Bone homeostasis mainly depends on the equilibrium of osteoclasts and osteoblasts, overactivated osteoclasts play a pivotal role in the progression of osteoporosis. Here, we revealed that Pla2g7 (phospholipase A2 group VII) was positively correlated with bone resorption in clinic. By single-cell ...
Arachidonic and adrenic acids in the membrane play key roles in ferroptosis, but how these fatty acids are manipulated in cells is largely unknown. Here, we reveal that lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2 (Lp-PLA2) controls intracellular phospholipid metabolism and contributes to ferroptosis res...
Snake venom inhibitors have been studied for over a century. Among them are the plasma proteins of some mammals and of non-venomous and venomous snakes, which have the ability to promote resistance to the venom. These proteins have aroused biotechnological interest, as they are an excellent alternat...
In this study, we have compared relative activities of different PLA2 enzymes by analyzing cleavage of OxPAPC and OxPAPE by diluted plasma in the presence of enzyme inhibitors.
