Available evidence suggests the involvement of phospholipase D (PLD) in cell proliferation and survival. Phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI 3-kinase)/Akt and extracellular signal-regulated kinases (ERKs) are signalling molecules that have essential roles in cell proliferation and survival. We previously demonstrated that sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P)-induced PLD activation via the G-protein-coupled receptor endothelial differentiation gene (EDG) 3/S1P3 was involved in S1P-induced stimulation of PI 3-kinase and Akt. In the present study, we examined the involvement of two PLD isozymes, PLD1 and PLD2, in insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-I receptor tyrosine kinase-mediated stimulation of PI 3-kinase/Akt and ERKs. IGF-I and to a lesser degree S1P stimulated PI 3-kinase activity in Chinese hamster ovary cells overexpressing EDG3/S1P3. IGF-I-induced ERK phosphorylation was suppressed by butan-1-ol, but not butan-2-ol, whereas no effect of butanol was observed in IGF-I-induced Akt activation in S1P3-overexpressing Chinese hamster ovary cells. Overexpression of wild-type PLD1 and PLD2 substantially potentiated S1P-, but not IGF-I-, induced activation of PI 3-kinase and Akt, whereas overexpression of the catalytically inactive mutant of PLD1 or PLD2 did not affect the responses to either agonist. On the other hand, overexpression of wild-type PLD1 and PLD2 potentiated IGF-I- and, to much smaller extents, S1P-induced ERK stimulation. ERK activation by IGF-I as well as S1P was dependent on Ras, but Akt activation by IGF-I was not dependent on Ras. These results suggest that PLDs are involved in growth factor regulation of at least two signalling pathways, PI 3-kinase/Akt and ERKs, depending on the class of cell-surface receptors.

Most of clinical approved protein-based drugs or under in clinical trial have a profound impact in the treatment of critical diseases. The mammalian eukaryotic cells culture approaches, particularly the CHO (Chinese Hamster Ovary) cells are mainly used in the biopharmaceutical industry for the mass-production of therapeutic protein. Recent advances in CHO cell bioprocessing to yield recombinant proteins and monoclonal antibodies have enabled the expression of quality protein. The developments of cell lines are possible to upgrade specific productivity. As a result, it holds an interesting area for academic as well as industrial researchers around the world. This review will concentrate on the recent progress of the mammalian CHO cells culture technology and the future scope of further development for the mass-production of protein therapeutics.
