Swiss-3T3 cells were scrape-loaded with oncogenically activated p21ras protein. 10-20 min after introducing Val12p21ras into the cell, diacylglycerol levels were increased, but levels of inositol phosphates were unaltered. However, cellular choline and phosphocholine levels were increased with a similar time course to that observed for diacylglycerol production, suggesting that ras increases phosphatidylcholine turnover but not phosphatidylinositol turnover. Down-regulation of protein kinase C (by prolonged exposure to phorbol esters prior to scrape loading) blocked the ability of ras protein to elevate the levels of diacylglycerol, choline, and phosphocholine. Oncogenic ras can, therefore, cause a substantial increase in diacylglycerol (which correlates with increased phosphatidylcholine breakdown) in a protein kinase C-dependent fashion. Val12p21ras also increased arachidonic acid release, which was also dependent on protein kinase C activation. Induction of DNA synthesis by oncogenic ras was unaffected by inhibitors of prostaglandin synthesis, indicating that conversion of the released arachidonic acid to various prostaglandins is not required for stimulation of DNA synthesis by ras. We suggest that ras rapidly activates protein kinase C, which in turn activates a number of cellular signalling systems, leading to a sustained increase in diacylglycerol levels. This elevation of diacylglycerol could sustain protein kinase C activation over the 12-15 h required for initiation of DNA synthesis.
