119 8529805 In addition, the finding that the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAP kinase) pathway was tyrosine phosphorylated, and presumably activated, in endothelial cells after an increase in [Ca2+]i has wideranging implications for these cells.
120 8529805 Indeed, MAP kinase recognizes many different substrates in the cell, including growth factor receptors, microtubule-associated proteins, specific serine-threonine protein kinases, phospholipase A2, and transcription factors.
121 8529805 Indeed, this mediator, which seems to be an endothelium-derived, cytochrome P450-derived metabolite of arachidonic acid, would now appear to represent a substantial constitutive component of the vasodilator response to bradykinin.
122 8557627 Interleukin-1 enhances pancreatic islet arachidonic acid 12-lipoxygenase product generation by increasing substrate availability through a nitric oxide-dependent mechanism.
123 8557627 Interleukin-1 (IL-1) impairs insulin secretion from pancreatic islets and may contribute to the pathogenesis of insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus.
124 8557627 IL-1 increases islet expression of nitric oxide (NO) synthase, and the resultant overproduction of NO participates in inhibition of insulin secretion because NO synthase inhibitors, e.g.
125 8557627 While exploring effects of IL-1 on islet arachidonic acid metabolism, we found that IL-1 increases islet production of the 12-lipoxygenase product 12-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid 12-(HETE).
126 8557627 Evidence supporting this conclusion includes the facts that IL-1 does not increase islet 12-lipoxygenase protein or mRNA levels and does not enhance islet conversion of exogenous arachidonate to 12-HETE.
127 8557627 Although IL-1 increases neither islet phospholipase A2 (PLA2) activities nor mRNA levels for cytosolic or secretory PLA2, a suicide substrate which inhibits an islet Ca(2+)-independent PLA2 prevents enhancement of islet arachidonate release by IL-1.
128 8557627 IL-1 also impairs esterification of [3H8]arachidonate into islet phospholipids, and this effect is prevented by NMMA and mimicked by the mitochondrial ATP-synthase inhibitor oligomycin.
129 8557627 Experiments with exogenous substrates indicate that NMMA does not inhibit and that the NO-releasing compound does not activate islet 12-lipoxygenase or PLA2 activities.
130 8557627 Interleukin-1 enhances pancreatic islet arachidonic acid 12-lipoxygenase product generation by increasing substrate availability through a nitric oxide-dependent mechanism.

143 9005967 Effect of inhibition of aldose reductase on glucose flux, diacylglycerol formation, protein kinase C, and phospholipase A2 activation.
144 9005967 In explants of glomeruli from control animals, increasing the glucose concentration in vitro from 5.6 mmol/L to 25 mmol/L resulted in a significant increase in the flux of glucose through the pentose phosphate pathway ([PPP] 1.29 +/- 0.08 v 2.00 +/- 0.11 nmol/h), de novo diacylglycerol synthesis (2.2 +/- 0.1 v 3.1 +/- 0.2 micromol/mg protein), membrane protein kinase C (PKC) activity (18.7 +/- 0.5 v 24.3 +/- 0.75 pmol/microg protein), and in vitro phospholipase A2 (PLA2) activity (2.18 +/- 0.46 v 3.83 +/- 1.07 nmol arachidonic acid hydrolyzed/min/mg cytosolic protein).

147 9133554 Herein, we provide the evidence that mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) cascade, an important kinase cascade downstream to PKC and an activator of cytosolic phospholipase A2 (cPLA2) by direct phosphorylation, is activated in glomeruli isolated from streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats.
148 9133554 Furthermore, the activities of cPLA2 also increased in cells cultured under the same conditions and this activation was inhibited by both calphostin C and PD 098059, an inhibitor of MEK (MAPK or extracellular signal-regulated kinase [ERK] kinase).
149 9133554 Activated MAPK, in turn, may induce various functional changes of mesangial cells at least through the activation of cPLA2 and contribute to the development of diabetic nephropathy.

156 9150250 Positional distribution of labelled palmitate from sn-1 position palmitate-labelled lysophosphatidylcholine showed distribution to both sn-1 and sn-2 position of the phosphatidylcholine formed with a significantly increased sn-2 position labelling in diabetes.
157 9150250 In preparations from diabetic animals phosphatidylethanolamine formed in this manner was increased in the presence of an inhibitor of cytosolic phospholipase A2, indicating that it may provide a substrate for phospholipase A2 activity; an effect not seen in cultured cells maintained at raised glucose concentrations.
158 9440807 Thus, iodide decreases the formation of Mod-1, an enhancer A complex involving the p50 subunit of NF-kappa B and a c-fos family member, fra-2, which was previously shown to be important in the suppression of class I levels by hydrocortisone.
159 9440807 Unlike hydrocortisone, iodide also increases the formation of a complex with enhancer A, which we show, in antibody shift experiments, is a heterodimer of the p50 and p65 subunits of NF-kappa B.
160 9440807 Second, the effect of iodide on class I RNA levels and on enhancer A complex formation with Mod-1 and the p50/p65 heterodimer is inhibited by agents that block the inositol phosphate, Ca++, phospholipase A2, arachidonate signal transduction pathway: acetylsalicylate, indomethacin, and 5,8,11,14-eicosatetraynoic acid.
161 9440807 Interestingly, iodide can also decrease formation of the Mod-1 complex and increase formation of the complex with the p50/p65 subunits of NF-kappa B when the NF-kappa B enhancer sequence from the Ig kappa light chain, rather than enhancer A, is used as probe; and both actions mimic the action of a phorbol ester.
162 9487151 Type IB secretory phospholipase A2 is contained in insulin secretory granules of pancreatic islet beta-cells and is co-secreted with insulin from glucose-stimulated islets.
163 9487151 Subcellular fractionation studies indicate that sPLA2 activity and type IB sPLA2 immunoreactive protein are contained in insulin secretory granules.
164 9487151 Stimulation of intact islets with insulin secretagogues results in the co-secretion of insulin and of sPLA2 activity and type IB sPLA2 immunoreactive protein into the incubation medium.

181 9726232 Ca2+-independent phospholipase A2 contributes to the insulinotropic action of cholecystokinin-8 in rat islets: dissociation from the mechanism of carbachol.
182 9726232 Insulin secretion induced by cholecystokinin-8 (CCK-8) was recently suggested to involve phospholipase A2 (PLA2) activation.
183 9726232 We found that CCK-8 (100 nmol/l; 5.6 mmol/l glucose) induces lysophosphatidylcholine accumulation from [3H]palmitate-prelabeled islets (170 +/- 39%; P = 0.003) as well as arachidonic acid (AA) efflux from [3H]AA-prelabeled islets (190 +/- 13%; P < 0.001), and that p-amylcinnamoylantranilic acid (ACA) (50 micromol/l)-mediated PLA2 inhibition reduces CCK-8-induced AA efflux (52 +/- 11%; P = 0.001) and insulin secretion (67 +/- 16%; P < 0.001).
184 9726232 Overnight protein kinase C (PKC) downregulation by 12-O-tetradecanoyl phorbol-13-acetate (TPA) (500 nmol/l) reduced CCK-8-induced AA efflux (45 +/- 12%; P = 0.003) and insulin secretion (40 +/- 16%; P = 0.020).
185 9726232 No additive action regarding either AA formation or insulin secretion was seen by combining TPA overnight and ACA, which implies the involvement of an additional PLA2- and PKC-independent signaling mechanism.

201 9792538 The effects were nullified by the muscarinic inhibitor atropine, phospholipase C (PLC) inhibitors (D 609 and compound 48/80), and pretreatment with the Ca2+ pump inhibitor, thapsigargin.
202 9792538 Inhibitors of Ca2+-dependent phospholipase A2 (arachidonyl trifluoromethyl ketone and methyl arachidonyl fluorophosphate) also partially inhibited the movement caused by acetylcholine, but downregulation of protein kinase C by overnight incubation with the phorbol ester 12-o-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate failed to exert any influence.
203 9792538 The calmodulin inhibitor W-7 and the myosin light-chain kinase inhibitor ML-9 decreased the motile events in the beta-cells under both nonstimulated and acetylcholine-stimulated conditions.
204 9792538 These findings led us to conclude that inositol trisphosphate [corrected] causes Ca2+ mobilization by muscarinic activation of PLC, leading to intracellular translocation of insulin granules to the ready-releasable pool in pancreatic beta-cells via Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent phosphorylation of myosin light chains.
205 9890957 An effect mediated via Ca2+-independent phospholipase A2 and protein kinase C-dependent phosphorylation of the alpha-subunit.
206 9890957 This effect, like that of glucose, was blocked by nordihydroguaiaretic acid, a selective inhibitor of the lipooxygenase metabolic pathway, but not by inhibitors of the cyclooxygenase or cytochrome P450-monooxygenase pathways.
207 10092647 Human pancreatic islets express mRNA species encoding two distinct catalytically active isoforms of group VI phospholipase A2 (iPLA2) that arise from an exon-skipping mechanism of alternative splicing of the transcript from the iPLA2 gene on chromosome 22q13.1.

213 10318801 An 84-kDa group VI phospholipase A2 (iPLA2) that does not require Ca2+ for catalysis has been cloned from Chinese hamster ovary cells, murine P388D1 cells, and pancreatic islet beta-cells.
214 10318801 Electrospray ionization mass spectrometric measurements indicated that inhibition of INS-1 cell iPLA2 accelerated arachidonate incorporation into PC and that inhibition of islet iPLA2 reduced LPC levels by 25%, suggesting that LPC mass does not limit arachidonate incorporation into islet PC.
215 10318801 In islets and INS-1 cells, iPLA2 is thus not required for arachidonate incorporation or phospholipid remodeling and may play other roles in these cells.

221 10482042 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).
222 10748096 A group VI PLA(2) (iPLA(2)) that is sensitive to a bromoenol lactone inhibitor catalyzes arachidonate hydrolysis from phospholipids in some cells and facilitates arachidonate incorporation into glycerophosphocholine (GPC) lipids in others, but it is not known whether U937 cells express iPLA(2).
223 10748096 DAG promotes arachidonate release by a mechanism that does not require DAG hydrolysis, is largely independent of protein kinase C, and requires cPLA(2) activity.

225 10748096 DAG promotes arachidonate release by a mechanism that does not require DAG hydrolysis, is largely independent of protein kinase C, and requires cPLA(2) activity.
226 10833448 We studied whether islet phospholipase A(2) (PLA(2)) contributes by using C57BL/6J mice fed a high-fat diet, since we previously showed that the insulin responses to the two PLA(2)-activating insulin secretagogues carbachol and cholecystokinin (CCK) are enhanced in this model.
227 10833448 CCK (100 nM) and carbachol (100 microM) stimulated [(3)H]AA efflux, reflecting PLA(2) activation, both in islets from mice after 12 weeks on high-fat diet and in controls.
228 10833448 Also a direct PLA(2) activation by mellitin (2 microg/ml) elicited a potentiated efflux in islets from the insulin-resistant mice (by 361 +/- 107%; P = 0.002).
229 10833448 The results suggest that exaggerated non-glucose-induced PLA(2) activation contributes to the islet compensation in insulin resistance.

236 10833448 Also a direct PLA(2) activation by mellitin (2 microg/ml) elicited a potentiated efflux in islets from the insulin-resistant mice (by 361 +/- 107%; P = 0.002).
237 10833448 The results suggest that exaggerated non-glucose-induced PLA(2) activation contributes to the islet compensation in insulin resistance.
238 10893319 We measured ventricular PLA(2) activity in control, streptozotocin-induced diabetic, and insulin-treated diabetic rats and characterized myocardial phospholipids to determine whether diabetes altered myocardial phospholipid metabolism.
239 10893319 Diabetes-induced changes in PLA(2) activity, lysophospholipid production, and alterations in phospholipid composition were all reversed by insulin treatment of diabetic animals.

242 11278673 Studies of insulin secretory responses and of arachidonic acid incorporation into phospholipids of stably transfected insulinoma cells that overexpress group VIA phospholipase A2 (iPLA2beta ) indicate a signaling rather than a housekeeping role for iPLA2beta.
243 11756328 Perifusion experiments indicated that cPLA(2) underexpressing MIN6 pseudoislets responded to glucose, tolbutamide, and KCl with insulin secretory profiles similar to those of cPLA(2) expressing pseudoislets, but that secretion was not maintained with continued stimulus.
244 11756328 These data are consistent with a role for cPLA(2) in the maintenance of insulin stores, but they suggest that it is not required for the initiation of insulin secretion from beta-cells.

247 11810496 Latent inflammatory reactions were assessed based on blood cell analysis, erythrocyte sedimentation rate, serum C-reactive protein, and serum phospholipase A2 activity before and the day after the endoscopic treatment.
248 11882337 Fasting plasma concentrations of the inflammatory markers C-reactive protein (CRP), secretory phospholipase A2 (sPLA2) and soluble intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (sICAM-1) and of the endothelial markers E-selectin and von Willebrand factor (vWF) were measured in 32 non-diabetic Pima Indians (18 M/14 F, age 27+/-1 years) in whom percent body fat and insulin-stimulated glucose disposal (M) were assessed by DEXA and a hyperinsulinemic clamp, respectively.
249 11882337 CRP, sPLA2, and sICAM-1 were all positively correlated with percent body fat (r=0.71, 0.57, and 0.51, all P<0.01).
250 11882337 E-selectin and vWF were not correlated with percent body fat, but were negatively correlated with M (r= -0.65 and -0.46, both P<0.001) and positively correlated with CRP (r=0.46, and 0.33, both P<0.05).

312 12647268 Expression of monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) mRNA and nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-kappaB)-DNA binding activity were determined in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) incubated with native or glycoxidized LDL, LDL modified by phospholipase A2 (PLA2) and LDL isolated from diabetic patients.
313 12647268 Glycoxidized LDL and enrichment of lyso-PC by PLA2 treatment resulted in upregulation of MCP-1 mRNA expression through increased NF-kappaB activity in HUVEC.

327 12867534 Platelet-activating factor acetylhydrolase (PAF-AH) is a phospholipase A2 associated with lipoproteins that hydrolyzes platelet-activating factor (PAF) and oxidized phospholipids.
328 12867534 In healthy subjects, plasma total PAF-AH concentration was positively correlated with PAF-AH activity and with plasma total cholesterol, triacylglycerol, LDL cholesterol and apolipoprotein B (apoB) concentrations (all P < 0.01).
329 12867534 Both hyperlipidemic and diabetic subjects had lower ratios of PAF-AH to apoB (P < 0.01) and higher ratios of PAF-AH to apoA-I (P < 0.01) than did controls.
330 12957654 Activation of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase/cytosolic phospholipase A2 cascade in hydroperoxide-stressed platelets.
331 12957654 Exogenous 12-HpETE activated platelet p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (p38 MAPK), as assessed by its phosphorylation, at a concentration as low as 100 nM and was much more potent than hydrogen peroxide.
332 12957654 Moreover, the incubation of platelets with 100 nM 12-HpETE for 2 min led to the phosphorylation of cytosolic phospholipase A2 (cPLA2).
333 12957654 Additionally, decreasing glutathione peroxidase activity pharmacologically favored endogenous 12-HpETE formation and led to an increase in phosphorylated p38 MAPK, while a thiol-reducing agent such as N-acetyl-cysteine fully prevented it.
334 12957654 Finally, significant activation of p38 MAPK was also observed in platelets from type 2 diabetic patients with mild hyperglycemia.
335 12957654 In conclusion, our data provide a new insight into the mechanism of 12-HpETE-induced platelet priming, suggesting that hydroperoxide-induced p38 MAPK activation could play a relevant role in the exacerbated platelet activation associated with oxidative stress as found in diabetes.
336 12966666 Among these factors, the inflammatory process has been pointed out in which acute stage reactants participate, such as C-reactive protein, leukocyte count, globular sedimentation, multiple cytokines, alpha tumor necrosis factor, vascular and cellular adhesion molecules, some metalloproteinases, pregnancy-associated plasma protein A, lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2, angiotensin II, and very probably infection.

340 14749284 Studies using relatively nonselective pharmacological inhibitors have implicated cPLA(2) in insulin secretory responses to stimuli that elevate beta-cell [Ca(2+)](i); therefore, we have investigated the role of cPLA(2) in beta-cell function by generating beta-cell lines that under- or overexpress the alpha-isoform of cPLA(2).
341 14749284 The functional phenotype of the modified cells was assessed by observation of cellular ultrastructure, by measuring insulin gene expression and insulin protein content, and by measuring the effects of insulin secretagogues on cPLA(2) distribution, on changes in [Ca(2+)](i), and on the rate and pattern of insulin secretion.

361 15616018 Overexpression of cPLA(2) did not affect the capacity of MIN6 cells to show elevations in intracellular Ca(2+) concentration ([Ca(2+)](i)) in response to tolbutamide and KCl, and these depolarizing stimuli produced insulin secretion profiles in cPLA(2)-overexpressing cells similar to those they produced in passage-matched nontransfected MIN6 cells.
362 15616018 Quantitative RT-PCR indicated that mRNA for uncoupling protein-2 (UCP-2) was increased in the cPLA(2)-overexpressing MIN6 cells, and this could be prevented by exposure to 100 mumol/l methyl arachidonyl fluorophosphate, a cPLA(2) inhibitor.

370 16151023 This gene silencing markedly inhibited VEGF-induced platelet endothelial cell adhesion molecule-1 (PECAM-1) expression and angiogenesis.
371 16151023 Second, we used D-threo-1-phenyl-2-decanoylamino-3-morpholino-1-propanol (D-PDMP), an inhibitor of LacCer synthase and glucosylceramide synthase, that significantly mitigated VEGF-induced PECAM-1 expression and angiogenesis.
372 16151023 In a human mesothelioma cell line (REN) that lacks the endogenous expression of PECAM-1, VEGF/LacCer failed to stimulate PECAM-1 expression and tube formation/angiogenesis.
373 16151023 In REN cells expressing human PECAM-1 gene/protein, however, both VEGF and LacCer-induced PECAM-1 protein expression and tube formation/angiogenesis.
374 16151023 In fact, VEGF-induced but not LacCer-induced angiogenesis was mitigated by SU-1498, a VEGF receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor.
375 16151023 Also, VEGF/LacCer-induced PECAM-1 expression and angiogenesis was mitigated by protein kinase C and phospholipase A2 inhibitors.
376 16151023 These results indicate that LacCer generated in VEGF-treated endothelial cells may serve as an important signaling molecule for PECAM-1 expression and in angiogenesis.

378 16492706 Disruption of G1-phase phospholipid turnover by inhibition of Ca2+-independent phospholipase A2 induces a p53-dependent cell-cycle arrest in G1 phase.
379 16492706 Cells regulate this turnover by coordinating the opposing actions of CTP:phosphocholine cytidylyltransferase and the group VI Ca2+-independent phospholipase A2 (iPLA2).
380 16492706 This G1-phase arrest was associated with marked upregulation of the tumour suppressor p53 and the expression of cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor p21cip1.
381 16492706 Inactivation of iPLA2 failed to arrest p53-deficient HCT cells in the G1 phase and caused massive apoptosis of p21-deficient HCT cells, suggesting that this G1-phase arrest requires activation of p53 and expression of p21cip1.
382 16492706 Furthermore, downregulation of p53 by siRNA in p21-deficient HCT cells reduced the cell death, indicating that inhibition of iPLA2 induced p53-dependent apoptosis in the absence of p21cip1.
383 16492706 Thus, our study reveals hitherto unrecognized cooperation between p53 and iPLA2 to monitor membrane-phospholipid turnover in G1 phase.
384 16492706 Disrupting the G1-phase phospholipid turnover by inhibition of iPLA2 activates the p53-p21cip1 checkpoint mechanism, thereby blocking the entry of G1-phase cells into S phase.

392 16728389 Calcium-independent phospholipase A2 localizes in and protects mitochondria during apoptotic induction by staurosporine.
393 16728389 Under physiological conditions mitochondria can repair peroxidative damage in part through a remodeling mechanism via the deacylation-reacylation cycle mediated by phospholipase A2 (PLA2) and acyl-coenzyme A-dependent monolysocardiolipin acyltransferase.
394 16728389 Here we investigate whether group VIA Ca2+-independent PLA2 (iPLA2) plays a role in the protection of mitochondrial function from damage caused by mitochondrially generated ROS during apoptotic induction by staurosporine (STS).
395 16728389 Expression of iPLA2 in INS-1 cells prevented the loss of mitochondrial membrane potential, attenuated the release of cytochrome c, Smac/DIABLO, and apoptosis inducing factor from mitochondria, and reduced mitochondrial reactive oxygen species production.
396 16728389 Finally, we found that STS down-regulated endogenous iPLA2 transcription in both INS-1 and iPLA2-expressing INS-1 cells without affecting the expression of group IV Ca2+-dependent PLA2.

402 17060536 High-sensitivity C-reactive protein, lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2, and outcome after ischemic stroke.
403 17130640 The third arm involves FFA stimulation of the G-protein-coupled receptor GPR40/FFAR1, which results in enhancement of glucose-stimulated accumulation of cytosolic Ca2+ and consequently insulin secretion.
404 17130640 Glucose-stimulated release of arachidonic acid from phospholipids by calcium-independent phospholipase A2 and/or from TG/FFA cycling may also be involved.
405 17192482 The roles played by arachidonic acid and its cyclooxygenase (COX)-generated and lipoxygenase (LOX)-generated metabolites have been studied using rodent islets and insulin-secreting cell lines, but very little is known about COX and LOX isoform expression and the effects of modulation of arachidonic acid generation and metabolism in human islets.
406 17192482 We have used RT-PCR to identify mRNAs for cytosolic phospholipase A(2) (cPLA(2)), COX-1, COX-2, 5-LOX, and 12-LOX in isolated human islets.
407 17192482 Perifusion experiments with human islets indicated that PLA(2) inhibition inhibited glucose-stimulated insulin secretion, whereas inhibitors of COX-2 and 12-LOX enzymes enhanced basal insulin secretion and also secretory responses induced by 20 mmol/l glucose or by 50 mumol/l arachidonic acid.
408 17192482 Inhibition of COX-1 with 100 mumol/l acetaminophen did not significantly affect glucose-stimulated insulin secretion.
409 17192482 These data indicate that the stimulation of insulin secretion from human islets in response to arachidonic acid does not require its metabolism through COX-2 and 5-/12-LOX pathways.
410 17192482 The products of COX-2 and LOX activities have been implicated in cytokine-mediated damage of beta-cells, so selective inhibitors of these enzymes would be expected to have a dual protective role in diabetes: they would minimize beta-cell dysfunction while maintaining insulin secretion through enhancing endogenous arachidonic acid levels.
411 17873277 Class A scavenger receptor-mediated macrophage adhesion requires coupling of calcium-independent phospholipase A(2) and 12/15-lipoxygenase to Rac and Cdc42 activation.
412 17873277 SR-A-dependent macrophage adhesion was abolished by selectively inhibiting calcium-independent PLA(2) (iPLA(2)) activity and absent in macrophages isolated from iPLA(2) beta(-/-) mice.
413 17873277 Our results further demonstrate that 12/15-lipoxygenase (12/15-LOX)-derived, but not cyclooxygenase- or cytochrome P450-dependent epoxygenase-derived AA metabolites, are specifically required for SR-A-dependent adhesion.
414 17873277 Because of their role in regulating actin polymerization and cell adhesion, Rac and Cdc42 activation were also examined and shown to be increased via an iPLA(2)- and LOX-dependent pathway.
415 17873277 Together, our results identify a novel role for iPLA(2)-catalyzed AA release and its metabolism by 12/15-LOX in coupling SR-A-mediated macrophage adhesion to Rac and Cdc42 activation.

417 18931027 Endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) activation with subsequent inducible NOS (iNOS), cytosolic phospholipase A2 (cPLA2), and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX2) activation is essential to statin inhibition of myocardial infarct size (IS).
418 18931027 In the rat, the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma agonist pioglitazone (Pio) limits IS, upregulates and activates cPLA2 and COX2, and increases myocardial 6-keto-PGF1alpha levels without activating eNOS and iNOS.

456 19449149 This study investigated the correlation of sPLA2 (secretory phospholipase A2) activity with the atheromatosis extent in subjects with coronary artery disease (CAD) undergoing coronary angiography.
457 19449149 In a multiple logistic regression model, adjusted for age, gender, body mass index, tabagism, hypertension, sedentarism, family history for coronary artery disease, diabetes mellitus, total cholesterol, HDLc, LDLc, triglycerides, high sensitivity C-reactive protein and phospholipase A2, only sPLA2 was observed to be independently associated with severe CAD (>70% of stenosis) (p < 0.0001).
458 19449149 This study investigated the correlation of sPLA2 (secretory phospholipase A2) activity with the atheromatosis extent in subjects with coronary artery disease (CAD) undergoing coronary angiography.

460 19577003 In particular, significant overexpressions of colipase, phospholipase A2, carboxypeptidases, and receptor tyrosine kinases such as EGFR, erbB2 and fibroblast growth factor receptor were observed in diabetes mesenteric vasculature.
461 19748147 Relations of lysophosphatidylcholine in low-density lipoprotein with serum lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2, paraoxonase and homocysteine thiolactonase activities in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.
462 19947950 TZDs (thiazolidinediones) are prescribed as anti-Type II diabetes drugs, but little is known regarding whether TZDs regulate the expression of sPLA2 (secretory phospholipase A2) in macrophages.
463 19947950 We have investigated the effects of pioglitazone on LPS (lipopolysaccharide)-induced production of TNF-alpha (tumour necrosis factor alpha), sPLA2-V and -X (groups V and X sPLA2) in RAW 264.7 macrophages.
464 20048526 This has stimulated a vigorous search for other correctable risk factors (ie, to explain the remaining incidence [10%-25%]), including genetic anomalies, markers of inflammation (C-reactive protein, lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2), and specific lipid/lipoprotein particles to enhance risk stratification.
465 20053941 There is a gap in the current literature regarding which PLA(2) isoform regulates NADPH oxidase activation.
466 20053941 The nonspecific actions of BEL on phosphatidic acid phosphohydrolase-1, p47(phox) phosphorylation, and apoptosis were ruled out by specific assays.
467 20053941 This study provides evidence for the role of iPLA(2) in enhanced superoxide generation in neutrophils from people with diabetes mellitus and presents an alternate pathway independent of protein kinase C and phosphatidic acid phosphohydrolase-1 hydrolase signaling.
468 20083151 Herein, we offer a general review of Group VIA Ca(2+)-independent PLA(2) (iPLA(2)beta) followed by a more focused discussion of its participation in beta-cell apoptosis.
469 20215528 The Pla2g1b(-/-) mice also displayed increased postprandial hepatic fat utilization due to increased expression of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR)-alpha, PPAR-delta, PPAR-gamma, cd36/Fat, and Ucp2, which coincided with reduced postprandial plasma lysophospholipid levels.
470 20368232 Lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2, C-reactive protein, and coronary artery disease in individuals with type 1 diabetes and macroalbuminuria.
471 20368232 Given the paucity of data in type 1 diabetes concerning lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A( 2) (Lp-PLA(2)), we examined its prospective relationship with coronary artery disease (CAD), as well as the effect of modification by C-reactive protein (CRP) and haptoglobin genotype, in individuals with type 1 diabetes who are at an increased risk for CAD due to also having macroalbuminuria (n=96).
472 20368232 The association between Lp-PLA(2) activity and CAD differs by CRP and haptoglobin genotype in this group of persons with type 1 diabetes and macroalbuminuria.
473 20435073 AGE-BSA (40 microM) induced 3H-arachidonic acid release and reactive oxygen species (ROS) production via cytosolic phospholipase A2 (cPLA2) activation.
474 20435073 AGE-BSA increased binding of NKA to the alpha-adaptin but not beta2- or mu2-adaptin subunits of the AP-2 clathrin pit adaptor complex.
475 20435073 AGEs may stimulate PIP5Kgamma to increase PIP2 production, which may enhance AP-2 localisation to clathrin pits, increase clathrin pit formation, enhance NKA cargo recognition by AP-2 and/or stimulate cPLA2alpha activity.
476 20506110 PA-induced activation of CB(1)R is prevented by the treatment of AACOCF(3) (a cPLA(2) inhibitor), indomethacin and NS398 (a COX 2 inhibitors).
477 20506110 Indeed, PA increased cPLA(2), and COX-2 but not COX-1.
478 20506110 Furthermore, PA decreased GRP78 expression and induced increases in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress signaling pathways p-PERK, p-eIF2α, p-ATF4, and CHOP, which were blocked by AM251 treatment.
479 20506110 Moreover, PA increased the Bax/Bcl-2 ratio, cleaved PARP, and caspase-3 levels.
480 20568408 Elevated concentration of glucose increases generation of reactive oxygen species and accumulation of oxidative modified macromolecules as a result of accelerated activation of a few independent molecular pathways such as autooxidation of monosacharides, non-enzymatic glycosylation, activation of protein kinase C, phospholipase A2 and polyol pathway.
481 20633104 Diminished serotonin production is associated with mental depression while increased formation of kynurenines might contribute to development of MetS/AAND via their apoptotic, neurotoxic, and pro-oxidative effects, and upregulation of inducible nitric oxide synthase, phospholipase A2, arachidonic acid, prostaglandin, 5-lipoxygenase, and leukotriene cascade.
482 20633104 The combined presence of high producers of alleles of polymorphic PIC genes (e.g., interferon-gamma and tumor necrosis factor alpha) might account for the genetic predisposition to high levels of PIC production, leading to "superinduction" of IDO.
483 20938441 Pancreatic acinar cell-specific overexpression of group 1B phospholipase A2 exacerbates diet-induced obesity and insulin resistance in mice.
484 20938441 The present study showed that transgenic mice with pancreatic acinar cell-specific overexpression of the human PLA2G1B gene gained significantly more weight and displayed elevated insulin resistance characteristics, such as impaired glucose tolerance, compared with wild-type (WT) mice, when challenged with a high-fat/carbohydrate diet.

498 21821825 We evaluated whether AA and IC modify CAD risk associated with secretory phospholipase A(2) (sPLA(2)) type IIA mass and activity, lipoprotein-associated PLA(2) activity, lipoprotein (a) [Lp(a)], oxidized phospholipids on apoB-100 (OxPL/apoB), myeloperoxidase, and high sensitivity C-reactive protein.
499 21856926 In arteries from GK rats (vs. those from Wistar rats), 1) ATP- and UTP-induced contractions, which were blocked by the nonselective P2 antagonist suramin, were enhanced, and these enhancements were suppressed by endothelial denudation, by cyclooxygenase (COX) inhibitors, or by a cytosolic phospholipase A(2) (cPLA(2)) inhibitor; 2) both nucleotides induced increased release of PGE(2) and PGF(2α); 3) nucleotide-stimulated cPLA(2) phosphorylations were increased; 4) COX-1 and COX-2 expressions were increased; and 5) neither P2Y2 nor P2Y6 receptor expression differed, but P2Y4 receptor expression was decreased.
500 21856926 Mesenteric arteries from GK rats treated with losartan exhibited (vs. untreated GK) 1) reduced nucleotide-induced contractions, 2) suppressed UTP-induced release of PGE(2) and PGF(2α), 3) suppressed UTP-stimulated cPLA(2) phosphorylation, 4) normalized expressions of COX-2 and P2Y4 receptors, and 5) reduced superoxide generation.
501 21856926 Our data suggest that the diabetes-related enhancement of ATP-mediated vasoconstriction was due to P2Y receptor-mediated activation of the cPLA(2)/COX pathway and, moreover, that losartan normalizes such contractions by a suppressing action within this pathway.
502 21856926 In arteries from GK rats (vs. those from Wistar rats), 1) ATP- and UTP-induced contractions, which were blocked by the nonselective P2 antagonist suramin, were enhanced, and these enhancements were suppressed by endothelial denudation, by cyclooxygenase (COX) inhibitors, or by a cytosolic phospholipase A(2) (cPLA(2)) inhibitor; 2) both nucleotides induced increased release of PGE(2) and PGF(2α); 3) nucleotide-stimulated cPLA(2) phosphorylations were increased; 4) COX-1 and COX-2 expressions were increased; and 5) neither P2Y2 nor P2Y6 receptor expression differed, but P2Y4 receptor expression was decreased.
503 21856926 Mesenteric arteries from GK rats treated with losartan exhibited (vs. untreated GK) 1) reduced nucleotide-induced contractions, 2) suppressed UTP-induced release of PGE(2) and PGF(2α), 3) suppressed UTP-stimulated cPLA(2) phosphorylation, 4) normalized expressions of COX-2 and P2Y4 receptors, and 5) reduced superoxide generation.
504 21856926 Our data suggest that the diabetes-related enhancement of ATP-mediated vasoconstriction was due to P2Y receptor-mediated activation of the cPLA(2)/COX pathway and, moreover, that losartan normalizes such contractions by a suppressing action within this pathway.
505 22010346 These results indicated that Tangshen Formula was capable in regulating and improving phospholipids metabolism in diabetic nephropathy patients, which may be related with the direct or indirect inhibition of protein kinase C pathway and the corresponding reduction of phospholipase A2 activity.
506 23644407 This article reviews the current evidence on new and emerging risk factors for CHD and their current utility in screening, specifically focusing on coronary artery calcium score, C-reactive protein, lipoprotein (a), carotid intima-media thickness, homocysteine, lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2, as well as high-density lipoprotein functionality.
507 23977134 While BEL is recognized as a more potent inhibitor of iPLA2 than of cPLA2 or sPLA2, leading to its designation as a "specific" inhibitor of iPLA2, it has been shown to also inhibit non-PLA2 enzymes.
