Neurodegeneration associated with genetic defects in phospholipase A(2).
OBJECTIVE Mutations in the gene encoding phospholipase A(2) group VI (PLA2G6) are associated with two childhood neurologic disorders: infantile neuroaxonal dystrophy (INAD) and idiopathic neurodegeneration with brain iron accumulation (NBIA). INAD is a severe progressive psychomotor disorder in which axonal spheroids are found in brain, spinal cord, and peripheral nerves. High globus pallidus i...
متن کاملVariability of lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2 measurements.
We read with interest the recent report in this journal by Khuseyinova and colleagues regarding the variability of serial lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2 (Lp-PLA2) measurements in postmyocardial infarction patients (1). Because Lp-PLA2 plays a role in inflammation but, unlike other inflammatory proteins , is not an acute-phase reactant (2), nonspecificity issues associated with acute-ph...

متن کاملPhospholipase A2 in cnidaria.
Phospholipase A2 (PLA2) is an enzyme present in snake and other venoms and body fluids. We measured PLA2 catalytic activity in tissue homogenates of 22 species representing the classes Anthozoa, Hydrozoa, Scyphozoa and Cubozoa of the phylum Cnidaria. High PLA2 levels were found in the hydrozoan fire coral Millepora sp. (median 735 U/g protein) and the stony coral Pocillopora damicornis (693 U/g...
