Leucocyte recruitment induced by type II phospholipases A(2) into the rat pleural cavity.

Only registered users can translate articles

Bothropstoxin-I (BthTX-I) and bothropstoxin-II (BthTX-II) are Lys-49 and Asp-49 phospholipases A(2) (PLA(2)s), respectively, isolated from Bothrops jararacussu venom. Piratoxin-I (PrTX-I) is a Lys-49 PLA(2) isolated from Bothrops pirajai venom. In this study, the ability of BthTX-I, BthTX-II and

Glucocorticoids induce the formation and release of anti-inflammatory and anti-phospholipase proteins into the peritoneal cavity of the rat.

1 Dexamethasone and hydrocortisone induced the release of anti-phospholipase proteins into the peritoneal cavities of rats. 2 Adrenocorticotrophic hormone (ACTH) also releases these proteins in normal but not in adrenalectomized rats. 3 Peritoneal lavage proteins were separated by ion-exchange and

Extracellular phospholipase A2 activity in peritoneal cavity of casein-treated rats.

Only registered users can translate articles

An extracellular phospholipase A2 was detected in the peritoneal cavity of rats injected intraperitoneally with casein. This activity required Ca2+ ion and had a pH optimum of 9. The increase of phospholipase A2 activity in the peritoneal fluid as a function of time roughly paralleled the increase

Comparison Between Biofilm Production, Phospholipase and Haemolytic Activity of Different Species of Candida Isolated from Dental Caries Lesions in Children.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND C.albicans is the most commonly isolated fungal pathogen in the oral cavity, but isolation of non-albicans Candida is increasing in recent years. We wish to demonstrate the virulence factors of Candida spp. isolated from the dental caries lesion of the children as presence of virulence

Purification and characterization of extracellular phospholipase A2 from peritoneal cavity of caseinate-treated rat.

Only registered users can translate articles

Peritoneal exudate produced in rat injected with caseinate contained extracellular phospholipase A2. The activity required Ca2+ ion and had a pH optimum of 9 (Chang, H.W., Kudo, I., Hara, S., Karasawa, K., & Inoue, K. (1986) J. Biochem. 100, 1099-1101). This phospholipase A2 was purified about

Phospholipase, proteinase and haemolytic activities of Candida albicans isolated from oral cavities of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Only registered users can translate articles

The aim of this study was to biotype and characterize phospholipase, proteinase and haemolytic activities of oral Candida albicans isolates from 210 Chinese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) and 210 age- and sex-matched healthy controls. Seventy-six and 50 C. albicans isolates were

RdgBα reciprocally transfers PA and PI at ER-PM contact sites to maintain PI(4,5)P2 homoeostasis during phospholipase C signalling in Drosophila photoreceptors.

Only registered users can translate articles

Phosphatidylinositol (PI) is the precursor lipid for the synthesis of PI 4,5-bisphosphate [PI(4,5)P2] at the plasma membrane (PM) and is sequentially phosphorylated by the lipid kinases, PI 4-kinase and phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PI4P)-5-kinase. Receptor-mediated hydrolysis of PI(4,5)P2 takes

Phospholipase A2 activity in body fluids and pancreatic tissue in patients with acute necrotising pancreatitis.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE To measure pancreatic and non-pancreatic phospholipase A2 activity in human acute necrotising pancreatitis. METHODS Prospective study. METHODS University hospital, Finland. METHODS 20 patients with acute necrotising pancreatitis. METHODS Serum and urine samples were taken daily for a week

Comparison of Candida species isolated from children with and without early childhood caries: A descriptive cross-sectional study.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Early childhood caries (ECC) is characterized by the presence of one or more decayed, missing (due to caries), or filled teeth surfaces in any primary tooth, in a child below 6 years of age. Although ECC is primarily associated with high levels of maternal Streptococcus mutans, there has

Structural analysis of a group III Glu62-phospholipase A2 from the scorpion, Mesobuthus tamulus: Targeting and reversible inhibition by native peptides.

Only registered users can translate articles

Group III phospholipase A(2) enzyme transcript from the Mesobuthus tamulus (Indian red scorpion) codes for three distinct products that include a large enzymatic subunit, a pentameric peptide and a small non-enzymatic subunit. The structures of these two subunits were modeled based on their sequence

Accumulation of platelet-activating factor acetylhydrolase in the peritoneal cavity of guinea pig after endotoxin shock.

Only registered users can translate articles

We examined the production of PAF, a mediator of shock, and LysoPAF, an inactive metabolite of PAF, in the guinea pig peritoneal cavity after i.p. administration of Escherichia coli LPS. Within 1 h of LPS administration, the level of PAF in the peritoneal fluid increased from 4.9 to 37.2 pmol/animal

Phospholipase A2-induced pleural inflammation in rats.

Only registered users can translate articles

Injection of Naja mocambique mocambique phospholipase A2 [PLA2] into the rat pleural cavity induced dose- and time-dependent fluid accumulation and cellular infiltration. The time course of the cell influx was initially neutrophilic [2-6 h] and later mononuclear [6-24 h]. During reverse passive

Recombinant secreted nonpancreatic phospholipase A2 induces a synovitis-like inflammation in the rat air pouch.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to test the proinflammatory action of human secreted phospholipase A2 (sPLA2) in an animal model of synovitis-like inflammation and to compare it with a Group 1 (porcine pancreatic) and a Group 2 (Naja mocambique mocambique) PLA2. METHODS The subcutaneous

Protein interactions between the C-terminus of Aβ-peptide and phospholipase A2--a structure biology based approach to identify novel Alzheimer's therapeutics.

Only registered users can translate articles

Amyloid β (Aβ) polypeptide plays a key role in determining the state of protein aggregation in Alzheimer's disease. The hydrophobic C-terminal part of the Aβ peptide is critical in triggering the transformation from α-helical to β- sheet structure. We hypothesized that phospholipase A2 (PLA2) may

Crystal structures of an acidic phospholipase A(2) from the venom of Naja Kaouthia.

Only registered users can translate articles

A phospholipase A(2) purified from the venom of Naja kaouthia (Guangxi cobra) exhibits anticoagulant activities. The structures of two crystal forms were determined by X-ray crystallography at 2.8A resolution with the Naja naja (India cobra) PLA(2) as an initial model. The enzyme exhibits a trimer
