Arachidonic acid release is an important regulatory component of uterine contraction and parturition, and previous studies showed that lindane stimulates arachidonic acid release from myometrium. The present study partially characterized the enzyme activity responsible for lindane-induced arachidonic acid release in myometrial cells. Lindane released arachidonic acid from cultured rat myometrial cells in concentration- and time-dependent manners. This release was primarily from phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylinositol, and was independent of intracellular and extracellular calcium. In cells prelabeled with [3H]arachidonic acid, 85% of radiolabel was recovered as free arachidonate and only 5% was recovered as eicosanoids. Pretreatment with the antioxidants Cu, Zn-superoxide dismutase, alpha-tocopherol or Trolox did not significantly modify lindane-induced arachidonic acid release. Pretreatment of cells with the phosphatidylcholine-specific phospholipase C inhibitor D609, phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C inhibitor ET-18-OCH3, or an interrupter of the phospholipase D pathway (ethanol) did not suppress lindane-induced arachidonic acid release. Although these results are consistent with calcium-independent phospholipase A2 activation by lindane, the calcium-independent phospholipase A2 inhibitor bromoenol lactone failed to inhibit lindane-induced arachidonic acid release in myometrial cells, even though bromoenol lactone effectively blocked arachidonic acid release in neutrophils. These results suggest that myometrial cells express a novel, previously unidentified phospholipase that is arachidonate-specific, calcium-independent, insensitive to bromoenol lactone, insensitive to reactive oxygen species activation, shows substrate preference for phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylinositol, and is stimulated by lindane. Moreover, the data show that the overwhelming majority of arachidonic acid released remains as arachidonate, but that lindane does not significantly inhibit metabolism of arachidonate to eicosanoids.
