We examined the mechanism by which secretory group V phospholipase A2 (gVPLA2) secreted from stimulated epithelial cells activates eosinophil adhesion to ICAM-1 surrogate protein and secretion of leukotriene (LT)C4. Exogenous human group V PLA2 (hVPLA2) caused an increase in surface CD11b expression and focal clustering of this integrin, which corresponded to increased
2 integrin-mediated adhesion. Human IIaPLA2, a close homolog of hVPLA2, or W31A, an inactive mutant of hVPLA2, did not affect these responses. Exogenous lysophosphatidylcholine but not arachidonic acid mimicked the
2 integrin-mediated adhesion caused by hVPLA2 activation. Inhibition of hVPLA2 with MCL-3G1, a mAb against gVPLA2, or with LY311727, a global secretory phospholipase A2 (PLA2) inhibitor, attenuated the activity of hVPLA2; trifluoromethylketone, an inhibitor of cytosolic group IVA PLA2 (gIVA-PLA2), had no inhibitory effect on hVPLA2-mediated adhesion. Activation of
2 integrin-dependent adhesion by hVPLA2 did not cause ERK1/2 activation and was independent of gIVA-PLA2 phosphorylation. In other studies, eosinophils cocultured with epithelial cells were stimulated with FMLP/cytochalasin B (FMLP/B) and/or endothelin-1 (ET-1) before LTC4 assay. FMLP/B alone caused release of LTC4 from eosinophils, which was augmented by coculture with epithelial cells activated with ET-1. Addition of MCL-3G1 to cocultured cells caused
50% inhibition of LTC4 secretion elicited by ET-1, which was blocked further by trifluoromethylketone. Our data indicate that hVPLA2 causes focal clustering of CD11b and
2 integrin adhesion by a novel mechanism that is independent of arachidonic acid synthesis and gIVA-PLA2 activation. We also demonstrate that gVPLA2, endogenously secreted from activated epithelial cells, promotes secretion of LTC4 in cocultured eosinophils.
