Journal ArticleDOI

Properties of the Group IV phospholipase A2 family.

TL;DR: Group IV phospholipase A2 alpha, the most extensively studied Group IV PLA2, is widely expressed in mammalian cells and mediates the production of functionally diverse lipid products in response to extracellular stimuli.
Journal ArticleDOI

Regulation of Cytosolic Phospholipase A2 Activation and Cyclooxygenase 2 Expression in Macrophages by the β-Glucan Receptor

TL;DR: The results suggest that cytosolic phospholipase A2 activation triggered by the β-glucan component of yeast is dependent on the immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motif-like domain of dectin-1 and activation of Syk kinase, whereas both TLR2 and SyK kinase regulate COX2 expression.
Journal ArticleDOI

TNF-α Inhibits Macrophage Clearance of Apoptotic Cells via Cytosolic Phospholipase A2 and Oxidant-Dependent Mechanisms

TL;DR: The data suggest that macrophages in a TNF-α- and oxidant-rich inflammatory environment are less able to remove apoptotic cells and, thereby, may contribute to the local intensity of the inflammatory response.
Journal ArticleDOI

Enzymatic Properties of Human Cytosolic Phospholipase A2γ

TL;DR: The enzymatic properties of cytosolic phospholipase A2γ (cPLA2γ), an isoform of 85-kDa group IV cPLA2α (c PLA2α) were studied in vitro and when the enzyme was expressed in cells, resulting in results primarily in arachidonic acid release.
Journal ArticleDOI

Context-Dependent Differentiation of Multipotential Keratin 14–Expressing Tracheal Basal Cells

TL;DR: Lineage tracing of tracheobronchial basal cells after naphthalene injury or in the postnatal period demonstrated that basal cells were MP progenitors for Clara-like and ciliated cells, and it was shown that sK14EC were unipotential in the normal epithelium and MP after NA.
