Group III secreted phospholipase A2 transgenic mice spontaneously develop inflammation
PLA2 (phospholipase A2) group III is an atypical sPLA2 (secretory PLA2) that is homologous with bee venom PLA2 rather than with other mammalian sPLA2s. In the present paper, we show that endogenous group III sPLA2 (PLA2G3) is expressed in mouse skin and that Tg (transgenic) mice overexpressing human PLA2G3 spontaneously develop skin inflammation. Pla2g3-Tg mice over 9 months of age frequently d...
متن کاملGroup III secreted phospholipase A2 regulates epididymal sperm maturation and fertility in mice.
Although lipid metabolism is thought to be important for the proper maturation and function of spermatozoa, the molecular mechanisms that underlie this dynamic process in the gonads remains incompletely understood. Here, we show that group III phospholipase A2 (sPLA2-III), a member of the secreted phospholipase A2 (sPLA2) family, is expressed in the mouse proximal epididymal epithelium and that...
متن کاملHuman group III secreted phospholipase A2 promotes neuronal outgrowth and survival.
Human sPLA2-III [group III secreted PLA2 (phospholipase A2)] is an atypical sPLA2 isoenzyme that consists of a central group III sPLA2 domain flanked by unique N- and C-terminal domains. In the present study, we found that sPLA2-III is expressed in neuronal cells, such as peripheral neuronal fibres, spinal DRG (dorsal root ganglia) neurons and cerebellar Purkinje cells. Adenoviral expression of...
متن کاملGroup V phospholipase A2 induces leukotriene biosynthesis in human neutrophils through the activation of group IVA phospholipase A2.
We reported previously that exogenously added human group V phospholipase A(2) (hVPLA(2)) could elicit leukotriene B(4) (LTB(4)) biosynthesis in human neutrophils (Han, S. K., Kim, K. P., Koduri, R., Bittova, L., Munoz, N. M., Leff, A. R., Wilton, D. C., Gelb, M. H., and Cho, W. (1999) J. Biol. Chem. 274, 11881-11888). To determine the mechanism of the hVPLA(2)-induced LTB(4) biosynthesis in ne...
متن کاملPhospholipase A2 engineering. Structural and functional roles of the highly conserved active site residue aspartate-49.
Site-directed mutagenesis and high-resolution two-dimensional (2D) proton nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) were used to probe the structural and functional roles of a highly conserved residue, Asp-49, in the interfacial catalysis by bovine pancreatic phospholipase A2 (PLA2, overexpressed in Escherichia coli). According to crystal structures, the side chain carboxylate of Asp-49, along with the ...
