Despite an intriguing cell biology and the suggestion of a role in
pathophysiological responses, the mechanism of action of such lipid
phosphoric acid mediators as lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) remains
obscure, in part because of an underdeveloped medicinal chemistry. We
report now the agonist activity of a synthetic phospholipid in which
the glycerol backbone of LPA is replaced by L-serine. Like
LPA, the L-serine-based lipid mobilizes calcium and
inhibits activation of adenylyl cyclase in the human breast cancer cell line MDA MB231. Treatment with LPA desensitizes MDA MB231 cells to
subsequent application of the L-serine compound; when the
order of application is reversed, however, the L-serine
compound does not prevent calcium mobilization by LPA, which might
indicate the existence of two LPA receptors in these cells. The
analogous D-serine-based phospholipid was distinctly less
potent than the L-isomer in those assays; this finding
demonstrates stereoselectivity by an LPA receptor. Unlike LPA, the
L-serine-based lipid does not evoke a chloride conductance
in Xenopus laevis oocytes, but injection of
poly(A)+ RNA from HEK 293 cells confers this phenotype on
the oocyte. The latter result has practical importance in that it
allows use of the frog oocyte for expression cloning of an LPA receptor
DNA, an assay system made problematic by the oocyte's strong
endogenous response to LPA.
