In the present study, the interaction of the phospholipid mediator platelet-activating factor (PAF) with rat hepatocytes in primary culture was examined. Following exposure to hepatocytes, exogenous [3H]alkyl-PAF was metabolized rapidly to [3H]lyso-PAF, the content of which was raised in the outer leaflet of the plasma membrane within the initial 5 min of incubation. Thereafter [3H]lyso-PAF was translocated into cells with concomitant reacylation to [3H]alkyl-acyl-glycerophosphocholine. A portion of untransformed [3H]PAF accumulated in the outer leaflet, and only a small amount of the [3H]PAF was translocated into the inner leaflet of the plasma membrane. Detectable levels of [3H]lyso-PAF were found in the medium of hepatocyte cultures at all times of incubation. These findings suggest that at least a portion of the cellular PAF-acetylhydrolase (PAF-AH) activity is located in the outer leaflet of the plasma membrane and can be secreted into the medium. Indeed, rat hepatocytes in culture released PAF-AH into the medium in a time-dependent fashion, Incubation of hepatocytes with exogenous PAF increased secretion of PAF-AH, whereas lyso-PAF and the nonhydrolyzable analog methylcarbamyl-PAF significantly reduced secretion. The structurally related PAF receptor antagonist CV 3988 markedly inhibited the activity of PAF-AH and also diminished its release by hepatocytes. In contrast, BN 50739 amd WEB 2170, thienotriazolodiazepine PAF receptor antagonists, did not affect the PAF-AH activity, but increased its secretion by the cells. A full-length 3.8-kb mRNA encoding the cell surface PAF receptor was absent in hepatocytes as indicated by Northern blot analysis using the rat PAF receptor cDNA, whereas PAF receptor mRNA was readily detected in Kupffer cells. Upon incubation with hepatocytes, PAF induced tyrosine phosphorylation of proteins with molecular masses of 120-130 and 160-180 kDa and dephosphorylation of 80-90-kDa proteins; these responses were not inhibited by WEB 2170 and BN 50739. The protein tyrosine kinase inhibitor genistein abolished the release of free arachidonic acid, suggesting a crucial role for tyrosine phosphorylation in PAF-induced phospholipase A2 activation in rat hepatocytes. Taken together, our data indicate that the interaction of PAF with rat hepatocytes is dependent upon its metabolism, involves protein tyrosine phosphorylation/dephosphorylation and arachidonic acid release, and does not involve the heteromeric G-protein-coupled PAF receptor which has been characterized in Kupffer cells. This metabolically regulated mechanism for PAF action on hepatocytes may be of potential biological importance in the liver under normal and pathological conditions.
