Critical role of phospholipase A2 group IID in age-related susceptibility to severe acute respiratory syndrome–CoV infection

Journal of Experimental Medicine, 2015
Vijay et al. show that an age-dependent increase of phospholipase A2 group IID (PLA2G2D) in the lung contributes to worse outcomes in mice infected with SARS-CoV.

Structure and function of lysosomal phospholipase A2 and lecithin:cholesterol acyltransferase

Nature Communications, 2015
Lysosomal phospholipase A2 (LPLA2) and lecithin:cholesterol acyltransferase (LCAT) belong to a structurally uncharacterized family of key lipid-metabolizing enzymes responsible for lung surfactant catabolism and for reverse cholesterol transport ...

Group XV phospholipase A2, a lysosomal phospholipase A2 [PDF]

Progress in Lipid Research, 2011
A phospholipase A₂ was identified from MDCK cell homogenates with broad specificity toward glycerophospholipids including phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylserine, and phosphatidylglycerol. The phospholipase has the unique ability to transacylate short chain ceramides.

Haemodialysis activates phospholipase A2 enzyme [PDF]

, 2017
Background Clinical and experimental evidence suggest that haemodialysis (HD) procedure is an inflammatory process. For the production of proinflammatory lipid mediators in many inflammatory reactions, the release of arachidonic acid by phospholipase A2 (

Cardiac myocyte-specific knock-out of calcium-independent phospholipase A2γ (iPLA2γ) decreases oxidized fatty acids during ischemia/reperfusion and reduces infarct size [PDF]

, 2016
Calcium-independent phospholipase A(2)γ (iPLA(2)γ) is a mitochondrial enzyme that produces lipid second messengers that facilitate opening of the mitochondrial permeability transition pore (mPTP) and contribute to the production of oxidized fatty acids ...
