Phospholipase C (Bacillus cereus) added to the incubation medium stimulated the steroidogenic activity of bovine adrenal zona fasciculata cell suspensions to a level similar to that induced by optimal concentration of ACTH. This effect was not related to an increase of cyclic AMP; it was calcium-dependent and was also induced by an other bacterial phospholipase C (from Clostridium perfringens) whereas phospholipases A2 and D were ineffective. Phospholipid metabolism was examined in these cells after radiolabeling with [14C]-glycerol or [32P]orthophosphate. Phospholipase C induced a very fast (5 seconds) increase in cellular [14C]-1,2-diacylglycerol followed by [32P] labeling of phosphatidic acid and phosphatidylinositol. These events preceded the stimulation of steroidogenesis which was detectable after 2 minutes of incubation. These observations suggest that activation of an endogenous phospholipase C activity may be considered as an early event in the response of bovine adrenocortical cells to steroidogenic effectors such as angiotensin II and acetylcholine.
