the hypothesis that membrane structure plays an important role in regulating the activation of downstream signaling pathways by activated receptor complexes.
