Sphingosine 1-phosphate, a sphingolipid metabolite, was previously reported to increase DNA synthesis in quiescent Swiss 3T3 fibroblasts and to induce transient increases in intracellular free calcium (Zhang, H., Desai, N. N., Olivera, A., Seki, T., Brooker, G., and Spiegel, S. (1991) J. Cell Biol. 114, 155-167). In the present study, pretreatment of Swiss 3T3 fibroblasts with pertussis toxin reduced sphingosine 1-phosphate-induced DNA synthesis. Sphingosine 1-phosphate decreased cellular cAMP levels and also caused a drastic decrease in isoproterenol- and forskolin-stimulated cAMP accumulation. Pertussis toxin treatment prevented the inhibitory effect of sphingosine 1-phosphate on cAMP accumulation, suggesting that a pertussis toxin-sensitive Gi or Gi-like protein may be involved in sphingosine 1-phosphate-mediated inhibition of cAMP accumulation. Mitogenic concentrations of sphingosine 1-phosphate stimulated production of inositol phosphates which was inhibited by pertussis toxin, while the response to bradykinin was not affected. Furthermore, calcium release induced by sphingosine 1-phosphate, but not by bradykinin, was also attenuated by pertussis toxin treatment. However, sphingosine 1-phosphate-induced phosphatidic acid accumulation was unaffected by pertussis toxin. The increase in specific DNA binding activity of activator protein-1, which was induced by treatment of quiescent Swiss 3T3 fibroblasts with sphingosine 1-phosphate, was also inhibited by pertussis toxin. These results suggest that some of the sphingosine 1-phosphate-induced signaling pathways are mediated by G proteins that are substrates for pertussis toxin.

D015398 Signal Transduction The intracellular transfer of information (biological activation/inhibition) through a signal pathway. In each signal transduction system, an activation/inhibition signal from a biologically active molecule (hormone, neurotransmitter) is mediated via the coupling of a receptor/enzyme to a second messenger system or to an ion channel. Signal transduction plays an important role in activating cellular functions, cell differentiation, and cell proliferation. Examples of signal transduction systems are the GAMMA-AMINOBUTYRIC ACID-postsynaptic receptor-calcium ion channel system, the receptor-mediated T-cell activation pathway, and the receptor-mediated activation of phospholipases. Those coupled to membrane depolarization or intracellular release of calcium include the receptor-mediated activation of cytotoxic functions in granulocytes and the synaptic potentiation of protein kinase activation. Some signal transduction pathways may be part of larger signal transduction pathways; for example, protein kinase activation is part of the platelet activation signal pathway.
