Abstract
OBJECTIVE Secreted phospholipase A2 Group IB (sPLA2GIB) regulates the release of arachidonic acid, prostaglandins, and other inflammatory lipid mediators. Although it has been well involved in extensive inflammatory diseases, its specific mechanism in chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) remains unclear. In this study, we investigated the role of sPLA2GIB in the pathophysiology of CRSwNP. METHODS Quantitative PCR, immunofluorescence staining, western blotting, and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) were used to analyze the expression of sPLA2s, phospholipase A2 receptor (PLA2R), and prostaglandin D2 (PGD2) in nasal samples. Human nasal epithelial cells (HNECs) were cultured at an air-liquid interface (ALI) and stimulated with various cytokines. The human mast cell line HMC-1 was stimulated with sPLA2GIB, and the expression of PGD2 and cytokines in the culture supernatant was detected by ELISA. RESULTS The mRNA and protein levels of sPLA2GIB were significantly higher in eosinophilic CRSwNP than in control tissues. sPLA2GIB was predominantly expressed in the nasal epithelial cells. PLA2R mRNA and protein levels were upregulated in both eosinophilic and non-eosinophilic CRSwNP compared with the control groups. IL-4, IL-13, TNF-α, and IL-1β upregulated the expression of sPLA2GIB in ALI-cultured HNECs. sPLA2GIB induced PGD2 and IL-13 production in HMC-1 cells in a hydrolytic activity-independent manner. PGD2 protein expression was elevated in tissue homogenates of eosinophilic CRSwNP, and PGD2 upregulated the expression of IL-13 in HMC-1 cells. CONCLUSION Increased secretion of sPLA2GIB by epithelial cells may promote eosinophilic inflammation in CRSwNP by enhancing PGD2 and IL-13 production in mast cells via binding to PLA2R.

Abstract
Pancreatic phospholipase A(2) (PLA(2)) plays an important role in cellular homeostasis as well as in the process of carcinogenesis. Effects of metallo-drugs used as chemotherapeutics on the activity of this enzyme are unknown. In this work, the interaction between porcine pancreatic PLA(2) and two selected transition metal complexes--tetrachloro(bipyridine) platinum(IV) ([PtCl(4)(bipy)]) and dichloro (bipyridine) ruthenium(III)chloride ([RuCl(2)(bipy)(2)]Cl)--was studied. Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionisation time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) and fluorescence spectroscopy have been used to analyse the enzyme activity in the absence and presence of metal complexes and to verify potential binding of these drugs to the enzyme. The tested metal complexes decreased the activity of phospholipase A(2) in an uncompetitive inhibition mode. A binding of the ruthenium complex near the active site of the enzyme could be evidenced and possible modes of interaction are discussed.

Abstract
Secretory phospholipase A(2) (sPLA(2)), abundantly expressed in various cells including fibroblasts, is able to promote proliferation and migration. Degradation of collagenous extracellular matrix by matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) plays a role in the pathogenesis of various destructive disorders, such as rheumatoid arthritis, tumor invasion, and metastasis. Here we show that group IB PLA(2) increased pro-MMP-2 activation in NIH3T3 fibroblasts. MMP-2 activity was stimulated by group IB PLA(2) in a dose- and time-dependent manner. Consistent with MMP-2 activation, sPLA(2) decreased expression of type IV collagen. These effects are due to the reduction of tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-2 (TIMP-2) and the activation of the membrane type1-MMP (MT1-MMP). The decrease of TIMP-2 levels in conditioned media and the increase of MT1-MMP levels in plasma membrane were observed. In addition, treatment of cells with decanoyl Arg-Val-Lys-Arg-chloromethyl ketone, an inhibitor of pro-MT1-MMP, suppressed sPLA(2)-mediated MMP-2 activation, whereas treatment with bafilomycin A1, an inhibitor of H(+)-ATPase, sustained MMP-2 activation by sPLA(2). The involvement of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) and Akt in the regulation of MMP-2 activity was further suggested by the findings that PI3K and Akt were phosphorylated by sPLA(2). Expression of p85alpha and Akt mutants, or pretreatment of cells with LY294002, a PI3K inhibitor, attenuated sPLA(2)-induced MMP-2 activation and migration. Taken together, these results suggest that sPLA(2) increases the pro-MMP-2 activation and migration of fibroblasts via the PI3K and Akt-dependent pathway. Because MMP-2 is an important factor directly involved in the control of cell migration and the turnover of extracellular matrix, our study may provide a mechanism for sPLA(2)-promoted fibroblasts migration.

Abstract
Several reports suggest that duodenogastroesophageal reflux may produce esophagitis, Barrett's esophagus and esophageal carcinoma. And it is well known that the incidence of adenocarcinoma arising from Barrett's esophagus has been increasing during the past decade. On the other hand, cyclooxygenase-2 and prostaglandins, produced by the catalytic reaction of cyclooxygenase-2, are considered to relate to carcinogenesis of the digestive tract and other malignant tumors. Recent reports suggest that cyclooxygenase-2 is induced in Barrett's esophagus and esophageal carcinoma. The purpose of this study is to investigate the reaction of cyclooxygenase-2 expression and prostaglandinE2 production on normal human esophageal epithelial cells cultured with gastroduodenal components. Normal human esophageal epithelial cells were cultured with chenodeoxycholic acid, trypsin and in acidic condition, individually and with different combinations of these three factors. After culturing, cyclooxygenase-2 expression in the cells and amount of prostglandinE2 in culture media was evaluated by immunoblotting and enzyme-immunoassay, respectively after culturing the cells. Cyclooxygenase-2 expression was up-regulated by bile acid and prostaglandinE2 production was enhanced by bile acid with trypsin, acidic condition or both of these components, without a synergistic effect on cyclooxygenase-2 expression. Production of prostaglandinE2 via these factors was suppressed by the cyclooxygenase-2 selective inhibitor JTE-522. The results suggest that duodenogastroesophageal reflux may induce cyclooxygenase-2 expression and prostaglandinE2 production in esophageal epithelial cells, cyclooxygenase-2 specific inhibitors may have a chemopreventive effect on esophageal carcinoma.

Abstract
Phospholipase A(2) (PLA(2)) genes expressed in the venom glands of the sea snake, Laticauda semifasciata, were investigated. Both mRNAs, encoding group IA (without a pancreatic loop) and group IB (with pancreatic loop), were detected from venom glands by Northern blot hybridization analysis and RT-PCR. The results of quantitative PCR analysis indicated that the expression amount of group IA genes was around 100-300 times greater than that of group IB genes. Sequence analysis of 5'-upstream regions and a reporter gene assay of the genes (groups IA and IB) previously cloned showed that the functional sequence (411 bp) was inserted in the 5'-flanking region of the group IA PLA(2) genes. It seemed that the contribution of the inserted sequence to the amount of transcribed mRNAs was greater than that of number of genes present in the genome. Comparative analysis of the 5'-flanking sequences from several snake genes encoding toxic PLA(2)s revealed that this sequence was probably inserted into an ancestral gene of PLA(2) with a pancreatic loop. After the duplication of the gene, which contained the inserted sequence, the PLA(2) gene without a pancreatic loop evolved from one of the duplicate genes. This inserted sequence might determine the future of the genes expressed in the venom glands.

Abstract
Mammalian cells contain several structurally different phospholipase (PLA2) enzymes that exhibit distinct localisation, function and mechanisms of regulation. PLA2 isozymes have been postulated to play significant roles in the parturition process. Both secretory and cytosolic PLA2 isozymes have been identified in human gestational tissues, and there is differential expression of these PLA2 isozymes in human fetal membranes and placenta obtained at preterm and term. The aims of this commentary are: (1) to review recent data concerning the expression, role and regulation of PLA2 isozymes in human gestational tissues; and (2) to present novel data demonstrating the regulation of PLA2 isozymes in human gestational tissues by nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-kappaB) and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR)-g.

Abstract
In rat mesangial cells, exogenously added secreted phospholipases A2 (sPLA2s) potentiate the expression of pro-inflammatory sPLA2-IIA first induced by cytokines like tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNFalpha) and interleukin-1 beta. The transcriptional pathway mediating this effect is, however, unknown. Because products of PLA2 activity are endogenous activators of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha (PPAR alpha, we postulated that sPLA2s mediate their effects on sPLA2-IIA expression via sPLA2 activity and subsequent PPAR alpha activation. This study shows that various sPLA2s, including venom enzymes, human sPLA2-IIA, and wild-type and catalytically inactive H48Q mutant of porcine pancreatic sPLA2-IB, enhance the TNF alpha-induced sPLA2-IIA expression at the mRNA and protein levels. In cells transfected with luciferase sPLA2-IIA promoter constructs, sPLA2s are active only when the promoter contains a functional PPRE-1 site. The effect of exogenous sPLA2s is also blocked by the PPAR alpha inhibitor MK886. Interestingly, the expression of sPLA2-IIA induced by TNF alpha alone is also attenuated by MK886, by the sPLA2-IIA inhibitor LY311727, by heparinase, which prevents the binding of sPLA2-IIA to heparan sulfate proteoglycans, and by the specific cPLA2-alpha inhibitor pyrrolidine-1. Together, these data indicate that sPLA2-IIA released from mesangial cells by TNF alpha stimulates its own expression via an autocrine loop involving cPLA2 and PPAR alpha. This signaling pathway is also used by exogenously added sPLA2s including pancreatic sPLA2-IB and is distinct from that used by TNF alpha.

Abstract
The induction of inducible NO synthase (iNOS) by group IIA phospholipase A(2) (PLA(2)) involves the stimulation of a novel signaling cascade. In this study, we demonstrate that group IIA PLA(2) up-regulates the expression of iNOS through a novel pathway that includes M-type secretory PLA(2) receptor (sPLA(2)R), phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K), and Akt. Group IIA PLA(2) stimulated iNOS expression and promoted nitrite production in a dose- and time-dependent manner in Raw264.7 cells. Upon treating with group IIA PLA(2), Akt is phosphorylated in a PI3K-dependent manner. Pretreatment with LY294002, a PI3K inhibitor, strongly suppressed group IIA PLA(2)-induced iNOS expression and PI3K/Akt activation. The promoter activity of iNOS was stimulated by group IIA PLA(2), and this was suppressed by LY294002. Transfection with Akt cDNA resulted in Akt protein overexpression in Raw264.7 cells and effectively enhanced the group IIA PLA(2)-induced reporter activity of the iNOS promoter. M-type sPLA(2)R was highly expressed in Raw264.7 cells. Overexpression of M-type sPLA(2)R enhanced group IIA PLA(2)-induced promoter activity and iNOS protein expression, and these effects were abolished by LY294002. However, site-directed mutation in residue responsible for PLA(2) catalytic activity markedly reduced their ability to production of nitrites and expression of iNOS. These results suggest that group IIA PLA(2) induces nitrite production by involving of M-type sPLA(2)R, which then mediates signal transduction events that lead to PI3K/Akt activation.

Abstract
The phospholipase A2 receptor (PLA2R) is a type I transmembrane glycoprotein related to the C-type animal lectin family that includes the mannose receptor. PLA2R regulates a variety of biological responses elicited by specific types of secretory PLA2s (sPLA2s). Group IB sPLA2 (sPLA2-IB) acts as an endogenous PLA2R ligand to induce cell proliferation, cell migration, and lipid mediator production. Analysis of PLA2R-deficient mice has suggested a potential role of the sPLA2-IB/PLA2R pathway in the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines in endotoxic shock. PLA2R is also involved in the clearance of sPLA2s, including group X sPLA2 (sPLA2-X) and a particular type of snake venom sPLA2, and clearance suppresses their potent enzymatic activities. In the circulation, the soluble form of PLA2R is constitutively present as anendogenous inhibitor of sPLA2s. This review will focus on recent findings on the roles of PLA2R in regulating sPLA2 functions and summarize what is known about the otherbinding proteins for mammalian and snake venom sPLA2s.

Abstract
We have cloned two phospholipase A(2) (PLA(2)) DNA complementary to RNA that contained nucleotide sequences encoding pancreas loop by the reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction cloning procedure using messenger RNA isolated from Laticauda semifasciata pancreas. Additionally, a gene clone encoding PLA(2) with the pancreatic loop sequence was isolated from a L. semifasciata genomic library. Subsequent sequence analysis revealed that PLA(2) clones encoding group IB" PLA(2). Comparative analysis of group IA and IB" PLA(2) genes revealed that the exon-intron organization is conserved in the genes of both groups. The invaded sequences in the second intron were very similar to those of the L. semifasciata group IA gene. This observation suggested that the integration of the invaded sequences occurred before the divergence of groups IA and IB" during the evolution of PLA(2) gene. The comparative analysis revealed that the arising of group IA PLA(2) occurred by the deletion and substitution of nucleotide sequences in exon III region during the process of accelerated evolution.

Abstract
Given the potent hydrolyzing activity toward phosphatidylcholine, group X secretory phospholipase A(2) (sPLA(2)-X) elicits a marked release of arachidonic acid linked to the potent production of lipid mediators in various cell types. We have recently shown that sPLA(2)-X can also act as a ligand for mouse phospholipase A(2) receptor (PLA(2)R). Here, we found that sPLA(2)-X was internalized and degraded via binding to PLA(2)R associated with the diminished prostaglandin E(2) (PGE(2)) formation in PLA(2)R-expressing Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells compared to CHO cells. Indirect immunocytochemical analysis revealed that internalized sPLA(2)-X was co-localized with PLA(2)R in the punctate structures in PLA(2)R-expressing CHO cells. Moreover, in mouse osteoblastic MC3T3-E(1) cells that endogenously express the PLA(2)R, the internalized sPLA(2)-X was localized in lysosomes. These findings demonstrate that PLA(2)R acts as a clearance receptor for sPLA(2)-X to suppress its strong enzymatic activity.

Abstract
Studying the molecular basis of presynaptic neurotoxicity of ammodytoxin C, a secretory phospholipase A(2) from the venom of Vipera a. ammodytes snake, we demonstrated the existence of two high-molecular-mass ammodytoxin C-binding proteins in porcine tissues, one in cerebral cortex and the other in liver. These proteins differ considerably in stability and Western blotting properties. However, as shown by immunological analysis and tandem mass spectrometry sequencing of several internal peptides derived from the purified receptors, both belong to secretory phospholipase A(2) receptors of the M type, which are Ca(2+)-dependent multilectins homologous to the macrophage mannose receptor. Based on Southern blot analysis of genomic DNA and deglycosylation of the receptors, the difference between the two proteins most likely stems from the different posttranscriptional and posttranslational modifications of a single gene product. Our findings raise the possibility that the M-type receptors for secretory phospholipases A(2) may display different physiological properties in different tissues.

Abstract
A secretin-releasing activity exists in the upper small intestine and pancreatic juice in the rat and the dog. Group I pancreatic phospholipase A2 (PLA2) in canine pancreatic juice and porcine pancreatic PLA2 stimulate the release of secretin from both STC-1 cells and a secretin-producing cell (S cell)-enriched preparation isolated from rat duodenal mucosa. We investigated the distribution and release of pancreatic PLA2-like immunoreactivity in the gastrointestinal tract and the role of PLA2 on the release of secretin and pancreatic exocrine secretion in response to duodenal acidification in anesthetized rats. PLA2-like immunoreactivity was detected in the mucosa throughout the gastrointestinal tract. High concentrations of PLA2 were found in both the small intestine and the pancreas. Duodenal acidification significantly increased the release of PLA2 from the upper small intestine (385% over basal secretion). Intravenous infusion of an anti-PLA2 serum (anti-PLA2) dose-dependently inhibited the release of secretin and pancreatic exocrine secretion in response to duodenal acid perfusion. Preincubation of the concentrate of intestinal acid perfusate (10-fold) from donor rats with the anti-PLA2 significantly suppressed its stimulation of secretin release and pancreatic exocrine secretion in recipient rats. We conclude that pancreatic PLA2 also functions as a secretin-releasing factor in the small intestine that mediates acid-stimulated release of secretin in rats.

Abstract
The pancreatic secretory phospholipase A(2) (sPLA(2)IB) is considered to be a digestive enzyme, although it has several important receptor-mediated functions. In this study, using the newly isolated murine sPLA(2)IB cDNA clone as a probe, we demonstrate that in addition to the pancreas, the sPLA(2)IB mRNA was expressed in extrapancreatic organs such as the liver, spleen, duodenum, colon, and lungs. We also demonstrate that sPLA(2)IB mRNA expression was detectable from the 17(th) day of gestation in the developing mouse fetus, coinciding with the time of completion of differentiation of the pancreas. Furthermore, the mRNA expression pattern of sPLA(2)IB was distinct from those of sPLA(2)IIA and cPLA(2) in various tissues examined. The murine sPLA(2)IB gene structure is well conserved, consistent with findings in other mammalian species, and this gene mapped to the region of mouse chromosome 5F1-G1.1. Taken together, our results suggest that sPLA(2)IB plays important roles both in the pancreas and in extrapancreatic tissues and that in the mouse, its expression is developmentally regulated.

Abstract
Group X secretory phospholipase A2 (sPLA2-X) has recently been shown to possess a powerful potency for releasing arachidonic acid from cell membrane phospholipids. Here, we report the purification of mouse pro- and mature forms of sPLA2-X, as well as its expression and biological functions. Purified pro-sPLA2-X was found to possess a propeptide of 11 amino acid residues attached at the NH2-terminals of the mature protein, and showed as little as 8% of the PLA2 activity of the mature form. Limited proteolysis of pro-sPLA2-X with trypsin resulted in the appearance of the mature form with a concomitant increase in PLA2 activity, suggesting a requirement of proteolytic removal of the propeptide for the optimal activity. The expression of sPLA2-X mRNA was detected in various tissues including the lung, thymus, and spleen, and immunohistochemical analysis revealed its expression in splenic macrophages. In the spleen cells, mature sPLA2-X elicited a prompt release of arachidonic acid with significant production of prostaglandin E2 more efficiently than group IB and IIA sPLA2s. In addition, sPLA2-X was identified as a high-affinity ligand for both native and recombinant form of mouse PLA2 receptor (PLA2R). However, there was no significant difference in the sPLA2-X-induced arachidonic acid release responses in the spleen cells between wild-type and PLA2R-deficient mice. These findings strongly suggest that sPLA2-X possesses two distinct biological functions in mice: it elicits a marked release of arachidonic acid from membrane phospholipids leading to the production of lipid mediators based on its enzymatic potency, and it acts as a natural ligand for the PLA2R that has been shown to play a critical role in the production of inflammatory cytokines during endotoxic shock.

Abstract
Mechanical loading of bone stimulates resident bone cells to produce prostacyclin (PGI(2)) and prostaglandin (PG)E(2) by a mechanism that can be differentially regulated by ion channel blockers. We have investigated differences in the loading-related PG production mechanisms in rat ulnae explants loaded ex vivo. Loading and aluminium fluoride (AlF(3), a nonselective activator of G-proteins) both increased PGI(2) and PGE(2) release into culture medium. Pertussis toxin (PTX) blocked loading-related release of PGE(2), but not PGI(2), while isotetrandrine, an inhibitor of G-protein-mediated activation of phospholipase (PL)A(2), abolished the loading-related release of both PGs. This suggests both PTX-sensitive and -insensitive G-protein-dependent, PLA(2)-mediated mechanisms for loading-related PG production. Blockade of secretory (s)PLA(2) activity prevented loading-related release of PGE(2) and PGI(2), whereas inhibition of cytosolic (c)PLA(2) activity blocked loading-related release of PGE(2) alone. cPLA(2) was localized immuno-cytochemically to osteoblasts, but not to osteocytes. sPLA(2) was localized to osteocytes and osteoblasts. Exogenous type-IA sPLA(2) and type-IB sPLA(2) stimulated significant increases in PGE(2) and PGI(2) release. PTX reduced the release of both PGs stimulated by type IA PLA(2), but not type IB. Furthermore, inhibition of protein kinase C (PKC) activity blocked loading-related release of PGE(2), but not that of PGI(2). These data suggest that loading-related release of PGI(2) and PGE(2) utilizes arachidonic acid derived from the activity of different PLA(2)s. In osteocytes and osteoblasts, arachidonic acid for PGI(2) synthesis is liberated by PTX-insensitive G-protein-dependent sPLA(2) alone. In osteoblasts, arachidonic acid for PGE(2) synthesis is released by PTX-sensitive, G-protein-dependent, cPLA(2)-mediated activity, which also requires upstream sPLA(2) and PKC activities.

Abstract
Phospholipase A(2) receptor (PLA(2)R) mediates various biological responses elicited by group IB secretory phospholipase A(2) (sPLA(2)-IB). The recently cloned group X sPLA(2) (sPLA(2)-X) possesses several structural features characteristic of sPLA(2)-IB. Here, we detected a specific binding site of sPLA(2)-X in mouse osteoblastic MC3T3-E(1) cells. Cross-linking experiments demonstrated its molecular weight (180 kDa) to be similar to that of PLA(2)R. In fact, sPLA(2)-X was found to bind the recombinant PLA(2)R expressed in COS-7 cells, and its specific binding detected in mouse lung membranes was abolished by the deficiency of PLA(2)R. These findings demonstrate sPLA(2)-X to be one of the high-affinity ligands for mouse PLA(2)R.

Abstract
Phospholipase A(2) receptor (PLA(2)R) mediates a variety of biological responses elicited by mammalian secretory phospholipase A(2) (sPLA(2)). In mice, group IB sPLA(2) (sPLA(2)-IB) acts as an endogenous ligand of PLA(2)R, and analysis of PLA(2)R-deficient mice has demonstrated a critical role of the sPLA(2)-IB/PLA(2)R system in the production of proinflammatory cytokines such as tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha) in the development of endotoxic shock. Here, we generated specific antibodies against a recombinant soluble form of PLA(2)R and examined its expression in the lung and spleen where a remarkable elevation of TNF-alpha expression has been observed during endotoxemia. Immunohistochemical analysis revealed the expression of PLA(2)R in type II alveolar epithelial cells and a subset of splenic lymphocytes, and its expression levels were markedly enhanced at 1 h after endotoxin challenge. Analysis with a newly developed sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay system revealed the presence of a soluble form of PLA(2)R in plasma of wild-type mice compared with its absence in plasma of PLA(2)R-deficient mice. After exposure to endotoxin, its circulating level was significantly elevated to the maximum level at 2-3 h after the treatment. These results suggest that tissue expression and the circulating level of PLA(2)R are elevated during murine endotoxemia, which might be relevant to its potential roles in the production of proinflammatory mediators during the development of inflammatory conditions.

Abstract
Freshly solubilized beta-amyloid (Abeta) peptides display vasoactive properties, increasing both the magnitude and the duration of endothelin-1-induced vasoconstriction. We show that Abeta vasoactivity is mediated by the stimulation of a pro-inflammatory pathway involving activation of secretory phospholipase A(2) (PLA(2)), mitogen activated protein kinase (MAPK) kinase (MEK1/2), p38 MAPK, cytosolic PLA(2), and the release of arachidonic acid. Ultimately, arachidonic acid is metabolized into proinflammatory eicosanoids via the 5-lipoxygenase and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) enzymes, both of which we show to be required for A beta vasoactivity. Accordingly, p38 MAPK activity is higher in the brains of transgenic mice that overproduce A beta, and COX-2 immunoreactivity is increased in the cerebrovasculature of these transgenic animals. Taken together, our data show that freshly solubilized A beta peptides can trigger a pro-inflammatory reaction in the vasculature that can be blocked by inhibiting specific target molecules, providing the basis for novel therapeutic intervention.

Abstract
Mammalian secretory phospholipase A(2)s (sPLA(2)s) form a family of structurally related enzymes that are involved in a variety of physiological and pathological processes via the release of arachidonic acid from membrane phospholipids or the binding to specific membrane receptors. Here, we report the cloning and characterization of a novel sPLA(2) that is the sixth isoform of the sPLA(2) family found in humans. The novel human mature sPLA(2) consists of 123 amino acids (M(r) = 14,000) and is most similar to group IIA sPLA(2) (sPLA(2)-IIA) with respect to the number and positions of cysteine residues as well as overall identity (51%). Therefore, this novel sPLA(2) should be categorized into group II and called group IIE (sPLA(2)-IIE) following the recently identified group IID sPLA(2) (sPLA(2)-IID). The enzymatic properties of recombinant human sPLA(2)-IIE were almost identical to those of sPLA(2)-IIA and IID in terms of Ca(2+) requirement, optimal pH, substrate specificity, as well as high susceptibility to the sPLA(2) inhibitor indoxam. Along with the biochemical properties of proteins, genetic and evolutional similarities were also observed among these three types of group II sPLA(2)s as to the chromosomal location of the human gene (1p36) and the exon/intron organization. The expression of sPLA(2)-IIE transcripts in humans was restricted to the brain, heart, lung, and placenta in contrast to broad expression profiles for sPLA(2)-IIA and -IID. In sPLA(2)-IIA-deficient mice, the expression of sPLA(2)-IIE was markedly enhanced in the lung and small intestine upon endotoxin challenge, which contrasted with the reduced expression of sPLA(2)-IID mRNA. In situ hybridization analysis revealed elevation of sPLA(2)-IIE mRNA at alveolar macrophage-like cells in the lung of endotoxin-treated mice. These findings suggest a distinct functional role of novel sPLA(2)-IIE in the progression of inflammatory processes.

Abstract
When exposed for prolonged periods of time (up to 20 h) to bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS) murine P388D(1) macrophages exhibit a delayed prostaglandin biosynthetic response that is entirely mediated by cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2). Both the constitutive Group IV cytosolic phospholipase A(2) (cPLA(2)) and the inducible Group V secretory phospholipase A(2) (sPLA(2)) are involved in the cyclooxygenase-2-dependent generation of prostaglandins in response to LPS. Using the selective sPLA(2) inhibitor 3-(3-acetamide-1-benzyl-2-ethylindolyl-5-oxy)propane sulfonic acid (LY311727) and an antisense oligonucleotide specific for Group V sPLA(2), we found that induction of COX-2 expression is strikingly dependent on Group V sPLA(2), which was further confirmed by experiments in which exogenous Group V sPLA(2) was added to the cells. Exogenous Group V sPLA(2) was able to induce significant arachidonate mobilization on its own and to induce expression of the COX-2. None of these effects was observed if inactive Group V sPLA(2) was utilized, implying that enzyme activity is crucial for these effects to take place. Therefore, not only delayed prostaglandin production but also COX-2 gene induction are dependent on a catalytically active Group V sPLA(2). COX-2 expression was also found to be blunted by the Group IV cPLA(2) inhibitor methyl arachidonyl fluorophosphonate, which we have previously found to block Group V sPLA(2) induction as well. Collectively, the results support a model whereby Group IV cPLA(2) activation regulates the expression of Group V sPLA(2), which in turn is responsible for delayed prostaglandin production by regulating COX-2 expression.

Abstract
A specific phospholipase A(2) receptor from porcine cerebral cortex has been characterized (K(d) = 145 nM, B(max) = 0.4 pmol/mg membrane protein) by using a radioiodinated derivative of ammodytoxin C (AtxC), a snake venom presynaptically neurotoxic group IIA phospholipase A(2). After the receptor was solubilized in a ligand-binding form, it was approximately 14,000-fold enriched by chromatography on wheat germ lectin-Sepharose and AtxC-Affi-Gel 10. The receptor is a single chain glycoprotein with an apparent molecular mass of 180 kDa and binds toxic and non-toxic phospholipases A(2) of either group I or II. It also recognizes conjugates of bovine serum albumin with mannose, N-acetylglucosamine, and galactose. In its molecular mass and pharmacological profile, the AtxC receptor resembles the M-type receptor for secretory phospholipases A(2) from rabbit skeletal muscle (a C-type multilectin, homologous to macrophage mannose receptor), yet in terms of relative abundance in brain and antigenicity, these two receptors are completely different. A further AtxC receptor of approximately 200 kDa discovered in porcine liver was, however, recognized by anti-rabbit M-type phospholipase A(2) receptor antibodies. There are, therefore, two immunologically distinct secretory phospholipase A(2) receptors of about 200 kDa in the same species. Although the liver receptor is related to the M-type secretory phospholipase A(2) receptors, the brain receptor is not and belongs to a novel group of secretory phospholipase A(2) receptors.

Abstract
Mammalian secretory phospholipase A(2)s (sPLA(2)s) are classified into several groups according to molecular structure and the localization of intramolecular disulfide bridges. Among them, group IIA sPLA(2) has been thought to be one of the key enzymes in the pathogenesis of inflammatory diseases owing to its augmented expression under various inflammatory conditions. However, in a number of inbred mouse strains, the group IIA sPLA(2) gene is naturally disrupted by a frameshift mutation. Here, we report the cloning of a cDNA encoding a novel sPLA(2) expressed in the spleen of group IIA sPLA(2)-deficient mouse. We also cloned its human homolog and mapped its gene location on chromosome 1p36.12 near the loci of group IIA and V sPLA(2) genes. The human mature sPLA(2) protein consists of 125 amino acids (M(r) = 14,500) preceded by a 20-residue prepeptide and is most similar to group IIA sPLA(2) with respect to the number and positions of cysteine residues as well as overall identity (48%). Based on these structural properties, the novel sPLA(2) should be categorized into group II, called group IID to follow the already identified IIA to IIC sPLA(2)s. When the cDNA was expressed in COS-7 cells, PLA(2) activity preferentially accumulated in the culture medium. It is maximally active at neutral to alkaline pH and with 2 mM Ca(2+). In assays with individual substrates, L-alpha-1-palmitoyl-2-linoleoyl phosphatidylethanolamine was more efficiently hydrolyzed than the other phospholipids examined. An RNA blot hybridized with the cDNA exhibited two transcripts (2.0 and 1.0 kb) in human spleen, thymus, and colon. The expression of a novel sPLA(2) mRNA was elevated in the thymus after treatment with endotoxin in rats as well as in group IIA sPLA(2)-deficient mice, suggesting its functional role in the progression of the inflammatory process.

Abstract
To identify the residues essential for interfacial binding and substrate binding of human pancreatic phospholipase A2 (hpPLA2), several ionic residues in the putative interfacial binding surface (R6E, K7E, K10E, and K116E) and substrate binding site (D53K and K56E) were mutated. Interfacial affinity of these mutants was measured using anionic polymerized liposomes, and their enzymatic activity was measured using various substrates including phospholipid monomers, zwitterionic and anionic micelles, and anionic polymerized mixed liposomes. Similar mutations (R6E, K10E, K56E, and K116E) were made to porcine pancreatic phospholipase A2 (ppPLA2), and the properties of mutants were measured by the same methods. Results indicate that hpPLA2 and ppPLA2 have similar interfacial binding mechanisms in which cationic residues in the amino terminus and Lys-116 in the carboxy terminus are involved in binding to anionic lipid surfaces. Small but definite differences between the two enzymes were observed in overall interfacial affinity and activity and the effects of the mutations on interfacial enzyme activity. The interfacial binding of hpPLA2 and ppPLA2 is distinct from that of bovine pancreatic phospholipase A2 in that Lys-56 is involved in the interfacial binding of the latter enzyme. The unique phospholipid headgroup specificity of hpPLA2 derives from the presence of Asp-53 in the substrate binding site. This residue appears to participate in stabilizing electrostatic interactions with the cationic ethanolamine headgroup, hence the phosphatidylethanolamine preference of hpPLA2. Taken together, these studies reveal the similarities and the differences in the mechanisms by which mammalian pancreatic phospholipases A2 interact with lipid aggregates and perform interfacial catalysis.

Abstract
Endotoxic shock is a systemic inflammatory process, involving a variety of proinflammatory mediators. Two types of secretory phospholipase A2 (sPLA2) have been implicated in this process. Group IB sPLA2 (PLA2-IB) binds to the PLA2 receptor (PLA2R), and PLA2R-deficient mice exhibit resistance to endotoxin-induced lethality with reduced plasma levels of proinflammatory cytokines, such as TNF-alpha. Group IIA sPLA2 (PLA2-IIA) is found in many tissues and cell types, and local and systemic levels are elevated under numerous inflammatory conditions including sepsis. In this study, we investigated the effect of a specific sPLA2 inhibitor, indoxam, on murine endotoxic shock. Indoxam suppressed the elevation of plasma TNF-alpha with a similar potency in PLA2-IIA-expressing and PLA2-IIA-deficient mice after LPS challenge. In PLA2-IIA-deficient mice, indoxam also suppressed the elevation of plasma IL-1beta, IL-6 and NO, and prolonged survival after LPS challenge. Indoxam was found to block the PLA2-IB binding to murine PLA2R with a high potency (Ki=30 nM). The inhibitory effects of indoxam on the LPS-induced elevation of plasma TNF-alpha levels could not be observed in mice deficient in PLA2R. These findings suggest that indoxam blocks the production of proinflammatory cytokines during endotoxemia through PLA2-IIA-independent mechanisms, possibly via blockade of the PLA2R function.

Abstract
We have isolated, from canine pancreatic juice, two 14-kDa proteins with secretin-releasing activity that had N-terminal sequence homology with canine pancreatic phospholipase A2 (PLA2). In this study we have obtained evidence that secretin-releasing activity is an intrinsic property of pancreatic PLA2. Porcine pancreatic PLA2 from Sigma or Boehringer Mannheim was fractionated into several peaks by reverse phase high performance liquid chromatography. They were tested for stimulation of secretin release from murine neuroendocrine intestinal tumor cell line STC-1 and secretin cells enriched mucosal cell preparations isolated from rat upper small intestine. Each enzyme preparation was found to contain several components of secretin-releasing activity. Each bioactive fraction was purified to homogeneity by rechromatography and then subjected to mass spectral analysis and assays of PLA2 and secretin-releasing activities. It was found that the fraction with highest enzymatic activity also had the highest secretin-releasing activity and the same Mr as porcine pancreatic PLA2. Moreover, it also had the same N-terminal amino acid sequence (up to 30 residues determined) as that of porcine pancreatic PLA2, suggesting that it was identical to the enzyme. Purified porcine pancreatic PLA2 also stimulated secretin release concentration-dependently from both STC-1 cells and a mucosal cell preparation enriched in secretin-containing endocrine cells isolated from rat duodenum. Abolishment of the enzymatic activity by pretreatment with bromophenacyl bromide did not affect its secretin-releasing activity. The stimulatory effect of purified pancreatic PLA2 on secretin secretion from STC-1 cells was inhibited by an L-type Ca2+ channel blocker, by down-regulation of protein kinase C or by pretreatment of the cell with pertussis toxin. It is concluded that porcine pancreatic PLA2 possesses an intrinsic secretin-releasing activity that was independent of its enzymatic activity. This action is pertussis toxin-sensitive and is in part dependent on Ca2+ influx through the L-type channel and activation of protein kinase C.

Abstract
Accumulating evidence indicates that prostaglandins play an important role in the pathogenesis of periodontal disease. In this study, the effects and interactions between IL-1beta and TNFalpha on prostaglandin production and its regulation were investigated. The cytokines IL-1beta and TNFalpha stimulated prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) and prostacyclin (PGI2) production in gingival fibroblasts. Simultaneous treatment of the cells with IL-1beta and TNFalpha resulted in a synergistic stimulation of PGE2 and PGI2 formation. IL-1beta and, to a lesser extent, TNFalpha stimulated the release of 3H-arachidonic acid (3H-AA), and simultaneous addition of IL-1beta and TNFalpha further increased the release of 3H-AA from pre-labeled gingival fibroblasts. Furthermore, IL-1beta and, to a lesser extent, TNFalpha induced the expression of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) mRNA. Simultaneous addition of IL-1beta and TNFalpha synergistically enhanced COX-2 mRNA levels, accompanied by a corresponding stimulation of PGE2 synthesis. Neither IL-1beta, TNFalpha, nor the combination of these two cytokines affected COX-1 mRNA levels. PMA, known to activate protein kinase C (PKC), enhanced the stimulatory effect of IL-1beta, TNFalpha, and the combination on COX-2 mRNA levels accompanied by a corresponding increase in PGE2 production. The phospholipase A2 (PLA2) inhibitor, BPB, and the PKC inhibitor, BIS, reduced PGE2 production, whereas dexamethasone, indomethacin, and NS-398 completely abolished PGE2 production induced by IL-1beta, TNFalpha, and the combination. The study indicates that the synergistic stimulation of prostaglandin production by IL-1beta, and TNFalpha is mediated partly at the level of COX-2 and partly at the level of PLA2 and that PKC is involved in the signal transduction of the synergy between the two cytokines. The synergy between IL-1beta and TNFalpha may play an important role in the inflammatory processes in gingival tissue in vivo.

Abstract
The electronic structure of the whole molecule of acidic phospholipase A2 (PLA2) from the venom of Agkistrodon halys pallas (A. halys pallas) has been calculated using the extended negative factor counting (ENFC) method in which dimers were calculated at the ab initio level using a minimal basis set, with simulation of the aqueous environment. Hopping conductivities were determined by the use of random walk theory. The results show that the frontier orbitals are mainly localized to residues which are involved in the biological activity of acidic PLA2. The C-terminal region might play some important role in biological activity because of its active electrons. The aromatic patch on the surface of the enzyme, together with two neighbouring acidic residues, has very active electrons that may be responsible for the inhibition of platelet aggregation. Trp30, which is involved in the interfacial recognition region, may transfer its electrons to the aggregated substrate. It is also concluded that the conductivity of the protein is caused mainly by holes transported through the valence band rather than electrons transferred in the conductive band. The a.c. conductivity of acidic PLA2 confirms that proteins, if doped, are amorphous conductors. Moreover, the a.c. conductivities of acidic PLA2 are approximately one order of magnitude higher than those of some other proteins. This suggests that the toxicity of acidic PLA2 may be related to its high a.c. conductivity.

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
Cytokines alter neutrophil (PMN) function during inflammation, and Tumor Necrosis Factor (TNF) in vitro primes PMN such that receptor-mediated stimulation causes markedly enhanced release of arachidonic acid. We hypothesized that two Ca(2+)-dependent PLA2's in PMN might be activated during priming of the cell, thus affecting arachidonate release. A low molecular weight, secretory PLA2 was identified by enzymatic activity in the cell free supernates of primed or stimulated PMN, and in PMN disrupted by nitrogen cavitation. The enzymatic activity was calcium-dependent, acid stable, destroyed by dithiothreitol, and blocked by anti-sPLA2 antibodies. TNF caused secretion of sPLA2 and also caused an increase in cell-associated sPLA2 enzymatic activity. Activation and release were maximal with fMLP stimulation of TNF-primed PMN. Neutrophils also contained a cytosolic PLA2 (cPLA2) characterized by enzymatic activity which was calcium dependent, enhanced by dithiothreitol, and blocked by anti-cPLA2 antibody. TNF caused a doubling of cPLA2 enzymatic activity which was associated with phosphorylation of the enzyme as judged by a migration shift on Western blots. Thus, TNF priming of human PMN caused marked increase in fMLP stimulated AA release in parallel to enhanced activity of two different PLA2's.

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
The biological effects of type IIA 14-kDa phospholipase A2 (sPLA2) on 1321N1 astrocytoma cells were studied. sPLA2 induced a release of [3H]arachidonic acid ([3H]AA) similar to that elicited by lysophosphatidic acid (LPA), a messenger acting via a G-protein-coupled receptor and a product of sPLA2 on lipid microvesicles. In contrast, no release of [1-14C]oleate could be detected in cells labeled with this fatty acid. As these findings pointed to a selective mechanism of [3H]AA release, it was hypothesized that sPLA2 could act by a signaling mechanism involving the activation of cytosolic PLA2 (cPLA2), i.e. the type of PLA2 involved in the release of [3H]AA elicited by agonists. In keeping with this view, stimulation of 1321N1 cells with sPLA2 elicited the decrease in electrophoretic mobility that is characteristic of the phosphorylation of cPLA2, as well as activation of p42 mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase, c-Jun kinase, and p38 MAP kinase. Incubation with sPLA2 of quiescent 1321N1 cells elicited a mitogenic response as judged from an increased incorporation of [3H]thymidine. Attempts to correlate the effect of extracellular PLA2 with the generation of LPA were negative. Incubation with pertussis toxin prior to the addition of either sPLA2 or LPA only showed abrogation of the response to LPA, thus suggesting the involvement of pertussis-sensitive Gi-proteins in the case of LPA. Treatments with inhibitors of the catalytic effect of sPLA2 such as p-bromophenacyl bromide and dithiothreitol did not prevent the effect on cPLA2 activation. In contrast, preincubation of 1321N1 cells with the antagonist of the sPLA2 receptor p-aminophenyl-alpha-D-mannopyranoside-bovine serum albumin, blocked cPLA2 activation with a EC50 similar to that described for the inhibition of binding of sPLA2 to its receptor. Moreover, treatment of 1321N1 cells with the MAP kinase kinase inhibitor PD-98059 inhibited the activation of both cPLA2 and p42 MAP kinase produced by sPLA2. In summary, these data indicate the existence in astrocytoma cells of a signaling pathway triggered by engagement of a sPLA2-binding structure, that produces the release of [3H]AA by activating the MAP kinase cascade and cPLA2, and leads to a mitogenic response after longer periods of incubation.

Abstract
Although secretory phospholipase A2 (PLA2) isozymes have been identified in human gestational tissues, their role in homeostasis and pathophysiology during pregnancy has yet to be clearly established. The aims of this brief commentary are: (1) to review recent data concerning the expression of secretory PLA2 isozymes in human gestational tissues; and (2) to present a case for their involvement in regulating the expression of glycerophospholipids in the exoplasmic monolayer of the cell membrane. Three secretory PLA2 isozymes and a secretory PLA2 cell-surface receptor have been identified in human term gestational tissues. In addition to their potential role in the formation of glycerophospholipid-derived metabolites (such as prostaglandins), these isozymes may function to regulate the expression of aminophospholipids on the cell surface. The exposure of aminophospholipids on the cell surface dramatically affects many aspects of cell function. Secreted PLA2 isozymes that display a substrate preference for the negatively charged aminophospholipids (e.g. phosphatidylserine or phosphatidylethanolamine) in the exoplasmic membrane may affect cell function and reactivity via a process of 'membrane polishing', that is, the preferentially removal of aminophospholipids from the exoplasmic leaflet of the cell membranes. By this process, secreted PLA2 isozymes may limit unsolicited cell-surface binding of exogenous proteins, membrane fusion events and recognition by cellular surveillance systems.

Abstract
Mammals possess various types of secretory phospholipase A2, which differ in the primary structure and tissue distribution. The phosholipase A2 receptor (PLA2R) recognizes group IB phospholipase A2 (PLA2-IB) and mediates the PLA2-IB-induced biological responses in non-digestive organs, including eicosanoid production and contraction of airway smooth muscles. In this study, we generated PLA2R-deficient mice to define its biological roles further. These mice are viable, fertile, and without evident histopathological abnormalities. There was no difference in the clearance of circulating PLA2-IB between wild-type and mutant mice. After challenge with bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS), PLA2R-deficient mice exhibited longer survival than wild-type mice. The mutant mice were also resistant to lethal effects of exogenous PLA2-IB after sensitization with sublethal dose of LPS. The plasma levels of tumor necrosis factor-alpha and interleukin-1beta elevated after LPS treatment were significantly reduced in mutant mice compared with wild-type mice. These findings suggest a potential role of PLA2R in the progression of endotoxic shock.

Abstract
We used the MC3T3-E1 cell line, which originates from C57BL/6J mouse that is genetically type IIA secretory phospholipase A2 (sPLA2)-deficient, to reveal the type IIA sPLA2-independent route of the prostanglandin (PG) biosynthetic pathway. Kinetic and pharmacological studies showed that delayed PGE2 generation by this cell line in response to interleukin (IL)-1beta and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFalpha) was dependent upon cytosolic phospholipase A2 (cPLA2) and cyclooxygenase (COX)-2. Expression of these two enzymes was reduced by cPLA2 or COX-2 inhibitors and restored by adding exogenous arachidonic acid or PGE2, indicating that PGE2 produced by these cells acted as an autocrine amplifier of delayed PGE2 generation through enhanced cPLA2 and COX-2 expression. Exogenous addition or enforced expression of type IIA sPLA2 significantly increased IL-1beta/TNFalpha-initiated PGE2 generation, which was accompanied by increased expression of both cPLA2 and COX-2 and suppressed by inhibitors of these enzymes. Thus, our results revealed a particular cross-talk between the two PLA2 enzymes and COX-2 for delayed PGE2 biosynthesis by a type IIA sPLA2-deficient cell line. cPLA2 is responsible for initiating COX-2-dependent delayed PGE2 generation, and sPLA2, if introduced, enhances PGE2 generation by increasing cPLA2 and COX-2 expression via endogenous PGE2.

Abstract
Mammalian pancreatic phospholipases A2 (PLA2) have recently been implicated in cell surface receptor-mediated inflammation. As a first step toward understanding how human pancreatic PLA2 (hp-PLA2) interacts with membranes and other biological targets including cell-surface receptors, we constructed its bacterial expression vector which can be used for the mutagenesis and protein over-expression. The expression vector (pSH-hp) was constructed using a synthetic hp-PLA2 gene whose transcription is controlled by T7 promoter. hp-PLA2 was expressed as a mature protein in high concentration in Escherichia coli cells and formed inclusion body. The solubilization of inclusion body protein followed by the refolding and purification produced ca. 5 mg of pure protein from one liter of growth medium. Kinetic studies of recombinant human, bovine and porcine pancreatic PLA2s using polymerized mixed liposomes and micelles as substrates showed that despite their highly homologous structures these mammalian pancreatic PLA2s have distinct phospholipid head group specificity and different activity toward various lipid substrates.

Abstract
We have found that the growth of human pancreatic cancer cells MIAPaCa-2, induced by human pancreatic phospholipase A2 group I (hPLA2-I), is mediated via its specific receptor but not via its catalytic property. The present study showed that the activation of mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) cascade in MIAPaCa-2 cells is induced by hPLA2-I: this digestive enzyme induced phosphorylation of MEK1/2, p44/42 MAPK and ATF-2, and the phosphorylation in the MAPK cascade was inhibited after the cells were pre-incubated with a selective inhibitor of MEK, PD98059. In addition, this inhibitor dose-dependently blocked the hPLA2-I-induced MIAPaCa-2 proliferation, suggesting that activation of the MAPK cascade is essential for the hPLA2-I-induced MIAPaCa-2 proliferation.

Abstract
It is well known that arachidonic acid, as a substrate of prostaglandin G/H synthase (PGHS), is converted into prostaglandins of the two-series. In this work, we attempted to determine whether arachidonic acid and prostaglandin E2 might regulate the expression of PGHS and the pancreatic-type phospholipase A2 (PLA2I), which may be involved in the liberation of arachidonic acid from membrane phospholipids. For this purpose, we used the uterine stromal cell line UIII, which produces prostaglandin E2 and expresses both the constitutive and inducible PGHS enzymes (PGHS1 and PGHS2) and PLA2 I. The results show that PGHS1, which is expressed at a high level in UIII cells, was not modified by arachidonic acid. The expression of PGHS2 and PLA2 I was up-regulated by increasing arachidonate concentrations (1-10 microM). The maximal response was obtained at 24 h, reaching a 2.3-fold and 2.6-fold increase for PGHS2 and PLA2 I expression, respectively, compared to the control level. To discriminate between the effect of arachidonic acid and that of prostaglandins, which are highly increased in the presence of exogenous arachidonic acid, we treated the cells with two inhibitors of PGHS activity, aspirin and meclofenamic acid. Both inhibitors failed to suppress the arachidonate-induced increase of PLA2 I and PGHS2 expression and even enhanced it either in the presence or absence of arachidonic acid. In contrast, the addition of prostaglandin E2 to the culture medium decreased the expression of both enzymes in a dose-dependent manner, the maximal response being reached at 1 microM. We conclude that arachidonic acid up-regulates the expression of PLA2 I and PGHS2 in the uterine stromal cells, independently of prostanoids, and that prostaglandin E2 is capable of down-regulating enzyme expression.

Abstract
Uterine stromal cells produce and release PGE2, both processes being regulated by hormonal factors. In this study, we examined the effect of PRL on the PGE2 production and release measured by radioimmunoassay. For this purpose, we used a rat uterine stromal cell line, UIII cells, which produce PGE2 and contain PRL receptors. The expression of sPLA2I and PGHS (PGHS1 and PGHS2), enzymes required for PGE2 production, was also estimated by immunocytochemistry and 'Western blotting' in response to PRL. PRL (10 to 60 ng/ml) significantly increased the PGE2 release (up to 6-fold) and production, in a dose-dependent manner. Results show that PGHS1 and PGHS2 are both expressed constitutively in the uterine UIII cells, although PGHS2 is expressed at a low level. PRL did not increase PGHS1 expression, but stimulated the expression of sPLA2I and PGHS2 by 3.5- and 2.5-fold, respectively. These data show for the first time a regulation of sPLA2I and PGHS2 expression by PRL and may indicate that, in uterine cells, PRL enhances the PGE2 release and production by increasing the expression of both sPLA2I and PGHS2.

Abstract
The thioesterase activity of porcine pancreatic phospholipase A2 has been investigated with non-phospholipid substrates. The acyl-CoA hydrolase activity towards acyl-CoA derivatives is specific for long chain fatty acids (14 C, 16 C) but is unable to hydrolyze short chain acyl-CoA compounds (below 8 C). The same enzyme also shows protein deacylase activity liberating [3H]palmitic acid from [3H]palmitoyl-acyl carrier protein.

Abstract
Endocytic properties of the M-type 180-kDa receptor for secretory phospholipases A2 (sPLA2) were first investigated in rabbit myocytes that express it at high levels. Internalization of the receptor was shown to be clathrin-coated pit-mediated, rapid (ke = 0.1 min-1), and ligand-independent. The signal sequence for internalization was then identified upon transient and stable expression of various receptor constructs with mutated cytoplasmic sequences. Analysis of the internalization efficiency of the mutants suggested that the NSYY motif encodes the major endocytic signal, with the distal tyrosine residue playing the key role. Amino acid substitutions at the putative casein kinase II phosphorylation site of the receptor did not affect internalization. A chimeric protein composed of the extracellular and transmembrane domains of the rabbit sPLA2 receptor and of the cytoplasmic domain of the structurally homologous human macrophage mannose receptor retained the high affinity for sPLA2 and was internalization competent, exhibiting 50% endocytic activity of the M-type sPLA2 receptor. The results indicate the compatibility of the structural domains of the two parent proteins and provide evidence for the interchangeable character of their internalization signals.

Abstract
Group I pancreatic phospholipase A2 (PLA2 I) is primarily a digestive enzyme. Recently, however, in addition to its catalytic activity a receptor-mediated function has been described for this enzyme. PLA2 I binding to its receptor induces cellular chemokinesis, proliferation, and smooth muscle contraction. This enzyme also induces the production of prostaglandin E2 in certain cells and may have a proinflammatory role. However, despite its ability to hydrolyze phospholipids in in vitro assays, PLA2-I does not efficiently catalyze release of AA from intact cells. Here, we demonstrate that while short-term exposure of NIH 3T3 cells to PLA2-I is ineffective, exposure of 6 h or longer significantly increases the basal release of AA. Dose-response curve of PLA2-I-induced AA release was saturable with an EC50 of 14.01 +/- 1.36 nM (n = 3). [3H]-AA was preferentially released over [3H]-oleic acid by PLA2-I. PLA2-I, inactivated with 4-bromophenacyl bromide, was fully capable of mediating AA release. These data suggest that a non-catalytic, receptor-mediated mechanism is involved in PLA2-I-induced AA release in NIH-3T3 cells. This release of AA is not dependent on protein kinase C or Ca2+ concentration. Comparison of the effect of PLA2-I with those of ATP and platelet-derived growth factor indicates that each of these agonists regulates AA release via independent pathways. Neither the basal enzymatic activity of the 85-kDa cytosolic PLA2 nor the protein level of this enzyme was affected by treatment of cells with PLA2-I. However, the increase in basal enzymatic activity of 85 kDa PLA2 due to protein kinase C activation was further enhanced by pretreatment of cells with PLA2-I. We conclude that: (1) short-term exposure of cells to PLA2 I does not cause measurable AA release; (2) release of AA from intact cells by this enzyme requires long-term exposure; (3) AA release is not mediated by a direct catalytic effect of PLA2 I; and (4) AA release by PLA2 I is accomplished via a receptor-mediated process. Taken together, these results raise the possibility that PLA2 I, in addition to its digestive function, may also contribute to aggravate preexisting inflammatory processes and/or to initiate new ones when chronic exposure of cells to this enzyme occurs.

Abstract
Cyclooxygenase 2 (COX-2) is a newly discovered isoform of cyclooxygenase that is inducible by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) or cytokines. This enzyme is considered to play a major role in inflammatory processes by catalyzing the production of prostaglandins. In the present study, induction of COX-2 mRNA in the rat brain by intraperitoneal injection of LPS was studied by the in situ hybridization technique with special attention paid to timing and sites of induction along with the time course of fever. In situ hybridization was carried out on sections of rat brain, 1 h (latent phase), 2.5 h (maximally febrile phase), 4 h (plateau phase), and 7 h (recovery phase) after the LPS injection, as well as on those from the brains of untreated and saline-injected rats. Injection of LPS induced COX-2 mRNA in the brain in two different constituents: neuronal cells and non-parenchymal cells of the blood vessels and leptomeninges. Induction in the neuronal cells was restricted to some telencephalic areas where the COX-2 mRNA signal was also detected in control animals. The signal was maximally enhanced by 50 to 80% over the basal level 1 h after LPS injection. The COX-2 mRNA signal was hardly detectable in neuronal and glial cells in other brain regions, including the preoptic area, either in control or LPS-injected rats. Strong COX-2 mRNA signals, however, appeared in the inner surface of blood vessels and the leptomeninges over the entire brain, including the preoptic area and its vicinity. The signals were not detectable in the brains of control rats and were most intense in the brains of rats treated with LPS for 2.5 h or 4 h. These results demonstrate that two major cell groups in the brain, neuronal cells and non-parenchymal cells, are responsible for the enhanced production of prostaglandins after systemic LPS treatment. Considering the site and timing of induction, we propose a possible role for blood vessels and leptomeninges as the source of prostaglandin E2 in the genesis of fever.
