Phospholipase A2 Biochemistry [PDF]

open access: yesCardiovascular Drugs and Therapy, 2008
The phospholipase A(2) (PLA(2)) superfamily consists of many different groups of enzymes that catalyze the hydrolysis of the sn-2 ester bond in a variety of different phospholipids. The products of this reaction, a free fatty acid, and lysophospholipid have many different important physiological roles.

Mammalian Phospholipase A2: Phospholipase A2 Receptor

open access: yesBiological and Pharmaceutical Bulletin, 2004
The phospholipase A2 receptor (PLA2R) is a type I transmembrane glycoprotein related to the C-type animal lectin family such as the mannose receptor. PLA2R regulates a variety of biological responses elicited by secretory phospholipase A2s (sPLA2s). Group IB sPLA2 acts as an endogenous ligand to induce cell proliferation and lipid mediator production ...

Tumor‐Associated Glycan Exploits Adenosine Receptor 2A Signaling to Facilitate Immune Evasion

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study identifies Globo H ceramide (GHCer) as a novel immune checkpoint molecule that suppresses the activation of conventional T lymphocytes while promoting the differentiation and function of regulatory T cells. The immunosuppressive effects of GHCer are mediated through the activation of the A2AR/cAMP/PKA pathway, which involves its interactions

Regulation of phospholipase D [PDF]

open access: yesFEBS Letters, 1999
Structural studies of plant and bacterial members of the phospholipase D (PLD) superfamily are providing information about the role of the conserved HKD domains in the structure of the catalytic center and the catalytic mechanism of mammalian PLD isozymes (PLD1 and PLD2).

Photometric Determination of Phospholipase A [PDF]

open access: yesClinical Chemistry and Laboratory Medicine, 1986
A photometric method for the determination of phospholipase A is described, in which fatty acids are liberated from phosphatidylcholine and measured by a discontinuous enzymatic test. Optimal test conditions were evaluated using purified phospholipase A from human and porcine pancreas.

Small Extracellular Vesicles Orchestrate Cisplatin‐Induced Ototoxicity: Potential Biomarker and Targets Discovery

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Cisplatin causes reactive oxygen species accumulation, leading to apoptosis and inflammation in cochlear hair cells. Small extracellular vesicles primarily derived from the damaged hair cells likely contribute to cisplatin‐induced ototoxicity, carrying a variety of microRNAs and proteins.
