Abstract

Deoxycholate promotes phospholipase C degradation of endogenous phosphatidyl[3H]inositol (PI), phosphatidyl[3H]inositol monophosphate (PIP) and phosphatidyl[3H]inositol bisphosphate (PIP2) in rat cornea and human platelets. Hydrolysis of phosphatidyl[3H]inositol significantly lags polyphospho[3H]inositide degradation. Concomitantly, formation of [3H]inositol monophosphate (IP1) lags behind [3H]inositol bisphosphate (IP2) and [3H]inositol trisphosphate (IP3) production. These results demonstrate that rat cornea and human platelet phospholipase C cause a preferential hydrolysis of the endogenous polyphosphoinositides rather than phosphatidylinositol.
