Lysophosphatidic acid

Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) is a bioactive lipid mediator that plays a crucial role in various physiological and pathological processes.
LPA is involved in cell proliferation, migration, survival, and differentiation, and has been implicated in the regulation of vascular, neural, and immune function.
It is produced by the enzymatic hydrolysis of phosphatidic acid and can signal through a family of G protein-coupled receptors.
LPA has been studied in the context of cancer, inflammation, fibrosis, and neurological disorders, among other areas.
Understanding the complex biology and therapeutic potential of LPA is an active area of research.

Lipid extracts were dissolved in 60 μl of chloroform/methanol (1:2, v/v) and subjected to mass spectrometric analysis using an LTQ Orbitrap XL instrument (Thermo Fisher Scientific) equipped with a TriVersa NanoMate (Advion Biosciences) as previously described [4 (link),7 (link)]. The 10:1-phase lipid extracts were analyzed by positive ion mode multiplexed FT MS analysis with scan ranges m/z 280-580 (monitoring lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC) and lysophosphatidylethanolamine (LPE) species) and m/z 500-1200 (monitoring sphingomyelin (SM), ceramide (Cer), diacylglycerol (DAG), PC, ether-linked PC (PC O-), phosphatidylethanolamine (PE), ether-linked phosphatidylethanolamine (PE O-) and triacylglycerol (TAG) species). The 2:1-phase lipid extracts were analyzed by negative ion mode multiplexed FT MS analysis with scan ranges m/z 370-660 (monitoring lysophosphatidic acid (LPA), lysophosphatidylserine (LPS) and lysophosphatidylinositol (LPI) species) and m/z 550-1700 (monitoring phosphatidic acid (PA), phosphatidylserine (PS), phosphatidylinositol (PI), phosphatidylglycerol (PG) and sulfatide (SHexCer) species). All FT MS spectra were acquired in profile mode using a target mass resolution of 100,000 (fwhm), activation of isolation waveforms, automatic gain control at 1e6, max injection time at 250 ms and acquisition of 2 µscans.

Cells were first starved by incubation for 24 hours in serum-free medium. After serum starvation for 24 h, the cells were treated with 44 µM ATX for 24 h, with or without the ATX inhibitor, HA 130 (1 µM), which was added 30 min before ATX treatment. After 24 hrs of incubation, cells were collected in RIPA Buffer (Thermo Fisher Scientific K.K., Kanagawa, Japan) containing protease inhibitors (Roche Diagnostics, Basel, Switzerland), sonicated, and centrifuged. Protein concentrations in the supernatant were determined by a BCA assay using a BCA Protein Assay Kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific K.K., Kanagawa, Japan). Proteins were boiled in Sample Buffer (Thermo Fisher Scientific K.K., Kanagawa, Japan). The same amounts of proteins were loaded onto 4–20% precast polyacrylamide gels (BIO-RAD Laboratories, Hercules, CA USA) and separated by SDS-PAGE. Protein bands were transferred to PVDF membranes (BIO-RAD Laboratories, Hercules, CA USA) and the membranes were immersed in Tris-Buffered Saline with Tween 20 (TBST) containing the first antibody. After washing, the membranes were immersed in TBST containing the second antibody and reacted with ECL substrate (Thermo Fisher Scientific K.K., Kanagawa, Japan). Protein bands were detected by ImageQuant LAS 4000 mini (GE Healthcare, Chicago, IL USA). Primary antibodies were: anti-αSMA (Sigma-Aldrich Co., LLC St. Louis, MO USA, 1:1000) and anti-fibronectin (1:1000; Abcam, Cambridge, MA, USA), anti-collagen type I (1:1000; Cell Signaling Technology, Danvers, MA, USA). HRP-conjugated second antibody (1:10,000) was purchased from Thermo Fisher Scientific (Waltham, MA USA). β-tubulin served as the loading control. All membranes were stripped of antibodies using WB Stripping solution and incubated with mouse monoclonal antibody β-tubulin (1:1000), and subsequently with H goat anti-mouse IgG antibody (1:2000). Densitometry of scanned films was performed using ImageJ 1.49 (NIH Bethesda, MD, USA), and results are expressed relative to the loading control (β-tubulin).

The total lipid extract was obtained by the classical Bligh-Dyer method [31 (link)] and purified through PTFE filters (Agilent, 5190–5265). To isolate lysophosphatidic (LPA) and phosphatidic (PA) acids, the total extract was separated by TLC (Fluka Silica gel TLC Al foils 10 × 10 cm) in hexane:acetone:acetic acid (40:50:2). Phospholipids remained in situ and were detected by staining with primulin (0.05% in acetone:water 80:20); a mixture of 1-oleoyl LPA (http://www.gzsopo.com/product/PNOALD-O353308.html. CAS: 655528-98-5; accessed on 31 December 2023), PA sodium salt (http://www.gzsopo.com/product/PNOMACKLIN-L864045.html. CAS 383907-53-7; accessed on 31 December 2023), and phosphatidylcholine (PC) was used as a standard. The appropriate silica gel sections were taken from the plate and transferred to Eppendorf tubes, where they were washed with a chloroform–methanol (1:1) mixture followed by an equivalent volume of water. The bottom fraction containing phospholipids was chosen after centrifugation. To separate phospholipids, the chloroform:methanol:acetone:water:acetic acid (6:2:8:1:1:1) system was utilized. The LPA and PA standards had Rfs of 0.4 and 0.7, respectively. To detect lipid groups, primulin staining was applied. Lipids from all four detected groups were isolated, extracted similarly to phospholipids, and treated in methanol with 1% H2SO4 for 30 min at 55 °C [32 (link)]. The FAMEs were then extracted with n-hexane and analyzed using GC-MS as described above.

The SVF was isolated from iWAT, C3H10T1/2 (CCL-226, American Type Culture Collection) cells, and 293T (CRL-3216, American Type Culture Collection) cells were maintained in DMEM supplemented with 10% FBS. To induce adipocyte differentiation, confluent SVF or C3H10T1/2 cells were cultured with media containing an adipogenic cocktail consisting of 2.5 μM or 1 μM dexamethasone (D4902, Sigma), 5 µg ml−1 insulin (I0516, Sigma), 500 μM isobutylmethylxanthine (I5879, Sigma) and 1 μM rosiglitazone (R2408, Sigma) for 2–3 days. Subsequently, the cells were switched to maintenance medium (culture medium supplemented with 5 µg ml−1 insulin). For Lats1/Lats2 deletion in mature adipocytes differentiated from iAKO SVF, cells were treated with 1 µM 4-hydroxytamoxifen (H7904, Sigma) for 10 days, starting at 7 days after adipocyte differentiation. C3H10T1/2 cells transduced with TAZ4SA-ERT2 retroviruses containing a puromycin-resistance cassette were subjected to puromycin (2 µg ml−1) selection to establish tamoxifen-inducible TAZ4SA cells. Next, 1 µM 4-hydroxytamoxifen (H6278, Sigma) was treated for 24 h to activate TAZ4SA-ERT2. For adenoviral expression, cells were infected with adenoviruses encoding TAZ4SA or GFP as described previously51 (link).
