Each of these three signals triggers multiple molecular processes impacting key cellular properties. The activation of PLC also triggers a sequence of biochemical reactions, collectively referred to as the PI(4,5)P2 cycle that culminates in the resynthesis of this lipid. The biochemical intermediates of this cycle and the enzymes that mediate these reactions are topologically distributed across two membrane compartments, the PM and the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). At the plasma membrane, the DG formed during PLC activation is rapidly converted to phosphatidic acid (PA) that needs to be transported to the ER where the machinery for its conversion into PI is localised. Conversely, PI from the ER needs to be rapidly transferred to the plasma membrane where it can be phosphorylated by lipid kinases to regenerate PI(4,5)P2.

Received: 17 February 2010; in revised form: 4 March 2010 / Accepted: 5 March 2010 / Published: 8 March 2010 Abstract: New synthetic methods for the preparation of biologically active phospholipids and lysophospholipids (LPLs) are very important in solving problems of membrane–chemistry and biochemistry. Traditionally considered just as second-messenger molecules regulating intracellular signalling pathways, LPLs have recently shown to be involved in many physiological and pathological processes such as inflammation, reproduction, angiogenesis, tumorogenesis, atherosclerosis and nervous system regulation. Elucidation of the mechanistic details involved in the enzymological, cell-biological and membrane-biophysical roles of LPLs relies obviously on the availability of structurally diverse compounds. A variety of chemical and enzymatic routes have been reported in the literature for the synthesis of LPLs: the enzymatic transformation of natural glycerophospholipids (GPLs) using regiospecific enzymes such as phospholipases A1 (PLA1), A2 (PLA2) phospholipase D (PLD) and different lipases, the coupling of enzymatic processes with chemical transformations, the complete chemical synthesis of LPLs starting from glycerol or derivatives. In this review, chemo- enzymatic procedures leading to 1- and 2-LPLs will be described.

Although there are many pathways to synthesize and degrade PA, a family of PA phosphohydrolases (lipin family proteins) that generate diacylglycerol constitute the primary pathway for PA incorporation into triglycerides. Previously, it was believed that the pool of PA used to synthesize triglyceride was distinct, compartmentalized, and did not widely intersect with signaling pathways. However, we now know that modulating the activity of lipin 1 has profound effects on signaling in a variety of cell types. Indeed, in most tissues except adipose tissue, lipin-mediated PA phosphohydrolase activity is far from limiting for normal rates of triglyceride synthesis, but rather impacts critical signaling cascades that control cellular homeostasis. In this review, we will discuss how lipin-mediated control of PA concentrations regulates metabolism and signaling in mammalian organisms. Keywords: phosphatidic acid; diacylglycerol; lipin; signaling 1.

  • Phosphatidic Acid: Biosynthesis, Pharmacokinetics, Mechanisms of Action and Effect on Strength and Body Composition in Resistance-Trained Individuals Peter Bond
    Bond Nutrition & Metabolism (2017) 14:12 DOI 10.1186/s12986-017-0166-6 REVIEW Open Access Phosphatidic acid: biosynthesis, pharmacokinetics, mechanisms of action and effect on strength and body composition in resistance-trained individuals Peter Bond Abstract The mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) has received much attention in the field of exercise physiology as a master regulator of skeletal muscle hypertrophy. The multiprotein complex is regulated by various signals such as growth factors, energy status, amino acids and mechanical stimuli. Importantly, the glycerophospholipid phosphatidic acid (PA) appears to play an important role in mTORC1 activation by mechanical stimulation. PA has been shown to modulate mTOR activity by direct binding to its FKBP12-rapamycin binding domain. Additionally, it has been suggested that exogenous PA activates mTORC1 via extracellular conversion to lysophosphatidic acid and subsequent binding to endothelial differentiation gene receptors on the cell surface. Recent trials have therefore evaluated the effects of PA supplementation in resistance-trained individuals on strength and body composition. As research in this field is rapidly evolving, this review attempts to provide a comprehensive overview of its biosynthesis, pharmacokinetics, mechanisms of action and effect on strength and body composition in resistance-trained individuals.

  • Inositol Phospholipid and Phosphatidic Acid Metabolism in Response to Membrane Receptor Activation
    Proceedings ofthe Nuttition Society (1985)~44, 167-172 167 Inositol phospholipid and phosphatidic acid metabolism in response to membrane receptor activation By J. N. HAWTHORNE,Department of Biochemistry, University Hospital and Medical School, Nottingham NG7 2UH The status of myo-inositol (Fig. r(a)) as a vitamin is uncertain since some human tissues can synthesize it from glucose-6-phosphate. Eagle et a1. (1957), however, showed that it was an essential growth factor for many human cells in tissue culture. The concentration required for optimum growth was higher than would be expected of a typical vitamin, suggesting a metabolic role for inositol. It now seems clear that this role involves the phospholipids which contain inositol, phosphatidylinositol (PtdIns), phosphatidylinositol-4-phosphate(PtdInsqP; Fig. ~(b))and phosphatidylinositol-q,5-bisphosphate(PtdIns(,+,g)P,; Fig. ~(c)). For the nutritionist these phosphoinositides are of interest in at least three ways. First, their metabolism is linked to activation of many cell-surface receptors, most of which mobilize calcium (Michell, 1975). Second, very recent studies connect the phosphoinositides with control of cell proliferation through epidermal growth factor and with malignant transformation of cells. Third, these lipids are rich in arachidonic acid and in some cells this particular pool of the acid is used as a source of prostanoids. The present paper concentrates on the first two of these topics since they are attracting a good deal of attention and some controversy. Phosphoinositides and Ca mobilization Michell ( 1975) suggested that phosphoinositide-linked receptors were those which utilized Ca2+ as a ‘second messenger’ and he developed a theory linking OH (a’ OH I DHOH OH (b) opoj- OH (C) 0 II 0 - P - 0 - CH2 I I CH~~COR’ CHSCOR’ Fig.
