Abstract : Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) is a lipid mediator that may play an important role in growth and survival of carcinomas. In this study, LPA production and response were characterized in two human prostate cancer (CaP) cell lines: PC-3 and Du145. Bombesin, a neuroendocrine peptide that is mitogenic for CaP cells, stimulated focal adhesion kinase phosphorylation and activated the extracellular signal-regulated kinase/mitogen-activated protein kinase pathway. Similar responses were elicited by 18:1 LPA (oleoyl-LPA). Studies using radioisotopic labeling revealed that both PC-3 and Du145 generate LPA and that LPA production is increased by bombesin. The kinetics of bombesin-induced phospholipase D activation and LPA production were similar. Using electrospray ionization mass spectrometry, 18:1 LPA was found to be an abundant LPA species in CaP cell medium. Structure activity studies of acyl-LPAs revealed that 18:1 LPA is most efficacious for activation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase and phospholipase D in CaP cells. Incubation with 18:1 LPA caused homologous desensitization of LPA response, whereas bombesin caused heterologous desensitization. LPA was present at nanomolar levels in medium from bombesin-treated cells. LPA extracted from the medium induced calcium mobilization in CaP cells. These results demonstrate that bioactive LPA is generated by CaP cells in response to a mitogen and suggest that 18:1 LPA can act as an autocrine mediator.
