Abstract
  • The mechanisms by which the activities of phospholipase C-β (PLC-β) enzymes are negatively regulated have not been well defined. We used cardiac-derived ratmyoblast H9c2 cells to investigate possible modes of regulation of PLC-β3 enzymes,the only endogenous β isoform abundantly found in these cells. The PLC-β3population in these cells was detected almost exclusively associated with membrane with only trace amounts being cytosolic. H9c2 cells responded to vasopressin stimulation through the PLC-β pathway in a concentration-dependent manner. Direct activation of endogenous protein kinase C (PKC) by phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate(PMA) significantly diminished vasopressin effects on PLC-β3-mediated PIhydrolysis. However, phosphorylation of PLC-β3 at the Ser1105 residue, the widely recognized primary phosphorylation site on PLC-β3, was not observed upon PKC activation. Other possible mechanisms by which the agonist-stimulated PLC-β3activity is modulated were also tested. Short-term or prolonged stimulation of these cells with either vasopressin or stimulation of PKC by PMA did not promote translocation or down-regulation of the PLC-β3 population within the time frame tested. Our observations imply that in H9c2 cells, activated PLC-β3 enzymes may be negatively regulated utilizing some other molecular mechanism not tested in this study.
