Abstract
Mitogenesis of Vascular Smooth Muscle Cells (VSMC) plays an important role in atherogenesis. Until recently, the effect of lipid subfractions has not been clarified. Secretory phospholipases A2 (sPLA2's) hydrolyse glycerophospholipids and release pro-inflammatory lyso-lipids, oxidized and non-oxidized fatty acids and isoprostanes. They localize in the vascular wall. We hypothesized that structurally similar sPLA2's may exert different impact on VSMC. The influence of sPLA2's, IIA, V, X, HDL, LDL, and hydrolysis products was tested on mitogenesis of VSMC, i.e., the early effect on the cell membrane phospholipids, and on PGE2 and LTB4 release, i.e., late effect of Cyclooxygenase and 5-lipooxygenase activity in VSMC. Mitogenesis was significantly enhanced by HDL and LDL, and by products of sPLA2 hydrolysis. Hydrolysis of HDL or LDL enhanced mitogenic activity in order V>X>IIA. The release of PGE2 was enhanced by group X sPLA2 and by HDL hydrolyzed by groups V and X. LDL and its hydrolysis products enhanced the release of PGE2 in order X>V>IIA. The release of LTB4 was markedly increased by LDL and HDL, and by hydrolytic products of group V and X, but not group IIA sPLA2. Our study demonstrates a diverse interaction of pro-inflammatory sPLA2's with HDL and LDL affecting both mitogenesis and eicosanoid release from VSMC, therefore potentially enhancing their pro-atherogenic activity.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Investigation of the diversity of human secretory phospholipases A2 (sPLA2) on the migration of human vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC). MATERIAL We investigated the impact of sPLA2 IIA, V, and X and of oleic acid, linoleic acid and lysophosphatidylcholine on the migration of human VSMC. METHODS Recombinant human sPLA2's and Boyden's chamber method were applied. RESULTS sPLA2, IIA but not V or X enhanced migration of VSMC in a dose/time dependent manner. Oleic and linoleic acids, and lysophosphatidylcholine markedly enhanced migration. CONCLUSIONS These results imply that sPLA2 IIA, which is known to be present in the arterial wall in the vicinity of VSMC, as well as products of lipid hydrolysis induced by sPLA2, enhance the migration of VSMC, and thus may contribute to atherogenic process.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus is a well-established risk factor for vascular diseases caused by atherosclerosis. In the development of diabetic atherogenesis, vascular smooth muscle cell proliferation is recognized as a key event. Thus, we aimed to investigate whether an ethanol extract of Buddleja officinalis (EBO) suppresses high glucose-induced proliferation in primary cultured human aortic smooth muscle cells (HASMC). [(3)H]-thymidine incorporation revealed that incubation of HASMC with a high concentration of glucose (25 mmol/L) increased cell proliferation. The expression levels of cell cycle protein were also increased by treatment with high glucose concentration. Pretreatment of HASMC with EBO significantly attenuated the increase of high glucose-induced cell proliferation as well as p38 mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPK) and JNK phosphorylation. EBO suppressed high glucose-induced matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-9 activity in a dose-dependent manner. In addition, EBO suppressed nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-kappaB) nuclear translocation and transcriptional activity in high glucose conditions. Taken together, the present data suggest that EBO could suppress high glucose-induced atherosclerotic processes through inhibition of p38, JNK, NF-kappaB and MMP signal pathways in HASMC.

Abstract
Atherosclerosis is a multifactorial vascular disease characterized by formation of inflammatory lesions. Elevated circulating acute phase proteins indicate disease risk. Serum amyloid A (SAA) is one such marker but its function remains unclear. To determine the role of SAA on aortic smooth muscle cell gene expression, a preliminary screen of a number of genes was performed and a strong up-regulation of expression of secretory phospholipase A(2), group IIA (sPLA(2)) was identified. The SAA-induced increase in sPLA(2) was validated by real time PCR, Western blot analysis, and enzyme activity assays. Demonstrating that SAA increased expression of sPLA(2) heteronuclear RNA and that inhibiting transcription eliminated the effect of SAA on sPLA(2) mRNA suggested that the increase was transcriptional. Transient transfections and electrophoretic mobility shift assays identified CAAT enhancer-binding protein (C/EBP) and nuclear factor kappaB (NFkappaB) as key regulatory sites mediating the induction of sPLA(2). Moreover, SAA activated the inhibitor of NF-kappaB kinase (IKK) in cultured smooth muscle cells. Previous reports showed that interleukin (IL)-1beta up-regulates Pla2g2a gene transcription via C/EBPbeta and NFkappaB. Interestingly, SAA activated smooth muscle cell IL-1beta mRNA expression, however, blocking IL-1 receptors had no effect on SAA-mediated activation of sPLA(2) expression. Thus, the observed changes in sPLA(2) expression were not secondary to SAA-induced IL-1 receptor activation. The association of SAA with high density lipoprotein abrogated the SAA-induced increase in sPLA(2) expression. These data suggest that during atherogenesis, SAA can amplify the involvement of smooth muscle cells in vascular inflammation and that this can lead to deposition of sPLA(2) and subsequent local changes in lipid homeostasis.

Abstract
Phospholipases A(2) (PLA2s) are esterases that hydrolyze the sn-2 ester of glycerophospholipids and constitute one of the largest families of lipid hydrolyzing enzymes. The mammalian genome contains 10 enzymatically active secreted PLA2s (sPLA2s) and two sPLA2-related proteins devoid of lipolytic enzymatic activity. In addition to the well-established functions of one of these enzymes in digestion of dietary phospholipids and another in host defense against bacterial infections, accumulating evidence shows that some of these sPLA2s are involved in arachidonic acid release from cellular phospholipids for the biosynthesis of eicosanoids, especially during inflammation. More speculative results suggest the involvement of one or more sPLA2s in promoting atherosclerosis and cancer. In addition, the mammalian genome encodes several types of sPLA2-binding proteins, and mounting evidence shows that sPLA2s may have functions related to binding to cellular target proteins in a manner independent of their lipolytic enzymatic activity.

Abstract
Since its discovery in the serum of patients with severe inflammation and in rheumatoid arthritic fluids, the secretory phospholipase A2 of group IIA (sPLA2-IIA) has been chiefly considered as a proinflammatory enzyme, the result of which has been very intense interest in selective inhibitors of sPLA2-IIA in the hope of developing new and efficient therapies for inflammatory diseases. The recent discovery of the antibacterial properties of sPLA2-IIA, however, has raised the question of whether the upregulation of sPLA2-IIA during inflammation is to be considered uniformly negative and the hindrance of sPLA2-IIA in every instance beneficial. The aim of this review is for this reason, along with the results of various investigations which argue for the proinflammatory and proatherogenic effects of an upregulation of sPLA2-IIA, also to array data alongside which point to a protective function of sPLA2-IIA during inflammation. Thus, it could be shown that sPLA2-IIA, apart from the bactericidal effects, possesses also antithrombotic properties and indeed plays a possible role in the resolution of inflammation and the accelerated clearance of oxidatively modified lipoproteins during inflammation via the liver and adrenals. Based on these multipotent properties the knowledge of the function of sPLA2-IIA during inflammation is a fundamental prerequisite for the development and establishment of new therapeutic strategies to prevent and treat severe inflammatory diseases up to and including sepsis.

Abstract
Inflammation occurs in response to tissue injury or the presence of foreign antigens and is important in the mobilization of specific immunologic and nonimmunologic defenses against injury. The vascular endothelium is altered to allow immune competent cells to access the interstitial space. Muscle and visceral proteins are catabolized and the amino acids are used either to supply energy or as substrates for the production of acute-phase proteins that play a role in defense. Restoration of muscle mass is impaired while inflammation is on going. Lipids are mobilized. Although serving a vital role in allowing host survival from acute injury or infection, if unimpeded, or if triggered inappropriately, the acute-phase response may instead lead to increased vascular injury and progressive loss of muscle and visceral protein pools causing malnutrition. Markers of inflammation (C reactive protein [CRP] or interleukin-6 [IL-6] levels) are associated with cardiovascular risk in the general population and in dialysis patients. Hypoalbuminemia also is associated with cardiovascular risk in dialysis patients. Although albumin is considered a marker of nutrition, changes in albumin levels are associated with increased levels of acute-phase proteins. Persistent changes in albumin levels are caused by reduced albumin synthesis associated with inflammation and not decreased normalized protein catabolic rate. The cause(s) of inflammation must be identified and treated to resolve malnutrition and reduce cardiovascular risk.

Abstract
Mammalian cells have developed specific pathways for the incorporation, remodeling, and release of arachidonic acid. Acyltransferase and transacylase pathways function to regulate the levels of esterified arachidonic acid in specific phospholipid pools. There are several distinct, differentially regulated phospholipases A2in cells that mediate agonist-induced release of arachidonic acid. These pathways are important in controlling cellular levels of free arachidonic acid. Both arachidonic acid and its oxygenated metabolites are potent bioactive mediators that regulate a myriad of physiological and pathophysiological processes.Key words: phospholipase A2, arachidonic acid, eicosanoid, phospholipid.

Abstract
The inflammation that occurs during rheumatoid arthritis or atherosclerosis is characterized by the release of large amounts of sPLA(2) (group IIA secretory phospholipase A(2)). We have shown previously that the sPLA(2) promoter in SMC (smooth-muscle cells) is activated by interleukin-1beta and cAMP-signalling pathways, through the interplay of multiple transcription factors [Antonio, Brouillet, Janvier, Monne, Bereziat, Andreani, and Raymondjean (2002) Biochem. J. 368, 415-424]. In the present study, we have investigated the regulation of sPLA(2) gene expression in rat aortic SMCs by oxysterols. We found that oxysterol ligands that bind to the LXR (liver X receptor), including 25-HC (25-hydroxycholesterol) and 22( R )-HC, cause the accumulation of sPLA(2) mRNA and an increased enzyme activity. Transient transfection experiments demonstrated that the sPLA(2) promoter is synergistically activated by 22( R )-HC in combination with 9- cis -retinoic acid, a ligand for the LXR heterodimeric partner RXR (retinoid X receptor). Promoter activity was also increased in a sterol-responsive fashion when cells were co-transfected with LXRalpha/RXRalpha or LXRbeta/RXRalpha. Mutagenesis studies and gel mobility-shift assays revealed that LXR/RXR heterodimers regulate sPLA(2) transcription directly, by interacting with a degenerated LXRE (LXR response element) at position [-421/-406] of the sPLA(2) promoter. Chromatin immunoprecipitation revealed the in vivo occupancy of LXR on the sPLA(2) promoter. In addition, the orphan nuclear receptor LRH-1 (liver receptor homologue-1) potentiated the sterol-dependent regulation of the sPLA(2) promoter by binding to an identified promoter element (TCAAGGCTG). Finally, we have demonstrated that oxysterols act independent of interleukin-1beta and cAMP pathways to activate the sPLA(2) promoter. In the present study, we have identified a new pathway activating sPLA(2) gene expression in SMCs.

Abstract
Group IIA secreted phospholipase A(2) (sPLA(2)-IIA) is the most abundant element in human tissues of a large family of low molecular weight phospholipases A(2), which shows properties different from those displayed by the cytosolic phospholipase A(2) involved in the release of arachidonic acid. sPLA(2)-IIA behaves as a ligand for a group of receptors inside the C-type multilectin mannose receptor family and also interacts with heparan sulfate proteoglycans such as glypican, the dermatan/chondroitin sulfate-rich decorin, and the chondroitin sulfate-rich versican, thus being able to internalize to specific compartments within the cell and producing biological responses. This review provides a short summary of the biological actions of sPLA(2)-IIA on intracellular signaling pathways.

Abstract
Several studies indicate that light-to-moderate alcohol consumption is associated with a low prevalence of coronary heart disease. An increase in high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol is associated with alcohol intake and appears to account for approximately half of alcohol's cardioprotective effect. In addition to changes in the concentration and composition of lipoproteins, alcohol consumption may alter the activities of plasma proteins and enzymes involved in lipoprotein metabolism: cholesteryl ester transfer protein, phospholipid transfer protein, lecithin:cholesterol acyltransferase, lipoprotein lipase, hepatic lipase, paraoxonase-1 and phospholipases. Alcohol intake also results in modifications of lipoprotein particles: low sialic acid content in apolipoprotein components of lipoprotein particles (e.g., HDL apo E and apo J) and acetaldehyde modification of apolipoproteins. In addition, "abnormal" lipids, phosphatidylethanol, and fatty acid ethyl esters formed in the presence of ethanol are associated with lipoproteins in plasma. The effects of lipoproteins on the vascular wall cells (endothelial cells, smooth muscle cells, and monocyte/macrophages) may be modulated by ethanol and the alterations further enhanced by modified lipids. The present review discusses the effects of alcohol on lipoproteins in cholesterol transport, as well as the novel effects of lipoproteins on vascular wall cells.

Abstract
Type IIA secretory phospholipase A(2) (sPLA(2)) is an acute-phase reactant that plays a role in atherogenesis and is expressed in atherosclerotic arterial walls displaying inflammatory features. This generates a relevant question addressing the biological effects of this enzyme on monocytic cells, in view of the role of these cells in the inflammatory process associated with atherosclerosis. sPLA(2) produced a mild activation of the p42 mitogen-activated protein module of the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) cascade and a prominent activation of c-Jun N-terminal kinase in THP-1 monocytes. This activation showed both an early and a late peak, different from that elicited by tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha), which only showed the first peak. This was accompanied by activation of arachidonate metabolism, as judged from both the activation of the cytosolic phospholipase A(2) (cPLA(2)) and the induction of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) expression. sPLA(2) also elicited the production of monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) and showed a synergistic effect with TNF-alpha on both COX-2 induction and MCP-1 production. sPLA(2) upregulated the expression of Fas ligand at the cell surface, but it did not influence Fas expression nor cell survival of monocytes. In summary, these data indicate that some of the atherogenic effects of sPLA(2) can be exerted by engagement of an sPLA(2)-binding structure on monocytic cells, most probably the M-type receptor for sPLA(2), which produces the activation of the MAPK cascade, induces a proinflammatory phenotype, and upregulates the cell surface expression of Fas ligand.
