Secretory Phospholipase A2 in Patients With Sickle Cell Disease Hospitalized for Vaso‐Occlusive Pain Episodes

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, Volume 73, Issue 10, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Secretory phospholipase A2 (sPLA2) is an inflammatory mediator linked to acute chest syndrome (ACS) in sickle cell disease (SCD), a serious complication that can develop during an acute vaso‐occlusive pain episode (VOE). Plasma sPLA2 levels have been proposed as a potential biomarker for predicting ACS onset.

Gastroprotective Effect of Cochinchina momordica Seed Extract in Nonsteroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drug-Induced Acute Gastric Damage in a Rat Model

Gut and Liver, 2014
Background/AimsThe major compounds of Cochinchina momordica seed extract (SK-MS10) include momordica saponins. We report that the gastroprotective effect of SK-MS10 in an ethanol-induced gastric damage rat model is mediated by suppressing proinflammatory

Toxicity Of Phospholipases A2 D49 (6-1 And 6-2) And K49 (bj-vii) From Bothrops Jararacussu Venom

, 2015
Purified phospholipase A2 (PLA2) enzymes from Bothrops jararacussu snake venom were examined to evaluate NIH 3T3 and COS7 fibroblast cytotoxicity, as well as muscle myotoxic and inflammatory activities.

Impaired Hepatic Glucose Metabolism Is Associated With Glucose Intolerance in Mice Carrying α2 Isoform Na,K‐ATPase Mutation

Acta Physiologica, Volume 242, Issue 10, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim The Na,K‐ATPase is important for energy demanding cellular processes, including essential components of substrate metabolism and metabolic flexibility. Mice heterozygous for the hemiplegic migraine‐related mutation, G301R, of the Na,K‐ATPase α2 isoform (α2+/G301R) demonstrated altered metabolism in the heart.

Neuromuscular effects of three phospholipases A2 from the venom of the Australian king brown snake Pseudechis australis

, 1989
Three single chain phospholipases A2 (Pa-10A, Pa-11 and Pa-13) isolated from Australian king brown snake (Pseudechis australis) venom were tested for effects on neuromuscular transmission and muscle contractility on chick biventer cervicis and mouse ...

The lung is more than an organ of gas exchange: immunocompetency, platelets and implications for drug discovery

British Journal of Pharmacology, Volume 183, Issue 20, Page 5999-6006, October 2026.
Abstract The lungs have for a long time been recognised as having pharmacological significance as a specific organ to modulate the pharmacokinetics of endogenous substances needed to maintain homeostasis. The lungs are therefore the site of action of certain drugs that act on these homeostatic processes, resulting in systemic effects on the ...

Transcriptomic and Metabolomic Profiling Identifies a Core Gene–Metabolite Axis Driving African Swine Fever Virus Replication in the Soft Tick Ornithodoros lahorensis

The FASEB Journal, Volume 40, Issue 17, 15 September 2026.
Transcriptomic and metabolomic profiling of Ornithodoros lahorensis during African swine fever virus (ASFV) infection reveals that ASFV rewires host purine/pyrimidine metabolism, lipid metabolism, and energy metabolism. A core gene‐metabolite regulatory axis consisting of 12 key genes and 8 signature metabolites is identified to support viral genome ...

Oxadiazolone‐Triazole Derivatives as a New Scaffold for Modulation of Angiotensin II‐Induced Vascular Contraction

ChemMedChem, Volume 21, Issue 17, 14 September 2026.
A novel series of candidate AT1 receptor antagonists based on oxadiazolone‐triazole scaffolds was designed and synthesized. Most compounds reduced angiotensin II‐induced vascular contraction in an initial biological screening, with compound 7f emerging as the most active derivative.
