Phospholipid metabolism and lysosomal enzyme secretion by leukocytes. Effects of dibutyryl cyclic adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate and ATP.
The effects of dibutyryl cyclic adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate and ATP on isotope incorporation into phospholipids and the release of beta-glucuronidase into the extracellular medium were studied in polymorphonuclear leukocytes from guinea pig peritoneal exudates. Exogenous dibutyryl cyclic adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate (0.1--1.0 mM) reduced beta-glucoronidase release induced by cytochalasin B in the absence of inert particles. It selectively inhibited 32Pi incorporation into phosphatidic acid and the phosphoinositides and the incorporation of myo-[2-3H]inositol into the phosphoinositides. Added ATP (0.1--1.0 MM), but not other nucleotides, was found to potentiate beta-glucuronidase release provoked by cytochasin B, but it impaired the labeling of the phosphoinositides by myo-[2-3H]inositol. The mechanism of the inhibition the isotope incarparation into these acidic phospholipids by the two mucleotides has not been defined. Dibutyryl cyclic adenosine 3':5'-monophosphate at 2--4 mM concentration was not found to appreciably alter the incorporation of [gamma-32P]ATP into phosphatidic acid, phosphatidylinositol, diphosphoinositide, and triphosphoinositide.
