| Abstract | The agonist stimulation of a variety of cells results in the induction of specific lipid metabolism in nuclear membranes, supporting the hypothesis of an important role of the lipids in nuclear signal transduction. While the existence of a phosphatidylinositol cycle has been reported in cellular nuclei, little attention has been given to the metabolism of phosphatidylcholine in nuclear signaling. In the present study the metabolism of phosphatidylcholine in the nuclei of neuro-blastoma cells LA-N-1 was investigated. The incubation of LA-N-1 nuclei with radioactive choline, phosphocholine or CDP-choline led to the production of labelled phosphatidylcholine. The incorporation of choline and phosphocholine but not CDP-choline was enhanced in nuclei of TPA treated cells. Moreover the presence of choline kinase, phosphocholine cytidylyltransferase and phosphocholine transferase activities were detected in the nuclei and the TPA treatment of the cells stimulated the activity of the phosphocholine cytidylyltransferase. When cells prelabelled with [$^{3}$H]palmitic acid were stimulated with TPA in the presence of ethanol, an increase of labelled diacylglycerol and phosphatidylethanol in the nuclei was observed. Similarly, an increase of labelled diacylglycerol and phosphatidic acid but not of phosphatidylethanol occurred in [$^{3}$H]palmitic acid prelabelled nuclei stimulated with TPA in the presence of ethanol. However the production of phosphatidylethanol was observed when the nuclei were treated with TPA in the presence of ATP and GTPγS. The stimulation of [$^{3}$H]choline prelabelled nuclei with TPA also generated the release of free choline and phosphocholine. The results indicate the presence of PLD and probably PLC activities in LA-N-1 nuclei and the involvement of phosphatidylcholine in the production of nuclear lipid second messengers upon TPA stimulation of LA-N-1 cells. The correlation of the disappearance of phosphatidylcholine, the production of diacylglycerol and phosphatidic acid with the stimulation of phosphatidylcholine synthesis in nuclei of TPA treated LA-N-1 suggests the existence of a phosphatidylcholine cycle in these nuclei. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
