Background Activation of protein kinase C (PKC) is thought to be a critical step in ischemic preconditioning. Many receptor agonists activate PKC via stimulation of phospholipase C (PLC), which degrades membrane phospholipids to diacylglycerol (DAG), an important PKC cofactor. However, adenosine receptors, critical components of the prototypical preconditioning pathway, are not thought to couple to PLC in the cardiomyocyte. We therefore tested whether ischemic preconditioning or adenosine might instead activate phospholipase D (PLD) to produce DAG.Methods and Results PLD activity was measured in isolated rabbit hearts. Ischemic injury was evaluated in either isolated rabbit hearts' or dispersed myocytes. PLD activity doubled from a control level of 74.8+/-10.0 to 140.0+/-11.5 mu mol . min(-1) . g(-1) (P
