In order to examine the role of phosphatidylinositol bisphosphate (PIP2) hydrolysis in B cell activation, we studied the effect of various classes of protein kinase C (PKC) activators on anti-Ig-mediated B cell stimulation. Anti-Ig-stimulated PIP2 hydrolysis, elevations in [Ca2+]i, and induction of DNA synthesis were inhibited by PMA (a phorbol ester) as previously reported. In contrast, indolactam (an alkaloid PKC activator) inhibited PIP2 hydrolysis and elevations in [Ca2+]i, but stimulated rather than inhibited cellular proliferation. In order to examine whether the binding avidity of the PKC activators to PKC played a role in determining their activity to stimulate or inhibit B cell activation, we studied two other PKC activators, bryostatin and mezerein. Again, both inhibited anti-Ig mediated PIP2 hydrolysis and elevations in [Ca2+]i, whereas only the former inhibited induction of DNA synthesis. These data suggest that a) high levels of PIP2 hydrolysis and elevations in [Ca2+]i are not essential for anti-Ig-mediated induction of B cell DNA synthesis and b) activation of PKC may induce both stimulatory and inhibitory pathways of B cell activation, and whether stimulation or inhibition of cell activation is observed may depend on the combined intensity of these two signals.

D008213 Lymphocyte Activation Morphologic alteration of small B LYMPHOCYTES or T LYMPHOCYTES in culture into large blast-like cells able to synthesize DNA and RNA and to divide mitotically. It is induced by INTERLEUKINS; MITOGENS such as PHYTOHEMAGGLUTININS, and by specific ANTIGENS. It may also occur in vivo as in GRAFT REJECTION.

D010716 Phosphatidylinositols Derivatives of phosphatidic acids in which the phosphoric acid is bound in ester linkage to the hexahydroxy alcohol, myo-inositol. Complete hydrolysis yields 1 mole of glycerol, phosphoric acid, myo-inositol, and 2 moles of fatty acids.

D011493 Protein Kinase C An serine-threonine protein kinase that requires the presence of physiological concentrations of CALCIUM and membrane PHOSPHOLIPIDS. The additional presence of DIACYLGLYCEROLS markedly increases its sensitivity to both calcium and phospholipids. The sensitivity of the enzyme can also be increased by PHORBOL ESTERS and it is believed that protein kinase C is the receptor protein of tumor-promoting phorbol esters.

D011947 Receptors, Antigen, B-Cell IMMUNOGLOBULINS on the surface of B-LYMPHOCYTES. Their MESSENGER RNA contains an EXON with a membrane spanning sequence, producing immunoglobulins in the form of type I transmembrane proteins as opposed to secreted immunoglobulins (ANTIBODIES) which do not contain the membrane spanning segment.

D002118 Calcium A basic element found in nearly all tissues. It is a member of the alkaline earth family of metals with the atomic symbol Ca, atomic number 20, and atomic weight 40. Calcium is the most abundant mineral in the body and combines with phosphorus to form calcium phosphate in the bones and teeth. It is essential for the normal functioning of nerves and muscles and plays a role in blood coagulation (as factor IV) and in many enzymatic processes.
