Regulation of platelet phospholipase C [PDF]

open access: possiblePhilosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of London. B, Biological Sciences, 1988
We have investigated factors affecting the activation of phospholipase C in human platelets. Prior exposure of platelets to phorbol esters that stimulate protein kinase C inhibits the activation of phospholipase C in response to a variety of receptor-directed agonists, including x- and y-thrombin and thromboxane A 2

Inhibition of phospholipase A2 and phospholipase C by polyamines

Archives of Biochemistry and Biophysics, 1978
Abstract The polyamines spermine, spermidine, and putrescine inhibit the activity of phospholipase A2 (Naja naja) and phospholipase C (Clostridium welchii) on phospholipid vesicles and mitochondrial membranes as sources of substrate phospholipids. The inhibitory effect is highest for spermine and lowest for putrescine.

The effect of phospholipase C in sheep

Scandinavian Journal of Clinical & Laboratory Investigation, 1983
Based on earlier studies in rats, phospholipase C (PLC) seemed to be a very promising prophylactic agent for certain types of thrombo-embolic disease. Recent studies in rabbits have, however, demonstrated that phospholipase C is more toxic than expected from the previous data.

Toxicity of phospholipase C in rabbits

Scandinavian Journal of Clinical and Laboratory Investigation, 1982
Tissue thromboplastin is the most potent physiological trigger of blood coagulation and is probably involved in the pathogenesis of several forms of intravascular coagulation. Phospholipase C from Bacillus cereus is an effective inhibitor of thromboplastin.

Regulation of phospholipase C isozymes

Progress in Growth Factor Research, 1992
Phosphatidylinositol bisphosphate hydrolysis is an immediate response to many hormones, including growth factors. The hydrolysis of phosphatidylinositol bisphosphate is catalyzed by phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C. A number of phospholipase C isozymes have been identified.

Selective phospholipase C activation

BioEssays, 1991
AbstractPhospholipase C is a family of cellular proteins believed to play a significant role in the intracellular signaling mechanisms utilized by diverse hormones. One class of hormones, polypeptide growth factors, elicits its influence on cellular function through stimulation of cell surface receptor tyrosine kinase activity.

[23] Assay for phospholipase C

1981
Publisher Summary This chapter discusses the different aspects of assay for phospholipase C. Phospholipase C has become a powerful tool for studying lipid–protein interactions and membrane structure and function. Use of phospholipase C for such studies necessitates the availability of a convenient assay for enzyme activity.

Phospholipase C

2003
Publisher Summary This chapter focuses on the phosphoinositide-specific phospholipase C (PLC) isozymes expressed in mammalian cells. It discusses molecular structure/function and activation mechanisms for phospholipase C enzymes and presents the physiologic consequences of PLC genetic knockouts.

A simplified assay for phospholipase C

Analytical Biochemistry, 1979
Abstract A new assay for phospholipase C activity that uses alkaline phosphatase to convert phosphorylcholine to inorganic phosphate is described. The determination of inorganic phosphate is performed in the presence of phosphatidylcholine and protein after the addition of sodium dodecyl sulfate.

Aspirin inhibits phospholipase C

Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 1986
We have shown previously that aspirin (ASA) ingestion by normal human volunteers inhibits peripheral blood monocyte phospholipase C (PLC) activities ex vivo. In order to explore further the mechanism of action of ASA, normal human monocytes and differentiated human U937 cells were treated with ASA and other salicylates. Cells preincubated with ASA were
