1 Tumor necrosis factor-alpha stimulates phosphatidylinositol breakdown by phospholipase C to coordinately increase the levels of diacylglycerol, free arachidonic acid and prostaglandins in an osteoblast (MC3T3-E1) cell line. Prostaglandins tumor necrosis factor Mus musculus
2 Therefore, we conclude that, in the MC3T3-E1 cell line, tumor necrosis factor-alpha activates a phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C (phosphatidylinositol inositolphosphohydrolase; EC 3.1.4.3) to release diacylglycerol, and increases the metabolism of diacylglycerol to liberate arachidonate for prostaglandin synthesis. Prostaglandins tumor necrosis factor Mus musculus
