Here, we investigated the involvement of the arachidonate pathway in the heparin-stimulated release of HGTL activity from rat hepatocytes. Heparin increased phospholipase (PL) A_2 activity in the hepatocytes in a time- and dose- dependent manner. The stimulatory effect of heparin on PLA_2 activity was markedly decreased by incubation with protein tyrosine kinase (TK) inhibitors. It was also observed that heparin rapidly increased leukotriene (LT) B_4 content in the hepatocytes. In addition, the stimulatory release of HTGL activity by heparin was suppressed by cytosolic PLA_2, and 5-lipoxygenase, but not by cyclooxygenase and thromboxane (TX) synthetase inhibitors or a TXA_2 receptor antagonist. These findings suggest that the heparin-stimulated release of HTGL activity from hepatocytes is partly due to an action involving increases in cytosolic PLA_2 activity and LTB_4 production with associated of TK activity.}, pages = {1--23}, title = {初代培養ラット肝細胞系における肝性リパーゼ放出機構の解析に関する研究}, volume = {24}, year = {2006} }
