Structured Review
![Inhibition of PA-stimulated myoblast proliferation and Akt and ERK1/2 phosphorylation by the lysoPA (LPA) receptor antagonist <t>VPC32183.</t> Myoblasts were serum-starved in DMEM supplemented with 0.1% BSA for 24 h. ( A ) The cells were preincubated for 30 min with 5 μM VPC32183 and were then challenged with 15 μM PA or 15 μM LPA for 16 h, as indicated. [ 3 H]Thymidine incorporation was measured as described in the Materials and Methods section. Results are expressed relative to the control value without agonist and are the mean ± SEM of 3 independent experiments performed in triplicate. (* p < 0.05, control versus PA or LPA-treated cells, # p < 0.05; PA or LPA-treated cells versus PA or LPA-treated cells in the presence of VPC32183). ( B ) Cells were treated as in panel A. Cell proliferation was determined by staining the myoblasts with crystal violet as described in the Materials and Methods section. Results are expressed relative to the control value without agonist and are the mean ± SEM of 3 independent experiments performed.

( C ) Cells were preincubated with 5 μM VPC32183 for 30 min and then treated with 15 μM PA for 5 min. Cell lysates were analyzed by western blotting as described in the Materials and Methods section. Phosphorylation of Akt and ERK1/2 was determined using specific antibodies against phospho-Akt (P-Akt) or phospho-ERK1/2 (P-ERK1/2). Equal loading of protein was monitored using specific antibodies to total Akt and total ERK1/2. Panel C shows a representative blot of three independent experiments.
