Cross-linking of the Ag receptors on B cells induces DNA synthesis and proliferation. Butanol trap experiments suggest that one or more phospholipase D activities play a key role in this process. Although phosphatidylcholine-phospholipase D has been shown to play a central role in the transduction of proliferative responses for a wide variety of calcium-mobilizing receptors, we show that the Ag receptors are not coupled to this phospholipase. In addition, phosphatidylcholine-phospholipase D is not stimulated under conditions that mimic T cell-dependent B cell activation. In contrast, ATP, which inhibits surface Ig (sIg)-mediated DNA synthesis in murine B cells via P2-purinoceptors, activates phosphatidylcholine-phospholipase D. Phosphatidylcholine-phospholipase D is therefore associated with antiproliferative signal transduction in mature B cells, but it does not transduce early signals associated with sIg-mediated growth arrest or apoptosis in immature B cells. Mitogenic stimulation of sIg is, however, coupled to a novel nonphosphatidylcholine-hydrolyzing phospholipase D activity. The resultant sIg-generated phosphatidic acid, unlike the phosphatidylcholine-derived phosphatidic acid generated via the purinoceptors, is converted to diacylglycerol. These data provide the first evidence that while the novel sIg-coupled phospholipase D and resultant diacylglycerol generation may play a role in B cell survival and proliferation, phosphatidylcholine-phospholipase D may transduce, via phosphatidic acid, negative immunomodulatory signals in mature B lymphocytes.
