General description

Phosphatidic acid (PA) is a diacyl-glycerophospholipid. Two fatty acids and a phosphate group are attached to a glycerol molecule with the help of covalent bond through ester linkage. PA can be synthesized by the activity of the endogenous enzyme phospholipase D. This prime glycerophospholipid is present in the biomembrane. 08:0 PA (1,2-dioctanoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphate), a short chain PA is a cell-permeable analog of PA.

Application

08:0 PA has been used to induce differentiation in order to study the effects of phosphatidic acids (PAs) on the inhibition of adipogenic differentiation in 3T3-L1 preadipocytes. It may be used as a mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) activator in SGC-996 gall bladder carcinoma cells. It may also be used to study its effects on intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) in C6 rat glioma and L2071 mouse fibroblast cells.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Phosphatidic acid (PA) serves as a precursor for phosphatidylcholine or phosphatidylserine. It plays a functional role in influencing the membrane curvature and signaling. C8-PA/08:0 PA can block its association with soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor attachment protein receptor (SNAREs) to prevent the priming activity on isolated vacuoles. It also has the ability to change the proteolytic cleavage profile of Sec18.

Eukaryotic cell homeostasis requires transfer of cellular components among organelles and relies on membrane fusion catalyzed by SNARE proteins. Inactive SNARE bundles are reactivated by hexameric N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor, vesicle-fusing ATPase (Sec18/NSF)-driven disassembly that enables a new round of membrane fusion.
