Endogenous "Time Bomb" - Mislocalized Phospholipase A2 as a Critical Mediator of Ultra-Rapid Mortality in Sepsis and Acute Lung Injury. [PDF]
Phospholipase A2 (PLA2), a dormant enzyme, becomes lethal when activated—collapsing lungs in minutes. Our dual therapy (DOPS + varespladib) boosts survival from 0% to >90% in sepsis/ALI. A breakthrough for acute lung injury treatment. ABSTRACT This study reveals that phospholipase A2 (PLA2), normally stable and nontoxic, can be activated specifically ...

Lysosomal phospholipase A2 (PLA2G15) is a ubiquitous enzyme uniquely characterized by a subcellular localization to the lysosome and late endosome. PLA2G15 has an acidic pH optimum, is calcium independent, and acts as a transacylase in the presence of N-acetyl-sphingosine as an acceptor.

An Experimental Study on Production of Egg Yolk Antibody(IgY) against Bee Venom
This study was carried out for production of neutral antibody to bee venom(anti-phospholipase A2 IgY). Hen layings were injected repeatedly with bee venom and phospholipase A2 with Freund's adjuvant.

Secretory phospholipase A2 (sPLA2) is a growing family of structurally related, disulfide-rich, low molecular weight, lipolytic enzymes with a His-Asp catalytic dyad. sPLA2s are distributed in a wide variety of vertebrate and invertebrate animals, plants, bacteria, and viruses, and there are 10 catalytically active sPLA2 isozymes in mammals.

Phospholipase A2 enzyme immobilization
A series of several supports were tested for phospholipase A2 enzyme (Lecitase 100 S- NOVO) immobilization. This system would find a number of industrial applications such as the selective hydrolysis of soybean lecithin to obtain lysophospholipids ...
