Abstract
Mammalian secreted phospholipases A(2) (sPLA2s) comprise a group of at least eight enzymes, including the recently identified group X sPLA2. A bacterial expression system was developed to produce human group X sPLA2 (hGX). Inhibition studies show that the sPLA2 inhibitor LY311727 binds modestly more tightly to human group IIA sPLA2 than to hGX and that a pyrazole-based inhibitor of group IIA sPLA2 is much less active against hGX. The phospholipid head group preference of vesicle-bound hGX was determined. hGX binds tightly to phosphatidylcholine vesicles, which is thought to be required to act efficiently on cells. Tryptophan 67 hGX makes a significant contribution to interfacial binding to zwitterionic vesicles. As little as 10 ng/ml hGX releases arachidonic acid for cyclooxygenase-2- dependent prostaglandin E(2) generation when added exogenously to adherent mammalian cells. In contrast, human group IIA, rat group V, and mouse group IB sPLA2s are virtually inactive at releasing arachidonate when added exogenously to adherent cells. Dislodging cells from the growth surface enhances the ability of all the sPLA2s to release fatty acids. Studies with CHO-K1 cell mutants show that binding of sPLA2s to glycosaminoglycans is not the basis for poor plasma membrane hydrolysis by group IB, IIA, and V sPLA2s.

Abstract
Cytosolic phospholipase A(2) (cPLA(2)) alpha plays critical roles in lipid mediator synthesis. We performed far-Western analysis and identified a 60-kDa protein (P60) that interacted with cPLA(2)alpha in a Ca(2+)-dependent manner. Peptide microsequencing revealed that purified P60 was identical to vimentin, a major component of the intermediate filament. The interaction occurred between the C2 domain of cPLA(2)alpha and the head domain of vimentin. Immunofluorescence microscopic analysis demonstrated that cPLA(2)alpha and vimentin colocalized around the perinuclear area in cPLA(2)alpha-overexpressing human embryonic kidney 293 cells following A23187 stimulation. Forcible expression of vimentin in vimentin-deficient SW13 cells augmented A23187-induced arachidonate release. Moreover, overexpression of the vimentin head domain in rat fibroblastic 3Y1 cells exerted a dominant inhibitory effect on arachidonate metabolism, significantly reducing A23187-induced arachidonate release and attendant prostanoid generation. These results suggest that vimentin is an adaptor for cPLA(2)alpha to function properly during the eicosanoid-biosynthetic process.

Abstract
A 14-year retrospective study was performed on 47 odontomas from the files of the 1st Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery at Nihon University School of Dentistry. Fifty-seven percent of the patients were male and 42.6% were female. The age distribution was 8 to 48 years with a mean age of 22 +/- 9.0 years. There were no particular symptoms associated with the odontomas, and 63.8% of our patients had no symptoms. However, 12 patients complained of swelling and 9 of pain. The tumor was found in the maxilla in 42.6% and in the mandible in 57.4%. According to the WHO histological type classification, 53.2% of the tumors were classified as compound odontoma and 46.8% as complex odontoma. The size of the tumor ranged from 5 mm to 42 mm in diameter. The average complex odontoma was much bigger than the average compound odontoma. Ghost cells were found 11 cases in our series. In addition, odontogenic epithelium was found in 16 cases. Twenty seven patients had impacted teeth in association with odontoma and 24 of the 27 teeth were removed at the time of surgical enucleation of the tumor, while 3 cases were treated by orthodontically assisted eruption. There was no recurrence in any of the studied cases.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE AND DESIGN We investigated the effect of a new class of COX-2 inhibitor, rutaecarpine, on the production of PGD2 in bone marrow derived mast cells (BMMC) and PGE2 in COX-2 transfected HEK293 cells. Inflammation was induced by lambda-carrageenan in male Splague-Dawley (SD) rats. MATERIAL Rutaecarpine (8,13-Dihydroindolo[2',3':3,4]pyridol[2,1-b]quinazolin -5(7H)-one) was isolated from the fruits of Evodia rutaecarpa. BMMC were cultured with WEHI-3 conditioned medium. c-Kit ligand and IL-10 were obtained by their expression in baculovirus. METHODS The generation of PGD2 and PGE2 were determined by their assay kit. COX-1 and COX-2 protein and mRNA expression was determined by BMMC in the presence of KL, LPS and IL-10. TREATMENT Rutaecarpine and indomethacin dissolved in 0.1% carboxymethyl cellulose was administered intraperitoneally and, 1 h later, lambda-carrageenan solution was injected to right hind paw of rats. Paw volumes were measured using plethysmometer 5 h after lambda-carrageenan injection. RESULTS Rutaecarpine inhibited COX-2 and COX-1 dependent phases of PGD2 generation in BMMC in a concentration-dependent manner with an IC50 of 0.28 microM and 8.7 microM, respectively. It inhibited COX-2-dependent conversion of exogenous arachidonic acid to PGE2 in a dose-dependent manner by the COX-2-transfected HEK293 cells. However, rutaecarpine inhibited neither PLA2 and COX-1 activity nor COX-2 protein and mRNA expression up to the concentration of 30 microM in BMMC, indicating that rutaecarpine directly inhibited COX-2 activity. Furthermore, rutaecarpine showed in vivo anti-inflammatory activity on rat lambda-carrageenan induced paw edema by intraperitoneal administration. CONCLUSION Anti-inflammatory activity of Evodia rutaecarpa could be attributed at least in part by inhibition of COS-2.

Abstract
We have recently reported that members of the heparin-binding group II subfamily of secretory PLA(2)s (sPLA(2)s) (types IIA and V), when transfected into 293 cells, released [(3)H]arachidonic acid (AA) preferentially in response to interleukin-1 (IL-1) and acted as "signaling" PLA(2)s that were functionally coupled with prostaglandin biosynthesis. Here we show that these group II subfamily sPLA(2)s and the type X sPLA(2) behave in a different manner, the former being more efficiently coupled with the prostaglandin-biosynthetic pathway than the latter, in 293 transfectants. Type X sPLA(2), which bound only minimally to cell surface proteoglycans, augmented the release of both [(3)H]AA and [(3)H]oleic acid in the presence of serum but not IL-1. Both types IIA and V sPLA(2), the AA released by which was efficiently converted to prostaglandin E(2), markedly augmented IL-1-induced expression of cyclooxygenase (COX)-2 in a heparin-sensitive fashion, whereas type X sPLA(2) lacked the ability to augment COX-2 expression, thereby exhibiting the poor prostaglandin E(2)-biosynthetic response unless either of the COX isozymes was forcibly introduced into type X sPLA(2)-expressing cells. Implication of phospholipid scramblase, an enzyme responsible for the perturbation of plasma membrane asymmetry, revealed that the scramblase-transfected cells became more sensitive to types IIA and V, but not X, sPLA(2), releasing both [(3)H]AA and [(3)H]oleic acid in an IL-1-independent manner. Thus, although phospholipid scramblase-mediated alteration in plasma membrane asymmetry actually led to the increased cellular susceptibility to the group II subfamily of sPLA(2)s, several lines of evidence suggest that it does not entirely mimic their actions on cells after IL-1 signaling. Interestingly, coexpression of type IIA or V, but not X, sPLA(2) and phospholipid scramblase resulted in a marked reduction in cell growth, revealing an unexplored antiproliferative aspect of particular classes of sPLA(2).

Abstract
An emerging body of evidence suggests that type IIA secretory phospholipase A(2) (sPLA(2)-IIA) participates in the amplification of the stimulus-induced cyclooxygenase (COX)-2-dependent delayed prostaglandin (PG)-biosynthetic response in several cell types. However, the biological importance of the ability of sPLA(2)-IIA to bind to heparan sulfate proteoglycan (HSPG) on cell surfaces has remained controversial. Here we show that glypican, a glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchored HSPG, acts as a physical and functional adaptor for sPLA(2)-IIA. sPLA(2)-IIA-dependent PGE(2) generation by interleukin-1-stimulated cells was markedly attenuated by treatment of the cells with heparin, heparinase or GPI-specific phospholipase C, which solubilized the cell surface-associated sPLA(2)-IIA. Overexpression of glypican-1 increased the association of sPLA(2)-IIA with the cell membrane, and glypican-1 was coimmunoprecipitated by the antibody against sPLA(2)-IIA. Glypican-1 overexpression led to marked augmentation of sPLA(2)-IIA-mediated arachidonic acid release, PGE(2) generation, and COX-2 induction in interleukin-1-stimulated cells, particularly when the sPLA(2)-IIA expression level was suboptimal. Immunofluorescent microscopic analyses of cytokine-stimulated cells revealed that sPLA(2)-IIA was present in the caveolae, a microdomain in which GPI-anchored proteins reside, and also appeared in the perinuclear area in proximity to COX-2. We therefore propose that a GPI-anchored HSPG glypican facilitates the trafficking of sPLA(2)-IIA into particular subcellular compartments, and arachidonic acid thus released from the compartments may link efficiently to the downstream COX-2-mediated PG biosynthesis.

Abstract
In view of the potential role of prostaglandins (PGs) in development of glomerular hyperfiltration leading to diabetic nephropathy, we studied the temporal relationship of the activity of cytosolic phospholipase A2 (cPLA2), a rate-limiting enzyme for eicosanoid biosynthesis, with hyperfiltration and the histological changes in glomeruli using OLETF rats, a model for non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM). Diabetes mellitus and associated histopathological changes, which developed spontaneously by 30-46 weeks after birth of OLETF rats, were accompanied by approximately 65% increase in glomerular cPLA2 activity that showed significant correlations with elevated plasma glucose levels and creatinine clearance. Moreover, mesangial cells cultured for 5 days with high glucose exhibited approximately 2-fold higher cPLA2 activity than those cultured with physiologic level of glucose. These data suggest that increased glomerular cPLA2 activity leads to production of PGs, which may promote the progression of early diabetic glomerular hyperfiltration and subsequent diabetic nephropathy.

Abstract
Types IIA and V secretory phospholipase A2 (sPLA2) are structurally related to each other and their genes are tightly linked to the same chromosome locus. An emerging body of evidence suggests that sPLA2-IIA plays an augmentative role in long-term prostaglandin (PG) generation in cells activated by proinflammatory stimuli; however, the mechanism underlying the functional regulation of sPLA2-V remains largely unknown. Here we show that sPLA2-V is more widely expressed than sPLA2-IIA in the mouse, in which its expression is elevated by proinflammatory stimuli such as lipopolysaccharide. In contrast, proinflammatory stimuli induced sPLA2-IIA in marked preference to sPLA2-V in the rat. Cotransfection of sPLA2-V with cyclooxygenase (COX)-2, but not with COX-1, into human embryonic kidney 293 cells dramatically increased the interleukin-1-dependent PGE2 generation occurring over a 24 h of culture period. Rat mastocytoma RBL-2H3 cells overexpressing sPLA2-V exhibited increased IgE-dependent PGD2 generation and accelerated beta-hexosaminidase exocytosis. These results suggest that sPLA2-V acts as a regulator of inflammation-associated cellular responses. This possible compensation of sPLA2-V for sPLA2-IIA in many, if not all, tissues may also explain why some mouse strains with natural disruption of the sPLA2-IIA gene exhibit few abnormalities during their life-spans.

Abstract
By analyzing human embryonic kidney 293 cell transfectants stably overexpressing various types of phospholipase A2 (PLA2), we have shown that polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) preferentially activate type IIA secretory PLA2 (sPLA2-IIA)-mediated arachidonic acid (AA) release from interleukin-1 (IL-1)-stimulated cells. When 293 cells prelabeled with 13H]AA were incubated with exogenous PUFAs in the presence of IL-1 and serum, there was a significant increase in [3H]AA release (in the order AA > linoleic acid > oleic acid), which was augmented markedly by sPLA2-IIA and modestly by type IV cytosolic PLA2 (cPLA2), but only minimally by type VI Ca2(+)-independent PLA2, overexpression. Transfection of cPLA2 into sPLA2-IIA-expressing cells produced a synergistic increase in IL-1-dependent [3H]AA release and subsequent prostaglandin production. Our results support the proposal that prior production of AA by cPLA2 in cytokine-stimulated cells destabilizes the cellular membranes, thereby rendering them more susceptible to subsequent hydrolysis by sPLA2-IIA.

Abstract
We identified a unique phospholipase A (PLA) with relatively low heparin affinity, which was distinguishable from the heparin-binding secretory PLA2s, in rat, mouse, and bovine brains and testes. The partially purified enzyme was Ca2+-independent at neutral pH but Ca2+-dependent at alkaline pH. It predominantly hydrolyzed phosphatidic acid (PA) in the presence of Triton X-100 and phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) in its absence. When rat brain-derived endogenous phospholipids were used as a substrate, the enzyme released saturated fatty acids in marked preference to unsaturated ones. Consistent with this observation, the enzyme hydrolyzed sn-1 ester bonds in the substrates about 2,000 times more efficiently than sn-2 ones, thereby acting like PLA1. The enzyme also exhibited weak but significant sn-1 lysophospholipase activity. On the basis of its limited tissue distribution, substrate head group specificity and immunochemical properties, this enzyme appears to be identical to the recently cloned PA-preferring PLA1.

Abstract
We compared the subtype diagnoses of schizophrenia (ICD-10) of 58 Japanese and 61 European psychiatrists matched for clinical experience using 10 case summaries. As a result, there are marked differences between Japanese and European psychiatrists in the mode of subtype diagnoses of schizophrenia rather than in the clinical pictures of the patients themselves; the hebephrenic type (F20.1) was more likely to be diagnosed by Japanese psychiatrists, while the paranoid type (F20.0) was more frequently diagnosed by European psychiatrists. Japanese psychiatrists take into account the patient's age at onset and the clinical course of the disease in identifying the subtype, while European psychiatrists tend to focus on the presenting symptoms, particularly paranoid symptoms.

Abstract
Several distinct phospholipase A2s (PLA2s) and two cyclooxygenases (COXs) were transfected, alone or in combination, into human embryonic kidney 293 cells, and their functional coupling during immediate and delayed prostaglandin (PG)-biosynthetic responses was reconstituted. Signaling PLA2s, i.e. cytosolic PLA2 (cPLA2) (type IV) and two secretory PLA2s (sPLA2), types IIA (sPLA2-IIA) and V (sPLA2-V), promoted arachidonic acid (AA) release from their respective transfectants after stimulation with calcium ionophore or, when bradykinin receptor was cotransfected, with bradykinin, which evoked the immediate response, and interleukin-1 plus serum, which induced the delayed response. Experiments on cells transfected with either COX alone revealed subtle differences between the PG-biosynthetic properties of the two isozymes in that COX-1 and COX-2 were favored over the other in the presence of high and low exogenous AA concentrations, respectively. Moreover, COX-2, but not COX-1, could turn on endogenous AA release, which was inhibited by a cPLA2 inhibitor. When PLA2 and COX were coexpressed, AA released by cPLA2, sPLA2-IIA and sPLA2-V was converted to PGE2 by both COX-1 and COX-2 during the immediate response and predominantly by COX-2 during the delayed response. Ca2+-independent PLA2 (iPLA2) (type VI), which plays a crucial role in phospholipid remodeling, failed to couple with COX-2 during the delayed response, whereas it was linked to ionophore-induced immediate PGE2 generation via COX-1 in marked preference to COX-2. Finally, coculture of PLA2 and COX transfectants revealed that extracellular sPLA2s-IIA and -V, but neither intracellular cPLA2 nor iPLA2, augmented PGE2 generation by neighboring COX-expressing cells, implying that the heparin-binding sPLA2s play a particular role as paracrine amplifiers of the PG-biosynthetic response signal from one cell to another.

Abstract
Mast cells exhibit a biphasic (immediate and delayed) eicosanoid-biosynthetic response after stimulation with particular cytokines or Fc epsilonRI (high affinity receptor for IgE) cross-linking. Treatment of rat serosal connective tissue mast cells (CTMC) with nerve growth factor (NGF) induced only the delayed phase of PGD2 generation that depended on inducible cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), but not constitutive COX-1, even though the subcellular distributions of these isoforms were similar. Experiments using several phospholipase A2 (PLA2) isozyme-specific probes and inhibitors suggested that both constitutive cytosolic PLA2 and inducible type IIA secretory PLA2 (sPLA2) are involved in NGF-initiated, COX-2-dependent, delayed PGD2 generation in rat CTMC. A type IIA sPLA2 inhibitor, but neither cytosolic PLA2 nor COX inhibitors, reduced, while adding exogenous type IIA sPLA2 augmented, NGF-induced COX-2 expression and its attendant PGD2 generation, indicating that the sPLA2-mediated increase in delayed PGD2 generation was attributable mainly to enhanced COX-2 expression. Type IIA sPLA2 and its close relative type V sPLA2 associated with fibroblastic cell surfaces increased NGF-induced COX-2 expression more efficiently than the soluble enzymes, revealing a particular juxtacrine sPLA2 presentation route. Surprisingly, catalytically inactive type IIA sPLA2 mutants, which were incapable of promoting arachidonic acid release from cytokine-primed cells, retained the ability to enhance COX-2 expression in CTMC, indicating that the COX-2-inducing activities of sPLA2 are independent of their catalytic functions.

Abstract
In response to bradykinin, phosphorylated MAP kinases (ERK-1 and ERK-2) were abundantly increased in HEK 293 cells, which overexpress the rat B2 kinin receptor. In a similar way des-Arg9-bradykinin stimulation of B1 kinin receptor-overexpressing HEK 293 cells caused activation of the same species of MAP kinase. Furthermore, nuclear translocation of transcription factor AP-1 was also found in the cells after stimulation with either agonist. PD98059, a MAP kinase kinase (MEK-1) inhibitor, blocked the agonist-induced AP-1 translocation as well as the phosphorylation of the MAP kinases. This communication provides the first evidence for both B1 and B2 kinin receptors mediating the MAP kinase signaling pathway to activate AP-1.

Abstract
Pretreatment of mice with lipopolysaccharide for 16 h enhanced the number of acetic acid-induced writhing reactions by 2 to 3-fold. In the peritoneal exudates at 10 min after acetic acid injection, 6-keto-prostaglandin F1alpha was detected as a major prostanoid, and this level increased by several-fold by the pretreatment with lipopolysaccharide. The writhing reaction and the prostaglandin formation were almost completely suppressed by indomethacin. However, the lipopolysaccharide-induced enhancement of writhing reaction and an increment of 6-keto-prostaglandin F1alpha level were diminished by the administration of cyclooxygenase-2-selective inhibitors, such as NS-398, nimesulide, or L-745337, to a level similar to the mice that did not receive lipopolysaccharide. Cyclooxygenase-2 protein in the exudates became detectable at 5-48 h after the lipopolysaccharide-pretreatment. These results suggest that the increased prostaglandin production by cyclooxygenase-2 could be responsible for enhancement of the acetic acid-induced writhing reaction by lipopolysaccharide pretreatment.

Abstract
We examined the relative contributions of five distinct mammalian phospholipase A2 (PLA2) enzymes (cytosolic PLA2 (cPLA2; type IV), secretory PLA2s (sPLA2s; types IIA, V, and IIC), and Ca2+-independent PLA2 (iPLA2; type VI)) to arachidonic acid (AA) metabolism by overexpressing them in human embryonic kidney 293 fibroblasts and Chinese hamster ovary cells. Analyses using these transfectants revealed that cPLA2 was a prerequisite for both the calcium ionophore-stimulated immediate and the interleukin (IL)-1- and serum-induced delayed phases of AA release. Type IIA sPLA2 (sPLA2-IIA) mediated delayed AA release and, when expressed in larger amounts, also participated in immediate AA release. sPLA2-V, but not sPLA2-IIC, behaved in a manner similar to sPLA2-IIA. Both sPLA2s-IIA and -V, but not sPLA2-IIC, were heparin-binding PLA2s that exhibited significant affinity for cell-surface proteoglycans, and site-directed mutations in residues responsible for their membrane association or catalytic activity markedly reduced their ability to release AA from activated cells. Pharmacological studies using selective inhibitors as well as co-expression experiments supported the proposal that cPLA2 is crucial for these sPLA2s to act properly. The AA-releasing effects of these sPLA2s were independent of the expression of the M-type sPLA2 receptor. Both cPLA2, sPLA2s-IIA, and -V were able to supply AA to downstream cyclooxygenase-2 for IL-1-induced prostaglandin E2 biosynthesis. iPLA2 increased the spontaneous release of fatty acids, and this was further augmented by serum but not by IL-1. Finally, iPLA2-derived AA was not metabolized to prostaglandin E2. These observations provide evidence for the functional cross-talk or segregation of distinct PLA2s in mammalian cells in regulating AA metabolism and phospholipid turnover.

Abstract
Fas-mediated apoptosis of human leukemic U937 cells was accompanied by increased arachidonic acid (AA) and oleic acid release from membrane glycerophospholipids, indicating phospholipase A2 (PLA2) activation. During apoptosis, type IV cytosolic PLA2 (cPLA2), a PLA2 isozyme with an apparent molecular mass of 110 kDa critical for stimulus-coupled AA release, was converted to a 78-kDa fragment with concomitant loss of catalytic activity. Cleavage of cPLA2 correlated with increased caspase-3-like protease activity in apoptotic cells and was abrogated by a caspase-3 inhibitor. A mutant cPLA2 protein in which Asp522 was replaced by Asn, which aligns with the consensus sequence of the caspase-3 cleavage site (DXXD downward arrowX), was resistant to apo-ptosis-associated proteolysis. Moreover, a COOH-terminal deletion mutant of cPLA2 truncated at Asp522 comigrated with the 78-kDa fragment and exhibited no enzymatic activity. Thus, caspase-3-mediated cPLA2 cleavage eventually leads to destruction of a catalytic triad essential for cPLA2 activity, thereby terminating its AA-releasing function. In contrast, the activity of type VI Ca2+-independent PLA2 (iPLA2), a PLA2 isozyme implicated in phospholipid remodeling, remained intact during apoptosis. Inhibitors of iPLA2, but neither cPLA2 nor secretory PLA2 inhibitors, suppressed AA release markedly and, importantly, delayed cell death induced by Fas. Therefore, we conclude that iPLA2-mediated fatty acid release is facilitated in Fas-stimulated cells and plays a modifying although not essential role in the apoptotic cell death process.

Abstract
Emerging evidence has suggested the pivotal role of mast cells in a host defense against bacterial infection. In this paper, we report that bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS) is a potent enhancer of the cytokine- and IgE-dependent delayed responses of IL-3-dependent mouse bone marrow-derived cultured mast cells (BMMC). LPS, although showing minimal effects, significantly augmented the c-kit ligand (KL)- or IgE-dependent expression of cyclooxygenase (COX)-2 and the attendant delayed PGD2 generation, with IL-10 and IL-4 acting as potentiating and inhibitory cytokines, respectively. The COX-2-inducing activity of LPS was mimicked by exogenous IL-1 beta. Assessment of endogenous cytokine induction revealed that IL-1 beta expression was stimulated by either LPS or exogenous IL-1 beta. IL-6 expression occurred in parallel with COX-2 expression. IL-10 expression, which lagged behind COX-2 expression, depended on exogenous IL-10, but not on LPS and IL-1 beta. Thus, LPS and IL-1 beta exhibited similar biological activities in terms of COX-2 and endogenous cytokine expression. However, adding an antibody against the type I IL-1 receptor to BMMC, which abrogated the effects of IL-1 beta, failed to neutralize the effects of LPS. These results suggest that LPS activates BMMC through the signal transduction pathway shared with exogenous IL-1 beta, rather than exerting its action indirectly via the production of endogenous IL-1 beta.

Abstract
We examined herein the functional linkage of enzymes regulating the initial, intermediate, and terminal steps of PG biosynthesis to provide PGs in rat peritoneal macrophages stimulated with LPS and/or A23187. Quiescent cells stimulated with A23187 produced thromboxane B2 (TXB2) in marked preference to PGE2 within 30 to 60 min (constitutive immediate response), which was mediated by preexisting cytosolic phospholipase A2 (cPLA2), cyclooxygenase-1 (COX-1), and TX synthase. Cells treated with LPS predominantly produced PGE2 during culture for 3 to 24 h (delayed response), where cPLA2 and secretory PLA2 functioned cooperatively with inducible COX-2, which was, in turn, coupled with inducible PGE2 synthase. Cells primed for 12 h with LPS and stimulated for 30 min with A23187 produced PGE2 in marked preference to TXB2 (induced immediate response), in which three inducible enzymes, cPLA2, COX-2, and PGE2 synthase, were functionally linked. Preferred coupling of the two inducible enzymes, COX-2 and PGE2 synthase, was further confirmed by the ability of LPS-treated cells to convert exogenous arachidonic acid to PGE2 optimally at a time when both enzymes were simultaneously induced. These results suggest that distinct PG biosynthetic enzymes display segregated functional coupling following different transmembrane stimulation events even when enzymes that catalyze similar reactions in vitro coexist in the same cells.

Abstract
Activation of rat fibroblastic 3Y1 cells with interleukin-1 beta (IL-1 beta) and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF alpha) induced delayed prostaglandin (PG) E2 generation over 6-48 h, which occurred in parallel with de novo induction of type IIA secretory phospholipase A2 (sPLA2) and cyclooxygenase (COX)-2, without accompanied by changes in the constitutive expression of type IV cytosolic PLA2 (cPLA2) and COX-1. Types V and IIC sPLA2s were barely detectable in these cells. Studies using an anti-type IIA sPLA2 antibody, sPLA2 inhibitors, and a type IIA sPLA2-specific antisense oligonucleotide revealed that IL-1 beta/TNF alpha-induced delayed PGE2 generation by these cells was largely dependent on inducible type IIA sPLA2, which was functionally linked to inducible COX-2. Delayed PGE2 generation was also suppressed markedly by the cPLA2 inhibitor arachidonoyl trifluoromethyl ketone (AACOCF3), which attenuated induction of type IIA sPLA2, but not COX-2, expression. AACOCF3 inhibited the initial phase of cytokine-stimulated arachidonic acid release, and supplementing AACOCF3-treated cells with exogenous arachidonic acid partially restored type IIA sPLA2 expression. These results suggest that certain metabolites produced by the cPLA2-dependent pathway are crucial for the subsequent induction of type IIA sPLA2 expression and attendant delayed PGE2 generation. Some lipoxygenase-derived products might be involved in this event, since IL-1 beta/TNF alpha-induced type IIA sPLA2 induction and PGE2 generation were reduced markedly by lipoxygenase, but not COX, inhibitors. In contrast, Ca2+ ionophore-stimulated immediate PGE2 generation was regulated predominantly by the constitutive enzymes cPLA2 and COX-1, even when type IIA sPLA2 and COX-2 were maximally induced after IL-1 beta/TNF alpha treatment, revealing functional segregation of the constitutive and inducible PG biosynthetic enzymes.

Abstract
We studied the influence of cancer cells on the LTB4 production by human polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN). The cancer cells were isolated from malignant pleural effusion specimens taken from two patients or from a peritoneal effusion specimen of one patient. While human PMN produced LTB4 following stimulation with A23187, the addition of cancer cells inhibited LTB4, 5-HETE and 12-HETE production by PMN in a cell number-dependent manner, while the cancer cell lines also showed a similar inhibition. The addition of lysate of the breast cancer cells also inhibited in a dose-dependent manner the production of LTB4 by PMN following stimulation with A23187. The addition of arachidonic acid completely reversed the inhibition of PMN-LTB4 production by the addition of the breast cancer cell lysates, thus suggesting inhibition at the phospholipase A2 level. The addition of this lysate to the partially purified human cytosolic PLA2 also inhibited the PLA2 activity. In contrast, the addition of lymphoma cells isolated from metastatic lymphnodes did not inhibit the LTB4 production from PMN. Since LTB4 is one of the important chemotactic factors for PMN and monocytes, these findings suggest that the inhibition of the PLA2 activity by the cancer cells thus results in a reduced production of LTB4 from PMN and contributes to a predisposition to develop severe infection in patients with advanced cancer.
