Abstract
  • Modulation of cytosolic phospholipase A(2) (PLA(2)) expression levels and production of its metabolites have been reported in several tumor types, indicating involvement of arachidonic acid and its derivatives in tumorigenesis. Following our demonstration that the PLA(2) group IV isoform alpha (PLA(2)IV alpha) controls TSH-independent growth of normal thyroid (PCCl(3)) cells, we have investigated the mitogenic role of PLA(2)IV alpha in rat thyroid cells transformed by the RET/PTC oncogenes (PC-PTC cells). We now report that PLA(2)IV alpha acts downstream of the RET/PTC oncogenes in a novel pathway controlling RET-dependent cell proliferation. In addition, we show that PLA(2)IV alpha is in its phosphorylated/active form not only in RET/PTC-transformed cells and in cells derived from human papillary carcinomas but also in lysates from tumor tissues, thus relating constitutive activation of PLA(2)IV alpha to RET/PTC-dependent tumorigenesis. Moreover, p38 stress-activated protein kinase is the downstream effector of RET/PTC that is responsible for PLA(2)IV alpha phosphorylation and activity. In summary, our data elucidate a novel mechanism in the control of thyroid tumor cell growth that is induced by the RET/PTC oncogenes and which is distinguishable from that of other oncogenes, such as BRAF. This mechanism is mediated by PLA(2)IV alpha and should be amenable to targeted pharmacologic intervention. (literal)
