Abstract

Osmotic swelling of NIH3T3 mouse fibroblasts activates a bromoenol lactone (BEL)-sensitive taurine efflux, pointing to the involvement of a Ca2+-independent phospholipase A2 (iPLA2) (Lambert IH. J Membr Biol 192: 19-32, 2003). We report that taurine efflux from NIH3T3 cells was not only increased by cell swelling but also decreased by cell shrinkage. Arachidonic acid release to the cell exterior was similarly decreased by shrinkage yet not detectably increased by swelling. NIH3T3 cells were found to express cytosolic calcium-dependent cPLA2-IVA, cPLA2-IVB, cPLA2-IVC, iPLA2-VIA, iPLA2-VIB, and secretory sPLA2-V. Arachidonic acid release from swollen cells was partially inhibited by BEL and by the sPLA2-inhibitor manoalide. Cell swelling elicited BEL-sensitive arachidonic acid release from the nucleus, to which iPLA2-VIA localized. Exposure to the bee venom peptide melittin, to increase PLA2 substrate availability, potentiated arachidonic acid release and osmolyte efflux in a volume-sensitive, 5-lipoxygenase-dependent, cyclooxygenase-independent manner. Melittin-induced arachidonic acid release was inhibited by manoalide and slightly but significantly by BEL. A BEL-sensitive, melittin-induced PLA2 activity was also detected in lysates devoid of sPLA2, indicating that both sPLA2 and iPLA2 contribute to arachidonic acid release in vivo. Swelling-induced taurine efflux was inhibited potently by BEL and partially by manoalide, whereas the reverse was true for melittin-induced taurine efflux. It is suggested that in NIH3T3 cells, swelling-induced taurine efflux is dependent at least in part on arachidonic acid release by iPLA2 and possibly also by sPLA2, whereas melittin-induced taurine efflux is dependent on arachidonic acid release by sPLA2 and, to a lesser extent, iPLA2.
