Abstract

The bioactive lipid sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P) is known to exert powerful biological effects through the interaction with various members of the endothelial differentiation gene (EDG) receptor family, recently renamed S1P receptors. In the present study, evidence is provided that differentiation of C2C12 myoblasts into myotubes was accompanied by profound changes of EDG/S1P receptor expression. Indeed, in differentiated cells a significant increase of EDG3/S1P3 together with a large decrease of EDG5/S1P2 expression at mRNA as well as protein level was detected. Moreover, S1P was capable to initiate the signalling pathways downstream to cytosolic Ca2+ increase in myotubes, similarly to that observed in myoblasts, whereas the signalling of the bioactive lipid to phospholipase D (PLD), but not that of bradykinin (BK) or lysophosphatidic acid (LPA), was found impaired in differentiated cells. Intriguingly, overexpression of EDG5/S1P2, but not EDG1/S1P1 or EDG3/S1P3, potentiated the efficacy of S1P to stimulate PLD, strongly suggesting a role for EDG5/S1P2 in the signalling to PLD. This view was also supported by the marked reduction of S1P-induced PLD activity in myoblasts loaded with antisense oligodeoxyribonucleotides (ODN) to EDG5/S1P2. Furthermore, overexpression of EDG5/S1P2 rescued the coupling of S1P signalling to PLD in C2C12 myotubes. Experimental evidence here provided supports the notion that EDG5/S1P2 plays a dominant role in the coupling of S1P to PLD in myoblasts and that the down-regulation of the receptor subtype is responsible for the specific uncoupling of S1P signalling to PLD in myotubes
