Platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) stimulates the hydrolysis of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (Ptd InsP2) via phospholipase C-γ1 (PLC-γ1) in Swiss 3T3 cells. Treatment of cells with the protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitor RO-31-8220 (cas 138489-18-6) greatly decreased PDGF-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of PLC-γ1, but paradoxically enhanced the production of inositol phosphates (InsPs). The inhibitor also caused an increase of PDGF receptor tyrosine phosphorylation at later times. The changes in phosphorylation of the receptor were correlated with alterations in PLC-γ1 translocation to the particulate fraction. Thus, although activation of PLC-γ1 was associated with phosphorylation of the receptor and translocation of the enzyme to the particulate fraction, it was dissociated from its tyrosine phosphorylation. A non-receptor-associated, cytosolic tyrosine kinase also was found to phosphorylate PLC-γ1 in a PDGF-dependent manner, but was not inhibited by Ro-31-8220 in vitro. PKC depletion by phorbol ester treatment decreased the tyrosine phosphorylation of PLC-γ1 induced by PDGF and slowed the translocation of PLC-γ1, but Ro-31-8220 produced further effects. The effect of Ro-31-8220 to enhance the production of InsPs could not be attributed to inhibition of PKC since InsPs production with PDGF was decreased in PKC-depleted cells and a stimulatory effect of the inhibitor was still evident. Interestingly, Ro-31-8220 decreased the radioactivity in phosphatidylinositol and increased that in phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate and PtdInsP2 in cells labeled with myo[3H]inositol. The increased synthesis of PtdInsP2 could contribute to the increased production of InsPs induced by Ro-31-8220. In summary, these results support the conclusion that the activation of PLC-γ1 in response to PDGF requires autophosphorylation of the receptor and membrane association of PLC-γ1, but not phosphorylation of the enzyme. Furthermore, the effects of Ro-31-8220 on the tyrosine phosphorylation and activity of PLC-γ1, and on PtdInsP2 synthesis cannot be attributed to inhibition of PKC. © 1997 Elsevier Science B.V.
