PAF and hematopoiesis. VIII. Biosynthesis and metabolism of PAF by human bone marrow stromal cells.
Exp Hematol. 1996 Sep; 24(11):1327-32.EH

Abstract

Human bone marrow stromal cells were studied for their ability to synthesize and to metabolize platelet-activating factor (PAF), a lipidic compound with potent immunoregulatory properties. When stimulated with 2 microM calcium ionophore for 60 minutes, cultures of stromal cells increased their PAF production (3.52 +/- 0.91 ng/1 x 10(6) cells) compared with controls (0.82 +/- 0.13 ng/1 x 10(6) cells). Addition of exogenous lyso PAF (100 nM) and acetyl-CoA (100 microM) during calcium ionophore stimulation did not change the PAF production. The synthesis of PAF was not influenced by the concentration of albumin in the incubation buffer. The PAF from stromal cells exhibited a hexadecyl chain at the sn-1 position of the molecule, as determined by reverse-phase HPLC. While stromal cells contained low amounts of PAF acetylhydrolase activity and did not secrete it in the culture medium, they metabolized exogenous PAF with 1-alkyl-2-acyl-glycero-phosphocholine and neutral lipids as the major metabolic products. The present results are the first to demonstrate the synthesis and metabolism of PAF by human bone marrow stromal cells. These data suggest that they might be a source of the PAF found in the human bone marrow and/or might be important in the regulation of its levels. The role of PAF on the proliferation and functions of human hematopoietic cells deserves investigation.
