Group 1B phospholipase A2 in metabolic and inflammatory disease modulation.


ABSTRACT: The group 1B phospholipase A2 (PLA2G1B) is a secreted phospholipase that catalyzes the hydrolytic removal of the sn-2 fatty acyl moiety from phospholipids. This enzyme is synthesized most abundantly in the pancreas and is also expressed in the lung. The first part of this review article focuses on the role of pancreatic-derived PLA2G1B in mediating lipid absorption and discusses how the PLA2G1B-derived metabolic product contributes to cardiometabolic diseases, including obesity, hyperinsulinemia, hyperlipidemia, and atherosclerosis. The anti-helminth properties of PLA2G1B will also be discussed. The second part of this review will focus on PLA2G1B expressed in the lung, and in vitro data suggest that how this enzyme may modulate lung inflammation via both hydrolytic activity-dependent and -dependent mechanisms. Finally, recent studies revealing a relationship between PLA2G1B and cancer will also be discussed. This article is part of a Special Issue entitled Novel functions of phospholipase A2 Guest Editors: Makoto Murakami and Gerard Lambeau.
