Fig. 6. PLD activity is required for oxidative-stress-mediated activation of PKD1. (A) HeLa cells express PLD1 and PLC . Cells were lysed 24 hours after plating and proteins were resolved by SDS-PAGE. Immunoblotting was performed against PLD1, PLD2 and PLC . Equal loading was controlled by immunoblotting against actin ( -Actin). (B) PLC and PLD1 activate PKD1. Cells were co-transfected with PKD1 and control vector, PLC or PLD1. PKD1 was immunoprecipitated ( -HA) and resolved by SDS-PAGE. Western blotting was performed with -pS738/S742, and the blot re-probed with -PKD1 to control expression. (C) Inhibition of pathways of DAG production. Abbreviations: DAG, diacylglycerol; DGK, diacylgylcerol kinase; IP3, inositol 1,4,5-triphosphate; LPA, lysophosphatidic acid; LPAAT, lysophosphatidic acid acyltransferase; PA, phosphatidic acid; PAP, phosphatidic acid phosphohydrolase; PI 4,5P2, phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate; PLA, phospholipase A; PLC, phospholipase C; PLD, phospholipase D. (D) Inhibition of PLC by U73122 has no effect on PKD1 activation in response to oxidative stress. Cells were transfected with PKD1, and either incubated with U73122 (5 µM, 30 minutes) or vehicle control. Cells were stimulated with H2O2 (10 mM, 10 minutes) where indicated. PKD1 was immunoprecipitated ( -HA) and resolved by SDS-PAGE. Western blotting was performed with -pS738/S742, and the blot re-probed with -PKD1 to control expression. (E,F) Inhibition of PLD blocks PKD1 activation in response to oxidative stress. Cells were transfected with PKD1, and either incubated with 1-butanol (0.2%, 10 minutes; E), propranolol (250 µM, 30 minutes; F) or left untreated. Cells were stimulated with H2O2 (10 mM, 10 minutes) where indicated. PKD1 was immunoprecipitated ( -HA) and resolved by SDS-PAGE. Western blots were performed with -pS738/742, and the blot re-probed with -PKD1 to control expression. Experiments were performed three times and similar results were obtained each time.
