چکیده

A novel class of potent human cytosolic phospholipase A(2) (GIVA PLA(2)) inhibitors was developed. These inhibitors were designed to contain the 2-oxoamide functionality and a free carboxyl group. Among the compounds tested, a long-chain 2-oxoamide containing L-gamma-norleucine was the most potent inhibitor, causing a 50% decrease in GIVA PLA(2) activity at 0.009 mole fraction.

Systemic and intrathecal effects of a novel series of phospholipase A2 inhibitors on hyperalgesia and spinal prostaglandin E2 release.

Phospholipase A(2) (PLA(2)) forms are expressed in spinal cord, and inhibiting spinal PLA(2) induces a potent antihyperalgesia. Here, we examined the antihyperalgesic effects after systemic and i.t. delivery of four compounds constructed with a common motif consisting of a 2-oxoamide with a hydrocarbon tail and a four-carbon tether. These molecules were characterized for their ability to block ...

Intracellular actions of group IIA secreted phospholipase A2 and group IVA cytosolic phospholipase A2 contribute to arachidonic acid release and prostaglandin production in rat gastric mucosal cells and transfected human embryonic kidney cells.

Gastric epithelial cells liberate prostaglandin E(2) in response to cytokines as part of the process of healing of gastric lesions. Treatment of the rat gastric epithelial cell line RGM1 with transforming growth factor-alpha and interleukin-1beta leads to synergistic release of arachidonate and production of prostaglandin E(2). Results with highly specific and potent phospholipase A(2) inhibito...

Calcium-independent phospholipase A2 mediates proliferation of human promonocytic U937 cells.

We have investigated the possible involvement of two intracellular phospholipases A(2), namely group VIA calcium-independent phospholipase A(2) (iPLA(2)-VIA) and group IVA cytosolic phospholipase A(2) (cPLA(2)alpha), in the regulation of human promonocytic U937 cell proliferation. Inhibition of iPLA(2)-VIA activity by either pharmacological inhibitors such as bromoenol lactone or methyl arachid...

Phosphodiesterase 4 inhibition of beta2-integrin adhesion caused by leukotriene B4 and TNF-alpha in human neutrophils.

Phosphodiesterase (PDE)4 inhibition attenuates neutrophilic inflammation in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. The objective of the present study was to examine the efficacy and mechanism by which PDE4 inhibition blocks adhesion of beta(2)-integrin to an endothelial counterligand. Neutrophils (polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNs)) were isolated from humans receiving no medication. Adhesion w...

Lipid droplet biogenesis induced by stress involves triacylglycerol synthesis that depends on group VIA phospholipase A2.

This work investigates the metabolic origin of triacylglycerol (TAG) formed during lipid droplet (LD) biogenesis induced by stress. Cytotoxic inhibitors of fatty acid synthase induced TAG synthesis and LD biogenesis in CHO-K1 cells, in the absence of external sources of fatty acids. TAG synthesis was required for LD biogenesis and was sensitive to inhibition and down-regulation of the expressio...
