タイトル Lysophosphatidic acid sensitizes mechanical stress-induced Ca2+ mobilization in cultured human lung epithelial cells.
ジャーナル Life Sci
Abstract We conformed that lysophosphatidic acid (LPA), which is known to be released from activated platelets, sensitizes response in cytosolic free Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) to mechanical stimulation in cultured epithelial cells (REPF-LC-AI cells) from human lung carcinoma. [Ca2+]i was transiently increased by spritzing of bath solution onto cells as mechanical stimulation in the presence of LPA with concentration-dependent manner (10-100 nM). The transient increase induced by the mechanical stimulation in the presence of LPA was inhibited by 10 microM Ga3+ or removing extracellular Ca2+, but not by 10 microM nicaridipine, suggesting that LPA sensitizes mechanical stimulation-induced Ca2+ influx through stretch-activated ion channels. Phosphatidic acid (1 microM), but not lysophosphatidycholine (10 microM), histamine (100 nM), bradykinin (10 nM), nor ionomycin (100 nM), caused the same effect as that of LPA. This effect was observed in confluent cells, but not in subconfluent cells. These results show that LPA sensitizes mechanoreceptor-linked response in human lung epithelial cells, suggesting a possibility that LPA affects lung function, in particular, during pathological state.
